Chris Jericho was a guest on Busted Open Radio this week. During the interview, Jericho spoke about his decision to sign with All Elite Wrestling (AEW).
Specifically, Jericho was asked if Vince knew about his decision to sign with AEW.
Here is what Jericho said (h/t to Ringside News for the quotes below):
“A lot of that stuff is private but I did have a very
conversation with him. He knew what I was doing, it wasn’t a surprise. I didn’t just show up in Jacksonville and that was it. amincable The bottom line is the Khan family isn’t messing around. They want to make a go at this and you know they have a lot of money and they have a lot of capital.”
Looks like we can put to bed the rumor that Vince was blindsided by the announcement.
On a related note, here are several WWE stars who we think could realistically make the jump to All Elite Wrestling.
