"Let me get something straight...I will never wrestle for the WWE again. But there is some big news coming up in the world of dance...."
This is a direct quote from Chris Jericho's twitter. It seems that his career as a in-ring performer is over. Didn't see this coming, honestly.
I don't know if this is a work, to trick the fans and make him comeback be more of a surprise than ever. But I do think that Jericho feels that he outgrew wrestling at least as a wrestler. Don't get me wrong, I believe Jericho loves the business, but he feels he can do work outside of the Pro Wrestling business and be very sucessful. I wish him the best of luck. I'm not sure if he is made to be a TV star or a Movie Star but at least he has the right to try it.
I will be the first to say this: we won't go to TNA. He has no interest in it. This doesn't mean: I hate WWE, I want to try another organization. This means: I won't wrestle again anywhere, not only World Wrestling Entertainment. Because I believe some people will jump and say that he is mad at WWE and go to TNA, or something like that, believe me, he won't. I would love to see it because I'm a huge TNA fan, but I don't believe it one bit.
So what do you think of this? Does this mean that Jericho if he returns will return only as a Manager/General-Manager/etc? Do you think this can only be kayfabe?
Are you surprised by this news?
