WWE star Chris Jericho took some shots at Kenny Omega, NJPW and indie wrestling, calling Omega “overrated”. According to reports, this all may be a storyline angle for several indy events and a cruise in 2018.
As previously reported on eWn, Jericho will be hosting a “Rock ‘n Wrestling Rager” cruise from October 27th – 31st (2018). Fans on the cruise will be treated to a “Sea of Honor” tournament/event from ROH. According to Jericho, some of the matchups will “blow your minds.”
As of now, no matches have been announced. It’s a long way out but as of now, both Jericho and Omega are expected to be part of the ROH’s Sea of Honor event. It’s very possible that the two will face off in a match on that show and continue to build their feud at several indie events late this year or early next year.
