Chris Jericho was interviewed by Busted Open Radio yesterday and among other things, said that he had an “amicable” conversation with Vince McMahon about his potential signing with AEW.
“A lot of that stuff is private but I did have a very amicable conversation with him. He knew it, he knew what I was doing. It was not a surprise. I didn’t just show up in Jacksonville and that was it.
“When the offer came down from the Khans, WWE was very amicable in saying congratulations and go kick ass. So that’s basically what happened. Now once it happened, I don’t know what the reaction would be, but the last conversation I had was an amicable one, for sure.”
