draw power will always have to take a large portion of goat conversations but the conversation can never be limited to that factor alone.
once you get into the convo of top draws (and thus goat level workers) the other pieces of the pie become relevent again.
example: hogans ability to draw alone out classes 99% of workers. but once you get into guys in the upper tier of making money things like workrate and the like start holding water again. thats why a guy like ric flair is the true goat. he drew comparable money (many years out drawing vince and co.,) could out work hogan, could out talk hogan, etc, etc etc.
...but jericho isnt on the same level as the rock is terms of drawing. so while his goat level workrate and mic skills let him enter the convo with guys like the rock he will always lose the debate. but we should never be so black and white. box office sales alone define goat no more than in wrestling. you have to take everything into consideration.
