On the September, third edition of RAW, Christian snapped and turned on me. After I won a match against Lance Storm, Christian hugged me before hitting me with a steel chair. The jealous Christian had his chance to out-do me for once at Unforgiven. Towards the end of the hotly contested match, I went for a chair, but the referee stopped me. While the referee was interfering, Christian, hit me with a low blow and got the pin for his first Intercontinental Championship. I am proud we got to face each other for the Intercontinental Title. I loved working with and against Christian
(May 18, 2003 - July 7, 2003)
In mid-2003, Eric Bischoff shared his RAW powers with Stone Cold. On his first night with power on RAW, Stone Cold decided to bring back the Intercontinental Championship. He announced that the new champion would be the winner of a Battle Royal at Judgment Day. With the referee knocked out, Booker T eliminated Christian. However, since the referee wasn't coherent, Booker T couldn't be announced as the winner. WWE Hall of Famer, Pat Patterson, got ready to present Booker T with the belt. Christian knocked him out as well! As the referee was coming to, Christian threw Booker T out, winning the Intercontinental Championship for the second time.
(August 10, 2003 - September 29, 2003)

Edge and Christian vs. Too Cool (June 25, 2000 - September 24, 2000)
A month later, Christian and Edge won the tag team titles again. This time, it was against Too Cool in Boston. It was a good feeling for Christian knowing Vince had faith in him and his tag team partner Edge. Christian felt proud to be a two time Tag Team Champion.
Los Conquistadors vs. The Hardy Boys (October 22, 2000 - October 23, 2000)
Edge and Christian lost their chance to get a shot at the tag team titles. So, Christian and Edge changed their appearance and dressed up under masks. They were now called, " Los Conquistadors." Although they only held the titles for one night, at No Mercy, they defeated Matt and Jeff Hardy. Christian pinned Matt with the Unprettier (Now he calls this move, "The Killswitch.") This marked their third reign as tag team champions.
Edge and Christian vs. Bill Buchanan and The Goodfather
(December 10, 2000 - December 18, 2000)
Edge and Christian won their fourth Tag Team Championship, at Armageddon, in Birmingham, Alabama. It was a four corner match against Bull Buchanan and The Goodfather, The Dudleys, Road Dogg and K-Kwik. In the end, Edge speared Bubba Ray Dudley to end the match. This made them four time champions.
December 21, 2000- January 21, 2001
Edge and Christian vs. The Rock and The Undertaker
This match took place on SmackDown!, in Charlotte, North Carolina. It would be a rematch against The Undertaker and The Rock for The World Tag Team Championship Belts. On this night, Kurt Angle, would be the guest referee. Although ,The Rock had early control of the match, Kurt refused to make any counts. Kurt’s action earned him a Rock Bottom from Dwayne. Since, Kurt could no longer referee, Earl Hebner, was called. In the middle of the match, Hebner became distracted when Christian and The Undertaker battled outside the ring. The Rock gave Edge a “Spine Buster” and was about to pin him. Then, out of nowhere Kurt returned and gave The Rock, “An Angle Slam.” Kurt threw edge on top of the Rock, acted as the referee again and counted to three. The match was over. This was the fifth World Tag Team reign for Christian and Edge.
March 19, 2001- March 19, 2001
Edge and Christian vs. The Hardy Boys vs. The Dudleys
The Dudleys were originally supposed to face The Hardy Boyz for the World Tag Team Championship. However, Christian and Edge had other ideas. They came out claiming that The Dudleys were not in the arena and that they would happily take their place in a title match against The Hardy Boyz. Matt and Jeff accepted their invitation and it didn’t turn out well for them. Rhyno stormed the ring and hit Jeff with,” The Gore” allowing Edge to pick up the win. This would be the sixth time that Christian and Edge held the World Tag Team Championship. Before Christian and Edge even had time to celebrate, The Dudleys appeared and they had to face them later on in the evening. The Dudleys came out on top, making this one of the shortest reigns in WWE history.
April 1, 2001-April 30 2001
Edge and Christian vs. The Dudleys
This match took place at WrestleMania XXVII, at the Houston Astrodome. The Dudleys would be defending their tag team championship belts against Christian and Edge and The Hardy Boyz in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. This match was action packed as tables, ladders and chairs flew everywhere. To make a long story short, everyone spent a good portion of the match trying to climb one of the ladders and get the tag team championship belts. In the end, Rhyno, put Christian on his shoulder and Christian climbed the ladder, while Edge held Devon Dudley down. Christian then grabbed the belts making him and Edge seven time World Tag Team Champions. This by the way would be the last time that Christian and Edgewould hold the World Tag Team Championship belts together.
WWE Tag Champion
(July 21, 2002 - September 23, 2002)
Lance Storm
Myself and Hollywood Hogan, went into Vengeance, as the World Tag Team Champions. Christian, my former long-time tag team partner, paired up with Lance Storm to challenge for the titles. It appeared as though myself and Hogan had things well in hand. Then, Test came out and landed the a big boot on me. I was able to survive but then Chris Jericho came out and nailed me with one of the belts. This allowed Lance Storm to get the pin. The World Tag Team Championship was Storm's first and Christian's eighth.
(October 14, 2002 - December 15, 2002)
Chris Jericho
Christian, teamed up with Chris Jericho, to take on the World Tag Team Champions, Kane and The Hurricane. This match took place on an edition of Raw. Kane had a lot on his mind as he had just been accused of murder by Triple H. The Game stated he was responsible for the death of one of his ex-girlfriends from his past. Even with all of that weighing on Kane's mind, he put forth a strong showing. Chris Jericho used the ropes to help put a roll-up of The Hurricane and get the win. It marked Jericho's third World Tag Team Championship and Christian's ninth.
I think i should add a caption lol. The Dudley Boyz took their clothes on Raw. |
World Heavyweight Champion (2 time)
(May 1, 2011 - May 6, 2011)
Defeated Alberto Del Rio
After my retirement, Christian, was given the chance to become a World Champion. I had to vacate the World title so there was a Battle Royal on SmackDown! Christian won the Battle Royal and earned the opportunity to face Alberto Del Rio, in a ladder match, for the vacated World Title. Christian won that title (with a little help from me… of course). I was proud when I held up my best friend’s hand in victory as he captured his first WWE World Heavyweight Championship!
(July 17, 2011 - Present)
Defeated Randy Orton
Christian’s first title reign only lasted two days so, he was desperate to get that belt back. (the WWE record is 5 days) He had a match against Randy Orton at Money in the Bank. The stipulation was that if Randy got disqualified or counted out, Christian would automatically regain the world championship. Randy became infuriated after Christian spit in his face. He got disqualified and Christian won the title.
Thats the man we all call Christian! Captain Charisma will always be my best friend. Congrats man! YOU DID IT!!!! I knew you could, Now its time to show and prove why I also saw you as World Champion!
Until Next time...
