Out of the following-
Merle
Waylon
DAC
Willie
How do you leave Johnny out of that? JR Cash was, without question, the most popular. He was arguably the biggest entertainer in the entire world at some points in the late 60s/early 70s.
If you don't include Johnny, then I think the clear-cut answer is Willie. However, this depends on if you mean "inside" or "outside" the movement itself. Willie certainly had the most crossover success and name recognition in the greater world. But Waylon probably had the most cred and popularity inside the smaller world of outlaw country.
