In an interview with Chuck Carroll on The Turnbuckle Weekly, WWE Superstar Chris Jericho commented on working for the WWE on a full-time basis, his relationship with Vince McMahon and more.
Highlights of the interview are below:
On the potential of working for the WWE on a full-time basis: “Over the last 4 or 5 years my schedules and dates surround Fozzy and WWE has kind of been not as much of a priority. I still love doing it, but I realize it’s not something I’m going to be doing forever, I realized that years ago. To go back for the European shows, Roman Reigns got hurt, there was some injuries and I always enjoy working overseas, so it’s kind of just a quick little run, other than that I don’t know. When this Fozzy tour ends, whenever that may be, if I have time available and the WWE has something interesting for me to do, it’s not like they’re just sitting around waiting for Chris Jericho to come back, there have been times, I was going to go back for WrestleMania 30, but we couldn’t figure out anything for me to do that was worthy of that.”
On his relationship with Vince McMahon: “Yes, there is a lot of confrontations with Vince, but that’s because there’s a mutual respect and some of them get out of control, it’s only because both of us respect each other, trust each other and believe each other, it doesn’t mean I’m always going to like the things he does or the things he wants to do and it doesn’t mean that he’s going to like the things that I do and the way that I act and react to things either.”
