First off, if you want match recaps, read them at 1wrestling.com or watch Raw. Here are my non match recap imressions:
1. nWo got a LOUD ovation, and when Hollywood first took the mic, it was deafening.
2. The pyro they do is AWESOME and it's unbelievably loud. TV doesn't do justice to how damn loud their pyro is.
3. The Hardy Boys got a very large pop, much more than the Dudley's who I prefer
4. RVD also got great fan response
5. Rock and Triple H got great responses, Angle got a lot of boos, good heel response.
6. Suprisingly, Austin didn't get nearly as loud of cheers as Rock and HHH. I was suprised.
7. The place exploded when the nWo came out and nailed Austin and spray painted him. It was great.
8. The PPV ended with Austin laying in the ring, spray painted and beaten up with the nWo walking off. But in the arena, after the nWo left, Scott Hall came back by himself and tried to beat up Austin some more, but Austin fought back, stunned Hall, and then poured beer all over him and drank a few himself.
The only wrestling I had ever been to before this was house shows, and I gotta tell ya, WWF No Way out was AWESOME. The matches were all great, (Austin vs Jericho was kinda slow paced and not many moves, a TON of Ric Flair chops, more of a brawl) and it was really fun. Probably the last wrestling event I'll ever attend, and it's great that so many of the great wrestlers were there and made appearances, Flair, Taker, Rock, HHH, Austin, Hogan, Hall, Nash, Jericho, DDP, William Regal (my favorite wrestler FYI he won too) and many more, Stephaie McMahon was great as the guest ref, she took a couple good shots, Vince came out and got nailed by Rock, all in all it was really fun. And I paid for the trip entirely, and made about 50 bucks extra at the casino afterwards, so that's doubly good.
Final Thought: nWo got a LOT of heat, and Hogan can still be a huge draw.
