    i chose jericho cuz it says overall so charisma and mic skills count, brets advantage in skill doesnt outweigh jericho advantage in those

    Bret and not even close.

    When has Bret ever got a pop like this when he won the strap?

    http://https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RbC06eQS_ww

    Jericho has Bret beat in everything when it comes to charisma,mic work,character even as a athlete he's better, the only advantage Bret has is the technical mat wrestling style... Jericho has more individual memorable moments with timeless promos, Bret doesn't, when i think of Bret I think of the guy that a had a beef with the GOAT HBK but secretly wish he was HBK bc he was the golden boy and chosen one by Vince and he always wanted HBKs props and respect bc he was viewed as a lame to HBK and the Kliq... Bottom line tho if you say Bret cool but chill with that "it ain't close" ? bc Jericho overall is clearly better...

    gotta be fair tho, bret aint secretly wish he was hbk, he was the top guy right b4 hbk. something jericho hasnt been (due to depth of roster at his time but still) he was prolly viewed as having less edge, but he wasnt a lame, as a face he had the hoes and kids cheering for him just like most top guys

    imo jericho one of the greatest in ring but theres a few better and bret is one.

    jericho advantage come on the mic and charisma wise but i dont think its fair to act like bret was a robot

    this comparison is closer than it looks overall imo.

    Overall Jericho. Both can go in the ring but There's so much more to Jericho's character. I feel like Bret can literally only talk 1 way.

    I know this doesn't mean too much but Jericho has him when it comes to longevity too.. and he's still going. Y2J wrestles more than you may think he does. He does house shows and ? all the time.

    Some ppl might give longevity to Bret as far as putting on more great matches past his physical prime, when he won the IC Title for the first time in 1991 he was already 34 years old...

    But when it comes to number of years, yea Jericho got him beat easily and still puts on some good ? when he's out there..

    Bret career was cut short tho he prob had another 5yrs left had he not got retired by that kick.

    imagine the classics he wouldve gave us with

    Austin
    Kurt
    Rock
    Benoit
    Y2J
    HBK (maybe)
    HHH (Maybe)
    Brock (would made Brock look like a super monster the way he wouldve worked)
    Eddie
    Booker

    etc

    Stop this fuckery. Jericho talked. That's it. I don't even understand the interest in him on the mic. He hasn't been interesting since that Dean Malenko "I've got 1,001 moves!" feud in WCW.

    He's Rob Van Dam off weed and better spot monkey timing. Mentioning him with Bret is insane. IN.SANE.

    C'mon bro. Jericho is the prototype. In 2008 he changed heel work forever. He was already a legendary character by that time.

    Jericho's 2008 gimmick and his 1999 personality are two of the most bit up characters in wrestling.
