On the latest edition of his Talk is Jericho podcast, Chris Jericho revealed that he was originally scheduled to face Seth Rollins at the recent WWE Night of Champions event, but the planned bout was later scrapped by Vince McMahon.

As seen at the event, the end result turned out to be Jericho vs. Randy Orton. Rollins vs. Roman Reigns was also scheduled for the event, but was scrapped as well as a result of Reigns having to undergo emergency hernia surgery the day before the show,.
