"Honored to have worked with him and call him a friend" – Former AEW World Champion sends heartfelt message to The Undertaker

Former AEW World Champion Chris Jericho sent a heartfelt congratulatory message to The Undertaker upon his inclusion in the WWE Hall of Fame.

The Deadman will get inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2022 alongside Vader, Queen Sharmell, and the Steiner Brothers (Rick & Scott Steiner). In addition to these legends, Shad Gaspard will receive the Warrior Award for his contributions outside the ring.

Chris Jericho is a wrestling legend in his own right. Despite being in AEW, he appreciates and respects The Undertaker and his contributions to the business. Taking to Twitter, the leader of the Jericho Appreciation Society said the following:

The Phenom has a legacy in WWE unlikely ever to be toppled. He's been a part of the business for nearly three decades and has produced countless moments and matches. His inclusion in the Hall of Fame will be one of the biggest inductions in recent memory. It's no surprise Vince McMahon himself will induct the four-time WWE Champion.
