Chris Jericho defeated Konosuke Takeshita at DDT Ultimate Party 2023 on Saturday.
During the post-show press conference, Jericho discussed his remaining goals in Japan and named Kota Ibushi as someone he would like to face.
The former AEW World Champion said, “If you’re talking about other wrestlers in DDT, Endo, I thought he was very good tonight. I was very impressed with him. I still think there’s a Jericho-Ibushi match that we could have in Japan. I think the biggest Japanese wrestler never faced is Suzuki. I know he wants to do it and I want to do it. Once again, he’s a lot like my thoughts on Takeshita.”
He continued, “I don’t want to have a match just on a random Dynamite, I want to have a big main event match in Ryogoku, in the Tokyo Dome, somewhere big, and I want to do it in Japan.”
