There's no way WWE could have been happy about Chris Jericho's decision to sign with All Elite Wrestling and his appearance at the press conference yesterday has seemingly already had an impact on his status with the company. While it's said that Jericho's deal in non-exclusive (meaning he can work with NJPW), it's highly unlikely that WWE will want to work with him while he's wrestling elsewhere.

Don't believe us? Well, following his appearance for All Elite Wrestling, Jericho was moved to the "Alumni" section of the WWE.com website and he's been edited out of the intro which opens RAW and SmackDown Live. He was there for the former but not the latter: Cesaro took his place instead! 

A number of outlets are reporting that Y2J was in talks with WWE lately but for whatever reason, it doesn't appear as if he wanted to return to the company where he made a name for himself. With any luck, the relationship can be repaired somewhere down the line so we'll just have to wait and see.
