At WrestleMania, Triple H beat Chris Jericho to become the Undisputed WWE Champion. This WrestleMania headliner wasn't the first time these two Superstars had collided though.

Jericho and Triple H had a heated rivalry in the past, with the highlight of the feud being a WWE Championship match between the two on the April 17, 2000 edition of Monday Night RAW. Jericho picked up the win in a major upset, but the decision was soon reversed after Triple H forced official Earl Hebner to do so.
