Riga 38:
Un altro feud del roster di RAW, anche se d'importanza minore rispetto agli altri, fu quello tra [[Chris Jericho]] e [[Shawn Michaels]]. Inizialmente, Jericho si rivelò fan e amico di Shawn, dichiarando allo stesso Michaels di averlo ammirato fin da giovane e di essersi ispirato a lui per diventare wrestler. Michaels gradì molto le parole di Jericho, rispondendogli che anche lui nutriva grande stima e ammirazione nei suoi confronti. Tra i due nacque, così, una grande amicizia. La dimostrazione di ciò si ebbe alla Royal Rumble, nel corso del Royal Rumble match. Michaels e Jericho, infatti, entrati nel match rispettivamente come primo e secondo, decisero inizialmente di allearsi per eliminare gli altri avversari, per poi rimanere solamente loro due e giocarsi lealmente la vittoria finale. Qui, però, accadde un incredibile tradimento di Jericho ai danni di Michaels: mentre Shawn era sul punto di eliminare dal match [[Christopher Nowinski]], venne clamorosamente attacato alle spalle da Jericho, che lo gettò fuori dal ring eliminandolo. Michaels, infuriato e stupito al tempo stesso, dovette tornare negli spogliatoi, mentre Jericho proseguì tranquillamente il match. Qualche minuto dopo, altro colpo di scena, Michaels risalì irregolarmente sul ring, distraendo Jericho, che si fece eliminare da [[Andrew Martin|Test]]. Michaels e Jericho iniziarono, dunque, a picchiarsi ferocemente anche fuori dal quadrato, fino a quando non vennero divisi dalla sicurezza e riportati separatamente negli spogliatoi forzatamente<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/royalrumble/history/19881141/results/|accessdate=2008-02-22|title=WWE Royal Rumble (2003) Results|publisher=WWE}}</ref>. I due continuarono ad attacarsi regolarmente l'uno con l'altro, sia verbalmente che fisicamente,
nelle settimane di RAW successive. Vedendo che la situazione era ormai diventata ingestibile, Eric Bischoff si vide costretto a sancire un match tra i due a WrestleMania.
