Rating: Summary: 2nd best rumble Review: Royal Rumble 2001 was a great event with alot of good matches. Here are my ratings of the matches:
WWE Tag Team Championship
Edge & Christian(WWE Tag Team Champions) vs. The Dudley Boyz(Challengers)
-This is a good match. A great way to get the crowd pumped up. ***1/4
WWE Intercontinental Championship
Chris Benoit(WWE Intercontinental Champion) vs. Chris Jericho(Challenger)
-This is one of the best ladder matches ever. This is not better than HBK/Razor but I would say it's very close. Both are great athletes so I'm not surprised that this is a classic. ****1/2
Ivory vs. Chyna
-This match was pointless and short. Chyna injured her neck again. DUD
HHH vs. Kurt Angle- WWE World Championship
-This was kind of boring but I guess not all that bad. It was enjoyable at times but most people won't enjoy it. I would give it **3/4
The Rumble Match
-This was an awesome Rumble. It featured stars like The Rock, Stone Cold, The Undertaker, Kane, Rikishi, and The Hardy Boyz. It featured the returns of The Big Show, Haku, and The Honky Tonk Man. Also, Drew Carrey is in the Rumble which is very entertaining. Kane lasts an amazing 55 minutes in the Royal Rumble. The Rock and Austin go at each other with the crowd going wild. It's great non-stop action that everyone should see. ****1/2
This DVD also has extras and other stuff that will keep you entertained. Buy this DVD Now!

Rating: Summary: Great opening pay per view for 2001 Review: The 2001 Royal Rumble pretty muched lived up to the hype with some great matches and a awesome royal rumble match.The opening match is the Tag Team Championship match between The Dudley Boyz & champions Edge & Christian. Suprisingly good match between two of the most successful tag teams ever. Get everybody hyped up for the pay per view. Next is a ladder match between Chris Jericho & Intercontinental Champion Chris Benoit. Could be the match of the night. Features some brutal hardcore moves like, Chris Jericho's chair shot to Chris Benoit when he's jumping out of the ring. Highspeed match between these two talented athletes. The next match is Chyna vs. Ivory for the Women's Championship. This was on its way to being a pretty good match but ends with Chyna reinjuring her neck. Better than there Wrestlemania match but the ending is worse. The WWF Championship match between Champion Kurt Angle & Triple H, is an ok main event. Things get stupid when Trish Stratus & Stephanie McMahon Helmsley start having a chick fight in the middle of the ring. Match ends with Stone Cold interfering. The Royal Rumble match was full of surprises. Here are some highlights. Jeff Hardy enters the match at number 1, with his brother entering at #3. Its fun to see the Hardy Boyz fighting. Also, the Honky Tonk Man makes a special appearance, as well as Drew Carey, Haku, & The Big Show who gives a vicious chokeslam to The Rock on the announcers table. Most people should be impressed with Kane on this DVD, as he was in the match for over and hour, and elimanted more people than anyone. Other participants inlcude The Undertaker, Stone Cold, The Rock, & Rikishi.
