Chris Jericho returns to AEW after a year out

Chris Jericho made his return to AEW last night on Dynamite, a year after his last appearance for the company.

Jericho, decked in a shiny purple jacket, came out and interrupted Tony Schiavone’s introduction of the AEW World title contract signing between MJF and Kenny Omega.

The hometown crowd sang along to the Judas theme song and Jericho made his way to the ring. He then stopped to take in all the cheers from Winnipeg.

Jericho had a mic in his hand but his words were short and sweet.

“Winnipeg, I’m home,” Jericho said, before going back.

His return was highly speculated during the day as it was revealed that he had negotiated a way back to the company.

He was rumored to be going to WWE in the beginning of the year but news came out that his contract was extended to cover his time away from AEW.

Jericho filed a trademark for the term The Cornerstone last week, suggesting that it was his return gimmick.
