Given Chris Jericho's recent habit of picking up a fight with almost anyone in the world, we won't be surprised if Y2J challenges Cain Velasquez for his debut match at TripleMania. Jericho is a three-decade veteran of the squared circle who has reinvented himself time and time again. Jericho is the personification of an old wine as the former IWGP Intercontinental Champion has only gotten better with age.

Jericho has proved that age is just a number and at a time when most wrestlers look to wind up their career or end up becoming a nostalgia act, the self-proclaimed Painmaker shows no signs of slowing down even at the age of 48. Y2J is currently scheduled for two high profile matches in the coming months. He will Kenny Omega at AEW's Double or Nothing on May 25 and will also go up against Kazuchika Okada for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at New Japan's Dominion show on June 9.

Jericho is known to be one of the safest hands inside the squared circle. He is also one of the most giving performers in the business who can make his opponent look like a million bucks. Jericho Vs Velasquez has money written all over, we just hope that both AEW and AAA are listening.
