With This Ring #67: Backlash 2000
Ryan and Cindy start the next WWF season much the same way we finished the old one, with the Rock feuding with Triple H and the McMahons. In this edition we go to Backlash, which had 5 singles matches, none of which were Terri vs. The Kat, putting it a tick above WrestleMania from the get go. Among the topics discussed:
- The start of the Vince Russo/Eric Bischoff tenure in WCW, and how that led to Mike Awesome, WCW wrestler, defending the ECW title against Tazz, WWF wrestler and how that was displayed on WWF TV.
- Chris Jericho’s brief earliest WWF title run.
- The promise of Stone Cold Steve Austin.
- The chemistry between Eddie Guerrero and his Mamacita.
- We again talk about how misplaced X-Pac and Road Dogg are in the tag division.
- Dean Malenko and Scotty Too Hotty having a notable Light Heavyweight Title match.
- SHOWESTER MANIA RUNNING WILD BROTHER!
- The Rock and Triple H having their usual Sports Enterainment Spectacular in a match that seemed more WrestleMania main event than the WrestleMania main event.
All this and much more. Enjoy!
