Chris Jericho: I Think Vince McMahon Regrets Losing Me

Chris Jericho is in the midst of perhaps the best run of his career. The former AEW World Champion recently did an interview with the Tampa Bay Times where he discussed his relationship with WWE.

Here is the full quote:

“They’ll probably never mention me again,” Jericho said. “I don’t blame them. Why would they promote me in any way, shape or form, when I’m the head of this opposing army, in their opinion, that’s stealing money out of their pockets?

“I earned Vince’s trust, and it takes a long time to get his real trust. Moneymaking trust. … He’s never told me this, but indirectly, I think he regrets losing me, because I was one of his generals. I’m not always right, but f— if I’m not close 80 percent of the time.”

Jericho last appeared for WWE at the Greatest Royal Rumble in 2018. He has made regular appearances with New Japan Pro Wrestling and All Elite Wrestling since then and WWE has stopped mentioning him on their programming.

Jericho has discussed his relationship with Vince McMahon in each of his books. It remains to be seen if they will ever work together again but Jericho will continue to be under contract with AEW for the foreseeable future.
