Chris Jericho has been all over the map over the last year or so, wrestling in WWE, New Japan and making a surprise appearance at the independent ‘All In’ show.
While it seems like pretty much anything could come next for Jericho, his status with WWE isn’t exactly clear, which he thinks is perfectly fine. Speaking on SiriusXM’s Busted Open radio, Jericho opened up about his free agent status and just how much he’s enjoying the flexibility in his schedule.
“In WWE when you work there, once again, you gotta go with whatever it is that he wants to go with,” Jericho said. “That’s fine. When you work for Vince that’s just the way it is, but it’s fun to not work for Vince right now, and have some of these other ideas you can kind of explore.”
Before this year, it was hard to remember a time when Jericho last performed outside of a WWE ring. He worked sporadically in WWE until July 2017 before he showed up in NJPW and attacked Kenny Omega to set up a tilt at Wrestle Kingdom 12 in January. He later returned to WWE at the Greatest Royal Rumble and shortly after returned to NJPW to set up a match with Tetsuya Naito, where he eventually won the IWGP Intercontinental title.
Who knows where Jericho will show up next, but wherever it is, it’ll be on his terms.
