Jericho: “I think our roster is the best in the business”
During an interview with TVInsider.com, Chris Jericho commented on the state of AEW in 2025. Here is what Jericho had to say…
“I think we’ve done a good job reconfiguring the buildings the last few weeks. I feel the crowds have been much hotter in these smaller buildings. I mean, listen, I don’t think it matters how big the venue is. It matters how hot the crowd is. We saw the Hammerstein Ballroom had an amazing look. A great energy. The same thing happened the last few weeks in Charlotte and Athens, Georgia. There is so much importance on television revenue in this day and age with AEW getting its new deal with Warner Brothers Discovery.
That’s nothing but pure success and pure profit. There might be some naysayers that may want to predict the doom of AEW because of smaller buildings, but it’s smart business. I think the product is much hotter now because the crowds are hotter. It’s all indicative. We’re excited to go to Australia for show there. We’re excited for Texas in July [for All In], which is seven months away. There are people saying, ‘Well, they only sold 10,000 tickets.’ Yeah, it’s seven months away. We’re going to have 25,000 people in that place. People buy tickets during the last week nowadays. Trust me, I know from Fozzy. I think there are a lot of positives. I think our wrestling is the best in the business. I think our roster is the best in the business. There are other things we can work on, but that’s any company. I’m very happy and proud of where we are right now as a company.”
Quantity doesn’t equal quality. Jericho has taken one too many shots to the head me thinks.
He really needs to consider retiring sooner than later. Arena Empty Wrestling might be the only thing worst than Women’s wrestling as a whole
Of course your roster’s the best in the business, Chris. The majority are former WWE talent. LOL
I respect him for all of his donations and support to president Trump, but he needs to stop wasting his time in this indy promotion and return to the big leagues.

You disrespectful piece of human sewage, how dare you not capitalize “President Trump”?
It’s not the roster that’s the problem. Give Tony Khan the present day Dodgers and they’ll lose more games than the 2024 White Sox.
