Highlight: Walls of Jericho!

I have been sitting back and have reached some really depressing conclusions. One of which is how under rated Chris Jericho is in the wrestling world. I have been a very supportive fan of Chris Jericho, without doing the usual indy worker type: using every move their favorites do. I am not the only person, however, to feel this way, considering that Wrestling Observer had also declared this in 1999 and 2000 here is his title history.  Although it is very long, he still is underrated due to the fact that he hasn’t had the highlight that he should. He should be holding that WWE Championship longer than Cena, longer than Edge, longer than Orton, and, in my oppinion, he can wrestle circles and squares around HHH.

Here is another one that gets me ticked: Jericho was inducted into the Canadian Wrestling Hall of Fame on September 25, 1997. On July 5,2004, Jericho was awarded The Order of the Buffalo Hunt in a ceremony held in Manitoba for his achievements in wrestling and his continual commitment to working with underprivileged children. The award has previously been given to Pope John Paul II, Chicago mayor Richard Daley, Desmond Tutu, and Mother Teresa. All this and still mid card material? I don’t think so. He was the person WWE felt could carry the promotion for a short while, making him the undisputed champion. Unifying both WCW and WWE titles was a big deal, but apparently, it wasn’t good enough for a long and much deserved run with a major title for a long period of time. I believe Jericho should be main eventing just about every WWE Raw show and PPV. He should be the main man, the go to person when the title needs prestige added. Give the man what he deserves!
