Tony Khan isnt ready to let go of Chris Jericho just yet.
With speculation heating up about Jericho possibly returning to WWE for one last run, the AEW boss made it clear during a recent radio interview that hes still holding out hope for a reunion in his own company.
Speaking to The Torg and Elliott Show this week, Khan reaffirmed his admiration for Jericho and teased that fans may not have to wait much longer to see the Demo God back on AEW programming.
When asked directly if Jericho will return to the AEW ring, Khan gave a classic promoter-style response that leaves the door wide open.
Jericho has been absent from AEW programming since April after receiving mixed reactions from fans. He reportedly took time off to reset during a turbulent chapter in his run. His contract is set to expire at the end of the year, adding fuel to the WWE speculation fire.
Still, the 54-year-old addressed the WWE rumors in a recent chat with the Daily Mail, making it clear hes open to possibilities but staying rootedfor now.
If AEW and WWE are the two teams, it sounds like Jericho isnt ready to commit to either locker room for the long haul. But with Khan making public plays and Jericho playing both sides like a pro, its safe to say the game is far from over.
