Also with the current TV show doing as well as it is he's definitely got an even bigger presence now. Your comparison of Batman and Superman to Cena and Triple H doesn't really work. I'd say Batman is Macho Man, Superman is Hulk Hogan, and Wonder Woman is Andre the Giant. And if that's the case then I'd say Flash is probably Roddy Pipper in this equation.

When you say "biggest hero in the mainstream public", you're sticking to DC characters, right?
That may be the case, and I'm not saying aren't familiar with "The Flash", but come on... I could name drop Wonder Woman to somebody, they'd know what I'm referring to, but would have no idea of her real name, powers, villains... pretty much anything other than the name itself and that she's a comic book superhero.
