Tony Khan puts over one of the biggest stars in AEW as having a career year in the promotion.
Chris Jericho has been up to a lot this year. Feuding with Eddie Kingston for much of the year and then moving on to a familiar foe in Bryan Danielson, who has also turned Daniel Garcia against him. Jericho is having some of the best matches of his career as he has also captured the Ring Of Honor World Championship.
Speaking on My Mom’s Basement with Robbie Fox, Khan shared his belief that Jericho his having the best year of his career, and he should be considered in conversations about AEW’s MVP.
“In addition to MOX, who’s such a great champion, and has been an amazing top guy for us this year, Chris Jericho is having the best year of his career. So I think if Chris Jericho was having the best year of his career, then you have to consider Chris Jericho for the MVP, too, and he’s the other world champion in AEW right now. He’s the Ring of Honor World Champion — or the Ring of Jericho World Champion. It’s the eighth World Championship for Chris Jericho. I’ve been watching Chris Jericho for over 27 years, going on 28 years now. He’s one of my favorite wrestlers of all time and it wasn’t me saying this,”
