Andre the Giant is one of the biggest draws of all-time. Jericho is a fantastic wrestler, but never drew money. You can make excuses for him it all you want, but he didn't have the gravity to be a main eventer in 2001/2002, by his own admission. Jericho has seemingly pieced more together now, but it comes towards the tail-end of a career. His 2008 run was tremendous, from a critical perspective, but Andre had years of being money everywhere he went.

If you were starting a promotion from scratch and you had the option between an Andre the Giant or a Chris Jericho, you would rather have Andre working for you. You want to make money.
