Chris Jericho Has Foul-Mouthed Response To 'Please Retire' Chants

Ever since April's Dynasty pay-per-view, "Please retire!" chants have followed Chris Jericho across North America to the point the former AEW World Champion has played into the chants as part of his 'Learning Tree' gimmick.

Chris Jericho is unlikely to grant fans their wish any time soon, however, and the 53-year-old had a foul-mouthed response to the chants when asked about them by the Daily Star.

"Sting at 64 retired and everybody is different. To me, when the 'please retire' chants were going, I was laughing because I have zero intentions of that. I've got a six-pack, I can do a moonsault, and I know exactly what I'm doing in the ring. I know how to write storylines. I like the company I work for. I like my boss. I like the guys and girls in the company. Why would I want to retire? What's the point because someone told me to? F*ck off," Jericho stated.

"I remember the (Rolling) Stones in '89, when they did the Steel Wheels Tour, they were calling it the Steel Wheelchair Tour. 'The Stones are too old. The Stones should retire.' I just saw The Stones two months ago and they were amazing. They didn't care. You retire when you know it's time and you know it's right. It's not the right time right now. Until that moment where I feel, 'This needs to stop,' I have no intentions (of retiring). There is no time limit. It could be this week. It could be five years from now. I don't know. I just know that as of this moment, I'm having a great time. I love going to work. I love contributing. There is no reason to stop doing that." 

Chris Jericho will be in action this weekend when he defends the FTW Championship against HOOK at AEW All In. AEW's biggest show of the year will emanate from London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday, August 25.
