4.0 out of 5 stars A very good pay-per-view, January 8, 2006
This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
No Way Out is definitely worth your money. This show, especially near the end, produced great matches.

1.Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty vs. The Basham Brothers and Shaniqua
(Tag Team Championship Handicap Match)
This was a great way to start the pay-per-view. The fact that it was a Handicap match for the tag titles made me want to watch it but the match was very solid. It was funny when Rikishi Banzai dropped Shaniqua. 8 out of 10.

2. Jamie Noble vs. Nidia (Noble must wrestle blindfolded)
This match really wasn't even a match, but you should watch it anyway because its kinda funny and it lasted about 5 minutes.
6 out of 10.

3. A.P.A. vs. The Worlds Greatest Tag Team (Tag Team Match)
This was a pretty weak match that could have definitely been better because of the two teams involved. 5 out of 10.

4. Hardcore Holly vs. Rhyno (Single Match)
What would have been better would be a hardcore match between these two but this is still a watchable match. 6 out of 10.

5.Rey Mysterio vs. Chavo Guerrero (WWE Cruiserweight Championship)
Now this is definitely one of the best Cruiserweight matches ever! This match had everything going for it-High-flying moves, Length,Chavo's dad getting knocked out,everything! 10 out of 10.

6.Kurt Angle vs. John Cena vs. Big Show (Triple Threat Match-Winner gets title shot at Wrestlemania 20)
This was definitely one of the best matches on the card but it had two problems that kept it from being the best. One:No Weapons and Two:Too Short. Still, its definitely a great match. 9 out of 10.

7.Brock Lesnar vs. Eddie Guerrero (WWE Championship Match)
This match was the best match on the card and one of the best matches I have seen at a Smackdown pay-per-view.(I'm not hating on Smackdown its just that their title matches aren't usually show-stealers). The match was kinda long(30 minutes) but that just made the match better. Everything in this match was spectacular except for the fact that Brock did have control for a lot of the match. 10 out of 10.

I give No Way Out 4 stars out of 5 and I think that everyone should see this great event.

I found this match pretty boring. No better than an average match on Smackdown. Also it was a filler really. 4/10

WWE Cruiserweight Title
Rey Mysterio V Chavo Guerrero
A fast paced match, and the first really good one of the night. Some great moves and lots of near falls. Also it was given enough time so it could be a great, high-flying match! 8/10

No. 1 Contender's Triple Threat match
Kurt Angle V Big Show V John Cena
This was a good match, all 3 got their finishers and there were loads of near falls. A great triple threat match! 8/10

WWE Title
Brock Lesnar V Eddie Guerrero
This was a lot better than I thought it would be. Eddie and Brock both put in a lot of effort, and there were some great moves. The crowd were really into it, and the end was brilliant. Match of the night easily! 8/10

Overall
This was an ok PPV from Smackdown. The final 3 maches saved what otherwise would have been a crap PPV.

4.0 out of 5 stars No Way Out 2004, March 8, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
As much as I wanted to give it 5 stars, I have to try not to be that biased towards the ending.

I haven't seen what extras are going to be on the No Way Out DVD yet. It may include the three-on-three tag match from Heat which, if you consider that the opener, was a pretty good match.

Torrie and Sable start us off. I'm not quite sure what the point of that was, but if you like Torrie and Sable, then there you go. You got your money's worth right there.

Scotty/Rikishi vs. Bashams/Shaniqua (Smackdown tag titles): I still can't believe Scotty and Rikishi are tag champions. This one was decent. Scotty and Rikishi hit their crowd pleasing spots, Rikishi squashed Shaniqua for good measure, and that was that.

Jamie Noble vs. Nidia (Noble is blindfolded): Yes, it's a crapfest, but it's an amusing crapfest for what it was. As long as you go into this match not expecting a Flair vs. Steamboat masterpiece, it's fairly enjoyable.

WGTT vs. APA: The battle over who has the most intimidating acronym, I suppose. Bradshaw's complete lack of psychology in this match (he's supposed to have an injured arm and yet uses it time and time and time again) is enough to make this amusing enough to have fun with. Plus, it has the right outcome with WGTT going over. You can't ask for much more than that from these two teams.

Goldberg is out to claim his front row seat which leads to the much anticipated face-to-face confrontation between Goldberg and Lesnar.

Rhyno vs. Hardcore Holly: If you get the DVD, do yourself a favor and press SKIP for this match.

Rey Mysterio vs. Chavo Guerrero Jr (cruiserweight title): What is this? Cruiserweights getting over 15 minutes in the WWE? Considering that Rey and Noble were given 3 minutes on Royal Rumble 2004, that in itself is enough to make me give a thumbs up to this match. The high spots were kept pretty tame, but Rey and Chavo clicked well, and interference was minimal, giving these two the chance to really go at it one-on-one.

Kurt Angle vs. Big Show vs. John Cena (#1 contendership): Pretty good match. I have to give the man his due, Big Show put in a good performance to keep up with Angle and Cena. If you want to see a piece of work, check out Angle vs. Cena from No Mercy 2003. That beats out their confrontation here, but it was still a good match with some nicely executed near falls at the end to build the suspense.

Brock Lesnar vs. Eddie Guerrero (WWE Title): The California crowd roaring its approval of Eddie Guerrero winning the WWE Title in his first ever WWE main event is reason alone to buy this DVD. Eddie's title win was one of the greatest moments I've seen in wrestling in a long time. This match goes just about to 30 minutes and is a masterpiece of mat work and ring psychology. Brock is proving more and more with every match that he deserves to be where he is, and Eddie was perfect in the underdog role. I saw the pay-per-view, and when the DVD comes out I'll be buying it for this match. If you're a true fan of wrestling, you owe it to yourself to do the same.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Crowning Moment for Eddie Guerrero, December 13, 2009
This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
I just recently picked this one up and it was fully worth the price i paid. While the mid-card was average and a bit dissapointing, the last three matches were really the cream of the crop (or great, sorry for being corny). Anyway, thanks for reading!

For some pointless reason, torrie and sable come out to welcome us to the show, um ok.

WWE Tag Team Championship
Scotty 2 Hotty and Rikishi vs. The Bashams and Shaniqua
This was actually a pretty decent and fun tag team match. The match had some nice, fast paced moves from scotty 2 hotty, and even some comedy moments between rikishi and shaniqua. Shaniqua got a couple of advantages in this match, even almost pinning rikishi for the win. The bashams threw around scotty for a majority, with rikishi coming for the save. Overall, this was a decently fun tag team matchup, but i don't think i would watch it again.
3.25/5

Blindfold Match
Jamie Noble vs. Nidia
This had disaster written all over it. This is a match that goes with the dissapointing mid-card. Once again, this is really a comedy match, with nidia running around, gaining the advantage with low drop kicks and even triping him. In the end, noble took off the blindfold of the beat nidia. Just for comedy, i guess.
2/5

The Worlds Greatest Tag Team vs. APA
This was shortly before jbl (bradshaw) turned heel, but i won't focus on that. This actually wasn't that bad of a match. Ron simmons and jbl used their power moves to try to stop the highflying of benjamin and hass. The bookers really empahsized jbl's arm injury, as the got the clothesline from hell on hass, but the hurt arm came into play, with benjamin got the advantage win from.
2.5/5

Hardcore Holly vs. Rhino
This immediatly started after the goldberg/lesnar/heyman confrontation, so this rushed going in and it was rushed throughout. By rushed it don't mean fast paced, this was a very slow matchup, with rhino using headlocks and body sizzors to keep holly down. Nothing here was really exciting, except the huge gore by rhino towards the end. Overall, this was a very pointless match and it showed.
2.5/5

WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Rey Mysterio vs. Chavo Guerrero
This was when no way out really picked up! This was one of the best encounters between the two. There are many breathtaking spots in this one that really kept me on the edge of my seat. Rey and chavo went all out, using ddts on the apron, sprinboards, hurricaranas, and a whole other asortment of highflying moves, even some unique submission moves done by chavo. The match was so entertaining throughout, with these two using some moves that i haven't even seen before. Rey and chavo put on a really good effort in this one, to provide an exciting match and a good, suprising finish.
4.5/5

#1 Contenders Triple Threat Match
Kurt Angle vs. Big Show vs. John Cena
At first i wasn't really looking forward to this match, but i was pleasently suprised. The match started out with angle and cena both trying to take out big show, which was unsucessful. Angle and cena were trying to out power show, with angle trying to suplex him of the apron and cena trying to knock him off, which led to a low blow by kurt. Angle and cena fought on the outside, with anlge gaining the advantage. The last few minutes were pretty exciting, with counters of the fu and the angle slam, false finishers, and a good display of power from show. After getting rid of show, cena tapped out to the wrestling machine in the end, which led to angle going to Wrestlemania. This looked only decent on paper, but had very good execution.
4/5

WWE Championship
Brock Lesnar vs. Eddie Guerrero
What a main event this was! Once again the bookers emphasized something here, as lesnar was considered the powerful bully and eddie was considered the do or die underdog, which made for a really good 30 minute main event. Throughout the match, we saw not only lesnars power, but athletasism, using moves like a high running knee, which guerrero eventually capitalized on, and using the ringpost to work on lesnar's knee. Eddie was powered around, getting multiple huge suplexes, but always trying to get back up, to take advantage. Goldberg would later get involved, to spear lesnar for earlier, which really didn't take away from the match. I had myself second guessing on what was going to happen throughout, but with one final frog splash, this proved to be eddie's crowing moment.
5/5

I really recommend this for a pick up, like i said, the mid-card is nothing special, but the last three matches are spectacular and it is classic seeing latino heat winning the wwe championship.

4.0 out of 5 stars Latino Heat Scores In A "SmackDown" Success, December 2, 2009
This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
Before I begin, I have a review of "WWE Tagged Classics: No Way Out 2004 / Backlash 2004" that will be pretty much the same thing that I type on this review. Because this was one of my favorite events from 2004, I felt it was worth posting something.

So, with that little caveat, I hope this review influences your purchase, or at least gives you a fun little read. Rock On!

*****NO WAY OUT 2004*****
Our show begins rather strangely, as Torrie Wilson and Sable to welcome us to the show. I don't know what the point of this was, but we soon get the traditional video package and pyro before the first match.

1) 3-on-2 Handicap Match - WWE Tag Team Championships
The Basham Brothers & Shaniqua v. Rikishi & Scotty 2 Hotty (champions)
---Ironically, none of these five superstars work with the WWE anymore. I actually really like this opener, mostly because it's WAY better than anybody could've guessed. Shaniqua hangs in there with the men well enough, the Rikishi "butt comedy" is kept to a minimum, The Bashams use good teamwork, and Scotty actually got some believable offense in. The match was a nice crowd energizer, in my opinion.
"7.5 / 10"
___________________________________________________

2) Blindfold Match
Jamie Noble v. Nidia
---This is actually misleading, as Noble is the only person who has to wear the blindfold. Anyway, I think people forget just how successful this duo was for the year-and-a-half leading up to this encounter. Keep in mind, the Cruiserweight division was awesome at this point, and fans loved to hate this lustful couple of vile rednecks. As for the Blindfold Match, you either enjoy these silly events, or you don't. Because the choreography was more skillful than usual, I was entertained enough.
"6.0 / 10" (perhaps an inflated score)
___________________________________________________

3) The World's Greatest Tag Team v. The APA
---Well, one of my all-time favorite tag teams takes on one of the most overrated tag teams (in my opinion). Regardless of which is which, this match is very boring, mostly because the two styles don't mix. Seeing Bradshaw and Faarooq in rest holds is dull TV, especially when you want Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjmain to explode with their creative offense. You have two older, slower veterans taking on two incredible athletes with a lot less experience. I guess you now know which team I prefer. Bottom line, skip this one.
"4.0 / 10"
___________________________________________________

Next up is an interesting segment where Goldberg takes his seat in the front row, which prompts WWE champion Brock Lesnar and "SmackDown" GM Paul Heyman to taunt and yell at the "RAW" superstar. The whole thing ends when Goldberg jumps the barricade and attacks Lesnar, which gets Goldberg arrested.
___________________________________________________

4) Hardcore Holly v. Rhyno
---In a neat booking segue, Hardcore Holly comes out to punch Lesnar (his opponent from last month), which inspires to Rhyno slug it out with Holly to start their schedule match for NO WAY OUT. Too bad that the following match is a lifeless sleep-inducer. Other than a few counters involving the Alabama Slam, I couldn't tell you what else happens. Look, both guys of these guys were never my favorites, but I've seen both of them enough to know they're capable of decent in-ring action. Other than the creative beginning, this one sucks.
"3.0 / 10"
___________________________________________________

5) Cruiserweight Championship
Chavo Guerrero (w/ Chavo Sr.) v.
Rey Mysterio (champion - w/ Jorge Paes)
---From this moment on, "No Way Out 2004" is a rousing success! We go from one of the worst PPV matches of the year to my favorite match of 2004, if not of of my all-time faves from the WWE. With respect to their impressive match at GREAT AMERICAN BASH a few months later, THIS one should've been on Mysterio's 3-disc set. Frankly, it's a shame that the WWE shelved the Cruiserweight division a few years ago, because matches like this can be show stealers. At this PPV, Chavo & Mysterio delivered a crisp near-perfect match with plenty of high-risk spots, flips & twirls, and smart submission wrestling. One of my criteria questions for Cruiserweight matches is, "Do the high risks make sense?" In this Chavo/Mysterio classic, they do, and they're practically flawless. There's also a bit of fun involving Chavo Sr. and boxer Jorge Paes. Honestly, I don't know why exactly they got involved in thie contest leading up to it, but they're only a small part of the big picturem, anyway. Will you call this one your Match-of-2004? Probably not, but I promise you'll like it a lot.
"9.5 / 10"
___________________________________________________

6) #1 Contender Match - Winner Goes To "WrestleMania XX"
Kurt Angle v. Big Show (United States champion) v. John Cena
---Because Chris Benoit defected to "RAW" after winning the 30-Man Royal Rumble, "SmackDown" needed a WWE Championship challenger. This is actually an interesting point in time, because Cena was increasingly popular, the giant Big Show was the U.S. champ, and Kurt Angle was already respected as one of the best in pro wrestling history. Any one of these men would've made good opponents for Brock Lesnar or Eddie Guerrero at the next PPV. The match starts off pretty funny when Cena and Angle keep daring each other to go one-on-one with Big Show. Eventually, the match becomes a very entertaining 3-way competition, in which any of the three wrestlers could've won. I think the key to a good triple threat match is when you can't predict the winner; from bell to bell, I can still remember how Kurt Angle almost didn't win his #1 Contender spot.
"7.0 / 10"
___________________________________________________

7) WWE Championship
Brock Lesnar (champion) v. Eddie Guerrero
---Our main event needs no introduction. Eddie Guerrero was always a hot commodity for "SmackDown", but this night instantly epitomized everything he worked so hard for, including his own life. Brock Lesnar was among the most physical of WWE champions, and really tossed & beat Guerrero's body for most of the match. I think people forget just how dominant Lesnar was in this match, with Guerrero barely hanging in there. It's actually a very good example of how a dominant villain & a beaten hero can create a very compelling underdog story. I personally don't like that Goldberg set up Lesnar's demise, especially since their "WrestleMania" sendoff is one of pro wrestling's most embarassing catastrophes. But then again, Guerrero's opportunism fits the character. With his Lie-Cheat-Steal motto, we can't help but love as our Latino Heat takes his decisive Frog Splash to victory. After all, why wouldn't that character take the WWE Championship for the very first time? Besides, even if you throw out all the backstory, this is one heck of a good main event!
"8.0 / 10"
___________________________________________________

In the end, "No Way Out 2004" was probably the only good PPV to ever come from "SmackDown" that year. But more than that, it's a good show that any wrestling company would be proud of. It has a really slow patch in the middle, but the last three matches are among the year's best.

3.0 out of 5 stars Eddie Guerrero Wins The Big One, June 5, 2007
By 
D.P. (California) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
From his beginnings wrestling during the intermission with his nephew Chavo in Mexico at age 9 to being Tiger Mask in Japan to wrestling infront of a sold out crowd in a bingo hall to being held down in a promotion because of politics to dealing & overcoming demons to becoming WWE Champion...this was Eddie Guerrero's biggest night in his career.

WWE Tag Team Champions Rikishi & Scotty 2 Hotty vs. Basham Brothers & Shanquia - This match was entertaining for me as it served it's purpose & get the crowd warmed up for the rest of the show. There really isn't much in the forms of great tag team wrestling but it's a match that served it's purpose.

Jamie Knoble (who's wrestling blindfolded) vs. Nidia - This match had some comedic spots but for the most part was just a boring filler match to get the onscreen breakup of them over with so Nidia can move to RAW the next month. This should have been on a PPV.

Hardcore Holly vs. Rhyno - This was another boring filler here as the match was really slow paced instead of it being a brawl which both men are best at.

APA vs. World's Greatest Tag Team - This was one of APA's better tag team matches as they did some good storytelling with Hass & Benjamin working on Bradshaw's arm & him actually selling it. Average match but it looks better than it was being in the position of the card that it was.

Crusierweight Champion Chavo Guerrero vs. Rey Mysterio - Out of all their series of matches this year...this was the best one they had. The crusierweight title was getting heavily pushed at this time so they were given plenty of time to go out there & tell a story in the match which worked out great & picked up the PPV with the live crowd.

Kurt Angle vs. John Cena vs. Big Show - All three men here put forth a good effort here to make this match worth wild. Show once again came off like a dominate monster instead of "Big Slow" as Cena & Angle worked on his at various times showing that he was THE THREAT in the match. Good storytelling by Cena as well as he was selling his bad knee that he got at the Rumble while Angle was in his prime during this match. Awesome triple threat.

WWE Champion Brock Lesnar vs. Eddie Guerrero - Match of the night right here as both men clicked & put on a great mat-based wrestling match with Brock just not being able to beat Eddie no matter what he throws at him. It's too bad Brock leaves a month later because I wanted to see a rematch between these two later on. Eddie didn't look inferior of the Lesnar & Goldberg did interfear very quickly but it doesn't take away from the end result of Eddie winning the championship & going straight into the people to celebrate. Eddie Guerrero finally won the big one.
(Also available on Eddie Guerrero's "Cheating Death, Stealing Life")

Overall, the best matches on here were the main events & the crusierweight title match as the rest of the card was either average to just plain boring. You can pick up the Eddie/Brock match on a DVD that has more quality matches so if your interested in the triple threat & crusierweight title match...I recommend for a rental or at a cheap price. Otherwise, I'd pass.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great event. One of the best WWE produced PPV's I've seen, May 18, 2007
This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
Truly, I wasn't expecting much save for warm-up for the PPV before the legendary Wrestlemania XX, but this one on its own was spectacular when compared to the likes of Armageddon 2003 or Insurrextion 2003. I've never been a fan of Smackdown, but this one really impressed me.

Individually, most of the matches were good, but there were some exceptions.


WWE Tag Team Championship Handicap Match
Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty vs The Basham Brothers and Shaniqua
All in all, this wasn't a great match, but somehow these five managed to make it a good one. Shaniqua involved in the match was also interesting, as WWE treats its Women's division like it wasn't there, and she actually did some wrestling and got attacked by Rikishi. (6/10)


Jamie Noble vs Nidia
Seeing Nidia in Tough Enough really makes it hard for us to get into this gimmick of hers without a proper suspension of disbelief, but still, this match wasn't so much a match. Jamie Noble is blindfolded, and Nidia childishly kicks his butt from behind and taunts him. The ending was dissatisfying, but at least it was over quickly. (1/10)


A.P.A. vs World's Greatest Tag Team
Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin are great technical wrestlers, and Faarooq and Bradshaw are just brawlers. The way these two teams worked with one another was really impressive. (7/10)


Hardcore Holly vs Rhyno
Virtually nothing of this match was memorable. I can't remember anything good about this match except that it was short. This is the sort of forgettable match you don't want to see on a pay per view, like Goldust vs Rico at Insurrextion 2003. (0/10)


WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Rey Mysterio vs Chavo Guerrero
I read some other reviews saying this was a great match. I think Rey Mysterio in the WWE is like a bird with his wings clipped, if not cut off altogether. You need only to watch some of his legendary matches in ECW or AAA or WCW, versus such people as Psicosis, Dean Malenko, and Eddie Guerrero to understand his immense talent. With WWE's watered-down booking, he's literally like a bird without wings. Chavo isn't very good on his own either, and in the middle of the match, I literally nodded off, almost fell asleep, and came to some time later without remembering what had happened before. A boring match. (3/10)


#1 Contender's Match
Kurt Angle vs John Cena vs The Big Show
John Cena is a joke. Whoever on the writing staff decided this guy was worthy of WWE championship and holding it for months on end without losing should be fired, at the very least. Kurt Angle is an amazing athlete, and he works well with the flat dud Cena. Even The Big Show is impressive in his own right, and seeing Angle barely pull off Olympic Slams on him is a shocking sight. Cena was a useless addition, in my opinion, as the stars of this match were clearly Angle and Big Show. (8/10)

WWE Championship Match
Brock Lesnar vs Eddie Guerrero
This was the highlight of the night without a doubt. Brock Lesnar I had always thought to be a big, dumb, blank-faced thug so thickly muscled that he could barely move. Aside from the fact that I'm totally wrong about that, he and Eddie Guerrero put on a great match that lasted over half an hour. At first I was worried (since I knew Guerrero would win) that Lesnar was dominating Guerrero too much early on in the match, but there was another 20 minutes to go, and Guerrero really played the underdog great, and did enough damage to Lesnar to justify a victory. The only flaw in this was that Goldberg came out and gave Lesnar a spear, potentially cheapening the victory for Guerrero, but they went on for a while longer. Best match I've seen between these two so far. (10/10)



I have to add the Sunday Night Heat bonus match in the extras

Tajiri, Akio, and Sakoda vs Ultimo Dragon, Paul London, and Billy Kidman
A ten out of ten match. I can't believe this one was regulated to Sunday Night Heat and not included into the pay per view. I haven't seen this sort of teamwork between Tajiri and his gang than in any tag team since the Hardy Boyz. It was also the first time I've seen a triple dropkick before. Everyone here is a cruiserweight, technical wrestler or high flyer, and it works like freaking poetry. (10/10)


Absolutely one of the best pay per views I've seen from WWE in a while (not including WWF events). Solid performances all around, save for a few weak links.

This review is from: WWE No Way Out 2004 (DVD)
I just wanted to let everyone know that my local Wal-Mart has just put out a huge display of old wwe wrestling dvds. No Way Out 2004 was one of them. The price?? how about $3.88 brand new unopened!!! So, for old those sellers selling this for $7.00 to $8.00 used, you better come down, cause Wal-Mart has it for $3.88 NEW! oh, and there is no shipping charges at Wal-Mart..The used price for this should be around 1.00.
