The heart of the matter
Chris Jericho responded to a question that was picked out of the BTE mailbag which referenced CM Punk’s recent revelation that he was offered a contract via text message. Here’s how he responded.
(H/T Sportskeeda for the transcription)
He explains that the contract was negotiated and the deal was made. He also said that everything in AEW that is good, is because of him and anything bad has nothing to do with him. He also said he’s busy doing all his charity work for the people of Zanzibar and building new shacks for the kids over there.
You can check out his answer at the 9:40 mark.
What’s next?
Chris Jericho is in top form when he’s a heel and his in-character answer is priceless. By even taking the question, it’s quite obvious that this was a jibe/shot at CM Punk. Will the Voice of the Voiceless show up at AEW All Out? I guess the fans will have to keep speculating till it actually happens.
