Summary: Great PPV, especially the streetfight between Shane & Kurt.
Review: This was a pretty good PPV video. It had a lot of cool matches and a few poor ones too. The two main matches on this PPV are the bloody streetfight between Shane McMahon and Kurt Angle. I thought this match was going to be a dud when I rented it last year, but to my suprise, it wasn't! It was one of the best streetfights of 2001, and I love it. Angle suplexes poor old Shane McMahon through two glass walls and gives him an angle slam from the top turnbuckle in the corner of the ring! Oh, my gosh! This match is da bomb!!! Fans of hardcore wrestling won't be disappointed. Stone Cold Steve Austin takes on Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho in an awesome triple threat match for the WWE Championship. Watch for Booker T to interfere in the match near the end and slam Austin through the Spanish announce table. Chris Benoit suffers a career threatening injury during this matchup as well. The only duds on this PPV were: the meeting between The Undertaker and Diamond Dallas Page & the match between Jeff Hardy and X-Pac. Other than that, this PPV rocked!!! Get it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great PPV!!
Review: This WWF PPV was the first WWF PPV that I got on DVD. And I must say it was great. The KOR tourney could've been better but the rest of the matches were pretty much entertaining. The confrontation between DDP and the Undertaker was okay and enoyable to see Undertaker beat DDP all over the ring. The main event was a bit long but very good, and the street fight was the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen. Shane taking those bumps was just eye popping. Shane Vs. Agle (the Street Fight) was the best match on the card. This also has one extra. Get this DVD!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best K.O.R. winners ever!!
Review: This years King Of The Ring was way better than some we have had over the years. Giving the title to Edge was a good choice, he has the early signs of a Rock/Austin type push a few years down the road, and they will all point back to classic matches and this tournament win. Also Booker T. jumps Austin during the 5 star 3 way dance (in which Beniot hurt his neck, and hasn't wrestled since). Also DDP confronts the Undertaker. Well worth getting, heck buy 2 and give 1 to your mom.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the better KOR's
Review: Throughout the years, King Of The Ring has typically been one of the WWF's biggest lemons. There's a good chance that the show will be a dud; however, the 2K1 edition of KOR proved that theory otherwise.
This DVD is worth a buy, if nothing else, for the epic Kurt Angle-Shane McMahon street fight. This match features so many high spots (and wicked bumps by Shane), varying styles, transitions, and changes of pace that it takes a good half-hour to recover after viewing it. It's a definite match of the year contender.
The main event is also very good, although not a classic like the street fight.
The tournament matches are exemplary for what they are (a particular standout moment is the Edge vs. Rhyno "gore meets spear" spot), and Kurt Angle proves his working ability by working a total of three matches for the event.
The last WWF PPV before the coming of the alliance.

Rating: 3 stars

Summary: Kurt Angle fans rejoyce!!
Review: When WWE fans think of the King of Ring PPV's, they automatically think of the 1998 show because of the Mankind/Undertaker "Hell in a Cell" match. While I really enjoyed the 1998 show, I almost enjoyed the 2001 King of the Ring more. The main reason why this PPV was so good was because of Kurt Angle. He competed in three matches over the course of the night. The best match of the night, and my favorite match of all time would have to be Kurt Angle vs Shane McManon in the Street Fight. The match was excellent from start to finish. The most shocking thing about the match was seeing Shane being thrown though glass not once, but twice in a row!! Shane did a great job despite the fact that he is not a full time wrestler. The thing that made Kurt Angle so impressive, was the fact that it was Kurt's third match of the night. He got better as the night went on. The other great match of the night had to be Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Chris Jericho vs Chris Benoit. It started out slowly, but picks up speed and becomes a very good match. Another highlight of the night was seeing Booker T make his WWE debut.

Overall, I can only give this PPV 4 stars. Aside from the Kurt Angle matches, and the last match with Jericho, Benoit, and Austin, the rest of the card was pretty mediocre. The PPV is definately worth owning and you will be entertained. But, dont expect King of the Ring 2001 to be well rounded.
