Chris Jericho and MVP apparently have heat.
Sometimes in wrestling relationships get burned in odd ways. For many, we never find out what was the cause of heat between two pro wrestlers. One of those occasions might be right now as there appears to be legitimate heat between an AEW and WWE star.
Dave Meltzer wrote about an altercation between Chris Jericho and MVP following an AEW taping in May in The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Allegedly, the pair got into it due to a falling out 18 months ago, with Jericho antagonizing MVP with one last insult before he left:
“After the 5/18 show in Houston, there was a confrontation in the hotel the wrestlers were staying at between Chris Jericho and MVP at about 1 a.m. after the Dynamite tapings. Something that I’m not clear of happened 18 months ago where they had a falling out. Jericho was talking to Matt Hardy and MVP showed up. Most people didn’t know what was up and thought he was kidding around until it became clear he wasn’t kidding. Nothing bad happened even though it was a tense situation. Jericho did tell him that he doesn’t fight jobbers when he got in the elevator and MVP was screaming about it in the lobby”

It is not known what the reason for the heat between Jericho and MVP is, but it sounds like it runs deep if the two are nearly getting into a brawl at a hotel.
