Bengaluru, Oct 1: For the past few years, Chris Jericho appeared in the WWE for short time stints. He is under the contract of making only guest appearances. Jericho has been a loyal employee to the company since the get going and he is being called whenever needed.
This year too, prior to the Royal Rumble PPV, Y2J arrived to appear in the annual Rumble match. WWE was lacking big star power at that time and hence Jericho showed up to "save us."
At that point, Jericho admitted that he is not expected for a long time around due to a lot of other commitments after Royal Rumble.
Once Balor got injured, his buddy Owens picked up the vacant Universal title. His inclusion in the title match would be for the sole purpose of helping Owens.
