Chris Jericho continues to make waves, and he recently took to his ‘Talk Is Jericho’ podcast to admit that he pitched a potential NJPW vs. WWE match for this Sunday’s SummerSlam PPV, more specifically, an Intercontinental Champion vs Intercontinental Champion match.
Jericho says that he pitched the idea to “a certain head of a certain wrestling company. I’ve got something for you. I said what do you think about Intercontinental champion vs. Intercontinental champion: Jericho vs. Rollins?”
While Jericho admits that idea got a “decent reponse” he said he never heard back from WWE regarding the idea.
Since then, Dolph Ziggler has captured the Intercontinental title while Jericho has been the IWGP Intercontinental Champion since June 9th after he defeated Tetsuya Naito in a match at Dominion.
