Taking to Instagram, Jericho shared the card for a live event from May 5, 2002, the final show ever held under the WWF name.

He wrote:

Here’s a FUN FACT! I just found out that the very last #WWF show EVER on May 5, 2002 was headlined by #ChrisJericho vs @hulkhogan for the WWF Championship! If you would’ve told a 16 year old me that this was gonna happen I would’ve laughed in your face and probably quoted a Hogan promo from Saturday Nights Main Event! Life is amazing sometimes… @wwe

Jericho is now competing in AEW, with he and Kenny Omega set to challenge Big Bill and Ricky Starks for the AEW World Tag Team Championship at AEW Worlds End.
