WWE’s Plans For A Chris Jericho Return

With Jericho potentially on his way back to WWE, there are a number of potential plans for the legendary star for if he reappears on Monday or Friday nights.

While there are plenty of new faces for Jericho to work with, such as names like Dominik Mysterio, LA Knight and Trick Williams, he also has the chance to run it back one more time with some former rivals such as CM Punk, Randy Orton or Cody Rhodes.

Naturally, with WWE wanting Jericho back for a retirement run, fans’ mind will gravitate towards a match with Gunther, who has made a character out of ending the career of a number of legendary WWE stars, such as Goldberg, John Cena and AJ Styles.

With Gunther currently without a match at WrestleMania, we could end up seeing Jericho make his return to confront the ‘Career Killer’ if he’s cleared to do so come WrestleMania.
