The first-ever AEW World champion looked back at his career, talking about how he\u2019s taken risks throughout. Some of those didn\u2019t work, but many did, like the decision to help start AEW. So he\u2019s back out of love for pro wrestling, and to help the company in anyway he can.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">But before he could sign his new contract, he was interrupted by The Demand. Ricochet put over Jericho, but not as much as he put over himself as he implored El Nuevo against coming back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jericho revealed that his contract would allow him to face whoever he chooses at Dynasty this Sunday, and while he botched a cheap pop mention of Edmonton Oilers star Connor McDavid (saying Conor McGregor instead), he got to his big finish. Ricochet just made The List!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Playing the hits should help Jericho as he works off bad vibes from his last AEW run, and works through cheers he\u2019d get from some upon returning no matter what kind of character he plays. Eventually he\u2019ll need to break out something new, though. For now, we\u2019ll see how he does with Ricochet this Sunday at Dynasty in Vancouver.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Somebody get Kevin Owens\u2019 reaction to The List\u2019s AEW debut, and get the internet\u2019s best play-by-play in Claire\u2019s Dynamite Live Blog <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cagesideseats.com\/aew\/431737\/aew-dynamite-results-live-discussion-apr-8-2026-jericho-speaks\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One week after his slightly-spoiled but still pretty-shocking return to AEW last week, Chris Jericho was back on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":573355,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[5894,231214,32087,88],"class_list":{"0":"post-573354","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-aew","9":"tag-aew-dynamite","10":"tag-dynasty","11":"tag-entertainment"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=573354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573354\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/573355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=573354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=573354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=573354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
