Chris Jericho On Potentially Returning To WWE: You Never Know

Chris Jericho stays mum on a potential WWE return.

Chris Jericho hasn’t been on AEW television since April when he expressed his disappointment in Big Bill & Bryan Keith before walking out on them.

His contract with AEW is up at the end of the year, and there has been much speculation as to his next move.

On Saturday night, Jericho went live on his YouTube channel for a Christmas Dinner With The Winnipeggers special, which took place during AEW Worlds End.

A fan sent in a message saying they watched Jericho’s 1999 debut at their grandma’s house and hoped he would return to WWE.

Jericho replied, “You never know. You never know.” 

Ahead of Worlds End, Fightful Select reported that Jericho’s name hasn’t come up when discussing ongoing plans in AEW.

In an interview earlier in December, Jericho was asked about his future in wrestling. He replied, ” I’m not done yet. Still figuring out everything and we’ll see where I end up. I’m pretty sure you’ll see me in 2026 in a wrestling ring somewhere.”

Jericho has been with AEW since the start of the company, and the Young Bucks (Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) have called him a founding father.
