Royal Rumble 2002

1. Tazz + Spike Dudley defeated The Dudley Boyz by submission

This was a fun match but was way too short. It didn't even hit 6 minutes. These guys were always underrated as they typically put on entertaining matches.

Rating: 2.25

2. William Regal defeated Edge by pinfall to win the Intercontinental Championship

This was solid stuff, but still not as good as it could have been. I always liked the whole brass knuckle stuff with Regal.

Rating: 2.5

3. Trish Stratus defeated Jazz by pinfall

This was so short and should have been so much better. Jazz was always a good competitor.

Rating: .5

4. Ric Flair defeated Vince McMahon by submission

This was pretty much Vince destroying Flair for half the match and then Flair makes the comeback and gets the win. There was no story being told and no suspense either.

Rating: 2

5. Chris Jericho defeated The Rock by pinfall

***Match Of The Night***

These guys just always put on a show. Even when they have all the goofy booking going against them, they just know how to turn it on. Awesome match.

6. Triple H won the Royal Rumble

This has to be one of the worst booked Rumbles ever. All of the big names, with the exception of Undertaker, came at the end. So you had guys like Booker T, Big Show, and Rob Van Dam being eliminated in a matter of minutes. Stupid, stupid booking.

Rating: 2.5

There is one classic match, but the rest is pretty forgettable. The Rumble isn't horrible, but just poorly planned. The rest of the card is kind of just there.
