Career
Debut in DXX and feud with Rated HBK
Jericho began his DXX career by signing an exclusive contract o the one show they had at the time. Jericho promised the fans that he would 'save them' from boring matches, unimaginative storylines and dull characters, immediately establishing himself as a heel with both the fans and the wrestlers backstage. He wouldn't wrestle his first match until over a fortnight later, where he took on one half of Rated HBK, Shawn Michaels, in a singles match as he had begun a personal rivalry with both members of the group. He won his first match, and the very next week defeated Edge. These wins were significant to Jericho's early rise as Rated HBK were DXX Tag Team Championships at the time, and from there he defeated current Heavyweight Champion Nabeel Nawaz to take his win/loss record to 3-0, all of his defeated opponents being a champion.
Title shortcomings
Because of this impressive start to his career Jericho was granted a Tag Team Title shot against Rated HBK, rather reluctantly teaming up with Dead Level. The team did not get along and Jericho walked out on his partner mid-match, enabling the Tag Team Champions to retain with ease. From there he gained a DXX World Title opportunity only a few days later, but again both he and Josh Impact came up short against the champion Nabeel Nawaz in a triple threat match. In Jericho's final match before the Massacre/Mayhem split he got back to winning ways, defeating Kevin Kbango.
Drafted to Massacre
At the end of November Chris Jericho was drafter to Monday Night Massacre as the second pick. In his first match he teamed with The Undertaker - again reluctantly - to compete in a seven team elimination match. This time however he stayed in the ring until his team were eliminated, presumably out of fear and respect for his partner. Jericho's next match was against John Cena where again he showed signs of respect for another member of the DXX roster, and he beat him cleanly thanks to his finishing move The Walls of Jericho.
By mid-December the General Manager of DXX Rocco Ross was developing difficulties with Rated HBK, who had been drafted to Massacre along with Jericho. Ross hand-picked Jericho as his partner to teach them both a lesson, and they were successful in doing so. This not only ended the differences the former Tag Team Champions had with the General Manager but it was also a personal measure of retribution from Jericho himself, finally defeating both men in a tag team bout.
