Chris Jericho shocked fans with his recent appearance for the Vietnam Pro Wrestling promotion, and now a documentary is in the works.
During a recent interview with “WFAA,” Jericho spoke about learning a lot about VPW and wanting to give fans around the world a better look at the promotion. He said,
“They didn’t even have a wrestling ring at first, they wrestled on mats. I thought there was a very interesting documentary in there, and I’ve done a couple of documentaries so far…So the guys were there, probably about ten days before I was, but I knew I wanted to be there.
“We didn’t even know what capacity, but while I was there, we came up with the ending of the documentary. It’s going to be very cool, very heartwarming, and it’s going to once again show that pro wrestling is this entity that is worldwide. It’s not just here in the States, it’s not just in Canada, it’s everywhere. And it makes people happy and gives them a chance to live their dreams, no matter what country you happen to be born in. And I just thought ‘That’s a story I wanted to tell.'”
Jericho, alongside Kenny Omega, was scheduled to challenge for the AEW World Tag Team Championships at next week’s AEW Worlds End pay-per-view event.
Unfortunately, Omega is currently out of action due to diverticulitis. It is unclear when The Cleaner will make his return to the ring.
