AEW superstar Chris Jericho is being accused of inappropriate conduct behind the scenes in AEW.

Although no victim or accusers have actually come forward with any claims, Nick Hausman of the Rumor and Innuendo podcast and Haus Of Wrestling said this about Jericho on recent broadcast:

“There are issues with Chris behind the scenes where I know a lot of people who were hurt by Chris and his actions. It’s very uncomfortable to me to see him lauded like he is and only having the focus on that because I do think there are a lot of questionable stories about Chris that will find their way out over time when people are ready to tell those stories that will cast him in a very different light…I mean, Harvey Weinstein won a lot of Oscars. Harvey Weinstein produced a lot of very popular films. Harvey Weinstein is now in jail … I’m not saying that is happening to Chris but the narrative can quickly turn if you’re hiding a lot of skeletons in your closet.”

An account on X (ISO Wrestling) reacted to a clip of the statement by reposting an older tweet and also stating later that there are women who are waiting to tell their stories: “So here’s the deal, you don’t quit the hottest fed going today (AEW) without reason. I have it from people in the know that Kylie was asked to go to Chris Jericho’s room. With the understanding that others would be there. When she got there it was just him. He made a pass at her (no other details are given) and she freaked out.”

Kylie Rae responded to the reply with a heart emoji.

Many have taken that and other reactions by Rae to mean that she is confirming the allegation and story.

Rae has not made any public statement at this time beyond that reaction.

In 2019, Rae abruptly left AEW after only being in the promotion for a short time.

At the time of Rae’s departure Tony Khan said this at a media scrum: “She is no longer with us. We had so many announcements going into the battle royal. She asked for her release and we granted it. She called me and asked if she could be released from her contract.”
