Chris Jericho has said he is excited about his upcoming Casket Match against The Undertaker at the Greatest Royal Rumble.
In an interview with StillRealToUs.Com, Jericho said how he found out about the match three days ago and says it'll be fun.
He said: "I’m the King Of The Casket Match, I’m undefeated in a Casket Match and to go to Saudi Arabia for it, it’s a pretty interesting setting."
Jericho, who is now calling himself 'the King of the Casket Match', due to his undefeated streak (0 appearances, 0 losses) also said he hopes the Greatest Royal Rumble will be profitable for both the WWE and the Saudi Arabian government.
"There’s an opportunity of a big financial commitment on both ends from the WWE and the Saudi Arabian government. So hopefully it’s a long and fruitful relationship for years to come.”
Jericho replaced Rusev, who was initially announced to be The Undertaker's opponent.
The first-ever Undisputed Champion was also quick to shoot down rumours of a possible Summerslam appearance.
"No man," he told StillRealToUs. "I don’t work that way as you can see just dropping in. If I’m going to work something it needs to be something special.”
The Greatest Royal Rumble will take place April 27 at the King Abdullah Stadium in Saudi Arabia, and will feature seven title matches and a historic 50-Superstar Royal Rumble.
