During the latest episode of his podcast Talk is Jericho, Chris Jericho discussed WWE Chairman Vince McMahon’s reaction you him joining AEW. 

Here’s what Jericho has to say: 

"I'm not in AEW because I was a rebel," Jericho admitted. "I'm with AEW because Vince went, 'go.' And then, when I went, he went, 'did you sign the contract?' I said, 'well, yeah.' He said, 'can you get out of it?' 'No! You told me to sign it!'"

Jericho also compared his career decision to Scott Hall’s move from WWE to WCW.

"But [McMahon] had the opportunity to stop it like he did with [Hall], which is very interesting to me because 23 years later, he made the same [mistake]." Jericho added, "I love Vince."
