Nah. Not really. I've been saying it for the longest. When we compare the 2 it's irrelevant since
1. Iori wasn't around(seriouisly who cares what he did when Iori wasn't around to stop him?) & 2. It hasn't happened in a universe that contains both of them. It's like the only thing you could use to back him up vs. Iori was something that didn't happen. Lame
I dont even need to use the old timeline. Iori doesnt have a grand record winning tourneys and reaching finals, either.
And you want all of them in one place? Fine, you have Maximum Impact for that.

There are obvious connections to other games, like. . .
Akuma learning the Kongoukoku Retsuzan at the end of Double Impact then using it in 3rd Strike.
Ryu beating Sagat in SF 1, then Sagat complaining about it in SF 2.
Ryu using the Metsu Shoryuken to beat Sagat in SF 1, then having it as a level 3 Super in Alpha.
Bison being killed in SF 2, and not being present in SF III.
Chun Li and the gang taking out Shadowloo in SF2, then Urien mentioning it in SF III.
Bison's Psycho Drive being destroyed in Alpha, then being weaker in SF 2
And that's just to name a few. Capcom was just lazy IMO, there are obvious connections.
Originally posted by olympianIori walks away from them though. You never answered the questions about who went to the finals more or who's gotten farther in KOF. You said you would. What's the holdup? MI is also it's own canon & we don't know enough about it. If it's based on the books like Sado's info suggested all we know is Iori was walking around looking for Kyo & that Ryo got beat the fu*k up by a little girl dressed like a cat. She really kicked his @ss too. I think he's the only one that actually got eliminated in that book.
