Jericho hasn’t wrestled since the Full Gear PPV. The Inner Circle took on and defeated The American Top Team, Ethan Page and Scorpio Sky at the show.
The first AEW Champion was last seen on television during the December 1st edition of Dynamite. He was attacked by 2point0 and Daniel Garcia to write him off for the UK tour.
He had been active on social media hours before the cancellation of the show. So, it appears that his health issues were a sudden development.
