Rating: 3 stars
Summary: O.K. and dissapointing
Review: The matches are ok but what I really looked for in this event was the return of the NWO. It was a stupid decision to let the NWO come out as soon as the ppv started. They should have did what they did at Bash at the Beach in 96 and let the NWO have their grand entrance at the end.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great ppv
Review: The matches were awesome on this ppv especially stone cold's return.
Eric Bischoff vs. Stone Cold
Test vs. Chris Jericho
Triple H Vs. Scott Steiner
Team Angle vs. Edge Benoit and Brock Lesnar
The Rock vs. Hogan icon vs. icon II

These were some of the matches on this ppv. Even though Steiner lost to triple H and Hogan got ... out of his match against the rock it was still a great ppv because its all leading up to the grand daddy of them all wrestlemania.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Pretty Good
Review: The tag team turmoil was a dead give away(like in royal rumble) because if you come out near last you have a good chance of winning.in rvd and goldust match it was just boring.Also william regal had some brass nucks in his trunks. the # one contender match was a rip off but stephanie got hit a lot. The rocks match was the best on the card because of the ending(it suprised me. Then in the undisputed match was very borring they were just chopping and hitting each others heads on the turnbuckles for 30 minutes. Then the nwo comes out and paints on stone cold.

Summary: No Way Out 2002- The WWF Produced Another Blockbuster Event!
Review: The World Wrestling Federation had a lot to live up to coming into this February 17th mega event. Vince McMahon promised that the nWo (New World Order) would be at No Way Out. I do not want to spoil this event for you so I will just do a run down of this event. The nWo came out in the beginning and talked a lot of B.S. The opening contest was the tag team turmoil match with the winner receiving a shot at the WWF Tag Team Championship at Wrestlemania X-8. Many people expected the Hardyz or The Dudleyz to be victorious in this one but they were not. The ending of this was a huge surprise. I would give this match a 7.0 out of 10. Another match featured Goldust squaring off against "Mr. PPV" Rob Van Dam. This match was quite long and featured Goldust's first singles PPV match since returning at January's Royal Rumble. This match really reminded me of the 1996-1997 time period where Goldust had obessions with certain wrestlers and played some heavy mind games with them(ex: Razor Ramon and Roddy Piper). Many spots in this match were botched but al in all I give this one a 6.5 out of 10. The WWF Tag Team Titles were on the line as Tazz and Spike Dudley defended against Test and Booker T. This match was crap. I give it a 4.0 out of 10. William Regal defended the IC Title against Edge in the first ever "Brass Nuckles on a Pole Match". This match was probably the best of all 3 of Edge and Regals matches. I gave this classic encounter a 7.5 out of 10. Now we move on to the triple main event. The first match of these 3 was The Rock taking on The Undertaker. This match in my opinion was the best on the card. I gave this a 8.5 out of 10. Kurt Angle squared off against "The Game" HHH with Hunter's ex-wife Stephanie McMahon as guest referee. this match was good but not great. I have seen much better between the two. The stipulation in this match was that the winner would go to the main event of Wrestlemania o face the Undisputed Champion. I gave this a 6.5 out of 10. And finally the main event. The Undisputed Title was on the line as Y2J Chris Jericho fought Stone Cold Steve Austin. Great match with a little surprise from the nWo. I gave this one an 8.0 out of 10. So thats No Way out wraped up. I really enjoyed this event and can't wait 'till it comes on video. A must buy. Obverall this event was an easy 8.0 out of 10. Not perfect, but pretty damn good.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Great Set-Up For Wrestlemania X8
Review: This is a Great Pay Per View to be so slow. The nWo did have an impact on the main event. They came back with a bang. Good to see them back. The matches at this No Way Out set up Wrestlemania without a doubt. My match reviews go like this:

Tag Team Turmoil:
Hardy's -vs.- Dudley's -vs.- Christian & Lance Storm -vs- APA -vs.- Scotty 2 Hotty & Albert -vs.- Billy & Chuck

Started off slow but picked up when the Hardy Boys entered. Sucks how they get beat up after defeating the Dudley Boys. Pretty good opener. 4/5

RVD -Vs.- Goldust

A great match. RVD got his but kicked all over the ring, but in the end lands the 5 star frog splash. 5/5

Tag Team Title Match:
Tazz and Spike -Vs- Test and Booker T

Tazz is extra tough. Both put on a hell of a show. The ending is pretty funny. Gotta love the champs. 3.5/5

InterContinental Title Match:
Edge -Vs- William Regal

Brass Knuckles is a page out of the idea of the Ladder Match.
Edge beat the hell out of William Regal. Regal used an illegal pair of brass knuckles and knocked Edge out. A lot of nice spots for both competitors. 5/5

Rock -Vs- The Undertaker

A lot of emotions mixed in this match. This match started off very fast with the Rock landing a lot of high impact, fast paced moves. The Undertaker made this match very slow. Rock showed how great of an entertainer he was by making the match interesting again. The ending was the best of the night. 5/5

# 1 Contender Match:
Triple H -Vs- Kurt Angle Special Referee: Stephanie McMahon

A great match, but after Triple H dumped Stephanie, you knew that he had no chance in hell. Triple H did put on a show with a lot of good spots from him and Kurt. The ending sucks, but a good match. 5/5

Undisputed Title Match:
Chris Jericho -Vs- Stone Cold Steve Austin

This was not a good main event. A good match, but not main event material. The NWO made their presence in the WWE felt with their impact on the main event. Not a worthy main event. Should have been Kurt -Vs- Triple H. 4/5

This DVD is one of the slowest, as far as the matches go. The matches were drawn out and boring at some spots, but other spots showed the WWE that everybody knows and loves. I say buy it, especially if you like the nWo. I recommend that if you buy this DVD, that you also buy Wrestlemania X8.

Summary: What is this?
Review: This is probably the weakest DVD the WWF has put out yet. They edited out all the "real" music! I was at the PPV live (it seemed a lot more exciting then) and they played all the "real" music for the show, but it's dubbed over on this DVD! The official song was "Feel So Numb," by Rob Zombie which they played incessantly and was a pretty cool song, but here it's dubbed over with a dumb guitar. Undertaker doesn't come out to Limp Bizkit's "Rollin'", they dubbed in some more generic music. Edge's theme has been dubbed to his old (when he was tagging with Christian.) And RVD's kickin' new theme by Breaking Point has been replaced with his old generic song. It's not like it dramatically changes the show or anything, but the original songs were many times better. Also, there are no special features (unless chapter breaks that don't make sense and alternate Spanish commentary count) and the sound is...well, not all that great.

The show itself isn't spectacular, not NEARLY as impressive as No Way Out 2001 (one of the WWFs best...where's the DVD for THAT?) It's not a bad night of wrestling, but when you consider how stacked the card is you'd think it'd be better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BEST EVER!!!!
Review: This movie rocks! I think this is the best movie ever! I am the worlds biggest WWF fan so......... I really Know what is going on! I collect all of the videos. I thought this was the best no way out ever!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not Worth Ordering
Review: This PPV was a total bust with only the Main event, Austin vs Jericho, being watchable. The rest was just extended RAW matches. It will not be remembered so don't get it. Buy an ECW DVD, you won't regret it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: No Way Out of a Bad PPV for the WWE
Review: When it comes to the WWE and February Pay Per Views, they usually deliver. however, Hogan and the rest of the nWo screw up a potentially good show. with everyone talking about the arrival of three guys who should have called it quits three years ago, the bookers took a vacation.
Tag Team Turmoil had a very small chance of being good and it wasn't. how do the APA go over the Hardys and Storm/Christian?
RVD tried desperately to get a good match out of Goldust, but failed miserably.
Booker T and Test and Tazz and Spike was mildly OK, however, it exposed what a joke the tag division really is.
Edge and Regal put on a decent Intercontinental Title match, despite the [junky] gimmick associated with the match.
The Rock vs. Undertaker was horrible, as are most of Taker's matches. (he's still a personal favorite)
Triple H and Kurt Angle put on a good Raw main event, however, this is a pay per view and we need just a little more. (Stephanie looked really good in the ref outfit, though)
Chris Jericho vs. Steve Austin was the best match on the card, although, that isn't saying much. the only good thing about the match is that the WWE realized that Chris Jericho totally kicks some [rear] and they put him over Austin.
All in all, a disappointing show which could have been really good. i have been watching WWE wrestling my whole life and this was one of the badder shows.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: nWo- new World order!
Review: WWE Tag Team Title Match:
Spike and Tazz{c} vs Booker T and Test **(out of *****)
-Umm.. why are Booker T and Test here? Why not switch them with a
deserving team like Christian and Lance? Booker T and Test have not wrestled as partners in a long time and they get a ttitle shot? This makes no sense what so ever.

Tag Team Turmoil ***
-This match was not that great and could have been a whole lot better. I still don't get why the WWE didn't use the APA, Dudleys, Hardys, Billy & Chuck, or Christian and Lance Storm in the Tag Team Title Match but oh well.

Now the good stuff:

RVD vs Goldust ****
Edge vs Regal ****
'Taker vs Rock ****
HHH vs Angle ***1/2
Austin vs Y2J ***1/2

-And thats it, this PPV wasn't too bad, if only the WWE did something with that Tag Team Division. If you want a real good PPV from 2002, check out these:
Royal Rumble ****
Wrestlemania X-8 ****1/2
Judgment Day ****
Vengeance ****1/2
