NJPW Rumors: Chris Jericho Teases Appearing At G1 Special?
We’re just a mere few hours away from tonight’s next New Japan Pro Wrestling event in the United States, the G1 Special in San Francisco from the famed Cow Palace. With the show airing live on AXS TV and NJPW World, many fans have wondered if IWGP Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho could possibly be making an appearance, as he’s not been advertised for a match.
Recently, ‘The Alpha’ appeared on Inside The Ropes and explained that he had been asked to do the show, however he declined. Jericho would state that he felt as if working in the United States would be a “slap in the face to Vince McMahon”, with whom he maintains a great relationship with (check out Jericho’s full comments here).
Following yesterday’s press conference for the G1 Special, ‘Y2J’ replied to a tweet from WrestleZone that said he was not scheduled for the show, leading to speculation that he might pop up as a surprise:
Where did u see that? https://t.co/LFyvhKTzyt

EA’s Take: They probably saw it on TheChairshot.com, Chris, because you were quoted as saying you declined. You have to take anything Jericho does these days at face value however. He also previously said he was finished working with New Japan Pro Wrestling and now, he’s the IWGP Intercontinental Champion. So at this point, I think it would be great buzz for him to show up yet again, but would I be shocked? Not at all.

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
