Diamond Dallas Page is so certain that Chris Jericho is returning to WWE that he would bet six figures on it. Jericho’s near future is a matter of heavy debate and speculation in recent months. It was reported late last week that WWE has been very interested in Jericho, whose AEW contract expires at the end of the year.

DDP spoke with Denise Salcedo for a new interview recently. During the conversation, he talked about Jericho’s support of his DDP Yoga system. In an aside, he said that he would “bet $100,000” that Jericho will show up at the Rumble. He made it clear that he has no knowledge himself but that he feels like Jericho will show up at the PLE.

The 2026 Royal Rumble takes place on January 31st, 2026 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. You can see highlights from DDP’s comments below:

On Being Sure That Chris Jericho Will Return To WWE:

“I will bet my — I’d bet $100,000 that he will show up at the Rumble, you know? Just — I’m just throwing it out there, along with everybody else. And the place, the roof will blow off if Chris Jericho shows up at the Rumble.”

On How He Would Book It:

“And if I was booking it, it would be number, like, 10. And he stays to the end. Like, I remember when he first came back with us, he was in like number two, or number one or number two or number three, and he went all the way to the end.”
