It has been reported on some of the WWE news websites that WWE had offered Chris Jericho a contract, however, that report is inaccurate. While WWE has been eyeing Jericho, their interest escalated with the recent injuries to Kennedy and Undertaker, the impending departure of Rob Van Dam, and the uncertainty of Randy Orton. Preliminary plans were to get Jericho back for the three-hour "season premiere" of RAW in October; however, the decision has been made to make a major play for him to have him back by SummerSlam. Nevertheless it should be clearly understood that no formal contract has been drafted for Chris Jericho and he is very much a free agent in the wrestling industry.
It should be noted that TNA is just as hungry for Jericho as WWE and he has not made any public comments regarding his future with either company.
We'll keep you posted here on TNAWrestlingNews.com I think WWE has the best cards but perhaps they don't want him not to run a full schedule, but if he threatens to go to TNA they might actually let him run an easier schedule in WWE so not much chance for TNA I'm afraid.
