Summary: Best Royal Rumble!
Review: Dudley Boyz vs. Edge & Christian - ****, great match to start off show, good effort by all 4.
Jericho vs. Benoit(Ladder Match) - *****, maybe the best ladder match of all time, everyone knew Jericho was gonna come out great since hes a high-flyer, but Benoit did great aswell, very surprised.
Chyna vs. Ivory - ***, you could tell the end was really fake...
HHH vs. Kurt Angle - ****, good match, lots happening outside of the ring aswell.
Royal Rumble - ***** Best Royal Rumble match of all time, the hardcore part was probably which made it the best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: KANE RULES
Review: This was the best Royal Rumble I ever saw in my life. It starts off with a good tag match between the Dudley Boyz and Edge and Christian, then it gets HARDCORE and BRUTAL in a ladder match between Beniot and Jerico. The womans match was not good because Chyna injures her neck 3 minits in the match, it was pretty good while it lasted. Now for the wwf champion ship HHH vs. Angel, this was a good match shocking ending. Now the Royal Rumble, it was ausome but I think KANE deserved it he comes out as number 6 and is the last guy to get elimanated, but still elimanates 12 men out of 30. This is a good vhs for fans of: The Dudley Boyz, Chris Beniot, Chris Jerico, HHH, The Rock, Austin, Undertaker, and KANE, and if u are fans of The Brothers Of Destruction [like me] then get this vhs.

Summary: The best Royal Rumble ever
Review: Out of all the Royal Rumbles, this is by far the best. Some would disagree and say that the 91' Royal Rumble (Ric Flair wins), the 99' Royal Rumble (Vince McMahon wins), or even the 02' Royal Rumble (HHH wins) are better; but, to me, this was the most entertaining. Remember, I said the best Royal Rumble, not the best pay-per-view. When I say Royal Rumble, I am speaking of the Rumble match itself. From the beginning with the Hardy's going at it - to Drew Carey's enterance - to the Hardcore Rumble - to Kanes complete domination - to Austin coming out with Undertaker and Kane in the ring - all the way to the last man who stood alone..which we all know is Austin..this Rumble did not have one moment where it lost your attention. I have watched this Rumble over and over again. One of my favorite gimmick matches of all time.

The rest of the pay-per-view was stacked as well. All 3 of the major titles were on the card. The tag team championship (Edge/Christian vs. the Dudley Boyz), the intercontinental championship (Benoit vs. Jericho - Ladder Match), and the world championship (Angle vs. HHH). Oh, I totally forgot; the show stopper itself..the women's championship match between Ivory and Chyna..sense the sarcasm. I highly recommend this DVD/Video. If you're a fan of the Rattlesnake, as am I, this is a must have for you.

Summary: great match
Review: best royal rumble ever! royal rumble 2001 was the best rumble ever.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Okay Pay-Per-View
Review: I debated giving this 2 or 3 stars. It was an average performance and it was especially average considering it was a Royal Rumble. WWF Royal Rumbles are usually big and exciting. This was mediocre. I would suggest this video, but would recommend buying other PPVs first.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply a must have event
Review: If you were a WWF fan during this time period, this is a must have. All the matches were good to great, with the exception of the Chyna vs. Ivory match that was a awful waste of time, and the fake neck injury at the end was a cruel joke. Besides that, all the matches were extremely watchable. The Dudleyz vs. E & C showed some people that it isn't just gimmick matches that are carrying their careers. It was a solid match that never fails to lose your attention, with good selling for the concussions. Next is Jericho vs. Benoit in a classic ladder match. I'm glad to see a match like this that isn't all high-spots, even though those matches ae entertaining too. Also, Benoit takes a wicked shot from a steel chair when diving through the ropes. You've got to hear it to believe it. I already talked about the women's match, so next comes the world title match. A disappointment in the eyes of some people, but not to me. Angle and HHH put on a great show, with HHH working Angle's knee the whole match while Angle gets in some of his great offense occasionly. And then came the rumble, which was throughly entertaining, even though there was some slow spots.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kane steals the show!
Review: Royal Rumble 2001 is another one of the awesome shows the wwf put on in 2001. The real applause should go to the superstars as they all put on magnificent performances. Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho do inhuman things to each other with a ladder and Triple H and Kurt Angle put on an awesome technical match for the title. The "wrestler of the night award" goes to Kane as he stayed in the Rumble for an hour before being beaten by Stone Cold.Another awesome ppv by the wwf.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT RUMBLE
Review: 1st match features the Dudley Boyz vs Edge and Christian 4 the tag team titles. Not the best match ever but I would give it a 3.

2nd match was the ladder match 4 the IC belt.Probably the best ladder match eveeeeer Jericho and Benoit gives an outstanding performance in this action packed match I will rate this a 4 an a half

Third match. Chyna return's 4 revenge on the RTC when she challenges Ivory 4 the womens title.But in the end it was RTC who came out on top...They cheated. I give this match a 3

Number 4 HHH w Stephany McMahon and Kurt Angle w Trish Stratus.This match was an ok one but it was with the two peaople who at the time nobody liked.It was the run in by Stone Cold Steve Austin that cost HHH the match up.I give it a 4

Finally it is time 4 the Royal Rumble Match.30 Superstars entered in this incredible match up one coming out every 90 seconds.This was truely a great Rumble with Kane tossing Drew Carry thats right I said Drew Carry over the top rope as he was one of the 30 stars in the Rumble and the Honky Tonk man who Kane also beat with his own guitar.Stone Cold came out and HHH ran in to take his anger out on Stone Cold 4 costing him the WWF title earlier that night and Rikishi came out and seemed to have takin Austin out of the Rumble by beating him so badly.But Stone Cold got up licked his wounds <and there were plenty of them> and elimenated the man who ran him down with a car at Survivor Series 1999 Rikishi.It all came down with Austin and Kane being the last 2 in the ring it looked as if Kane would win but Stone Cold gave him a stunner and eliminated him.This Rumble had it all from weapons to guitars.Plenty of people bled.This was probably the best Rumble ever and I give it a five if I could I would give it a ten+

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Rumble that was.....
Review: This pay-per-view was great, by far the best royal rumble ive ever seen in 10 yrs of watching WWF. Every single match was good, except... 1 match, chyna injuring her neck, that was a BS ending for a match, other than that what a pay-per-view, Austin caused so much chaos to keep me content for a 3 hr period. What I am trying to say is This VHS is a must have for any true fan.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Strong rumble and ladder match; not much else
Review: The first PPV of 2001 needed to be good, as the majority of the late 2000 PPV's were utterly weak. There were five matches on the card, an average card.
Edge and Christian vs. The Dudley Boyz, Tag Titles. Very good opener, very exciting finish, but not really anything special.
Chris Benoit vs. Chris Jericho, IC Title, Ladder Match. Excellent match. Innovative and exciting. Not quite the spotfest of a TLC or anything, but a five star technical match, made only more exciting by the stipulation. Stole the show.
Chyna vs. Ivory, Women's Title. DUD. Boring lame squash with a poor ending.
HHH vs. Kurt Angle, World Title. Good, but not great. I figured that Trish and Steph would make a bigger impact. Good action, but kinda just like a really long raw main event.
Royal Rumble: Excellent rumble. Good action, very unpredictable. Several wrestlers had excelent showings, with a dramatic finish. Good overall PPV but not amazing or anything.
