Rating: Summary: "there are better WWF/WWE DVD¿s out there and lots of them" Review: WWF No Way Out 2002 is possibly and probably the worst pay per view (ppv) of 2002, the wrestling was for the most part poor and the New World Orders Return was to most people a disappointment. Below is a review of all the matches and the overall DVD, hopefully it will help you decide if you should buy this DVD or not. The review will not directly give away who wins any of the matches but the winner may seem pretty obvious by my explanations of some of the matches.( Match Reviews ) --- Tag Team Turmoil Match for a Title Shot at Wrestlemania 18 - Hardy Boyz Vs Dudley Boyz Vs Christian and Lance Storm Vs APA Vs Scotty 2 Hotty and Albert Vs Billy and Chuck --- This was for the most part a fast paced match, the Hardyz made there return allowing for Jeff to do some of his high risk moves. The last two team to be in this match are in my opinion the two least entertaining teams in the match. I believe the winners are undeserving. Although the match truly is not bad it is still the worst tag team turmoil match the WWE has put together that I can think of. (5.5/10) --- Goldust Vs Rob Van Dam --- This was a basic RVD match except this is slower then usual and contained a few cool moves and submissions by Goldust. This match dragged on at points however it did go back and fourth, contain some cool counters and have some stiff moves, pretty good match. (5.5/10) --- WWF Tag Team Championship Match - Tazz and Spike Dudley Vs Booker T and Test --- There is not much to say about this average tag match that contained some sloppy moves and a pretty good and slightly comical finish. (4/10) --- Brass Knuckles on a Pole Match for the WWF Intercontinental Championship Match - William Regal Vs Edge --- This was like a cheap version of a ladder match, it contained some high impact moves however the biggest move of the match turned out very sloppy. The finish is screw jobbed however it works alright with the match. (5.5/10) --- The Rock Vs Undertaker --- Despite this matches fast start the action in this moves pretty slowly, the match contains some sloppy moves and long walks through the crowd and around the ring. There is pretty good back and fourth action and again, although the finish is screw jobbed and chaotic it worked alright with the match. (4.5/10) --- No. 1 Contender Match - Triple H Vs Kurt Angle --- This whole match is basically a chaotic screw job served with a bunch of ref bumps. This suplex filled match was poorly paced and to unrealistic, even for wrestling. (4/10) --- Undisputed WWF Championship Match - Chris Jericho Vs The Rock --- This match was a huge chop fest, the chops where basically needed to give the crowd any sort of life. The match moves around the ring and contains 3 repetitive superplexes. Austin and Jericho do a good job of countering each other's finishers. I believe the screwjob finish did not work because the interferer's of the match provided minimal damage. It is predictable but overall not an bad match, by my count the best on the card. (6/10) ( Overall DVD ) The DVD itself is poorly put together with no extra features, some superstar and the ppv music is changed to much poorer themes. There is no 3 minute or so music video to start off the show, The show starts immediately with a short graphic and pyro that lasts about 3 seconds. None of the matches are absolutely horrible (although some come close) but none of them are anything special either. The whole show is rather boring to sit threw. The three main events plus the pole match end in screw jobs. The New World Order's return was a disappointment by my standards and not a good enough reason to buy this DVD. The reason I gave this DVD 1 star is because I simply cannot recommend it to more than 20% of all wrestling fans. The fans I could just maybe recommend it to are those who where at the event, those who like to collect historic footage and those who like to collect wrestling DVD's despite there overall quality. Its your choice but there are better WWF/WWE DVD's out there and lots of them.
Rating: Summary: No Way Out 2002 marks a new beginning Review: WWF No Way Out 2002 was headlined by three main events. But the biggest storyline of all(and most disappointing in my opinion) was the return of the nWo. Now for those of you unfamiliar with the old WCW programming, nWo consisted of Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and Hollywood Hogan(yes, Hulk Hogan). Now at first they come out and say that they're all good and such, but by the end they proved otherwise. The matches include: -Tag Team Turmoil: APA, Billy&Chuck, Hardy Boyz, Dudley Boyz, Christian&Lance Storm, and Scotty&Albert. -RVD vs. Goldust -WWF Tag Team Championship: Booker T& Test vs. Spike&Tazz(champs) -Brass Knucks on a pole match for the WWF Intercontinental Championship: Edge vs. Regal(champ) -Rock vs. Undertaker -Triple H vs. Kurt Angle w/ Stephanie McMahon as referee, winner goes on to WrestleMania X8 in an Undisputed Championship match. -Undisputed Championship: Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Jericho(champ)
