He still wants to be the No. 1 guy in the group (chat).

Jax Taylor blasted his “House of Villains” co-star Shake Chatterjee in a series of leaked texts from a group chat they’re in with the rest of their castmates.

“Remind me what you’re doing again Shake?” the “Vanderpump Rules” alum began in the messages, which Chatterjee shared with the public via his Instagram Stories.

The “Love Is Blind” alum responds, “I’m just practicing as a veterinarian. Pretty lame :/. I agree you’re way cooler.”

Taylor, 44, then attempts to grandstand by asking Chatterjee to “settle” their dispute by sharing how much they were paid to be on their E! reality show.

The vet replies, “Jax I don’t know what meds you’re on or which ones you need to be on but you win. I concede. You’e the bigger/better/cooler man.”

The dig about his mental health seemingly set off Taylor even more because he then slammed Chatterjee further by stating he is “out of his league” and “one and done” in the reality TV world.

When the ex-Netflix star says he wants to “drop” the fight and “focus on the positive,” the former Bravolebrity continues, “Talk to me when you’ve been on tv as long as long as I have go back to doing house calls for old ladies with cats …”

Chatterjee then roasts Taylor for how long it apparently took him to come up with his diss and the “Pump Rules” alum says of the delay, “Sorry Iam [sic] filming a show … couldn’t get to my phone what are you doing? Feeling up a cat?”

He adds, “You’re a loser dude … You are a one and done … pathetic … stick to touching animals.”

Chatterjee briefly leaked screenshots of the chat before claiming that E!, the network behind “House of Villains,” asked him to “take the receipts down.”

The reality villains’ feuds stems from when they were filming their show together.

On “House of Villains,” Taylor boasted to Chatterjee about how much money he makes from brand deals due to him being on “Vanderpump Rules” for so many years.

The conversation left a bad taste in the vet’s mouth because he shared what was said with other castmates — but Taylor overheard him snitching.

“I tried to give him some pointers, I tried to say, ‘Hey, you’ve got to use this as a platform for other things, for your social media, for your business,'” the Jax’s Studio City bar owner said in a confessional.

“So, I’m trying to tell him. I’m giving him free knowledge and I just feel like I’m playing this f–king game the wrong way.”

In another scene, Taylor called out Chatterjee for his history of “degrading” women on national television, but was ultimately eliminated first from the reality competition show.

“House of Villains” airs Thursdays on E! at 10 p.m. ET.
