i think the Angle vs. Shane o Mac street fight kicks ass though (thats a lot of blood), and has kinda saved the PPV a bit so far

i had high hopes for the Undertaker vs. DDP, but that just royally sucked, i hope DDP comes back later

i tell ya, the main event better be pretty good

and edge winning KotR???  pfft

i think the street fight rocked, got pretty sloppy towards the end, cause it went so long, but itcirtainly made the PPV betta

they should start a Shane O Mac, Mick Foley, Jeff Hardy rivalry, then we would see some high risk fights, that would kick ass

ooh, Main event time...

main eevent still going, not bad, but nothing special so far...i think Austin will retain, then realise he doesnt need Mr. McMahon, and hopefully turn face again...he sucks as a heel

gah!  the double submission was too obvious, i thought it was gonna happen, but they talked about it too much, so i thought it was too obvious dammit

i thought the main event was a top match, great interuption by Booker T, and i was kind of going for Austin, and i think the crowd was kinda indefferent, after the rumours about taking the tile to WCW

only two good matches, but they were good to watch, even if both were slow to start.

I\'m on but I have no money to order the PPV. Sounds like its not worth it anyway.
Eh, too bad.

yeah, pretty ****ty PPV, street fight was the best match, and the main event took too long to start, give both of em 4/5

there was no Hardcore title match (test rox :)) no intercontinental title match (Kane vs. ALbert woulda rocked) and no European match (Matt Hardy rox)

take the individual titles from the hardyz, and make em win the tag titles, bring Shawn Michaels back and make him have a Stone Cold rivalry or sumthing, kill XPac (he just sux), and make Perri Saturn a commentator (that would just be funny)

man its gonna rock when all the injured (or otherwise) stars come back

i thought it pretty much explained everything

King of the Ring matches ~~

Yea but what else is there left for the NAO to do? They beat like everyone and I got tired of "Oh you didn\'t know..." God that got soooo annoying.

Whoever said make Perry Saturn a commentator is rite. He should take "Tazz\'s" (Cmon the 2 Z\'s is so gay) spot and Taz should fu*kin kill everyone! Cause in reality, he wopuld. I\'m not a huge Taz or wrestlng fan anymore but that\'s the truth.

He was hosting, and he definatly needs a major push... HE WON THE KING OF THE RING IN 1999 FOR HEVEANS SAKE!!!!

BTW, just because he\'s hosting doesn\'t mean he wont come back to TV.

I never watch wrestling. This is the first time I sat thru an entire event in years (since uh? The Ultimate Warrior?). I can\'t say I was impressed.

 The Street Fight was semi-cool, but lasted way to long.
 
The rest of it was just borin\', in my opinion. I know I would of been pissed off if I had paid for it (was at a friends).

IMO, this PPV gets a big thumbs down. The street fight was awesome, but that\'s about all it had.

As for the KOTR part, I can\'t say how disappointed I am, the way they did it this year SUCKED to say the least. 2 semi finals then the final, what a waste. They have to go back to the days when they had all the quarters THEN the semi\'s THEN the KOTR. It gave the King of the Ring title so much more meaning, not ONLY did you qualify and go that far, you also wrestled and won 3 matches in a row to get it.

As for the tag title match, sheesh. It\'s a given in the WWF now, if a suprise partner is announced, and kane isn\'t on the card, THE SURPRISE PARTNER WILL BE KANE. It\'s getting a bit old now, kane REALLY needs a push.

As for the UT vs. DDP match. I can\'t believe what I saw. ALL that buildup, and all we got was that. If I had have ONLY seen the title match, i would have told you that\'s the SOFTEST ending to a PPV match I\'ve ever seen. But the DDP vs. UT match took the cake. I have never ever been more disappointed in a match ending than that, and that\'s something cos I\'ve been watching the wrestling for over 10 years now.... Bob Backlund\'s win at Survivor Series \'94 (still my personal fave ppv ever) was up there, but this was just stupid. I at least thought he\'d come back and fight some more... geez

as for the title match, it was awesome through the middle, good wrestling match, but as i already said, what a WEAK ending. Especially seeing as that was the last match at the show.


VERY poor effort WWF, very poor.
