Chris Jericho Speaks On Money He Received From Greatest Royal Rumble Appearence

Chris Jericho has said he was amazed at the amount he received for his brief appearance at WWE's Greatest Royal Rumble last month. 

Speaking to UK newspaper The Mirror, Jericho described the experience as a long trip for a short period of time. 

He said: "I think I was in the Rumble match for four minutes or something like that. I know they must have been paid a whole lot of money, just by proxy of what I was paid."

" I was like ‘oh my gosh, really, you’re going to pay me that to do this? How much are you guys making?"

Jericho entered the Rumble match at #50, eliminating Shelton Benjamin, before being eliminated by eventual winner Braun Strowman.

The Fozzy frontman had originally replaced Rusev in a Casket Match against the Undertaker, but was removed, allegedly by the wishes of the Saudi crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman.
