HHH v Chris Jericho - WWF RAW 04/17/00 The match is more of a vehicle to drive the angle where it wants to go than anything, but I guess it is still a match. Nice start with Jericho catching HHH off the ropes with a forearm and taking it to him quite aggressively. In fact, the offense and false finishes are the strongest part of this match -- Jericho's armdrag off the top rope is a thing of beauty and HHH countering a vertical suplex into a stun gun variation on the ropes is pretty cool as well. They do a nice job structuring the match within the eight minutes or so they have to work with, and they manage to do the match in four parts in that short period of time -- J…

Chris Benoit v The Rock (Cage Match) - WWF RAW 03/12/00 In a nice touch early on, Benoit sends the Radz backstage so he can fight the battle on his own. Sadly, that theme really isn't continued when HHH, Big Show and the McMahon children poke their rather large noses in things, but the idea was nice at first. Benoit's aggression rocks here, as he refuses to let up on Rock and takes it to him straight on in a slugfest at the beginning of the match. His running elbow looks great, and despite being an excellent all-around wrestler, he's right at home in this brawling atmosphere. Rock also seems more interested in letting him dictate in this match than HHH was in the prev…

HHH v Chris Benoit - WWF Smackdown 02/03/00 Immediately, I have to ask why this match is even happening. The WWF managed to lure away WCW World Champion Chris Benoit, without him having ever lost the belt, and not only is it the very first match Benoit has on TV, but it's put on a throwaway Smackdown? With HHH going over in relatively clean fashion? I know the initial plan was for this to end in controversial fashion until Eddy Guerrero was injured earlier in the evening, but putting Benoit over here would have set up a Benoit/HHH feud whenever they wanted to do it, without compromising the HHH/Rock and HHH/Foley feuds at all. There's also the issue of HHH arguing imm…

HHH v Taka Michinoku - WWF RAW 04/10/00 This match is crap, but it's such entertaining crap that I'm tempted to give it a free pass. Perhaps crap is an overstatement, because Taka gets in some great offense and HHH bumps well for him, but it's the maximum booking overdrive that makes this memorable. They pull out all the stops to make this every bit as exciting as a normal RAW main event would be, and actually convince the crowd at one point that Taka may leave with the title, which is no small feat considering each man's place in the pecking order. Everyone from the McMahons, to Earl Hebner, to Funaki, to the APA, to Buchanan & Boss Man, plays a part in this one,…
