Chris Jericho AEW Return: What We Know About His Comeback, WWE Rumors and What Happens Next

TLDR

Chris Jericho returned to AEW on the April 1 show in his hometown of Winnipeg after months of WWE rumors and contract speculation. His comeback ended talk that he might jump to WWE, which had intensified after WWE filed a trademark for "Cornerstone" and used the phrase "Break the Walls Down" on television programming. Jericho had been away from wrestling since losing the ROH Championship to Bandido at Dynasty on April 6, with Tony Khan reportedly extending his contract to account for time missed due to acting work.
