When All Elite Wrestling was officially announced in January of 2019 Chris Jericho wasted no time letting people know that he had signed a deal with the company.
Jericho has since gone on to become the first ever AEW World Champion, and it seems that his run with the company has been a success so far.
Le Champion recently spoke to Tampa Bay Times about the current state of his career, and he noted that he thinks Vince McMahon regrets losing him.
“Am I hard to work with? Maybe to somebody who’s used to working with yes men, and people that just want to get along, yes. If you’re looking for somebody that’s going to do his utmost best to get the job done right, to put on the best possible program and best possible story line at the risk of hurting people’s feelings? Then yes, I’m hard to deal with.”
“I earned Vince’s trust. And it takes a long time to get his real trust. Moneymaking trust. … He’s never told me this, but indirectly, I think he regrets losing me, because I was one of his generals. I’m not always right, but f–k if I’m not close 80 percent of the time.”
