Jericho Shares Candid Moment with Bret Hart
In early April 2025, Chris Jericho, known as Y2J, competed at AEW Dynasty against Bandido for the ROH World Championship but did not retain the title. Since that event, led by Tony Khan, Jericho has stayed away from AEW programming, leaving fans to speculate about his return. Despite being born outside of Calgary, Jericho credits the Canadian city for helping launch his wrestling career and holds Canadian citizenship. On social media, he shared a meaningful moment with wrestling legend Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart, referencing their shared connection to Calgary in his post’s caption.
Bret Hart, celebrated as one of wrestling’s most iconic figures, was born in Calgary, Alberta, while Jericho fostered his wrestling roots there. Jericho’s recent Instagram post included a photo of the two, underlining his appreciation for the city and Hart’s influence.

“The feud with Shawn Michaels in 2008 is, I think, one of the greatest feuds in WWE history. They should put together a … Netflix documentary about that, about how to have a great feud.”
