Aew Rumors Update On Njpw Wrestler Possibly Challenging Chris Jericho For World Title

But Cage Side Seats are reporting that there is zero belief that anything like that will happen. During the build up to this match, Jericho stated in an interview that he was more than willing to give Tanahashi a shot at his title. He said,

At the moment, the possibility of this happening is slim to none. The relationship between NJPW and AEW is not a working one. Stars like Jericho and Jon Moxley are able to compete in NJPW as it was written in their contracts.

It was also said that Kenny Omega wanted a working relationship between the two companies as it would have allowed more crossover matches. But so far, that hasn’t happened.

It’s unclear where this all goes from here. In professional wrestling, things are constantly in motion and a year from now, things might be very different. Right now, AEW are partners with AAA where Omega is the current AAA Mega Champion.
