Pretty Good Actually, January 27, 2005
This review is from: WWF: Rebellion 2001 (DVD)
Steel Cage Match for the Intercontinental Championship
Edge vs. Christian
Best match in their feud. I like the old school style cage. It looks great. The match overall is very good.
Scotty 2 Hotty vs. The Hurricane
Not so hot on paper but it turns out to be a well paced and enjoyable match.
Big Show vs. DDP
DDP's promo was the best part. Really just a comedic squash.
Elimination Match for the WCW Tag Team Titles
Dudley Boyz vs. APA vs. Hardy Boyz
At this point these matches were a dime a dozen. Nothing special.
Tajiri vs. William Regal
Better than their Survivor Series match. They meshed well together in this one.
WCW Championship
Chris Jericho vs. Kurt Angle
Great match. Predictable outcome but it's great to see Y2J in a title match.
Lita & Torrie Wilson vs. Stacy Kiebler & Molly Holly w/ Trish Stratus as special ref
Usual diva junk match.
WWF Championship
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. The Rock
They did it again! Fantastic match. Not too many people know about this one.

Very Good, April 22, 2002
Here is my analysis of the matches for Rebellion:
Intercontinental Steel Cage Match: Edge Vs Christian A Good
paced match that saw both men execute many diiferent manuevers
and a unique ending with Edge catching his brothers legs in the
cage and tying his feet together *****
Scotty Too Hotty Vs Hurricane Helms A Solid effort by both men
and it was given enough time ****
Diamond Dallas Page Vs Big Show A Total Squash match and time
killer rolled into one. At least it was kept quick **
WCW Tag Team Championship 3 Team Elimination match: A solid
effort by all 6 men and very good. ****
Yoshihira Tajiri Vs William Regal YT pulled off all his
signature moves and sold all of regal's punches. ***
WCW Championship: Kurt Angle Vs Chris Jericho (C) A Good solid
bout by both men who tried to use both of their finishing
Manuevers. ****
Divas Tag Team match: Might Molly and Stacy Keibler Vs Torrie
Wilson and Lita Passable but nothing special. Why aren't these
women doing Piledrivers and Powerbombs? **
WWF Championship Match: Rock Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin (C)
A awesome display by bot men but the run-in by Angle really didn't help at all. ****

The Invasion Got Taken To The UK!, February 24, 2009
This review is from: WWF: Rebellion 2001 (DVD)
Just in case if you do not know, Rebellion along with Insurrextion are WWF's PPV events for England. This is another good PPV from the Ivasion period. It carried over some storylines and feuds from No Mercy to the Survivor Series event. The two World Title matches are very good and the under-card isn't so bad either.
Steel Cage Match for the IC Title
Edge (C) vs. Christian
This feud played off pretty well. But this match certainly didn't live up to their Ladder Match from No Mercy. Some good spots with the cage. No blood in this one but still good. And the ending is something we haven't seen yet since. 4/5
Scotty 2 Hotty vs. Hurricane Helms
I was really impressed with this match. It started out slow but picked up as the match progressed. Some very good counters and reversals towards the end and this match played out to be pretty decent. 3/5
Big Show vs. DDP
A very short match. DDP's run after the Invasion and Summerslam PPVs went really bad in my opinion. And this match was really weak. These two had better in their old WCW days. 2/5
Elimination Tag Team Match for the WCW Tag Team Titles
Hardy Boyz vs. Dudley Boyz (C) vs. APA
The PPV picks up again here. After the APA got eliminated, the Hardys and Dudleys put on a very good tag match. A table gets introduced but doesn't get used. Still a pretty good tag team match up. 3.5/5
William Regal vs. Tajiri
A very good mat based and ground based match up. Regal looked to be in very good shape here. A very good match. 4/5
WCW Heavyweight Title
Chris Jericho (C) vs. Kurt Angle
This match came about after Angle defected just a week earlier. This match went very good with both men suplexing and slamming each other. To include a little nice brawl on the outside. Angle is very good as a heel and him and Jericho meshed in very well with each other. Just a solid wrestling match. 5/5
Divas Tag Team Match with Trish Stratus as the Special Referee
Lita and Torrie Wilson vs. Stacy Keibler and Mighty Molly
I found this match not good at all. Even with Trish as the special ref. This match just didn't do it for me. 1.5/5
WWF Title
The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin (C)
Great match but doesn't quite equal to their classic from Wrestlemania earlier in the year. This match got taken almost everywhere. It would even get a little brutal. This was a good back and forth confrontation from these two great rivals. A very good match showing for the WWF Title. 5/5
The Extra's arent so bad either. They hold two very good matches and also Kurt Angle defecting to the Alliance.
WCW Heavyweight Title From RAW 11.5.01
The Rock vs. Chris Jericho (C)
Another good match showing from these two for the WCW Title. Not as good as from their No Mercy encounter but still very good nevertheless. This match seemed very personal. It has a good table spot and some blood too. And the after match assault to The Rock added more as well. 4.5/5
Smackdown 11.8.01
Undertaker vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin and Kurt Angle
Another good match right here. Austin and Angle had just previously took out Kane the past RAW. And Taker was here for revenge and he gave Austin and Angle a run for their money. Good match and watch out for Austin stunning Angle. 3.5/5
I recommend purchasing Rebellion '01. The two World Title matches are great and the extra's make up for the decent mid-card.
