HOT TAKE

Lock Jaw 09-13-2017 12:37 PM

Plus, while HBK might be a super-Christian, he was never tag team partners with Christian, so he loses points for that.

HBK might have had better matches, but Jericho also had his fair share of good matches. Even in his last run where people were like "Jericho isn't good in the ring anymore" I was alone off in the corner going "These are good matches! He's still got it!"

The deciding factor I guess is looking back I can remember more Jericho moments and things...... just his personality and stuff puts him over for me..... Wanted to vote for HBK just based on rassling...... but taking everything else into account I think I gotta go with Jericho.......

Maybe..... I dunno..... maybe I just want to make the poll even tighter.

I think you should edit. Not enough dots here.

Ok, thanks for the tip................................

He can't help it if he loves him some run-on ellipses.

Y2J with a strong showing.

Bad News Gertner 09-13-2017 04:38 PM

Here's a random/great Rockers story. After they were fired from the WWF/AWA in 1987 the two landed in Continental. The two were approached by a young girl asking for an autograph. The two signed "we're lesbians! Shawn Michaels/Marty Jannetty". The young girl was the daughter of a t.v executive whose channel broadcasted the Continental weekly t.v

They were fired lol.

Emperor Smeat 09-13-2017 04:43 PM

Really tough choice but gave the slight edge to Jericho mainly due to being entertained a lot more with him.

Feel Jericho was better in terms of in-ring skills and promos while HBK had more bigger moments due to his star status. Both did a really great job reinventing their careers with their multi-runs in the WWE.

Bad News Gertner 09-13-2017 04:49 PM

Jericho is not better than HBK in ring. Come in now.

I dunno like I said Jericho just seems like he can do it all maybe I need to watch that Iron Man match Shawn and Bret had again

Plus I dunno that Jericho ever had the pull and opportunity HBK was afforded and if he was would he have been as successful?

#1-norm-fan 09-13-2017 07:02 PM

HBK can do it all. He can work any style and be fucking incredible at it.

I hate the Iron Man Match lol.

HBK had the pull because he created it. Jericho has had a lot of pull for a while.

Destor 09-13-2017 07:19 PM

Pull isnt an entitlement, its something you create. Not having it is a mark against a guy not for him.

#1-norm-fan 09-13-2017 07:29 PM

Jericho definitely had opportunity. lol

He debuted against The Rock, was a staple in the IC division for years and was the first undisputed champion. Which led to a WrestleMania main event against Triple H that was incredibly underwhelming.

#1-norm-fan 09-13-2017 07:30 PM

... Then like 5 months later HBK came out of a 4+ year retirement retirement and had an absolute classic with HHH.

Ol Dirty Dastard 09-13-2017 07:42 PM

Yeah Jericho has had pull. Hhh boned him at mania tho and he was booked like shit leading into it

Maluco 09-13-2017 09:05 PM

My first Smelly Meatball post after voting him as KING thanks to his irrepressible work ethic....is him saying Chris Jericho is a better in ring wrestler than Shawn Michaels.

Immediately filled with regret! Poor Lock Jaw :-(

Lock Jaw 09-13-2017 09:14 PM

I voted for Jericho too

Ruien 09-13-2017 09:15 PM

Lol

Nicky Fives 09-13-2017 09:54 PM

Sorry Chris, HBK beats pretty much everybody.....

You didn't say he was a better in ring performer than HBK though ;)

Thought your argument was pretty reasoned. Personality and the fact that he has still had good matches etc...

So much for "lol"

The IC belt was kinda worthless then his debut was godly and... that was it I remember him cutting promos against the Rock and Taker and then 0 followup

I was under the impression that HHH didnt hate jericho but didnt want him on the same level.

And as was mentioned he was booked poorly
not long after his debut he went into a ppv facing...ugh Road Dogg

#1-norm-fan 09-14-2017 03:51 PM

I thought the IC belt was pretty meaningful when he was one of the stars of the division but if you think it was worthless...

Destor 09-14-2017 03:52 PM

I think that was one of highest peaks was around 2000

Destor 09-14-2017 03:53 PM

Angle, Benoit, Eddie, Jericho, HHH, Jeff Hardy, Lance Storm, Edge and Regal all within a year or so...

Shut the fuck up

Destor 09-14-2017 04:22 PM

Just caught an error in the "previous better wrestler" results. The final match wasnt in there. Hogan v Cena. Is now. (Hogan wins 40-21)

CHRIS WAS BETTER ON THE MIC, MORE ATHLETIC, AND MORE CREATIVE THAN HBK.

Well yeah of course ill keep talking.

Ol Dirty Dastard 09-14-2017 06:48 PM

Melee mouth is better than motormouth imo

Curtis 09-14-2017 07:08 PM

After much deliberation I went with HBK. I hate to do this to Jericho, but overall, HBK has entertained me more during his career than Jericho has...even if by a smidgeon. I also felt pretty underwhelmed by Jericho's most recent run, I don't know why, but something felt off. At the same time, HBK's return run from back injury was some of my favorite months of wrestling.


Have to give it to HBK. Honestly don't see how HBK wouldn't win this...

I AM A BIG WEIRDO. I DON'T THINK THAT THOUGH. IF I DID I WOULD NOT MAKE FUN OF YOU FOR IT THOUGH.

I'M SORRY!

DAMN iNATOR 09-15-2017 07:45 PM

Wonder who Shawn could possibly face in his 4th round that could dethrone him...as Booker would say, it's gonna be good!

Destor 09-15-2017 08:09 PM

I had planned on using angle but despite him being eligible i did that match last time HBM was champion and forgot...i 85% decided on a 2nd string tho

Mr. Nerfect 09-15-2017 08:38 PM

That was way closer than it had any business being. I was going to come in here and say that the only sort of person I can see beating Michaels is a legitimate draw, but Jericho almost did it here.

Evil Vito 09-16-2017 01:05 PM

Their matchup here was on par with WM19

Destor 09-20-2017 05:13 PM

Will be unable to up one this week. Should be back to my pc Sunday or Monday

Arrogance 09-26-2017 10:38 AM

Shawn Michaels, but it's a good matchup.
