Advantages: Some great matches
Disadvantages: Also plenty of poor matches
No Way Out 2000 is a fairly memorable pay per view thanks to its stellar main event, and although the undercard is a bit spotty, it's a decent event for sure.
In a solid opener, Kurt Angle challenges Chris Jericho for his WWF Intercontinental Championship; an athletic and technical bout that's a great way to start things.
Less intriguing is The Dudley Boyz challenging The New Age Outlaws for the WWF Tag Team Championship; it's a messy and overly short match that never gets going and has a botch which results in Gunn getting injured.
Even worse, though, is Mark Henry facing Viscera to defend the honour of Mae Young; a terrible build-up allows a terrible match, but it's thankfully quite short at least...
One of the best matches sees Edge and Christian take on The Hardy Boyz; it's a great tag fight and although Terri Runnells perhaps gets too involved, it's still very entertaining.
Almost hard to describe as a match, Tazz fights The Big Boss Man for less than a minute before a stupid judgemental call is made; totally worthless.
Better is a No Holds Barred Match between X-Pac and Kane, with the storlyine being that X-Pac stole Kane's girlfriend, Tori, away from him. It's a good match thanks to a well built up feud and obvious history between the two.
In an epic six man tag, Too Cool (Rikishi Phatu, Scotty 2 Hotty, and Grand Master Sexay) face The Radicalz (Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn). This is a lengthy and solid bout that shows six great wrestlers at the top of their game.
After the controversial Royal Rumble 2000 ending, where nobody was sure if Big Show or The Rock won, the two went at it to decide who was the true winner.
The great main event also stems from the Royal Rumble, with Triple H defending his WWF Championship in a Hell in a Cell against Cactus Jack, and if Cactus loses, he will leave the WWF. It's a brutal fight with a memorable ending and some great stunts.
Summary: Too many poor matches but some great ones too
