Chris Jericho: “If I Never Wrestled Again It Wouldn’t Bother Me”

Chris Jericho is out on the road with his band Fozzy as well as promoting his new book "No Is A Four Letter Word," and he dropped by The Other Guys podcast to talk about all of that, plus his wrestling career, from which he has taken a possibly permanent break.

"Will I be back? Maybe, possibly," Jericho said. "If I never wrestled again it wouldn't bother me."

When asked if there was a certain person he'd like to work with and if that would get him to agree to a return, he answered:

"I don't care about who I work with, for me it's the story behind (the feud) because I've worked with everybody," Jericho said. "It's about what's the storyline that you can put behind these things to make people really care."

Jericho said he really loved working with Kevin Owens, both as friends and as foes, during his latest run, and would be looking for a storyline as rich and fulfilling as that one if he were to come back to WWE. And in case you didn't get it the first time, he REALLY doesn't care who he works with, as long as the story is good.

"If I can think of a good story or if a good story is presented to me, then I'm all in, and I don't care if it's with John Cena or if it's with Enzo Amore, whoever," Jericho said. "If it's a good storyline that I can sink my teeth into that I know people will love, just like the Festival of Friendship, then I'll come back again. If not, then it might be a little harder to attract me."

Jericho made a one-night-only return to SmackDown to get his rematch for the US Title after Battleground, and wound up taking the pinfall in a triple threat match also featuring AJ Styles, who was able to reclaim the title that night.
