6. WWE Provides Update On Chris Jericho’s Status
As we noted before, the friendship between WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens & United States Champion Chris Jericho ended during the “Festival of Friendship” on Raw when Owens attacked Jericho & laid him out.
Below is the update on Jericho from WWE:
Chris Jericho was taken to a local medical facility to be evaluated for cervical pain and possible injuries caused by the powerbomb on the apron by Kevin Owens. Jericho also appears to have suffered several lacerations and contusions.
After the United States Champion presented his best friend with gifts during a “Festival of Friendship,” Jericho told Owens how much he appreciated their bond in a heartfelt speech. In return, the WWE Universal Champion presented his supposed best friend with a gift of his own, The List of KO, before viciously assaulting him. The beatdown ended with a powerbomb onto the side of the ring, a move which has injured Superstars in the past, and Owens throwing Jericho into an LED screen.
