He says not only did he win the Intercontinental Championship but he would've won the Royal Rumble too if he was in it.

JERICHO FACES THE SECOND RADICAL.
Chris Jericho comes down to the ring and gets on the microphone. Jericho says he's losing sleep, he cant eat, he can't sing, he cant even go to the grocery store without looking over his shoulder. Last week, Jericho faced off against the first Radical member Dean Malenko, Malenko said there's more to members of the Radicals to come and make Jericho's life a living hell. He calls out Malenko, Malenko enters the arena and tells Jericho that don't worry, you wont be wrestling tonight. Jericho says he wants to know who the other Radical members are. Malenko says "if you really want to know, just turn around". Jericho turns around and comes face to face with PERRY SATURN. Saturn waves at Jericho before applying the Rings of Saturn. Jericho starts tapping out quickly while Malenko laughs at Jericho. The first two Radicals are here! Dean Malenko and Perry Saturn.
Its not getting any easier for the WWF Intercontinental Champion as he finds out who the second Radical member is. |

Taka Michinoku...Jericho laughs at Taka and says "Really? thats the best you got, and easily beats up Taka. Saturn gets on the microphone and says "Jericho, Taka isnt the third member, THIS GUY IS and out through the crowd comes EDDIE GUERRERO. Eddie hits Jericho with the Frog Splash before going up the ramp to celebrate with his Radical members" Guerrero gets on the mic and says "Jericho, if you want to find out who the final member of the Radicals are, you're going to have to wait until No Way Out"
