6. Chris Jericho
How many matches did thirty-year veteran Chris Jericho wrestle in 2018? 20? 10? Try only three!
Yes, Jericho only worked three wrestling matches in the entirety of last year (though he did make appearances at wrestling shows and did some promo work.) Still, he was one of the most talked about and sought-after talents in the game. After appearing at the Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia, he then surprisingly started menacing New Japan Pro star Kenny Omega, and then Naito.
Chris Jericho would be a real coup for All Elite Wrestling if they can convince him to sign.
Chances of him signing with All Elite Wrestling: We'd have to say about 10%, and that's being generous. Jericho may have lost the IWGP Intercontinental title, but now he's gunning for the IWGP World Title now held by Tanahashi. Jericho enjoys working on his own schedule, and of course, he has dipped his toe in the promoter pool with his wrestling cruise, which was a tremendous success. AEW would have to offer him a lot, financially and otherwise, to get him to sign on the dotted line.
