AEW star Chris Jericho has named the other stars in the company that he would rather not face off against.
Chris Jericho has faced off against many names across many generations in his 30 year wrestling career, but there are still a number of current AEW stars that he has yet to lock up with.
Speaking to the Dallas Morning News, Jericho was asked about any potential matches he was still hoping to have, noting that there is really no rush to get to those matches, but there are some names that he has faced off with ‘many times’ that he would rather not face again.
Specifically, Jericho named his old friends Adam Copeland and Christian Cage as two wrestlers that he would rather not face.
He said:
“There’s no timeline on what I’m doing. So there’s really, probably no rush. I have a different opinion. I’ve wrestled Adam Copeland so many times and Christian so many times that I would rather not wrestle against those guys. I mean, obviously, we could and have a great match. But I really enjoy working with kind of everybody that I haven’t worked with before.”
Jericho is currently a part of the Golden Jets team with Kenny Omega on the show, but he went on to list off other AEW names that he does hope to face in the future.
He said:
“I think Swerve Strickland is amazing. I think Mark Briscoe is amazing, just off the top of my head of guys I’ve never stepped in the ring with. Both of those guys would be a lot of fun to have matches with, you know. So I think right now, that’s kind of a cool place to be looking at.
“But we’ve got a lot of stuff going on with the Golden Jets with Big Bill and Ricky Starks, and Will Hobbs and Takeshita. … And I’d love to have a match with FTR. That’d be great. I’ve never done a tag team match against them before. I think Jets versus FTR would be amazing. So there’s kind of a lot of matches in the chamber that you could have with Kenny and I before we decide to go to the next step.”
Jericho is set to team with Kenny Omega to face Ricky Starks and Big Bill for the AEW World Tag Team Championship at Worlds End on December 30.
