Chris Jericho is in no hurry to step back into the ring with barbed wire again.
Eddie Kingston and Chris Jericho’s feud ended in a barbed wire everywhere match that Jericho would end up winning. However, Eddie would get the last laugh, throwing Jericho into a pit of barbed wire to close out the episode of Dynamite.
Speaking on the Absolute Geek Podcast at San Diego ComicCon, Jericho looked back on the match and whether he’d do it again.
“I have stitches actually on my inner thigh, which I’ve never had before and is a little too close for comfort. It was pretty brutal, but that’s kind of what we do, it happens sometimes. I think everyone enjoyed it and those types of matches are good for the wrestling business because people get a little bit too ‘oh, it’s not real,’ and someone gets cut on barbed wire and it changes people’s perception. It’s good to do that once in awhile. Will I ever have another barbed wire match? I’d like to say no. I’ve had two in my career, 30 years a part, maybe in another 30 years I’ll have another one,”
