"One of the most low-key positives of HHH (Triple H) taking over" - Twitter reacts to 8-time world champion shutting the door on a WWE return

The wrestling world is seemingly happy that a former WWE World Heavyweight Champion has ruled out a return to the Stamford-based promotion. The star is none other than Chris Jericho.The AEW star has not been a part of WWE since 2019. He was one of the initial stars to sign with All Elite Wrestling. Since then, he has showcased different characters and won the promotion's world title and the ROH World Championship.During a recent interview with the Daily Star, Chris Jericho mentioned that he no longer has any interest in returning to WWE and prefers to retire in AEW.&quot;To me, that’s not ‘the place to be.’ AEW is the place to be. It really is. I’ve been in WWE. I know how it works. They work that way, I don’t care if Vince is there, Hunter is there, or whoever is there. They have a way of doing things, and I was there for 20 years and was pretty good at it. I like the way we do things at AEW better… so I don’t know why I wouldn’t want to finish my career in AEW,” Chris Jericho said.
