Everybody says that this pay per view stunk. The reason for this is that the Austin Comeback match didn't live up to it's Hype. well, Duh. Nobody could live up to the hype of Stone Cold coming back after almost a year on the shelf. The Dudley'd Table Invational was a great match with lots of action. X-Pac and Y2J in a cage. One of the best cage matches(HHH vs. Mankind/Dude Love SS 1997 being the best)The Hardy's and "Los Conquistadors" had a good match, not as good as the Hardy's and Edge and Chistian, but good non-the-less. Triple H and Chris Benoit put on one of the BEST technical wrestling matches ever. Bret Hart would be proud. The Austin-Rikishi match was still a pretty good match if you look at it. And, once you get this(you better get this) you will hold a piece of History, As It was the first time that "Angle the Great" became the WWF World Champion. Thid video has a bit of everything rolled up in around 3 hours. You have hardcore with tables, high flying with Hardyz-Los Conquistadors, you got the greatest techical action in a long, long time. And to top it off, you have Kurt Angle putting on a great show, pinning the Rock 1-2-3 in the middle of the ring after the Olympic Slam. Here's how I would rate each match match(out of 10)

Table Invitational-- 8.0

X-Pac Vs.Y2J Steel Cage---8.5

Val Venis and Steven Richards Vs. Mr. Ass and Chyna---7.0

Austin Vs. Rikishi No Holds Barred----8.0

William(Don't call me Steven) Regal vs. Naked Mideon---6.0 (9.5 on humor factor)

Los Conquisadors Vs. Hardyz-----8.5

HHH vs Benoit-----10.0

Kurt Angle vs. The Rock----9.0

Overall PPV AVERAGE------8.125

Overall PPV------8.5

2000 NO Mercy

October 22, 2000

Pepsi Arena

Albany, New York

Dudley Boyz Tag Team Table Elimination Invitational:

Dudley Boyz V. Right To Censor V. Tazz & Raven V. Too Cool V. Lo Down

Good opener. Could have been alot better. Yeah, like the Dudleyz are going to lose their own Invitational? **3/4

Acolytes & Lita V. Tes, Alber, & Trish

This match never happened. Lita just got the hell beat out of her.

Steel Cage Match:

Chris Jericho V. X-Pac

This was the 3rd Cage Match in 4 months. Can you say, "overusing of a match." Again, like their Unforgiven match, this one could have stole the show, and again, it didn't. This match was ok until the end. Jericho wins. ***1/4

Billy Gunn & Chyna V. Steven Richards & Val Venis

This match sucked. Right To Censor (Steven & Val) win. **

No Holds Barred Match:

Stone Cold Steve Austin V. Rikishi

This match never ended. The whole match Austin kicks Rikishi's ass and then the cops show up "just in time" to safe Rikishi from being ran-over by Austin.

WWF European Championship:

William Regal (Champion) V. Naked Mideon

um...Regal wins and why did Mideon even agree to this gimmack? **

WWF Tag Team Championship:

Hardy Boyz (Champions) V. Los Conquistadores

I wonder who the Conquistadores are. Anyways, this match was great and very action paced. The Conquistadores (Edge & Christian) win the Tag Titles. ****

Triple H V. Chris Benoit

Remember last year when Triple H has never defeated Chris Benoit?...They must have forgotten about this match. This match was great, but the Iron Match Match was their best match that they had together. Yes...Triple H does win. ****

WWF Championship:

The Rock (Champion) V. Kurt Angle

Awesome match. This match had a great story to it and Angle finally wins the WWF Championship! ****1/2

Overall, a pretty good show. The Austin/Rikishi match could have had an ending but didn't. Angle title win was awesome but he should have held it atleast until WrestleMania.

this wasn't one of wwf's best ppv's, but it had some good matches. the best of all had to be triple h vs chris benoit. great technical match as they went back and forth. could have done without billy gunn/chyna vs rtc. i was one of those pumped up for the return of stone cold, but all his match was him beating the crap out of rikishi. could have had a better ending. my favorite part of the night was the rock losing the title to kurt angle. never have liked the rock, i may never will. so i was glad to see angle cap a amazing first year in the wwf by winning the world title.

No Mercy 2000 takes place in Albany, New York. This PPV Mostly circles around Rikishi running over Austin.
Now if you read my Summerslam 98' review, you know I went into to much detail so I will just give you what you want to hear on a scale from 0 to 10 with ten being the highest.
1. Dudley Boyz Tag Team Elimination Table Invitational Match Too Cool (Scotty 2 Hotty and Grandmaster Sexay) vs. LoDown (D-Lo and Chaz) vs. Taz and Raven vs. The Dudley Boyz (Bubba and D-Von) vs. Right to Censors Goodfather and Bull Buchanan.
(this is the exact order as they come out) The first match lasted for a few minutes with Too Cool beating LoDown by Scotty pushing Chaz into a table from the top rope. Then Taz and Raven suplexed Scotty through a table beating Too Cool. Then the Dudleyz came out and D-Von leg dropped Taz through a table. Then the Right To Censor people came out and Bubba originally powerbomed Bull through the table but the ref was down. Then the Goodfather came and nailed Bubba with a chair and dragged Bubba into the table and rolled Bull out. The ref said RTC won but then another ref came and then they restarted the match and the Dudleys 3-D the Goodfather.
Winner The Dudleyz Rating: 7/10
Pretty good Table match, but somewhat predictable.
2. 6-Man Inter-gender Tag Team Match T&A and Trish against The Acolytes and Lita.
This match never happened. Lita came out with her hair in a ponytail (which up to this point she has never done) and after a minute they showed T and A beating up the Acolytes. T and A came out and were about to destroy Lita but then Matt and Jeff saved her.
Winner: ??? Rating: 0/10
This would have been good but never happened.
After a stupid joke about nuts from Edge and Christian the next match started.
3. X-Pac vs. Chris Jericho in a Cage Match
This match some high points but never really had any high points (literally) until X-Pac and Jericho were both on the top. Y2J did a Walls of Jericho on the top then X-Pac kicked Y2J off the top onto the ring. Then X-Pac jumped on the door and thought he had won but Y2J kicked the door and X-Pac hit his jewels and Jericho won.
Winner Chris Jericho Rating: 8/10
The match is really 6/10 but X-Pac hit his nuts 3 times and still almost won!!
4. RTC members Val Venis and Steven Richards against Mr. A$$ and Chyna
This match was short and ended with a low blow by Chyna and a Fame-A$$er by Mr. A$$ but before either one could pin Eddie Gurrero came out and hit Chyna with a lead pipe, so RTC won =(
Winner: RTC Pinfall Rating: 5/10
Good Match, bad ending.
5. Stone Cold vs. Rikishi
This match was cruel. Rikishi barely got any shots at Austin as Austin slammed Rikishi into cement, with a chair, and almost through a table before Austin through him into the back of his truck and drove him to the parking lot entrance. Then he kicked Rikishi into stone barriers and attempted to pretty much kill Rikishi by ramming into him at 70 miles per hour. But right before he could hit him a police officer was making his rounds and ended up getting slammed by Austin's truck instead of Rikishi. Then some more officers came and actually arrested him for attempted murder and vehicular assault!!! The officer was almost dead and Rikishi was beat up.
Rating: 9/10
Way intense!!!!!!!!!!!!
The next 2 matches between HHH and Benoit and Rock against Angle were your typical main event never give up matches but both had Stephinie interferring.
Ratings: HHH vs Benoit 8/10 Rock vs. Angle 9/10
Another match is for the Tag Team Championchip
Hardy Boyz vs. Los Quiestadors
You don't need to be a rocket scientist to know this is really Edge and Christian vs. the Hardyz. Pretty good tag team match. Surprise ending with Los Quiestadors winning the titles.
Winner and new Tag Team Champions Edge and Christian (I mean, Los Quiestadors) Rating 6/10
Pretty Good Match!
Total Rating 7/10 Pretty good PPV

No mercy was another in a long line of great ppv's the wwf has released this year. The Dudlye's Table Inventational was a great quick paced opener. Next was a spectacular Cage match between X-Pac and Chris Jericho. Best cage match in a long time.Billy Gunn & Chyna v. Steven Richards & Val Venis was ok, but it was great to see Billy back in his first match since being injured at No Way Out. Next was No Holds Barred between Rikishi and Stone Cold Steve Austin. This was a quick match which was brutal but has a terrible finish. William Regal vs. Mideon was of heat quality and the worst match of the night.The Hardy Boys vs. Los Conquistadors (Edge & Christian) was not one of there best matches together (Look to No Mercy 99 for that one), but still had some great high spots by the suicidal Hardy's. Triple H vs. Chris Benoit was an wonderful match. Triple H just gets better every match he is in and is the hardest worker in the wwf. Benoit is the best wrestler in the world today so naturally his match really stole the show, just spectacular work by both parties. The Rock v. Kurt Angle was also great, and was one of the best matches The Rock has been in this year. Overall a great ppv, only a shame it's being underrated by alot of people because of the Ausitn v Rikishi match. I great addation to any wwf fans collection.

It was great.The Best matches on NM2K were the Steve Austin-Rikishi streetfight,the HHH-Chris Beniot and The Rock-Kurt Angle match for the WWF/E Championship.The Worst Matches were The 6 person tag team match which didn't happened and the William Regal-Naked Mideon match.The Dudley Boyz invitational Tables match kind of remind me of the table matches of the old ECW days which made it a good and soild match.the rest are o.k.I give this event a 8 out of 10.

1st match table tag team match winners the dudlay boys. 2nd match apa and lita vs t/a and trish stratus winners no contest. 3rd match chris jerico vs x-pac winner chris jerico. 4th match steve austin vs rikishi winners no contest 5th match wiliam regal vs naked mideon and when i say naked mideon i mean naked winner wiliam regal. 6th match edge and christian vs hardy boyz winners edge and christian. 7th match chris benoit vs triple h winner triple h 8th match kurt angle vs the rock winner kurt angle. this pay per view was great.

This was a pretty damn good PPV.
The match that stole the show for me was the
AUSTIN/RIKISHI match. I really liked how they moved rikishi from were he was and now how he is. They did a good job pushing him to were he should be. The match could have bin better but over all it was great

The other matches I didn't really care for except for the Rock/Angle match which was awesome too.

I normaly review every match but for this I won't.

I thought this and Unforgivin were two great ppvs for 2001...I think that was the year I saw them....

Over all this was an average/good ppv...

I'm not just sayin this because I was at the event (and you can see me jumping up and down crying like a little girl when the man Angle won the title, only reason i traveled from Syracuse is to see Angle.) but it had everything from a table match, to comedy with the Y2J cage match, Edge and Christian dressing up to win the titles, to a match of the year canidate between HHH and Benoit. Of course it has its share of bad matches (Mideon/Regal) but what PPV doesnt? Plus the excitement and energy of Austin returning to whoop Rikishi. Without a doubt 9/10
