Let's be honest: fans of the WWF love a good soap opera as much as, if not more than, the matches they produce. If that's the case, SummerSlam 2000 must rank as one of the great WWF pay-per-views in the last several years. At the center is the climax of the infamous love triangle that Vince McMahon and his gaggle of writers concocted during the year 2000. The main event here is a triple-threat match for the WWF title, held by the Rock, but really, his presence is secondary to the other two men involved, Triple H and Kurt Angle. For these two men, it's personal, as both are in love with the same woman, Triple H's wife, Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. This DVD goes to great lengths to document the history leading up to the match, and it's essential to enjoying the PPV. Also, other histories are included, lending the soap-opera feel to all of the matches. While the tremendous main event is reason enough to buy this DVD, other smaller matches fortify it. For example, you get the boss's son, Shane McMahon, falling 50 feet from a support beam. You get an announcer getting involved in a match and smashing a glass jar in a wrestler's face. Oh yeah, and there's also some impressive old-school wrestling... but, really, who cares about wrestling when you're watching a wrestling match in the WWF? --Dave McCoy

5.0 out of 5 stars This is how to do a wrestling PPV!, November 8, 2000

This review is from: WWE - SummerSlam (VHS Tape)

I have seen every SummerSlam except 1989, and I have to say that S'Slam 2000 is the best so far. It ranks up there with Backlash 2000, and just narrowly beats Judgment Day 2000 for card of the year. The WWF proved why they are the industry leader, and added on to their so far tremendous year for PPVs.

The TLC Match will rightly be claimed Match of the Year, as it was slightly better than the Triangle Ladder Match featuring the same three teams at this year's WrestleMania.

The main event showed that the WWF is in a class of it's own as far as storyline-based matches are concerned.

The opening six man tag match was enjoyable; the Undertaker vs. Kane non-match was decent; and the Benoit vs. Jericho match was very good, if a little bit shorter than it shoud, have been. The Thong Stinkface Match was awful, but the whole point was to show women in skimpy costumes - and it worked for me!

Shane McMahon is a bump machine, and his fall from the 30 feet tower was a big shock.

Combine all the great action with a live crowd, and this is another example of the dominance that Vince McMahon's WWF has over the wrestling business. It was worht staying up to 4 o'clock in the morning here in the UK, and is highly recommended by me, and all the most reliable websites such as 1Wrestling.com and PWTorch.com.

You've got to see this PPV at least once!
