Adam Pearce Hints At Chris Jericho Appearance On WWE Raw: Who Can Break Down The Walls?

After an episode of Friday Night Smackdown full of returns and debuts, Monday Night Raw GM Adam Pearce dropped a huge hint when it comes to Chris Jericho returning to WWE.

Not one, not two, but three title matches headline the first episode of Raw in 2026. WWE and Stranger Things are in conjunction to make this a can’t miss episode, one that may see Chris Jericho make his long awaited WWE return.

“Do not forget, three humongous championship matches,” Pearce said. “Who can break down the walls and claim the gold?”

The one-year anniversary of Raw on Netflix is set to be a loaded show top to bottom as Liv Morgan also makes her in-ring return. There has been much speculation as to Jericho’s contract status with AEW, but this is the first time WWE has made a direct reference that sparked much speculation about his impending return.
