Chris Jericho addresses the throat injury he has recently suffered.
Recently Fozzy announced that they would be postponing the start of their tour as lead singer and AEW roster member Chris Jericho was suffering from a throat injury. While Jericho may not be able to sing, he has remained an active member of the AEW roster.
In a new interview with Chris Jericho, “Inside the Ropes” host Alex McCarthy kicked things off by inquiring when Jericho’s band Fozzy will finally tour the United Kingdom. Jericho clarified for McCarthy that, while a bruised larynx he suffered at AEW’s “Quake on the Lake” led to postponement of some U.S. dates in September, Fozzy would be on their way to the UK soon.
“It’s just a matter of time, waiting for it to heal,” Jericho explained. The inaugural AEW World Champion elaborated that “there’s no medical procedure you can do,” and is hoping “it gets better soon. We love playing the UK. Hopefully by November, we’ll be back up and running. The last time we played, every show was sold out. This tour’s going great, so we’re really excited about it.”
