Nope. In the Spider-Man vs. Juggernaut issue of Spider-Man, Spidey went all
out and couldn't budge Juggernaut by a single inch. If somebody who can
bench press an armored truck can't move Juggernaut, then a counterweighted
rope won't do it either.

Actually, this is misleading. The trick depends on Juggernaut's current
power level. At the time of the story, Juggy had full 'normal' power, which
seems to include mystic forcefield effects. He later became MUCH more
powerful. He is currently a lot weaker and possibly would be temporarily
stopped by rope. (Temporarily as he is now barely agile enough to reach it
while handing upside-down).
