Chris Jericho’s Continued Presence on AEW's Roster Page: What You Need to Know
It may come as a surprise to some, but Chris Jericho remains listed on the AEW roster page simply because he is still an active employee of the company. Over the past few months, there has been much chatter regarding Jericho’s future, with many speculating that his contract with AEW would come to an end in December 2025. In fact, when Jericho re-signed with AEW back in October 2022, it was officially announced that his deal would wrap up at the end of 2025.
Understanding the Contract Situation
Despite the speculation about his impending departure, Jericho continues to be featured on AEW's roster page, positioned between fellow wrestlers Cash Wheeler and Christian Cage. According to the latest reports from Fightful Select, Jericho is still very much under contract with AEW. The reason behind the apparent discrepancy surrounding his contract expiration date remains unclear. This development also sheds light on why Jericho hasn’t made any appearances on WWE programming; he is still tied to AEW and could only collaborate with WWE if both parties agree.
WWE's Interest and Jericho's Potential Future
There has been significant interest from WWE regarding Jericho should he become available as a free agent. Jericho has been a part of the AEW roster since its inception in 2019 and even held the title of the inaugural AEW World Champion. His wrestling career prior to AEW saw him actively involved with WWE during multiple stints from 1999 until 2018.
What’s Next for Jericho?
Looking ahead, Chris Jericho has a packed schedule as his band Fozzy is set to kick off their UK tour, starting on February 6 in Brighton. The band plans to perform 13 shows across various locations, concluding their tour on February 21 in Wolverhampton.
