Movie Reviews of WWF: Survivor Series 2000
Movie Review: Austin V Triple H with No DQ!
Summary: 4 Stars
Survivor Series 2000T&A and Trish Stratus V Crash, Molly Holly and Steve Blackman
A pretty good opener and it got the crowd pumped. Molly pins Trish to win the match for her team. 6/10
Road Dogg, K-Kwik, Chyna and Billy Gunn V The Radicalz
This was a traditional survivor series match, and it was pretty long. At one point Billy was alone against 3 Radicalz. Overall a decent match but nothing amazing. 6/10
Chris Jericho V Kane
A good match with a good build-up behind it. Kane wins with a chokeslam, but later in the night Jericho attacks Kane backstage, which leads to their last man standing match the next month at Armageddon 2000. 7/10
European Title
William Regal V Hardcore Holly
The worst match of the night, and it was only booked on Heat earlier that night. Not truly awful, but not good at all either. 4/10
Rikishi V The Rock
A quite good match, but it could have been better. Rikishi dominates a lot of the match. After Rock wins with a people's elbow Rikishi gives Rock 4 banzai drops. 7/10
Women's Title
Ivory V Lita
Ivory cheats to win the match win help from Steven Richards. Lita gets busted open near her eye, but she finishes the match. It was good for a women's match and it wasn't too long. 5/10
WWE Title
Kurt Angle V Undertaker
A good match, with Undertaker almost winning about 3 times. Kurt taps out to an arm lock when the ref isn't looking, and also Edge and Christian interfere distracting the ref and so stopping Taker from getting a 3 count. At the end Kurt goes under the ring, but Taker pulls him out and last-rides him for a 3, however the ref realises it's not Kurt, but his brother Eric. Kurt comes from the other side and rolls up Taker for the win. 8/10
Edge & Christian and Bull Buchanan & Goodfather V Hardy Boys and Dudley Boys
A fantastic survivor series match with the Hardys and Dudleys working great as a team. Some great moves, and in the end only Jeff is left but he wins the match. Afterwards RTC attack him but Matt and the Dudleys come back out and it all results in Val and Richards both going through tables. 8/10
No Disqualification Match
Stone Cold Steve Austin V Triple H
Best match of the night, with Triple H being busted open by a monitor and put through the announce table. Then they fight backstage where the Radicalz attack Austin and Triple H goes away to the parking area and get in a car. Austin gets away and chases Benoit into the parking area, which is a set up so HHH can run over Austin again. Benoit goes off to look for Austin as HHH waits in the car, but then Austin uses a forklift to pick up the car with HHH still in it and then drops it from a great height. A rather dramatic ending, which was a bit too unbelievable, but overall a great match. However, if you want Austin and HHH's best match check out their 3 Stages of Hell match at No Way Out 2001. 9/10
Overall a very solid PPV. The main event is great and there are some other cool matches too.
Movie Review: Survivor Series 2000
Summary: 4 Stars
Test, Albert, and Trish VS Crash Holly, Steve Blackman, and Molly Holly: A good opener, even if I dont care for women wrestling.
Radicalz VS K-Kwik, Road Dogg, Chyna, and X-Pac: I was excited to see this match and it didnt disappoint. I never cared for Chyna but it was still a good match.
Chris Jericho VS Kane: There Last Man Standing match was way better then this match. It was decent but hardly a classic, Jericho is always entertaining and Kane was much better with a mask.
WWE European Champion William Regal VS Hardcore Holly: I really didnt care for this match and the ending really sucked.
The Rock VS Rikishi: A good story going into this match and neither man disappointed. Not a classic but still very enjoyable.
Ivory VS Lita: Skip
Kurt Angle VS Undertaker: Taker almost won the title but Kurt's brother shows up and interferes. Angle rolls him up 'Taker to retain the title in a good match.
Hardys and Dudleys VS Edge, Christian, Goodfather, and Bull Buchanan: A very enjoyable elimination match.
Stone Cold returns to face Triple H in a NO DQ match: Nothing more then Austin beating the hell of Triple H. The ending was stupid with Triple H escapes in a car and Austin uses a forklift to lift it in the air and drops it. Like he wouldn't survive but this is wrestling and your suppose to suspend your beliefs.
Overall, a very good Survivor Series even though most of the endings sucked.
Movie Review: The Rules Have Changed
Summary: 4 Stars
Yes, needles to say, this Survivor Series went above and beyond the average norm, and this DVD "rocks!"The main event pitted "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, one of the largest personas ever to enter the "squared circle" against Triple H, arguably the best in the business at the moment. These two athletes thrive off of each other, and the main event on this card shows that. The ending of the match is unbelievable, and is truly worth the entire price of this amazing DVD.
In other highlights, the Rock vs. Rikishi match was excellent, as Mr. Stinky Face himself had his coming out party in a "large" way. Rikishi showed that he could raise the level of his performance.
Kurt Angle vs. the Undertaker was another outstanding match. These two superstars layed it all on the line in a fierce battle, and the ending was somewhat surprising.
Haven't heard enough to buy this yet? Check out Kane vs. Chris Jericho. Two wrestlers that have completely different styles match up in an excellent bout.
Overall, this is an excellent DVD. The post-card wrap-up is a really nice addition. Besides that, this card has the first Stone Cold vs. HHH match, which is sure to be a classic rivalry in the future. Seeing as how Survivor Series is one of the original four Pay-Per-Views, owning this DVD is a must for all wrestling fans.
Movie Review: The Rules Have Changed!!
Summary: 4 Stars
This event has some high spots and some low spots. I personally like the opening promo with triple h the best myself. hHh's 40 ft drop inside of a car (courtesy of Stone Cold) was amazing. Stone Cold finally got his revenge from one year earlier. I think that storyline could'hve been better if the WWF would have just come out and said it was Triple h and instead of using Rikishi as the culprit. I mean Rikishi wasn't even ready to be a top performer in the WWF. Anyways were talkin about the DVD here. The Rock vs. Rikishi (which is mid card and also proves that Rikishi can't be a main eventer) is cool. So is the WWF Title Match between Undertaker and Kurt Angle. That match has a great Survivor Series traditional ending. Someof the Xtras on the disk are----what happened leading up to certain matches
---backstage interviews
---highlights from Heat
---Wrap Up show (which can also be found on VHS)
A pretty good DVD but to tell you the truth, I'd tell you to just rent it first before you buy it.
Movie Review: Great Way To End The Year For The Classic Five Pay Per Views
Summary: 4 Stars
This PPV was very entertaining. The WWF title match was good until a huge screwjob is pulled off and leaves you angry and ticked off at Angle. The Rock match is ok, but some of the actual Survivor Series matches are entertaining as well. But, the main event is awesome. Triple H up against Stone Cold Steve Austin, this match is very good. Austin, although being out of the ring for a year, gives a knock out performance with some funny moments as well.(When HHH is down, Austin sits down on the stairs and drinks a beer. The ref looks at him and Austin yells:"What do you want?! Im thirsty!" Then, the end of the match is probably one of the greatest acts of He(( Raising ever accomplished by the Rattlesnake. What is it? Buy it and find out!
