While Chris Jericho made an appearance at the Greatest Royal Rumble earlier this year, it seems as if Y2J has no desire for a repeat performance in Saudi Arabia next month. WWE is returning to the country for the Crown Jewel PPV, an event which will feature a World Cup with Superstars like John Cena, Randy Orton, Kurt Angle, and Jeff Hardy to crown the best wrestler in the world today.
Jericho, who is currently making an impact on the Indy scene and seems to have little to no interest in working for WWE right now, was recently asked on Twitter if he would like to compete in this World Cup and made it clear that he's not interested. The reason why isn't clear but it could be because of the backlash the company received for dealing with a country with laws which are in the stone age.
When and if Jericho will return to WWE isn't clear but he seems to be content on the Indies wrestling for promotions like Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling so we could be waiting a while.
