Chris Jericho has the resume of a WWE Hall of Famer, being the first-ever WWE Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion, holding the WWE Intercontinental Championship on nine occasions, and being a multi-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
Jericho is still active in AEW, but if the WWE Hall of Fame came calling, would he accept the induction?
"I'm not one of those guys who cares about the Hall of Fame because I don't think it's really real anyway. In some ways, it's like, 'Eh, whatever.' In other ways, I want to pull a Sex Pistols and just refuse to show up. Send a letter saying, 'Do not mention my name,' like Axl Rose did. What a great wrestling thing to do. It doesn't matter to me, it really doesn't. It's great that guys go in there and I'm glad they get a chance to, but I'm already a Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame is up here [points to head]. It's more for the fans. At this point in time, I could get put in the Hall of Fame and maybe get booed out of the building. We'll see what happens. For right here, right now, I'm enjoying what I'm still doing and I definitely wouldn't go in the Hall of Fame if I'm still actively performing in the ring. We'll see where it goes. For right now, I feel good, I'm doing great work, and when I feel it's time to hang up the boots, I will do so. Until then, I'm enjoying being part of the business, as I always have for the last 34 years," he told the Toronto Sun.
Jericho is the reigning ROH World Champion.
