Late, late upload. The damn rendering took a bit. With regards to this, I was intending to release another video today, but that was far too challenging to actually complete by today. I think that video will come this week. As for Armageddon 2002, it's missing another good match. If the main event delivered, people would look at it more fondly. What did you think of Armageddon 2002?
Seeing Shawn Michaels holding Big Goldie for a hot minute was fascinating and interesting to me, being that I started watching religiously in '98 when he semi retired, I felt he could have held more Championships, especially when Triple H was sucking up the legitimacy of the title in '02-'04.
@@bradlee5874 Of course, he got his life and spirit in check with God and got a second chance to be Shawn Michaels of old, in-ring wise. But, he should have won the championship more, along with Booker T and more...
HBK didn't want to be champion, in fact he was even against holding THIS title and only accepted because he would be dropping the belt after a month. I suppose it's worth remembering that most of his world titles runs ended with him having to go into rehab either for drug addiction or to nurse an injury so that might be the explanation.
@@jonathancampbell5231 it worked both ways for HHH (mostly) and HBK. HHH was HANDED the world title on a gold platter and was gonna be given a loooooong title run (from Sep 2002 - Sep 2003), but in order to break that up, they gave HBK (his best friend) a title run in the middle of that. At the time, many people wanted HBK to be world champion again, but he didn't. And since HBK wanted HHH to be the man of Raw, he pushed for him to be that guy.
I liked that Armageddon. Benoit vs Eddie was a good match, Edge vs A Train was a good mid card match, the main event was awesome. I wish there was still more 3 stages of hell matches that felt personal like that match.
No Way Out 2001-Stone Cold and HHH in the first unofficial 3 Stages of Hell Match on a WWF PPV? That felt personal despite the stupid “Who Ran Over Stone Cold” Angle datong back to Survivor Series 1999.
7 months after Armageddon 2002, Benoit and Guerrero would battle for the vacant United States Championship at Vengeance 2003. Another 8 months later, they would celebrate together at WrestleMania XX. The Radicalz Reign Supreme in WWE!
Angle show was a good match it played on how hard big show was to move and then when brock came in and just hoisted him effortlessly on his shoulders it added to the impact
Big Show once said that Lesnar was the third strongest guy in the company after Mark Henry and John Cena. He ranked Cena above Lesnar because while both men can lift him on their shoulders, he could feel that Cena had less trouble lifting him than Brock did, and Henry of course was the strongest because he is legitimately one of the strongest men in the world.
I thought Armageddon 02 was a solid show and had some great matches, Eddie Guerrero Vs Chris Benoit was a true wrestling classic showcasing exactly why both of them were the best wrestlers in the world, Kurt Angle Vs Big Show was surprisingly very good but then again, Kurt Angle can have a good match with anyone and him winning the WWE title to a massive pop was an epic moment. Batista Vs Kane was short and sweet but did a great job in making Batista look like a true monster. The Triple H Vs Shawn Michaels 2 out of three falls match was great but a bit too long winded, such a shame that this would be the last time that HBK would hold the world title but I still think their Summerslam 02 was their best. Booker T and Goldust winning the tag team titles was an emotional moment. Overall I quite enjoyed this ppv. Great review and keep up the good work
I forgot how good WWE was in the Ruthless Aggression era too. They elevated new stars and kept it fresh. First names I think of when I think about that era is-Brock Lesnar, Eddie Guerrero, RVD, Randy Orton, John Cena, Chris Benoit, Rey Mysterio, and Kurt Angle and Batista.
Thanks for the review! For some reason one of the main matches I remembered from this paperview was Kane and Batista. Loved that match and anytime those two wrestle.
I be listening to your talk about this stuff all the time lol imma know so much about wrestling I used to watch it but as you know it not the same anymore
@@wrestlingspremier Oh finally. Cause I go crazy when people talk about my Ruthless Aggression Era. Screw the attitude era (ask Mattel & you’ll know why I hate that era now). Plus Randy Orton promo on the VIP Laough in 2009 was not controversial. People that are saying that are pre SJWs & that’s a fact.
Disappointing?! Btw I love ur videos so much fun so much content but yeah aramgeddon 02 is not disappointing I loved every bit of it, the only thing is its just forgotten for no reason, it was very eventful with good matchups with raw and smackdown showcasing who’s gonna steal the show !
2002 had weird storyline choices,Booking 2002 after Vengeance would have seen Chris Jericho defend his WWF Undisputed Title against The Rock and Stone Cold with Jericho defeating The Rock after interference from the New World Order who would instead debut at Royal Rumble and attack Stone Cold and Hogan and Rock would have a stare down signifying a future meeting between Hulk Hogan and The Rock.No Way Out could see Jericho defend his Undisputed Title in a Six Pack Challenge with Jericho defending his title against Kurt Angle,Kane,The Undertaker,Stone Cold,and The Rock with Jericho defeating all of the competitors and advance to his match with HHH at WrestleMania 18 with HHH defeating Jericho gaining his revenge against Jericho for putting him out for months.HHH and Jericho would have a rematch at BackLash with the feud being built around Jericho and HHH again with the build up being Jericho attacking the quad of The Game to build up the match with the stipulation at BackLash being No Holds Barred with Jericho mostly focusing in on the healing quad of HHH but HHH would manage to power out of the pain to defeat Jericho to retain.Jericho would become outraged not being able to beat HHH for the Undisputed Title but this would see Jericho target The McMahons and form his own faction known as The UnAmericans feeling disrespected by the many times the company has betrayed Canadians in Wrestling.Jericho and HHH would decide to have a Hell In A Cell match after HHH named his stipulation on RAW and this would also see Jericho and HHH have a contract signing on that Smackdown for the build up to Judgement Day.HHH and Y2J would have a Hell In A Cell match at Judgement Day with HHH defeating Jericho finally ending the feud between The Game and Y2J.Triple H would next defend his Undisputed Title at King Of The Ring against Hulk Hogan which would see The Game defeat The Icon Of Professional Wrestling and also have a pose down with the Hulkster.Triple H would also defend his Undisputed Title against Kurt Angle at WWF Insurrextion with The Game defeating The American Hero and retaining his Undisputed Title.Triple H would be forced to defend his Undisputed Title against The Undertaker,Kurt Angle,and The Rock at Vengeance which would see The Rock win the WWE Undisputed Title.Brock Lesnar would challenge The Rock at SummerSlam for the WWE Undisputed Title after proving his World Title credibility by defeating Hulk Hogan at Vengeance and winning the King Of The Ring Tournament at KOTR.Brock would defeat The Rock for the Undisputed Title and this would see The Beast Incarnate defeat Rock to win his first World Title.Unforgiven would see a Tournament be held to crown a new World Heavyweight Champion which would see HHH and RVD in the finals and The Nature Boy as Special Guest Referee with Ric doing the unbelievable by assisting Triple H in winning the World Heavyweight Title.Brock Lesnar would have a match with The Undertaker at Unforgiven with Brock defeating The Undertaker to retain his WWE Undisputed Title.No Mercy would see HHH and RVD have a rematch at for the World Heavyweight Title with the stipulation being a Steel

where HHH would defeat RVD after gaining some assistance from Randy Orton and Batista and Ric Flair who would both attack RVD(while trying to attempt a Frog Splash)and Batista would nail Shawn with a Batista Bomb and setting up HHH for the win.Edge and Test could have had a rematch for the WWE Intercontinental Title with Edge defeating Test once again to retain his title at Vengeance.Royal Rumble would have seen Christian become involved and resulting in a Triple Threat match for the Rumble with Edge defeating his former best friend and rival in an IC Title match.Edge and Christian would have

18 in a ladder match with RVD winning his first IC Title in WWE.RVD and Edge could have a rematch for BackLash with RVD defeating Edge in a pure classic until Eddie Guerrero returned and attacked both RVD and Edge at the exact same time.
I swear HHH was wayyyyyyyy more obsessed with the world heavyweight championship than he ever was with the WWE championship it was kind of scary at times
@@itachi-kun7736 I did like between 2002 and 2010 both titles were treated equally pretty much starting in 2011 the world title might as well have been a midcard belt
@@itachi-kun7736 Agree. But I think they did that just to make the World Title as big and equal to the WWE Championship, Same with the Universal Title these days.

Kurt Angle called Jonathan Coachman an idiot during a backstage interview was totally unnecessary.

Big Show's from Tampa, Florida, I think.

This was one of the best 3 Stages of Hell matches I thought and one of the best matches of the year.
I didn’t even know much about the HBK & HHH feud until I played wwe 2k15 showcase based on them
It's up there with the Austin/HHH 3 stages of hell from NWO 2001
@@Braylon1997 Same I guess it shows how young I am because when I played that game I was like “they had a rivalry?”

2002 as a whole was just a great year in my opinion I might be biased cause these are some of my first ppvs especially this one being my very first
Kurt Angle's last WWE PPV wearing his "ANGLE" Boots before reverting back to his Red Boots full time.

It feels like 2 years packed into 1. So much happened.

@@Wrestling316 attitude era ended in April 2001

Dawn and Torrie making out makes this the greatest PPV ever
And now thanks to the internet, we can enjoy it without having to sit/skip through half the show 😄
I was upset they did let Michaels held the championship at least more than 30 days, this was his last singles championship win
I read somewhere a few years ago that he wanted to give the younger guys a chance.
@@dmaster92289 yeah and Shawn didn't want to held the main event spot like before and didn't know how long he was gonna last in his second run.
He didn’t want the belt.
Christian and Jericho was my favourite thing on television when they were together they were so funny
The end of HBK last World Title reign, singles title reign in general.

A-Train and Big Show should've been tag team champions. They were a damn good combination.
From the street fight, elimination chamber, and now 3 stages of hell. Vince was really testing shawns back early in his return.
wrestling premier is the 🐐
I don’t care about the rest of the show, Dawn and Torrie made it worth the while
And now thanks to the internet, we can enjoy it without having to sit/skip through half the show 😄
Brock Lesnar getting suspensions lifted since 2002. 20 years later and his recent one just got lifted.
Albert looks like he's wearing a hair shirt.
Like wrestling velcro
This show indeed was dissapoi ting, but that stage tho.... One of the best of all time
You’re The Best
Big Show looked good with that belt
Next ppv you should talk about no mercy 2000
The 1st of 2 Triple Threat Matches for RAW'S WWE Women's Championship during this time. The 2nd would occur with Jazz at WrestleMania XIX.
Michaels vs triple h should've been a ladder match
