Chris Jericho made a surprise appearance at the CMLL Viernes Espectacular event in Mexico City on Friday night.
The former AEW World Champion, under a luchador mask, interfered during a match between Mistico and Averno, attacking Mistico.
Jericho subsequently challenged Mistico to a match, delivering a promo to express his intentions.
He said, “I’m very happy to be here. A huge part of my life was Mexico and wrestling in Mexico City and living in Mexico City, all across the country. Many people say I am the greatest of all time. But tonight, [Translated from Spanish], I am the best wrestler of all time. Mistico, you are not on my level. You are not in my nest. I am the heart of a lion. You are the heart of a mouse.”
Jericho continued in English, “Mistico, I will challenge you anytime, anyplace, anywhere. You say the word. You call Arena Mexico your house. Thirty years ago, Arena Mexico was my house, and I’m coming back to take my house away from you.”
