Chris Jericho isn’t planning to leave AEW anytime soon, despite speculation about his future in wrestling.

During an interview with ComicBook.com, Jericho addressed those rumors and made it clear he’s happy right where he is — in AEW. When asked by Chris Killian about a possible WWE comeback, Jericho said, “I enjoyed working there in the past, and I can probably work there in the future as well. We’ll see.”

However, Jericho emphasized how much he enjoys working with AEW and the Khan family. He noted, “We did what we set out to do, which was to change the course of wrestling history,” referring to AEW’s rapid rise as a major force in the industry. With the company’s new TV deal and financial success, Jericho sees no reason to go elsewhere. He added, “I’m happy, and there’s really no reason for me to go anywhere else right now.”

It seems Jericho is fully committed to staying in AEW for the foreseeable future, leaving fans to continue watching him make waves in the ring.
