5 wrestlers that wrestled in WCW but did better in the WWE

#4 Chris Jericho

With JPS head Ralphus in tow, Chris Jericho caught the attention of the WCW fan base

Even after years in the wrestling business, Jericho still seems timeless, both in the ring and in terms of character direction and creativity. He has achieved so much success in WWE that it is almost impossible to remember his time in WCW. Older wrestling fans will recall that Jericho had to fight to develop his character and did whatever he could to garner attention.

It was clear that he was a talented in-ring performer after coming from Paul Heyman's ECW to World Championship Wrestling.

However, despite earning a Cruiserweight championship, it seemed his attempts to be more of a focal point were all for nought. Eventually, he left WCW and moved to WWE, earning the moniker Y2J. Despite not initially having success with the company, he won over fans as the years went by – it should be noted that a successful career is a marathon, not a sprint.

After multiple world, intercontinental and tag team championships, Jericho still appears to be going strong and is just as relevant today as he was when he was competing for WCW over twenty years ago.
