A lot of fans had their eyes wide open as former AEW Champion Chris Jericho was revealed as the next guest on Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Sessions earlier this week. The gravity of this is that it represents the first collaboration between WWE and AEW, intended or not. 

Chris Jericho also fueled the fire later by mentioning that this appearance had kicked open the forbidden door between the two rival companies, and fans now believe a collaboration is in the works. 

Triple H (Paul Levesque) built that bridge from his end as well, when he gave fans more hope for this major crossover collaboration. In his recent media call with Wrestle Zone, the WWE COO revealed that the company, including Chairman Vince McMahon, was open for business.

“We’re open for business. We’ve said it a million times on things. Vince (McMahon) has been very adamant about that. We’re open for business, whatever is best for business for WWE. Whoever that is,” stated Triple H.

The AEW Collaboration could help WWE in numerous ways

Vince McMahon’s irresponsive nature to collaborations with other promotions is well known, and WWE has almost never mixed its business that way. However, a collaboration with AEW would be profitable from a business standpoint and would benefit both companies.

Tony Khan has built a good roster in his promotion and has managed to solidify the main roster with big names like Kenny Omega, Jon Moxley, Cody Rhodes, Orange Cassidy, Darby Alin, Hikaru Shida, Thunder Rosa, Sting, and most recently, Christian Cage. 

Fans would love to see these stars clash with WWE’s top names. AEW has already kicked open the forbidden door through its collaboration with NJPW and has sent its Champion Kenny Omega to Impact as well.

Omega has expressed his interest in working with WWE somewhere down the road, and the ball really is in Vince McMahon’s court right now. If he does agree to the collaboration, it would be historic. 

Triple H has confirmed WWE’s openness to this idea, and with Chris Jericho’s appearance, we can only hope that a lot more surprises are in order. The Forbidden Door stands tattered, and a final kick by WWE would open the Wrestling world to an array of possibilities.
