This one of the best PPV's the WWF has made. First up is an eight team battle royal where you get eliminated by being thrown over the top rope, for the No. 1 Contendership for the Tag Team Belts with the following teams: The Dudley Boyz, Edge and Christian, The HeadBangers, The Hardy Boyz, Mean Street Posse, The Godfather and Mark Henry, The Acolytes, and Too Cool. Next up is Steve Blackman trying to end the undefeated streak of Kurt Angle. Next is a 4 way Evening Gown in a Pool Match for the Women's Championship, between Ivory, Jacqueline, B.B., and Miss Kitty, with a nice surprise at the end. After that is the Super Heavyweights Match: Rikishi Phatu and Viscera vs. The Holly cousins. A Triple Threat Match for the European title between Val Venis, The Bulldog, and D'Lo Brown is next. After that, it's X-Pac vs Kane in a Steel Cage Match. The rematch for the Intercontinental title is next, between Chyna and the Y2J Chris Jericho. The Tag Team Titles are on the line as The New Age Outlaws face The Rock 'n Sock Connection. The WWF title match is next, between The Big Show and the Big Boss Man. Finally, the best match on the PPV: the main event between Vince McMahon and Triple H in a No Holds Barred Match, where if Vince wins, Triple H must divorce Stephanie McMahon. If Triple H wins, he stays married to Stephanie, and he gets a WWF title shot. This match also has a surprise at the end. Overall, this PPV is one of the best PPV's the WWF has made, along with No Mercy 1999 and Fully Loaded 1999.

Armageddon was the best WWF ppv of 99! I have watched it many times. The best matches were the tag team battle royal, Chyna VS Chris Jericho, and Vince VS Triple-H. They fought all over the place; from the ring, all the way to the parking lot. The best hardcore match ever!

This tape is really great. All the matches (except the Viscera/Rikishi match and the Evening gown match) are pretty good. Here are the matches and what I think of them:

1. The Acolytes def. Edge/Christian, The Dudleys, Godfather/Mark Henry, Too Cool, The Mean Street Posse, The Hardys, and (some other team I forget) in an 8-team battle royal to get a shot at the Tag Titles at the Rumble 2000 - not too bad I guess. Just a regular battle royal. This featured some of my favorite teams (Acolytes, Hardys, Edge/Christian/Dudleys) so it was pretty good. Rating: 9/10

2. Kurt Angle def. Steve Blackman - good match here with Angle winning with a German Suplex? I guess the match wasn't too bad. Pretty solid all the way through. Rating: 8/10

3. Miss Kitty wins an Evening Gown Match to win the Women's title - I forget (once again!) the names of who competed in this match. Was ok for the women to have, but after the match Miss Kitty takes her bra off. Rating: 6/10

4. Hardcore Holly/Crash def. Viscera/Rikishi - nothing special or great about this match. Thats all I can say about this one. Rating: 5/10

5. Val Venis def. D'lo Brown and The British Bulldog in a Triple Threat Match to win the European Title - this was acually one of my favorite matches of the night. Very solid and consistent all the way through. Rating: 10/10

6. Kane def. X-Pac in a Steel Cage Match - not too bad, but maybe could have gone on a bit longer. We saw Kane jump from the top of the cage with a clothesline, so that was pretty good. Wasn't all that brutal like I was hoping it could be, but any event with Kane from 1997-1999 is worth buying. :D Rating: 9.5/10

7. Chris Jericho def. Chyna to win the Intercontinental Title - not a bad match either. Jericho makes Chyna tap to the Walls of Jericho. Rating: 9/10

8. The New Age Outlaws def. The Rock and Sock Connection to retain the Tag Titles - good match here with Rock and Billy Gun beating the hell out of each other. Match ends with Al Snow attacking Mankind, resulting in a DQ finish. Rating: 9/10

9. The Big Show def. Big Boss Man to retain the WWF Championship - I thought this match would be great but wasn't. A WWF Championship match just can't be like 3 or 4 minutes long. I'm going to give it a good rating only because we saw Albert get chokeslammed through the announce table. Rating: 8/10

10. Triple H def. Vince McMahon in a No Holds Barred match - this match was worth the entire price of the tape altogether. This match was VERY brutal. What it is is about 30 minutes of Vince/Triple H just beating the hell out of each other. Rating: 11/10 (that was intentional, meaning this was one of my favorite matches ever in the WWF)

So, basically this PPV could have had better matches, such as the WWF Championship match and the Viscera/Rikishi match, but it went ok. If you like hardcore matches, be sure to get this one as the main event is FILLED with that, and the steel cage/WWF title matches have a little bit of it, but not much.

WWF Armageddon is one of the best PPV's of 1999. This is one intensly charged PPV, with a few titles on the line. The matches are: 1-Kurt Angle vs. Steve Blackman 2-Tag Team Battle Royal to determine the # 1 contenders for the Tag Titles at the Royal Rumble 2000. 3-Super Heavyweight match: Rikishi& Viscera vs. The Holly cousins. 4-Pool match for the WWF Women's Championship: Miss Kitty(AKA The Kat)vs. Jacqueline vs B.B. vs. Ivory. 5-European Championship: British Bulldog vs. Val Venis.

6-Tag Team Title match: The Rock & Mankind vs. New Age Outlaws 7-Intercontinental Title match: Chris Jericho vs. Chyna 8-WWF Championship match: Big Show vs Big Bossman 9-No Holds Barred match: Triple H vs. Vince McMahon(If Triple H wins, his marriage to Stephanie McMahon is legal and he gets a WWF title match. However, if Vince wins, Triple will never get a title match, and the marriage to Stephanie is off.)

Next with US WWF NO MERCY this is the best PPV of 1999, The only flaw is that there was a weak WWF Championship match Big Boss Man vs The Big Show in a 3 minute match very short and easy for The show stopper i give this match a 5/10 But there are so many other good match Y2J Chris Jericho vs Chyna is one of the best IC Championship match in a long time very good match i give it an 8/10 Another super Match Is Kane vs X-Pac in a Steel Cage what a match this was a classic i think 8+/10 And also my second best match of the night ROCK&SOCK vs New Age Outlaws in the best Tag Team Championship match of 1999 The only thing is AL Snow interfeard The Rock and Mankind had the match won but they won it on DQ instead still the best Tag Team Championship match of 1999 8+/10 And then theres the best match on this PPV Mr McMahon vs The Game Triple H in the best No Holds Barred match that i have ever seen amazing Vince gives every thing he had and it was awesome how Vince was beating the hell out of HHH McMahon gave HHH one hell of A match this is a classic 10/10 a super match up, there are more good matchs like the European Championship with the bulldog vs D'LO and Val Venis in one of the best EP title match since X-Pac took on Shane McMahon at WM 15 7/10 and the Evening Gown match this was hot Miss kitty gives the fans what they want 8/10 also theres a good tag team Battel Royal 7+/10 and Steve Blackman vs Kurt Angle 5/10 and The Super Heavyweight match 6/10, overall i give this PPV an 8+/10 one of the best of 1999 next with WWF No Mercy.

Now, the one great point about Armageddon is that it beats the previous pay-per-view, Survivor Series, by a country mile. However, this show was not the wonder that we should have expected to cap off 1999.

Stars worthy of credit include the Hardy Boyz and the Acolytes, who excelled themeselves in the opening tag team battle royal. Kudos also to Chris Jericho and Chyna, who managed to better their performance the previous month, and pull out a really entertaining contest. And, a bit of sportmanship at the end from the loser. Blimey!

If I had bullets, they would go into the head of the Big Show and the Big Boss Man, who stunk out the building in a 5 minute snooze-fest that should have been a spectactular World Title culmination to a really disgusting and tasteless storyline - watch the bio before, you'll see what I mean.

As far as Triple H and Vince McMahon's streetfight go, it was fine, but way too long, and way to gimmick-filled. They stroll around outside the building for a good 5 minutes, doing bugger all. Yet the ending is strong, and the post-match action is worthy of you purchasing this. I knew what was going to happen, I wonder if you did/will.

Overall, not a bad show, but not great either. If you want to buy a rip roaring pay-per-view, wait until next month, when the Royal Rumble is released.

1. Edge & Christian V. Hardy Boyz V. Dudley Boyz V. Acolytes V. Headbangers V. Too Cool V. Mean Street Posse V. Godfather & Mark Henry in a tag team battel royal_ this was prboloy the best choice as an opener. I would say that this maatch had its ups and downs with good teams like the hardys edge and christian and the dudleys but people like mark henry ruin this match. Anway this was a goo dfast paced match and given its time when its all said and done a job well done. Winner the Acolytes. Match Rating 7.5/10.

2. Kurt Angle V. Steve Blackman- Not that bad of a match. this was deffenityly not one of angls classics as even he could not carrie balckman thorugh this match. Not horriable match but one that could have been btter. Lots of techcnical wrestling by angle and he wins with a german suplex. WInner Kurt ANgle. match Rating 7/10.

3. Ivory (Champion) V. Miss Kitty V. Jacqueline V. BB Evening Gown In A Pool Match for the WWF Women's Championship- This was not a good match. This had no wrestling involved. The only thing that was good was how hot the women lookjed and at the end miss kity took her top off. WInner and new wwe womens champ miss kity. Match Rating 5.5/10.

4. Hardcore Holly and crash vs. Visicera and Rikishi- this was a filler> It was not a horriable match to put in there but it certainly was not the best one either. It was hard to watch rikishi movesz bery slow in the ring. A solid wrestling match but nothing great. WInners HArdcore holly and crash. MAtch Rating 6/10.

5. British Bulldog (Champion) V. Val Venis V. D'Lo Brown Triple Threat Match for the WWF European Championship- This was a really good triple threat match. this was when the british bulldogs carrer was winding down but he still did an awsome job in this match. Lots of back and forth action hear. Reallly good soild wrestling hear and i think that the british bulldog cariied this macth. WInner and new wwe europen champ the british bulldog. MAtch Rating 8/10.

6. Kane V. X-Pac in a steel cage- This could have been alot better if they gave this more time. This was not a bad match by any means but it could have been better. Your average cage match with a chair used in it and there was no blood in this one which was unusal. Good match. WInner Kane. Match Rating 7.5/10.

7. Chyna (Champion) V. Chris Jericho for WWF Intercontinental Championship - this was a average match and the one thing that made me mad about this was chyna was in it. DOnt get me wrong sdhe was always strong in the womens division but she was not real sdtorng in the mens. THe one person that carried this match was jerico. Soild wrestling match nothing special. WInner and new wwe itc champ Y2J. MAtch Rating 7/10.

8. New Age Outlaws (Champion) V. Rock & Mankind for the wwe tag team titles- This wasd a good tag team match. EVerything flowed in this match from the funny parts by mankind to the soild wrestling by the rock they were an awsome team. Then the bad par comes when the dq happens that is what made this match suck. WInner by dq rock and mankind. MAtch Rating 6.5/10.

9. Big Show (Champion) V. Big Bossman for the wwe title- This was ine of the worst wwe title matches ver. I mean it sucked. WIthe the great storyline behind this and outting bossman over huge well it did not work to well seeing that the match was a 3 minute squash by big show. ANd the only possative ting i can say about the match was it saw albert chockslammed through a table. WInner and still wwe champ the big show. Match RAting 2/10.

10. Triple H def. Vince McMahon in a No Holds Barred match- This was a very brutal match. This i would usually say that if u had a non usual wrestler in hte mani event the match would suck this one did not. This had alot of items and tons of blood tables cahirs trash cans everting this was an awsome mani event. WInner HHH> Match Rating 8.5/10.

Well that raps up another. I would give armageddon 1999 a grade of 65.5/100 which is a 66% whcih means this is a good ppv. I would say that is right and if u can find this for the right price i would buy it. If u can tell me if my review was helpful or not i would apreciate that. Thanks for your time.

This was a great pay per view. The tag match between the New Age Outlaws and The Rock and Sock Connection was excellent. Triple H vs. Vince McMahon had it's good parts and it's not so good parts. The best part was when Stephanie turns her back on her father to stay with her "husband," Triple H. If you like this video, watch Royal Rumble 2000 & No Way Out 2000 when Cactus Jack battles Triple H in one of (if not)the best Hell In A Cell matches ever! Buy Armageddon 1999. You won't be disappointed one single bit.

armageddon was the last ppv of 1999 and they ended 1999 with this awesome ppv. this was one of the best ppvs of 1999 because it marks the birth of the mcmahon helmsley era!
