As an angle in continuity, yes it makes sense and having the former World Champion in the match adds value to the match.They can dead them last two matches, All them MFs is Bums but I'm not mad at Jericho, Hobbs, Archer, or Wardlow getting a title shot.
Hook just lost so it shouldn't be him. I'm not sure if Jericho has even had a title match since losing the belt to Mox, Long overdue instead of wrestling random bum ass CMLL rookies
IRL? I don't want to see this washed up scumbag anywhere near the title.
