Chris Jericho made his return to the WWE last Monday night on RAW, and the company has plenty of plans for "Y2J" for the rest of the summer.
Cesaro Expected To Win Intercontinental Championship Battle Royal
Jericho interrupted The Miz, who was also making his return, and after he delivered a Codebreaker to him, he was surrounded by The Wyatt Family. The interruption from The Wyatt Family sparked a feud that is expected to carry over until SummerSlam.
According to Wrestlingheadlinesl.com, there was some talk within WWE creative about having Jericho face The Miz at Battleground on July 20 live from the Tampa Bay Times Forum in Florida and saving the Jericho vs. Wyatt clash as one of the main attractions for SummerSlam on Aug. 17 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Details Behind Chris Jericho's Return And How It Happened
There have been reports over the last week that Jericho vs. Wyatt, Stephanie McMahon vs. Brie Bella, Roman Reigns vs. Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship have already been penciled in for the biggest show of the summer.
The Miz and Jericho are set to go one-on-one on this week's episode of RAW in a match that will eventually lead to the two clashing again at Battleground.
Jericho is slated to stay with the company until at least the Night of Champions pay-per-view on Sept. 21 at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. It is expected that his only major feud will be with Wyatt and Jericho will be used as a veteran to help continue to get Wyatt over before he takes another hiatus.
Jericho's program with The Miz is expected to be short and to just bridge Jericho into his altercation with The Wyatt Family.
It'll be an interesting summer for Jericho as he clashes with Wyatt, someone he has said in the past that he has really wanted to work with.
