Chris Jericho Says He Has Four Acting Projects “In The Can”

As noted before, Chris Jericho’s contract with AEW was believed to have expired at the end of 2025 and he has been absent from the company since this past April. Jericho has been rumored to be returning to WWE soon.

Loaded Magazine held a recent interview with Jericho. One of the topics discussed included Jericho’s thoughts about his current dream goal of doing more acting for his acting career and revealed that he currently has four acting projects “in the can.”

“I’d like to do more acting. If you can make it to a high level in wrestling- and I think I have- and you’re playing a character, that’s acting. I have about four acting projects in the can, waiting to go at the moment.”

Jericho also gave his thoughts about his proudest moments of his show business career.

“If I had to pinpoint anything…headlining the Tokyo Dome with Kenny Omega, starting AEW and seeing it become such a success, stealing the show with Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania XIX and drawing 1,000 tickets for the first time in Nottingham.
What I do also makes other people happy, and that’s important. Giving them lifelong memories that help them to forget about their troubles for a moment, and helping them to chase their dreams.
That means a lot to me.”
