Message-ID: 

This was a classic WCW PPV.

Good to great work in the undercard, and main events that went from
average to ugly.


Cena/Lesner will be very good to great in a year or 2 after they are
seasoned, but at this point, they each need a more experienced guy to
carry them a little bit.  No real complaints, because I was expecting
this.

The six-man was decent with one exception (Nash), but EVERYONE in the
match seemed a bit off on their timing.  As much as 5 of the 6 have
worked with/against against each other, this lacked a smoothness that
is typical of WWE main events.  Nash needs to be sent to OVW.
Immediately.  Between his sloooooow limp to the ring to his stiffness
and slowness in the ring, he singlehandedly ruined the match.  I
thought Kronik was bad in WWE untiil I saw this match.  Mad props to
Nash for coming back fom his injury, but at this point he is about 4
steps below where Scott Steiner was when Steiner debuted.

Rock/Goldberg was ugly.  Between Goldberg's new music to the crowd
complely turning on Goldberg, this was the opposite of what WWE
wanted.  Goldberg was exposed as a 3-4 move wrestler, and can't even
perform a 2 3/4 kickout without making the ref look bad for not
counting 3.  Coming out, Rock looked like a wuss, and Goldberg made
Nathan Jones look polished in the ring.  Even Goldberg's selling the
shoulder  (which was very good) looks like it might have been a shoot
from the looks of the swelling and discoloration that was visible
there throughout the match.

And creative had nothing for Benoit this PPV...  *rolls eyes*
