In case you didn't know...

Chris Jericho signed a contract with All Elite Wrestling earlier this year. According to Jericho, this was "the best deal of his life" and something he just couldn't refuse. Over the next several months, Jericho promoted AEW's first show, Double or Nothing. The show featured him taking on longtime nemesis Kenny Omega in the main event of the night.

Additionally, Jericho is still friends with a bunch of WWE Superstars and was recently seen hanging out with SmackDown Live Superstar Xavier Woods on a plane.

On the other hand, Sheamus recently changed his look and was seen sporting a new hairstyle. Sheamus was wearing a referee T-shirt, hinting that he might have been filming a shot or two for WWE's Main Event movie, which is being produced in association with Netflix.
