Chris Jericho has referred to AEW as "my company".

The current ROH World Champion told Variety that he wanted to stay and help All Elite Wrestling grow. That's why Jericho signed a lucrative new contract with Tony Khan - 'The Ocho' knows his value, put it that way. His new deal includes roles as a producer and creative advisor for young talent.

Jericho went on to say that he feels like he has AEW "tattooed on [his] heart" at this point in his career. He was there when the organisation launched in 2019, and he's watched it both flourish and go through growing pains ever since.

Now, the legend wants to help take All Elite to that next level.

Jericho's wording during the interview was interesting (to say the least). He told Joe Otterson: "I really do feel that this is my company". Where's that .GIF of Tony Khan looking around all puzzled from the post-All Out press conference when you need it?!

Seriously though, Khan will likely be chuffed to hear Jericho speak so passionately about AEW. When asked why he decided to stay, Jericho replied: "Why not?".
