Real Reason Colt Cabana Was Brought Back For Chris Jericho ROH Title Bout

AEW

Chris Jericho has revealed the reason that a wrestler was brought back to AEW amongst other decisions around the ROH title picture.

On the Talk is Jericho podcast, Jericho spoke about the return of Colt Cabana on the November 2 episode of AEW Dynamite, Jericho explaining:

“We wanted to bring Colt back on the show, reintroduce him, he had a pretty rough year as well.

“Former Ring of Honor champion, and I always enjoyed his work.

“A very solid worker and it was fun to have him back.

“That’s the reason why he came back, solely, we just wanted to have him on the show and reintroduce him.

“He hadn’t been on TV for a while.” 

Jericho would go on to recount the story of a poor wardrobe choice that caused Cabana issues, saying:

“The funny thing was, he told the story where he almost died.

“He bought the wrong kind of socks, he bought compression socks instead of normal socks and I guess it was limiting his blood flow to where, when he came back from the ring, he was about ready to pass out.”

Cabana had previously discussed how serious the incident could have been.
