Lita - Lita retained the title by cheap way. Match was surprisingly good. 7/10 3.Hardcore Title Match: Perryy Saturn Vs. Champ-Steve Blackman - On hardcore standard that is really good one. 7.5/10 4. European Title Match: Crash Holly Vs. Champ- William Regal - Regal lost after Molly Holly dropkicked him? Well, that sucked. 6/10 5. Eddie Guerrero/Dean Malenko Vs.

... View More1) T & A vs. Edge and Christian vs. The Dudley Boyz. Three-team elimination tables match. Nothing special, just chaotic. **2) Ivory vs. Lita (women's title). Very short and rather poor match, but I can't rate any Lita match lower than ** (even though she only gets to do about 3 moves here).3) Perry Saturn vs. Steve Blackman (hardcore title). Both men seem capable of wrestling, too bad it's a hardcore match and they don't get to do too much of that. And even if you like this type of match, this one has no blood. **1/24) Crash Holly vs. William Regal (European title). A decent amount of technique on display here, plus a nice missile dropkick by Molly Holly at the end. **1/2 5) Eddie Guerrero and Dean Malenko vs. Chyna and Billy Gunn. A formulaic tag-team match, with one exception: the awesome Chyna, giving and taking a beating like no other woman could. **1/26) Kane vs Chris Jericho. A pretty good big vs. small, power vs. speed match. **1/27) The Hardy Boyz vs. Right To Censor (tag team titles). Wait, aren't there a few too many tag team matches in this PPV? But this one at least has some exciting, fast-paced offense by the Hardyz. **1/2 8) Chris Benoit vs. The Undertaker. The best match of the night. Before it starts, the Radicalz attack the Undertaker and hurt his left leg, and Benoit spends most of the match focusing on that leg, while Taker focuses on Benoit's lower back. The ending is sudden and surprising. ***9) Fatal 4-way for the WWE title. Kurt Angle vs. The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Rikishi. Not much wrestling here, mostly just brawling, but fairly entertaining. It would have been better without so many outside interferences, and without that fat slob Rikishi. **1/2 As you can see, this PPV has 9 matches and none of them are bad, but there are no must-see classics either.
