>Hogan - Cancelled instantly for racist comments dug up on Twitter, long title reigns don't work either so fans turn on him in the middle of his babyface push, shit worker see Roman Reigns, fans hate him.
>Rock - See his run as Rocky Miavia dementia senile Vince would keep him like that, without Russo and in today's climate no edgy jokes to get him over he doesn't become the Rock, all 100% scripted promos
>Cena - See Rock but instead without the wrestling ability so fans hate him even more, he would be cut after a few months into his prototype gimmick as Vince would never let him cut unscripted promos let alone the shit he got away with during early 2000s Smackdown. No Kurt Angle debut to get him over, no Smackdown Six to carry him in the ring, No Undertaker to feud with
>Austin - Vince would book him as the Ringmaster, no authority figures for him to feud with, Blood is banned, no Bret Hart to carry him and get him over. Can't swear, can't cuss, no stunts

Jericho got over in WCW before Rock or Austin were even champions, literally at the start of 1998 when he was feuding with Mysterio over the Cruiserweight title he was over. He wasn't even saying edgy shit, he was being a comedy heel

Not even close lmao. Only became a main eventer during wrestling's coldest era. Maybe if he got the push when wrestling was relevant, he could've had a different career, but not a top guy in any meaningful company.
Same could be said for Cena, really. WWE faded to cultural irrelevance during his tenure.
It's Austin or Hogan of those.

Jericho is the only guy to remain relevant as long as he has. He's a great talker, a very good to great worker, and has always been over despite being buried god knows how many times. He's reinvented himself multiple times to keep himself up to date, he works great as a face or heel, and he managed to launch a successful wrestling company basically off of his own reputation.

He's done a lot of things. Does it matter if he wasn't the top guy in WWE for a few years? I don't think so really, considering everything else. Jericho's best matches are from like 2015-2019, that's pretty crazy for a guy who was one of the most over acts of the Attitude Era.

I actually agree for everyone but Austin and maybe The Rock, Rock in Roman's seat wouldn't continuously shit the bed on promos, though he also says way worse shit that's written for him, he does it well enough. He'd be fine but I could see him hovering around upper midcard. Austin though thrives no matter what, probably leaves if he gets sick of it and goes around having bangers and cutting god tier promos everywhere else before coming back on whatever money he wants with freedom in his contract.

You are also right that Jericho is fine no matter what, he'd be in that upper midcard occasionally get a run with the top belt before losing to a Roman or Brock spot.

Austin already got a much bigger pop in 2022 than Jericho has gotten in over 10 years
Cena got a bigger pop too
Rock definitely would
Hogan and Flair MIGHT, nobody really pops for the old guys though
