Tony Khan finally gave an update on Chris Jericho's status in AEW

Chris Jericho's status in AEW has become a topic of discussion among fans and critics, especially since the former World Champion has been absent from TV for the past couple of months. Many people have speculated that Jericho could return to WWE. There have also been reports that the Stamford-based promotion is interested in re-signing him. Jericho has also kept the rumor mill spinning by posting clips and pictures from his time in WWE.

During a recent interview on The Torg & Elliott Show, Tony Khan was asked about the former AEW World Champion's status. The AEW boss asked fans to stay tuned to the show to see if Jericho returns, since that is one of the big reasons people watch wrestling.

“Well, I think you got to stay tuned to the show. That’s one of the reasons you watch the wrestling show is to see the returns, and we just talked at the beginning of the call about, you know, keeping secrets and stuff like that, so I think stay tuned," he said. [H/T - Ringside News]

It will be interesting to see what the future holds for Chris Jericho.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker.
