The faction met with some success, with X-Pac winning the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship once, the WCW Cruiserweight Championship once and Albert winning the WWF Intercontinental Championship once.

History

X-Factor was formed on the February 12, 2001 episode of Raw is War when Justin Credible made his WWF debut by assisting X-Pac during an attack by Chris Jericho. The two formed a tag team and were soon joined by Albert, who served as the faction’s enforcer.

At Backlash in April, X-Pac and Credible defeated the Dudley Boyz following interference from Albert. [2] X-Factor continued to compete as a trio in tag team and six-man tag matches throughout the spring, but suffered losses to teams such as the Hardy Boyz and failed to win a tag team turmoil match at Judgment Day. In June 2001, X-Factor reached its peak when X-Pac captured the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship and Albert won the Intercontinental Championship on the same week of programming. [3] [4]

During the Invasion storyline, X-Factor broke up when Credible joined The Alliance in July 2001. [5]
