That WM may not be one of the best but the best match of the PPV and the year for that matter had to be the fantastic bump ride that was the Triangle Ladder Match for the Tag Team title that was between the Dudley Boyz going against the Hardy Boyz and Edge & Christian. It was just insane. All 6 men put everything on the line and did their best to make their Wrestlemania debut the biggest ever and they did. Ladders and Tables were just being used all over the place in the most unique and dangerous methods I have ever seen. Just seeing Jeff Hardy dive off a 20-foot ladder smashing through Bubba and a table was one huge mark out moment. Seriously, you have to watch it if you haven't already. ;)

It will work for a little bit but then it'll be back to square one.

Wrestlemania 2000 is one of the forgotten Wrestlemanias for good reason, it just wasn't very good. Outside the awesome Triangle Ladder Match and the Chris Jericho vs Kurt Angle vs Chris Benoit 2-for-1 match (which I don't even remember much of, just Angle losing both belts withou being pinned, but it had to be good with these three, even when Kurt was this young), nothing was terrific. The main event was ruined by the screw job ending. The Hardcore Battle Royale or whatever was a pretty fun batch of chaotic mayhem and the only other matches I remember were T&A (Teast and Albert) vs HeadCheese (Snow and Blackman) and Kane and Rikishi (just go ahead and try to figure that one out, I dare you) vs someone, where Pete Rose tried to attack Kane again and got the stink face:?.

It wasn't awful, but just not a quality Wrestlemania, either.
