#1 Exact moment Chris Jericho decided to leave WWE
Trending
Chris Jericho often mentions in media interviews that his 2016-17 storyline on WWE RAW with Kevin Owens is one of the best of his career.
Cody Rhodes' uncle is a WWE Hall of Famer. More details HERE.
Speaking to various reporters after AEW’s first Double or Nothing event in May 2019, the nine-time WWE Intercontinental Champion revealed that the booking of his WrestleMania 33 match with Owens is what led to him leaving the company.
“In 2016, I had my best story angle with Kevin Owens and we ended up second on WrestleMania. That's when I knew I had to get out of here. That should have been the main event.”
The long-awaited Jericho vs. Owens match was due to take place in the main event of WrestleMania 33 at one stage, but Owens lost the Universal Championship to Goldberg at the Fastlane pay-per-view just four weeks before ‘Mania.
As a result, Jericho vs. Owens (United States Championship) went on second at WWE’s biggest show of the year, while Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar (Universal Championship) and Roman Reigns vs. The Undertaker (No Holds Barred main event) took place later in the night.
