Chris Jericho Discusses How He And Top AEW Star Will Be Involved With Winnipeg Show AEW

Chris Jericho has discussed how he and a top AEW star will be involved with the upcoming Winnipeg show for the company.

On March 15, All Elite Wrestling will debut in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada with AEW Dynamite.

With Chris Jericho working with AEW creative, he believes he has a hit idea for the promotion’s debut show in his hometown of Winnipeg.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Jericho was asked what keeps him going at this stage of his career. He answered:

“Creatively, I’m very involved, but more importantly, it’s a creative passion that I have, not just for my stuff, but if I can help other people’s stuff, working closely with Tony Khan on that sort of thing. That, to me, is what keeps me going,”

Talking about his plans for the Winnipeg debut and wanting to work with former AEW World Champion and current AEW World Trios Champion Kenny Omega, Jericho stated:

“I was just talking about a show we have coming up in Winnipeg, and the crux of AEW basically started from three guys in Winnipeg. Tokyo Dome; Jericho vs. Omega, that was basically brokered by Don Callis.”

“Here we are, going back to Winnipeg, Jericho and Omega, there is a little bit of a legend between us, we have to be involved in some way.”

“We were thinking about how we were going to do this and we came up with something yesterday that was really exciting to me I was up all night thinking about it, how fun it might be and how cool it’s going to be.”

Jericho has stated in the past that he would love to team up with Omega at the Winnipeg event, so it remains to be seen if that is his idea.

Up next for AEW is the Revolution pay-per-view on March 5. Chris Jericho is scheduled to face Ricky Starks with the Jericho Appreciation Society banned from ringside.

Meanwhile, Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks of The Elite seem set to take on House of Black for the AEW World Trios Championships.
