Chris Jericho comments on his match against Konosuke Takeshita.
Chris Jericho battled Konosuke Takeshita at DDT Ultimate Party in Jericho's return to Japan. Jericho and Takeshita had been feuding on AEW television as part of Jericho's battle with the Don Callis Family. Jericho was victorious at DDT Ultimate Party, submitting Takeshita with the Walls of Jericho.
Speaking on Talk Is Jericho, Chris reflected on the finish and fans being upset.
"I tapped him out, everybody was very surprised. This is a story that we're doing and the best way to do it was for me to win right out of the gate. Is it the last match Takeshita and I are going to have? Of course not. Was it a great way to re-establish myself in Japan and establish myself in DDT? Absolutely, it was the right why to go. Nobody loses when you have a match like that. It was a great contest all across the board," he said.
