After Triple H lost the title, he would feud with Chris Jericho, with the remaining members of D-Generation X (DX) by his side. Shane went on to form a short-lived stable with former Faction allies Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Big Show, Edge and Christian, known unofficially as The Conspiracy. These allies would help Shane capture the Hardcore Championship from Steve Blackman. Triple H, Shane, Stephanie, and Kurt Angle formed an alliance to win the WWF Championship from The Rock, but this alliance would crumble after a love triangle between Triple H, Stephanie, and Angle.
