AEW star “The Learning Tree” Chris Jericho appeared on this week’s episode of CMLL Informa, where he discussed a number of topics including the importance of creating new fans.
Jericho said, “It’s something I’ve done very well my whole career. Obviously, I have fans from 30 years ago, I have fans from ten years ago, I have fans from now. That’s how you continue to have longevity in this business is by creating new fans. It’s great to have people who have been with me for decades, but it’s also great to create new fans in 2024, and this match [against Mistico] continues to do that. It’s a great main event with two guys who have huge fan bases, and two guys who are known as a few of the best wrestlers to have ever been in the ring. That’s what’s called a dream match, and that’s what I’m excited about.”
On returning to Mexico for CMLL 91 Aniversario:
“I knew this match was going to be big, I knew the Anniversario is big, so it’s the perfect time for me to return to Mexico. I’m not surprised that it’s sold out because the match is huge, the night is huge, and my return is going to be huge as well.”
