5.0 out of 5 stars
Tables, ladders, chairs, straps, what else?,
By Mike Sweeney (Salisbury, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: WWE - Unforgiven 2000 (VHS Tape)
Philadelphia, PA. The most unforgiving night in unforgiven. I loved this ppv because they used tables, ladders, chairs, straps, and other things but it wasn't all in one match.Here are the matches: 1. 8 man tag match: Dudley Boyz & APA vs. Right to censor 2. Strap match: Jerry "the king" Lawler vs. Tazz 3. Harcore open invitational for the WWF hardcore title: Steve Blackman vs. Crash vs. Al Snow vs. Sho Funaki vs. Test (w/Trish Stratus) vs. Perry Saturn (w/Terri) 4. X-Pac vs. Chris Jericho 5. Tag Team steel cage match for the WWF Tag Team Titles: Edge & Christian vs. Hardy Boyz 6. Intercontinential Championship match: Eddie Guerrero (w/Chyna) vs. Rikishi 7. Triple HHH (w/Stephanie McMahon Helmsley) vs. Kurt Angle with Mick Foley as Special guest Referee 8. Fatal Four Way for the WWF title: The Rock vs. Chris Benoit vs. The Undertaker vs. Kane. You should get this movie because all of the matches were great.

OH MY GOSH! STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN IS COMING BACK! HE'S GOING TO GET REVENGE! HE'S GOING TO RAISE HELL!
......Whatever. Could the WWF have picked a worse night to bring back the most popular wrestler in history? UNFORGIVEN 2000 is a miserable 3 hours with too few bright spots. 1) Right To Censor v. The APA & The Dudley Boyz ---Alright, this one isn't too bad. It's a predictable but acceptable opener to watch four self-righteous hypocrites get beaten up by four less-than-moral wrestlers. The match moves at a nice pace, has the familiar hot tags when our good guys dominate the bad guys, and even though RTC sneaks in the pinfall, The Dudleyz & APA get some table revenge. Back in 2000, this was already a cliché. But at least it's not boring. "6.0 / 10" ______________________________________ 2) Strap Match Jerry Lawler v. Tazz ---"The King" won their previous match from a month ago. Guess who's gonna win this one. Tazz rarely got a chance to do his thing in the WWF, and Lawler could only do so much at this age. It's a great shock to see Raven make his debut appearance (to my knowledge). But otherwise, this is a passable match at best. "5.0 / 10" ______________________________________ 3) 6-Man Hardcore Invitational - 10 Minute Time Length Hardcore Championship Crash Holly v. Test v. Al Snow (European champion) v. Perry Saturn v. Funaki v. Steve Blackman (Hardcore champion) ---When the action is in the ring or at ringside, there are some nice high-risk spots. When the six start brawling in the crowd, the cameras do a pretty poor job of keeping up. It just becomes a meandering battle until the closing minutes. Like most of what you'll see from UNFORGIVEN 2000, this Hardcore Title contest is average. "5.5 / 10" ______________________________________ 4) Chris Jericho v. X-Pac ---Anyone know why X-Pac was still using the DX gimmick when the faction had already disbanded? Never mind. This is the most technical display from this PPV, and it's a solid showing from two gifted athletes. Jericho already had a successful first year with the WWF, and X-Pac (though annoying to most audiences) had some sweet physical skills. This is an even-handed contest that earned its PPV airtime. "7.0 / 10" ______________________________________ 5) Steel Cage Match - Tag Team Championships Edge & Christian (champions) v. The Hardy Boyz ---This match is often overshadowed by the legendary Ladder/TLC Matches we saw for almost a year straight. While not as memorable as those other high-risk displays, this is still an excellent match. These four guys mesh so well together, that it's almost like poetry-in-motion (forgive the pun). What more do I need to say? This is a fast-paced showdown with plenty of stunts that no human being should ever attempt. "8.0 / 10" ______________________________________ 6) Intercontinental Championship Eddie Guerrero (champion) v. Rikishi ---There's a very funny storyline, with a jealous Eddie desperately trying to prevent Chyna from showing off her sexual appeal. It's kinda like the Marc Mero & Sable angle from 1998, and equally funny, too. But this match is a real letdown. I have no problem with matches that push storylines more than the in-ring action. But for crying out loud, Rikishi and Eddie were two athletes capable of giving us at least 10 minutes, and still push the angle. Instead, this whole schmoz was about 5 minutes. All in all, I was bored, disappointed, and felt cheated...and lied to, and stolen from. (SWISH!) "4.0 / 10" ______________________________________ 7) No Disqualifications Kurt Angle v. Triple H ---Now this is more like it! I always enjoyed the love triangle between Angle, HHH, and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. Heck, I even liked Stephanie the character! But what I like even more is how well these two work together. This became a No-DQ contest earlier this evening, and in my opinion, it makes more sense for the rivalry, and inspired a much better match than we would've gotten. The action gets pretty rough, especially after a Spanish table spot leaves HHH spitting up blood (Angle got a legitimate concussion from this table a month earlier). The aftermath includes a kiss between a bloody pair of lips...THAT'S HARDCORE! Back in 2000, Kurt Angle alternated between crisp technician and dorky jobber. Thankfully, this is more of the latter. Even more strange was seeing HHH in a pesudo-babyface role back in 2000. Unlike the IC Title Match, this is a great way to advance a storyline AND deliver great action. "Advance?" Actually, I don't remember this storyline actually finishing after this PPV...hmm...oh well, this is good enough. "8.0 / 10" ______________________________________ ***Throughout the evening, `Stone Cold' Steve Austin basically did whatever he wanted to whomever he wanted backstage. His return culminates with Shane McMahon telling him --- in the ring --- who was responsible for running into him 10 months ago. In an amusing but stupid development, Steve Blackman is blamed because of some Parking Lot Brawl from a year ago. Anyway, this segment goes on and on, with Shane getting Stunned...Austin celebrates...then he gets Stunned again (okay)...Austin celebrates...Shane gets Stunned third time (WTF!). I mean, could this have gone on any longer!? "4.0 / 10" (Nice to have Steve Austin back, but this was incredibly long). ______________________________________ 8) WWF Championship The Undertaker v. Kane v. Chris Benoit v. The Rock (champion) ---Well, I hope you hate technical wrestling, because there are nothing but punches and kicks and a few slams for almost 20 minutes. Fun, huh? This is easily the worst Fatal Fourway I have ever seen, and definitely one of the WWF/WWE's worst PPV main events. Other than a neat repeat of Benoit stealing the win, and getting his victory reversed by Mick Foley (this happened 3 months ago with Benoit), this match is just really boring. These four guys (even the giant Kane) could do great things in one-on-one or tag team action. But instead of letting the wrestlers have some neat singles or triple threat skirmishes, it's just a repetitive brawl with almost no sensible pace. Basically, I hate this match, and I feel bad that these four guys didn't shine more. I don't who's to blame, but this is definitely "UNFORGIVEN". "3.0 / 10" ______________________________________ The WWF had a good year in 2000, but their PPV lineup was pretty average. UNFORGIVEN, however, is below average. It doesn't feel like a PPV. It feels like hodgepodge of ideas, with only a few of them reaching their potential. The Steel Cage Match and HHH/Angle grudge match are excellent. The undercard is pretty mediocre, but I can accept that. What I can't accept is the most popular superstar in wrestling history having a boring return segment, and four of the WWF's top guys engaging in a boring showdown, especially with their talents. So, bottom line: Avoid UNFORGIVEN 2000. I'm sure you can find its highlights on YouTube, anyway.
