Chris Jericho is a true pro wrestling legend, with his career starting all the way back in 1990. A few years later, the Canadian made it to ECW and WCW after an impressive run on the independent scene. Jericho eventually joined WWE (still known as WWF at the time) in August 1999, where he wrestled on-and-off for the next two decades.<\/p>\n

Y2J won the WWE Championship once, the World Heavyweight Championship three times, and the WCW Title twice. Now, seven years after joining AEW, Jericho’s name is being associated with his former employer again. Thus, it’s the perfect time to go back and rank all of his world title runs in WWE. Enjoy!<\/p>\n Everyone knows Chris Jericho became the first Undisputed Champion in WWE history at Vengeance 2001. What isn’t often mentioned is that Jericho became the last WCW World Champion ever in the process. The Rock held the once-prestigious Big Gold Belt heading into Vengeance’s mini-tournament, and lost it to Jericho.<\/p>\n The WCW Title was technically on the line one final time in the main event, as Y2J faced then-WWF Champion Steve Austin. Jericho won thanks to Booker T’s interference, retiring the WCW Championship while also capturing the WWF\/E Championship for the first (and only) time in his career.<\/p>\n Since the WCW Title was retired on that very same day, the reign can’t be any higher on this list.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chris Jericho was on fire in 2008, and it made all the sense in the world for him to win his first World Heavyweight Championship at Unforgiven. However, Jericho’s title reign was interrupted when he randomly lost to Batista at Cyber Sunday. Just eight days later, Jericho regained the title in a controversial Steel Cage Match<\/a> on the November 3, 2008 edition of Monday Night Raw. The title was back with the company’s top heel… but it didn’t last long.<\/p>\n RELATED: Every WWE World Title Match At Survivor Series In The 2000s, Ranked<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n WWE announced John Cena would get a title shot in the main event of Survivor Series. The show took place in Cena’s hometown of Boston that year, and Cena defeated Jericho for the belt after a solid match. It’s hard to argue with this booking decision, but it’s a shame that Jericho didn’t get a longer championship run during this era. Instead, Jericho feuded with WWE legends heading into WrestleMania 25, before getting drafted to SmackDown.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chris Jericho and Big Show dominated WWE’s tag team division in the second half of 2009. The duo known as Jeri-Show was formed after Edge – Jericho’s original tag team championship partner – suffered a nasty injury. Edge made his return at Royal Rumble 2010, eliminating Jericho before winning that year’s Rumble Match.<\/p>\n A month later, Chris Jericho won SmackDown’s Elimination Chamber Match after Shawn Michaels infamously superkicked The Undertaker.<\/p>\n Jericho picked up the pieces and won his third World Heavyweight Championship, and sixth WWE world title overall. As the Royal Rumble winner, Edge challenged his former partner to a title match at WrestleMania 26.<\/p>\n The two Canadians had an intense match at that year’s Showcase of the Immortals, and Jericho cheated to retain the gold. Jericho’s reign didn’t last much longer, though. Edge speared Y2J on the following SmackDown, allowing Mr. Money in the Bank Jack Swagger to capitalize<\/a>.<\/p>\n While Chris Jericho wasn’t as hot as he’d been back in late 2008, the intense feud with Edge elevates this title reign.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n6. 2nd WCW Championship Reign (December 9, 2001)<\/h2>\n
