No Mercy 2002

1. Chris Jericho + Christian defeated Booker T + Goldust by pinfall

This was a solid opener, but nothing spectacular. Booker T was quite over here and it's a shame that they never really capitalized on it.

Rating: 2.75 (out of 5)

2. Torrie Wilson defeated Dawn Marie by pinfall

This was horrible, as you would expect. Next.

Rating: .25

3. Rob Van Dam defeated Ric Flair by pinfall

These two just had no chemistry together. Flair was just a shell of his former self at this point.

Rating: 2

4. Jamie Noble defeated Tajiri by pinfall

I actually was hoping for this to be a little bit better. I am a big fan of Tajiri's, so I enjoyed it, just not as much as I thought.

Rating: 2.75

5. Triple H defeated Kane by pinfall

This wasn't as horrible as I remembered, but it sure wasn't great either. The last few minutes really saved this from being a stinker. It just really hurt since everyone knew that Kane had no chance of winning.

Rating: 2

6. Kurt Angle + Chris Benoit defeated Rey Mysterio + Edge by pinfall to win the WWE Tag Team Championships

***Match Of The Night***

This is probably the greatest two-on-two standard tag team match that I have ever seen. These guys were all on fire during this time period and this was no exception. Awesome match.

Rating: 4.75

7. Trish Stratus defeated Victoria by pinfall

Trish wasn't quite there yet, so this was sloppy. Oh well.

Rating: .75

8. Brock Lesnar defeated Undertaker by pinfall

This was a very slow paced and brutal match. If you love those types of matches, then this is probably one of your favorite Hell In A Cell matches. If that's not your thing, you still have to admit this is a solid main event.

Rating: 3.25

Well, you had one unbelievable match and a good main event. But there were a lot of forgettable matches on this card and that really brings it down. Still, you can't go wrong with the two big matches, so it is worth a look.

Overall Rating: 72%
