Y2J Chris Jericho may be a legend of the WWE, but he has only one WrestleMania main event under his belt.

After defeating The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin on the same night in December 2001, Jericho became the first Undisputed Champion and wasn't shy about it.

Telling everyone of his accolade, it was only a matter of time until the Fozzy frontman went up against Triple H, who had returned from a quad tear to win the 2002 Royal Rumble.

As the feud quickly became more about Triple H and Stephanie, the Champion became more of a third wheel and lost the title with little fanfare at WrestleMania 18.

The match itself, whilst impressive, is often overlooked by fans, as it came after the incredible Rock-Hogan match earlier that night.
