There are a few big matches that Chris Jericho is hoping to have in Japan.
Chris Jericho defeated KONOSUKE TAKESHITA on November 12th at DDT Pro-Wrestling’s Ultimate Party 2023 after forcing him to tap out to the Walls Of Jericho.
During a post match press conference, Chris Jericho praised TAKESHITA and admitted the only reason he came to DDT Pro-Wrestling was to wrestle him. Jericho also mentioned a few other Japanese talents that he would like to step into the ring with for a singles encounter in the future.
If you’re talking about other wrestlers in DDT, Endo, I thought he was very good tonight. I was very impressed with him,” Jericho said. “I still think there’s a Jericho-Ibushi match that we could have in Japan. I think the biggest Japanese wrestler never faced is Suzuki. I know he wants to do it and I want to do it. Once again, he’s a lot like my thoughts on Takeshita. I don’t want to have a match just on a random dynamite I want to have a big main event match in Ryogoku, in the Tokyo Dome, somewhere big, and I want to do it in Japan

Back In April 2023, Minoru Suzuki said that he’d like to have a match with Chris Jericho before he retires. The two have never met in a singles match.
