Chris Jericho thinks Oasis WILL reunite soon!
The wrestler and rock musician shared his thoughts on rumours the Gallagher brothers will reunite in 2025.
Chris Jericho has shared his predictions about an Oasis reunion.
The AEW wrestler and musician - whose real name is Chris Irvine - believes the band will get back together "sooner" rather "than later" and says that when it does happen, it will be a "worldwide, earth-shaking event".
Speaking to Radio X's Toby Tarrant as he took over presenting duties The Chris Moyles Show, the pro wrestler said: "I think Oasis is going to get back together sooner than later.
"I think these guys Noel and Liam have it all figured out and they know what they wanna do. That's my prediction."
Jericho, who fronts his own band Fozzy, went on: "I was just saying every 10 years, a band that you never thought would get back together does. It was The Police in '07. Huge worldwide thing. Guns N' Roses in '17. Huge worldwide thing.
"Oasis is next. 2025."
"It's exciting though, it's an exciting thought," he added: "'Cause like you said, that would be a worldwide, earth-shaking event."
When Tarrant opined that the band could sell out Wembley Stadium "every night forever", the 53-year-old star added: "So Taylor Swift just did seven (eight) shows or something? Oasis could do 20. Easy."
The Break The Walls Down rocker concluded: "Billy Joel did a residency at Madison Square Garden once a month. Oasis could do a residency at Wembley Stadium."
Jericho's comments come after reports have started to ramp up surrounding the Britpop band getting together once more.
This week rumours have swirled that the Manchester band are set to return for 20 gigs, with 10 taking place in their hometown of Manchester and 10 taking place in London.
