10 Best Cruiserweight wrestlers of all-time

Two of the true greats!

#4 Chris Jericho

Jericho is a lock for the WWE HOF!

Long before Raw was ever Jericho and way before he thought he could one day be the ayatollah of rock-and-rolla, Chris Jericho was at the forefront of building a legendary Cruiserweight division for all fans to enjoy.

Chris Jericho got his start in the wrestling business at only 19 years of age. From the beginning, his charisma alone was enough to let everyone know he was something special. In the mid-1990’s, Chris found his way onto the infamous ECW roster, which is truly where things started to change.

Unfortunately for Paul Heyman and crew, WCW took quick notice of the young Jericho and quickly made him an offer he was not able to refuse.

Jericho was a part of the huge Cruiserweight push in WCW and from there, we all know how the rest of his legendary career would play out. Chris is now 46 years old, with a laundry list of accolades to his credit.

Even in the later years of his storied career, Chris is still good for a quick comeback and maybe even a title win. That is, of course, if he’s not too busy being a rock star.
