WWE/AEW

A WWE star making their debut is often times the most important moment of their career.

Throughout the years many top stars have had rather impactful debuts, including Kane, AJ Styles and The Shield, but many people consider Chris Jericho’s debut to be the best in the history of the company.

WWE today ran down a list of the top 25 best debuts in the history of the company, and as all these WWE lists do, it created discourse online.

WWE placed the Shield’s debut at Survivor Series in 2012 as number one, with Kane, Goldberg, Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar rounding out the top 5.

Jericho’s debut did not place in the top 5, instead coming in at 10, which caught the attention of Y2J himself, who responded to the list of the top five debuts, simply saying:
