Razor Ramon (Scott Hall) and Diesel (Kevin Nash) were on their way out the door to WCW, and this was their send off from their buddies in The Kliq, Shawn Michaels and Triple H. Two were heels, two were babyfaces, yet here they were. breaking kayfabe, in the middle of Vince McMahon's WWE ring, on hallowed ground. What was the feeling of upper management and the other wrestlers before, during, and after this took place? What should the consequences have been, and more! Plus, discussion about stars like Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Sean Waltman, and The Ultimate Warrior at this time, as well as talk about the looming WCW threat! Rate/subscribe in Apple Podcasts!

Judgement Day 2000 too. Hell of a finish. Bittersweet finish with Triple H beating Rock in return from Backlash and Undertaker retuning debuting as the American Badass. The spectacular thing about Backlash and Judgement Day 2000 was SCSA and Undertaker returning to kick HHH and the McMahon Helmsley regime asses while assisting The Rock. And HBK being the Special Guest Ref in Judgement Day was an additional bonus. 🍻💯

Generally love JR but his corporate shilling is downright stomach churning. To shrug off criticisms against the WWE about the number of wrestlers dying young or facing lifelong health/drug issues as either a conspiracy or just bitter talent that couldn't make it, is gross. All you have to do is look at how hard the owners fight unionization to understand there is far more at play.

I enjoyed the breakdown of the ppv, I could do without the "stay home and stay safe, were all in this together" bullshit though. Not my fav grilling with JR, but the breakdown was good, skip the first hour is my tip.

I love how fans and these guys say this Wrestlemania was awful but when you watch it you see those same die hard fans screaming in ecstasy over every match chanting that stupid chant of "This is awesome!" Yet somehow the fans weren't invested??? And why the hell would Jericho go over at Wrestlemania over the Rock? That makes absolute no sense. Jericho was over at this time but not at Rock's level who was the top babyface in the company.

I actually just rewatched WM 16 a few days ago, and I thought the opening match was pretty good. Bull Buchanan did some really athletic moves for a big guy. Did they really say Meltzer gave it a quarter star rating? That's absurd. It should easily get 2 stars at least. The hardcore battle royal and T&A vs Head Cheese were the worst matches. Obviously Kat vs Terri was the worst match technically, but it was never intended to be a classic confrontation. I disagree with Ross saying the hardcore title meant nothing back then. I was a fan back then, and everyone I knew loved Crash Holly and the whole 24/7 thing.

This is probably the worst Wrestlemania I watched during my time as a wrestling fan. Nothing was good about this show. I hated the main event. Mick Foley comes back from retirement after 4 weeks just so he can get eliminated second by Triple H (which is the third month in a row Haitch beat him). Then Triple H retains after Vince hits the Rock with the lamest chair shots ever. The Jericho-Benoit-Angle triple threat and the Triangle ladder match are the only things good about this WM.

really would like to hear more of what led to the decision to put HHH over in the main event, whether that was originally the plan or was a result of the usual HHH politicking (forgot how they had the 'main event' three way match between he, Rock and Show a couple weeks before on RAW and of course HHH won that too). Whether they ever seriously considered having Foley go over and retire as champ since the crowd was REALLY behind him in the match (I remember how pissed off the crowd got when Foley ate yet another Pedigree and pin from HHH, same result as the last two PPVs) or if it was ever considered to be just a Rock-HHH main event (which would have been better)

It's great to know you were apart of this era. Remembering how hot the company was at this time. To me 2000 was it for the Attitude era. It never got any bigger than it was at this point. The Rock was the hottest. His story with Triple H was hot. Austin was hot. But is was the Rock's time. I didn't care for the main event. It could have been done better. It was overbooked. Big names but it was too much. It took away from the talent. Too much going on at once on the main event. Bigger wasn't better. It should have been Triple H, Rock, and Mick. I don't think you had to put Show in there. Idk.. He wasn't the worker those guys were.

Considering at this time, the company was without Austin, without Undertaker, it made sense to not focus this WrestleMania on any one or two superstars. Instead, lets put the focus on the rest of the team as a whole. Lets get everybody involved, prove to detractors we're not a one-man or a two-man show. And like J.R. said, was it a great show as a whole from a spectators view, not really, but from a financial standpoint, it was a HELL of a show.

This was the first wrestling show I ever went to at 17 years old. Me and my friend went to the fan signing events that weekend and snuck in a bed sheet with FOLEY spray painted on that we hung off the railing. Then the show ended and we left so disappointed. There's was no Foley getting his revenge and no big moment for the Rock. Just the same screwy HHH finish we'd been seeing for months. The tables match is my only positive memory of the show, everything else was forgettable or awful.

Too much was going on at once. Show shouldn't have been in the main event. The three hottest guys were enough. The ending sucked. It was to build Triple H. He's still on top today. I could go on and on. Guys like Punk, Bryan, Matt Hardy, Ziggler, Edge, Sting Orton, The Fiend etc. All of those guys they have blown it creatively with. Because the last several years they have just pushed and pushed and pushed Reigns. Lesnar is a different story. He sells tickets. Seth Rollins they did right. He's a great heel. The Fiend they have screwed up his story. A lot of stupid shit they keep adding on. The Orton angle they blew.

I hated this Wrestlemania with a burning passion. I walked away from WWF/E immediately after. I never bought another pay-per-view and didn't bother with the television. The booking was abysmal and the conclusion, which saw Triple H shit on everybody on the roster, set the stage for the next decade of WWE: the Triple H show. To the detriment of the whole product and it's fans, Triple H would crown himself king of the hill and deny the fans a just conclusion. Even at thirteen years old, I could smell the vanity this guy emanated. He thought he was the greatest and he was determined to shove that greatness down our throats by going over and over and over. How many other people like me said "fu*k this show, fu*k this guy...I'm outta here!"?

K B crazy because I’ve been saying that for the longest. He must have not pushed for it. He didn’t need it, but he still should have got His moment, he beats hogan and Austin when they’re out of their prime. Trips wins as a heel and a face like Austin. Travesty

And the very next year, they put on the single greatest wrestlemania they ever put on as a company. So yeah, that was stupid of you. You missed out big time. That's fucking hilarious. See that's why the IWC is shit. Because simpleminded people like you that say "fuck it, i'm never watching anymore" the minute your entitlement isn't catered to and then you miss out on the best shit ever that you would have LOVED, had you not been a tantrum throwing, overreacting 5 year old about a single lackluster PPV. Also you sounded like a dumbass mark kid, anyway. Seriously, you stopped watching because Triple H became a heel? Fucking hell, kid, that's worse than all the dumbshits recently who quit because Cena won a match or because Roman Reigns won a match or some other mark-ass little bitch reason. You get played ONCE and all of a sudden your patience runs out for the business entirely? Man, fuck off.... people like you shouldn't have been watching to begin with.

I have to disagree with JR. Someone like Chyna, with eddie and guys was fine. Shes huge!. Now if a trish or tiny girl like becky lynch... yea its dumb. if you think this person can kick ass just by looking at them, i say book them as such. Not everryone looked at chyna and said oh I could take her.

This mania seemed bad as it was surrounded by much better ppvs. Mania should be the best but it was one of the weaker shows of the year, which is more due to how great the other shows were not that this was bad. I'd still say it was overall the best mania to that date.
