While fans continue speculating about a surprise return at Royal Rumble 2026, Chris Jericho just revealed what hes actually been up toand it technically involves a pro wrestling ring.
On January 31, 2026, Jericho took to Instagram and revealed that hes part of the upcoming Apple TV series Margos Got Money Troubles, starring Nicole Kidman, Elle Fanning and Nick Offerman. The show, based on the acclaimed novel of the same name, blends themes of pro wrestling, OnlyFans, and family struggles, with Jericho appearing in a wrestling-focused role.
This comes after major speculation about Jerichos wrestling future. His AEW contract reportedly expired on December 31, 2025, and many had pegged him as a possible surprise entrant in the 2026 WWE Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia. But between his filming schedule and Fozzys Eyes On You tour kicking off in February, Jerichos calendar looks far too packed for a full-time wrestling return anytime soon.
Still, the fact that hes portraying a wrestler in a major series suggests Jericho isnt finished with the squared circlehes just telling the story from a new angle.
