Moments - Positives
The main event was a memorable one as it was at the height of the Angle/Triple H/Stephanie love triangle and it delivered! This was also the match were Angle was concussed half way through but still finished the match. Undertaker and Kane fougts a solid match and Undertaker ended up ripping Kane's mask off. Also a classic TLC match as a triple threat tag team rematch from Wrestlemania 2000 surpassed the original. Certainly one of the matches of the year. The best moment of the whole show though was Shane's fall from the titan tron. A classic moment.
Moments - Negatives
The start of the Right to Censor gimmick wasnt very good and although it evolved well, at this stage was pretty frustrating. The first half of the event had some poor matches in comparison to the second half and although entertaining, the stinkface match was pretty awful.
Overall
This was certainly a great show and it delivered everything which was expected. Coming off a solid Fully Loaded PPV event, this show continued the trend WWF were going through at the time where the second half of their PPV shows made the events and the first half seemed either hastily put together or of poor quality. Despite this though, the show was very very good.
SCORE = 8.5
