Chris Jericho is currently enjoying his reign as the ROH World Champion in Tony Khan's promotions AEW and ROH. Meanwhile, CM Punk is making waves in Triple H-led WWE.

The Demo God started his wrestling career in the early 90s. He has worked in many different promotions worldwide like WWE, ECW, CMLL, NJPW, WCW, and independent territories while The Best in the World has only worked for a few promotions like TNA, AEW, and ROH in the past.

Speaking on the latest edition of Keepin' It 100, wrestling veterans Konnan and Disco Inferno stated that Chris Jericho and CM Punk are brilliant wrestlers. But they claimed that Jericho is better than Punk. The only reason behind this was that the former has had a vast body of work in pro wrestling than the latter:

"He [Jericho] has a better body of work, a more vast body of work too," Konnan said. [From 01:20 to 01:23]

Disco added:

"Both of them got over huge in WWE at certain points. But Jericho got over in WCW and ECW. Punk was like just Ring of Honor and WWE. I would say based on that Jericho's body of work is a little more impressive." [From 01:25 to 01:51]

Chris Jericho and Cope both are veterans of the wrestling industry. They recently crossed paths in AEW. The Learning Tree took on Rated FTR on the main event of last week's edition of AEW Collision at Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Jericho and his team suffered an embarrassing loss at the hands of Adam Copeland, Cash Wheeler, and Dax Harwood after the WWE Hall of Famer Speared Y2J to pick up the win.
