Bret Hart is the best wrestler of all-time. I don't understand how Kliq fans can call him a whiner or a bitch. Shawn Michaels was the biggest bitch of them all.
The only wrestlers that I've seen that are on his level in the ring are Ric Flair, Ricky Steamboat, Shawn Michaels, Chris Benoit or Kurt Angle.
Personally, I'd say Jericho is pretty close to that level, but he hasn't put on as many 5 star classics as those listed above. He's one of the most entertaining wrestlers ever though, no doubt, and his combination of in-ring ability and charisma makes him one of the best ever, in my opinion. In-ring he's a shade beneath the absolute elite, however.
Comparing the talent pool Bret Hart had to work with and the talent pool Chris Jericho had to work with is absurd. Jericho worked in ECW when they had some of the best wrestlers in the world. The talent level WCW had in the late 1990s was ridiculous. In the WWF he had great talent to work with as well, beginning with the Radicals coming over and through invasion and foward. Who the hell did Bret Hart have to work with? The New-Generation WWF roster, in terms of in-ring ability was atrocious, save for a few wrestlers.
