@jarredandtina90.. I was there too and it was the only WWF experience I had. I was also 10 lol, it seems like it was last year or just a week ago us WWF fans were watching raw or smackdown.
They should have let him win the title that night and then let him drop the title in a triple threat or a fatal four way at Summerslam 2000. Benoit would have been the first man to win the WWF (E) title and WCW title in a calendar year, actually 6 month span.
Chris Benoit is the best ever and his family deserved to die... they were holding benoit back and plus nancy is a giant slut and daniel is a lil retard
I was there, and this PPV was fantastic from start to finish.
BTW, they were wearing the Rock's stuff because earlier in the PPV they had broken into the Rock's trailer and ransacked it. They were making a big deal that night about the Rock being from Dallas, and when he came in there, that place EXPLODED.
Back then the Rock was the original Orton or Cena. At least Benoit was an out an out wrestler as opposed to a gimmicky mic-orientated "superstar". The Rock used to talk some shit every time he opened his mouth. All that jabroni beatin' cream pie eatin' blah blah blah I bet he did eat some cream pies. RIP and God blss Chris and his family Nancy and Daniel. His health suffered for our entertainment whereas the Rock just grew rich. Apart from Bret, Benoit is, was and will forever be the best.
@MZophiel Except that unlike ORTON or CENA the Rock earned his way. Ever heard of THE KLIQ? HBK and HHH almost shot the Rock down before he even got started. Bret even said that, and he also said that while he was WWF Champ in 97 he gave Rock all the advice he could because he KNEW Rock would be the face of the company.
Go screw yourself. The Rock rules, deal with it. BTW I'm a big Benoit fan as well but you are a tool.
Why the hell is shane always wearing the rock's attire, Everytime the rock had a feud with sum1 shane mcmahon would always manage the rock's enemy, he would annoy the hell outta me
Damn, WWF has a lot of talent back then, The Rock, Austin, HHH, Undertaker, Kane, Kurt Angle, Edge, Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, BIg Show, Hardy boyz... Now just one of them came back and WWE will be entertaining again :)
This feud had The Rock getting angry to like maniacal levels. When he went ham on Benoit backstage that night on Raw, I was like "Damn. I guess we know never to really piss off the Great One or he'll run you into a Pepsi machine and Rock Bottom you on a limo."
Why didn't Shane have his own merch? He was like the ultimate merch promoter for other wrestlers. I definitely would've bought a Shane T-shirt. He once wore a Shane O'Mac jersey, but I don't know if they ever sold it.
I was here live in Dallas, I was 10 yrs old. It was an awesome experience for the whole family, being out first WWF event. Great PPVs back then, every match had a storyline, now PPV matches seems thrown together and rushed. They should promote PPVs better
I agree. WWE should wait 2 month in between PPVs. They only give themselves 3 weeks in between each PPVs. That is only 3 RAW shows and 3 SMACKDOWN shows. The feuds should end at PPVs not continue to the next one. The PPV is the big explosion after months of heated cheap shots and smack talk.
And when did they start putting World Heavyweight title shots as the first match of Wrestlemania and other PPVs? The WWE title should always be main event and the champion should always come out last....even if the challenger is more popular...
@jarredandtina90 thats what they cant do anymore :( the superstars today are not standing up to their selfs and do what ever vince wants to do.. they all cowards that why it PG
@sharartiangel i loved the wwf title. it was just cool to look at as a kid and seemed 100x more prestigious than the current golden belt of crap they call the wwe championship. it seems it changes hands like its in a game of hot potato and it just ends up back with cena anyway. couldnt agree more with u.
@BASSER911414 he was a person with a brain debilitating disease from multiple concussions (and not steriods) not a murder but a victim of CTE a side effect of his love for this sport...RIP Chris Benoit
@MaliDaProblem at the end of the day he killed his wife and son and killed himself. he was a depressed man true but the the punishment for murder and suicide is eternal damnation
no one doubts in ring performance or his love for the sport but he did what he did. and murder and suicide because of illness isnt a side effect of the sport. its the side effect of not taking care of yourself.
Man, even after what Benoit did, I STILL love this match! WWE may want to erase it but outside of his bouts with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Kurt Angle, Chris Jericho and The Undertaker, this is one of my favorite Rock matches! Benoit really forced him to "Bring It" in this one!
Man, even after what Benoit did, I STILL love this match! WWE may want to erase it but outside of his bouts with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Kurt Angle, Chris Jericho and The Undertaker, this is one of my favorite Rock matches!
@unoder lol i noticed that about Shane too. he would wear EVERYONE'S tees; face or heel. great way to promote t-shirt sales i suppose. back in The Corporation days he had a jersey for everyone; DX, The Rock, Stone Cold, etc.
The Rock is popular because he was absolutely FANTASTIC on the microphone. Wrestling skills aren't everything. Look at Kaval/Loki. He's a great wrestler but will he ever be a huge star?Probably not, because he sucks on the microphone. Its SCRIPTED ENTERTAINMENT. If you want to rant on about 'wrestling ability' then quit watching WWF/E and watch UFC or amateur wrestling. All of the most popular wrestlers were great on the microphone.
@iTubeYourDadsMinge Thats wht i was saying... i was nt disgracing the rock... I love The Rock bt only coz of his mic skills n the way he makes fun of others nt coz he is a great wrestler... if u compare The Rock vs Chris Benoit frm the wrestling point of view then i thnk u knw who is a better wrestler obviously Benoit.... Benoit is 1000X better wrestler then The Rock... The Rock is only great coz of his mic skills nthing else... in my P.O.V John Cena is 2nd Rock. Both r same...
@pamviewer9 undertaker has talked on the mic :S during the attitude era and his biker and badass gimmick he did alot of mic talking :S in fact undertaker is quite talented when it come to being on the mic
@iTubeYourDadsMinge N son while u r replying to any comment dnt get on fire... n i knw wht happen to Benoit bt it doesn't matter coz i see Benoit as a wrestler 4 wat he have done in the ring... Benoit is the best technical wrestler ever... i respect Benoit 4 wat he did 4 us in the ring... Benoit was is n will be always be missed... R.I.P Benoit...
@SuperUzi007 Wrong, The Rock was a fantastic wrestler. Yes, Benoit was a 1000x better technical wrestler but named me how many wrestler do you know that was "6.5 225+lbs and had the athlecticism and agility of The Rock? Not only that but The Rock arguably was the greatest storyteller on the ring and a superb seller. No one made the crippler crossface more devastating than The Rock. Look at Jericho for example, great on the mic and a great technician but cant tell a story to save his life. cont
@jungle10ful And thats why Jericho cant be trusted on a the main-event spot on a consistent basis. Its one thing to have the mic skills and its a other to be a great technician but if you cant transfer your character in the ring without making your opponent look good? The fans are just going to get bored. The Rock had the ability to put the audience on the edge of their seat on a regular basis. Even Stone Cold who was a great storyteller wasnt quite has good has The Rock. The Rock was a GREAT.
@jungle10ful Jericho can't be trusted in the main event on a consistent basis because he cant tell a story? May I ask why guys like Cena who can't tell a story are consistently on top dominating? They don't tell a story. Popularity. Popularity and the ability to draw money trumps Everything. Everything. Rock drew more then Benoit ever did, just as guys like Cena put asses in seats more then guys they face ever do. Its all about popularity, I respect your opinion, but its wrong. Wrestling biz101.
@jungle10ful to continue, Jericho has been doing it for about 20 years now, all over the world, and has had some of the best matches in the past couple of years in the WWE. He has told countless stories in countless feuds in countless matches over the years, and has the whereabouts and respect for the business, much like The Rock does, to know when to say enough is enough. To say Jericho couldn't tell a story to save his life.. that is just stupid.
@TheCaptainchaffing Haha he wasn't even listed as 6'5 in college playing for the hurricanes. He was listed at 6'4 back then. And he's not even 6'3...
@jungle10ful i agree with you in all you say except the last thing you said. Chris Jericho CAN tell a story in the ring!! Especially when he returned in 2007 until 2010, look at the feuds with michaels, mysterio, edge and the legends, but its okay is your opinion!!
jim ross and the king damn i luv the way how they commentate lol they tell it like it is...jr-"the rock is goin extract 700 dollar asswhuppin on benoit lol
@lsufa Yep....Think it's a crying shame they didn't have more of a feud. WWF really dropped the ball on that one. Because honestly, I don't think it's right that benoit had to wait four years for a WWE world title and Jericho had to wait a year and a half while Big Show got his nine months after entering the company. We all know Benoit and Jericho are far better wrestlers than Big Show (and Jericho is far more entertaining)
@lsufa Agree. Even while Big Show was champ the first time you knew he was just keeping it warm for Triple H to get it back and keep it until he faced the Rock or Austin in a main event.
He's Nasty, Mean, Uncaring, Shameless, Meticulous, Dangerous, Chris Benoit Is a man with "Something" Focus, He has no compassion, He has no feeling's, He's a man on a mission! Benoit is "Something", He vicious, A "Careless?" human being, He Calls himself the greatest technical wrestler In the World Wrestling Federation today! That Is actually a really clever creative names! Great combination for a heel!

This is the Benoit I wish we still had in WWE so atleast he could show these newcomers what really is "WRESTLING" & also I wished Kurt Angle was there too.
no, chances are, he never will...I was as big a Benoit fan as anybody man, its sad that what he did will keep his wrestling legacy from being honored the way it should, but it is what it is.
@dval08 i know.i agree but according to al snow, ted dibiase sr, bret hart, chris jericho, and john cena had said that that he'll never be in the hall of fame because of what he did (on larry king live)
I still remember the night i saw this live on ppv, i was sitting there eating popcorn and enjoying myself, this brings back good memories of when wrestling was still at its best.
Same here. I was a 9 year old watching this, sitting there with some food and watching this PPV. Good times, eh? When wrestling was great and it was common to be a wrestling fan.
I love how HHH just casually strolls by The Rock. Those guys were feuding for a good three months not to long before this match, so of course he's not gonna lift a hand to help him.
yeah stone cold beat him once without help i think in wrestlemania 1999 but as for my informations triple h never beat him without help i watched all their matches, goldberg beat him without help, but the rock wasnt really a much of a wrestler in 2003, to remind u....remember xpac, roaddog, billy gun, vince, shane, stephane...HBK helping HHH everytime he faces the rock
Like it or not, 2000 was a great year for WWE where the midcard was actually prominent to the WWE. Guys like Jericho, Benoit, Guerrero, Rikishi, Venis, Godfather, Test, Too Cool, Edge, Christian, and many more were getting very watchable. Even w/o Austin up until September, they still churned out good Main Event matches, mostly because of HHH, Angle, Rock, Taker and Kane.
@jarredandtina90.. I was there too and it was the only WWF experience I had. I was also 10 lol, it seems like it was last year or just a week ago us WWF fans were watching raw or smackdown.

lsufa 1 year ago
@lsufa Yep....Think it's a crying shame they didn't have more of a feud. WWF really dropped the ball on that one. Because honestly, I don't think it's right that benoit had to wait four years for a WWE world title and Jericho had to wait a year and a half while Big Show got his nine months after entering the company. We all know Benoit and Jericho are far better wrestlers than Big Show (and Jericho is far more entertaining)
BTW R.I.P. Benoit (and Eddie too)

@HuskerFanatic It's really sad. Plus Big Show never did anything memorable while champion.
lsufa 1 year ago
@lsufa Agree. Even while Big Show was champ the first time you knew he was just keeping it warm for Triple H to get it back and keep it until he faced the Rock or Austin in a main event.

Shit... Benoit was ready for the World Title in 2000... why wait 4 years to give it to him in 2004?

He's Nasty, Mean, Uncaring, Shameless, Meticulous, Dangerous, Chris Benoit Is a man with "Something" Focus, He has no compassion, He has no feeling's, He's a man on a mission!

This is the Benoit I wish we still had in WWE so atleast he could show these newcomers what really is "WRESTLING" & also I wished Kurt Angle was there too.

@dval08 i know.i agree but according to al snow, ted dibiase sr, bret hart, chris jericho, and john cena had said that that he'll never be in the hall of fame because of what he did (on larry king live)

Same here. I was a 9 year old watching this, sitting there with some food and watching this PPV. Good times, eh? When wrestling was great and it was common to be a wrestling fan.

I love how HHH just casually strolls by The Rock. Those guys were feuding for a good three months not to long before this match, so of course he's not gonna lift a hand to help him.

yeah stone cold beat him once without help i think in wrestlemania 1999 but as for my informations triple h never beat him without help i watched all their matches, goldberg beat him without help, but the rock wasnt really a much of a wrestler in 2003, to remind u....remember xpac, roaddog, billy gun, vince, shane, stephane...HBK helping HHH everytime he faces the rock

Like it or not, 2000 was a great year for WWE where the midcard was actually prominent to the WWE. Guys like Jericho, Benoit, Guerrero, Rikishi, Venis, Godfather, Test, Too Cool, Edge, Christian, and many more were getting very watchable. Even w/o Austin up until September, they still churned out good Main Event matches, mostly because of HHH, Angle, Rock, Taker and Kane.
