1. Hardcore Holly defeated Billy Gunn and Al Snow by pinfall to win the Hardcore Championship
This was actually better than I remembered. All three guys gave a good effort and it was an okay way to start off the show.
Rating: 2.5
2. Owen Hart and Jeff Jarrett defeated Test and D-Lo Brown by pinfall
This was one of Vince Russo's great ideas. Let's have two guys win a battle royal and tag with one another at the biggest show of the year. Yeah, but no thanks.
Rating: 1.25
3. Butterbean defeated Bart Gunn by knockout
And there goes Bart Gunn's career...
Rating: N/R (Boxing Match)
4. Mankind defeated Big Show by disqualification
This was more of a storyline than a match, but not bad for what it was.
Rating: 1.75
5. Road Dogg defeated Goldust, Val Venis, and Ken Shamrock by pinfall
This was just an okay Raw-type match. Road Dogg sucks.
Rating: 1.75
6. Kane defeated Triple H by disqualification
This was a total snoozefest. Triple H was really getting in a groove around this time, but you would never know it from watching this match.
Rating: .75
7. Sable defeated Torrie by pinfall
Absolutely horrible.
Rating: 0
8. Shane McMahon defeated X-Pac by pinfall
This was a real good match. Both guys kept up a quick pace and it paid off.
Rating: 3.5
9. Undertaker defeated Big Boss Man by pinfall
Among the worst matches in WrestleMania history. Who really thought that the Boss Man would stand a chance. Poor booking choice.
Rating: 0
10. Steve Austin defeated The Rock by pinfall
***Match of the Night***
Another great Steve Austin brawl. It helped that The Rock was his opponent and these two tore it up. Good end to the show.
Rating: 4
Well, this show contains a great main event and one good match. Unfortunately, it also contains two of the worst matches I've ever seen. All of the rest is just pretty average.
Overall Rating: 58%
