Chris Jericho talks about his in-ring status at AEW at the age of 53

In an interview with torontosun.com, Chris Jericho talked about his in-ring status with AEW at the age of 53

“I just saw the Rolling Stones, four times on this tour, and Mick (Jagger) is 80, and I don’t think you shouldn’t do that at 80,” Jericho said. “I think you should do that at 80. If everyone had the same attitude and mindset as Mick Jagger, it would be a lot better for your own life. I’ve never heard anyone say at 53 that I shouldn’t do that. For me, it’s like, ‘Why shouldn’t I be able to do that?’ It’s just what I do. I’ve done it when I was 43, 33 and 23, and for me, I live in the moment and live in the now, and I don’t worry about any numbers except the numbers on my paycheck. (laughs)”

“All that matters is the money and the miles, they say in the business. If I ever feel like I can’t do this or that I’m hurting myself, then it’s time to reevaluate things, but right now I’m having a great time in AEW and enjoying all the success we’re having as a company and working with the younger guys and giving them the experience that I have and still doing great work and having a lot of fun and that’s the most important thing to me.”
