Chris Jericho's Weekend Plans: A Tale of Two Cities
The wrestling world has been abuzz with rumors of a potential Chris Jericho appearance at WWE's Saturday Night Main Event in Montreal. But here's where it gets controversial: Jericho's musical commitments have him booked across the country, leaving fans wondering if they'll ever see the legend in his home country.
According to PWInsider, Jericho is set to perform with his band at the NAMM Show in Anaheim, California, on Friday, January 23rd. This performance is part of the annual National Association of Music Merchants gathering, and it seems Jericho's musical endeavors will keep him away from the WWE ring this weekend.
A Scheduling Conflict Arises
PWInsider further reports that Jericho is expected to stay at the NAMM convention throughout the weekend, which means he'll be in Los Angeles during WWE's events in Montreal. Unless there's a dramatic change of plans, it looks like Jericho won't be making an appearance at Smackdown or Saturday Night Main Event.
This news comes at a time when Jericho's wrestling future is a hot topic. With his AEW contract expiring at the end of 2025, the industry is speculating about a potential WWE return. However, it appears his musical passion takes precedence this weekend.
And this is the part most people miss... Jericho's commitment to his band and the NAMM Show highlights the diverse interests of wrestling legends. It's a reminder that these athletes have lives beyond the ring, and their passions extend far and wide. So, while we may not see Jericho in Montreal, we can still appreciate his dedication to music and the arts.
