The announcement of the cruise streaming on PPV is newsworthy in that Jericho has publicly maintained in the past that the event would not air in any fashion, likely due to his past allegiance to WWE. Now that Y2J and FITE have partnered up to stream the cruise and featured ROH tournament, it will mark the first time Chris Jericho is competing on a non-WWE USA PPV event in nearly 20 years.
Below is the official Jericho and FITE press release:
