Chris Jericho Comments On WWE Watching NJPW Closely

Chris Jericho previewed Wrestle Kingdom 13 on a recent episode of his podcast, Talk is Jericho.

During the podcast, Jericho made some comments about WWE watching NJPW closely. This comes after the NJPW and ROH Supershow sold out Madison Square Garden on Wrestlemania 35 weekend.

Here is what Jericho had to say (h/t to Fightful for the quotes below):

“WWE is watching. Anytime you have a company that can come into WWE’s backyard and sell out Madison Square Garden — you can spin it anyway you want to; it’s WrestleMania weekend — it doesn’t matter. They did something that WWE has not done in years.

They tried to block this show and it didn’t work out. When you’re talking about a company that has nationwide TV on AXS, it’s not NBC or USA, but it’s still funded by a billionaire, Mark Cuban. There is money there. WWE never takes anything like that lightly.”
