Moments - Positives

Personally I think it is difficult to find any stand-out moments from this PPV match. I thought The Rock was clearly coming through as the future star during this show and he was probably the standout of the whole event. The Vader/Kane match was also ok and the feud building up for it was great. The main event was solid but clearly missed HBK so difficult to call it out as a main positive.

Moments - Negatives

The first few matches were average, the Light Heavyweight division still dissapointed and the whole event truly missed HBK. The whole point of this event was to continue the build up to Austin/HBK at Mania 14 however as a result of HBKs injury, the below average Savio Vega took his place which made the main event a poor main event of Raw let alone a PPV main event!

Overall

I would consider this one of the worst WWF In Your House events in history. The whole event lacked a major unmissable match and it truly showed. The main event was poor and the whole show was a long episode of Raw or Smackdown rather than a PPV show. You would have wanted your money back. By the way this was the first PPV to sport the new design of the WWF logo in the corner - a truly poor show to start off the Attitude era officially.

SCORE = 6.0
