Former AEW World Champion Chris Jericho has been wrestling for over 30 years, and he does not intend to retire soon.
Jericho, 53, has been with AEW since 2019, and he remains a featured member of the roster. With over three decades behind him, he has made it clear that he still enjoys what he does, and he believes he can still perform at a high level.
During a Q&A at his Rock N Wrestling Rager at Sea cruise, which was recorded in January, Chris Jericho stated that he had no interest or reason to retire yet. He also noted that Sting kept wrestling into his 60s. (H/t Skylar Russell of Fightful for the transcription)
“AEW really did save my perspective of wrestling and really kind of, like I said, reinvigorated my career to where I have no interest or reason to retire as of yet because I still enjoy it, I still love what I do, and I still feel that I can still do it a high level. I can still have the best match of the night on any given night, not every night, but any given night
“I can. To me, that means a lot and you guys all seem to love it and appreciate what we do. My retirement match will be whatever storyline we have when that moment comes, it could be tomorrow, it could be ten years. I mean, Sting is freaking 65 and he’s retiring in a couple months. I could still have some time left.”
Jericho recently lost to HOOK on the March 20 episode of AEW Dynamite.
