The Hogan/Vince match was HORRIBLE except for the ending. Does Vince understanbd that when he, as a non-wrestler, dominates Hogan who is one of his top card guys, he only succeeds in making his entire roster look bad? The 10 minute test of strength was so ludicrous I actually left the room. Vince's ego is out of control. The Piper run in was cool, but man is he FAT now. I hope they go somewhere with the run in and not just let it go unexplained. Oh wait, this is the WWE, of course it will never make sense.

What should have happened was for Hogan to dominate and bloody Vince, then let Roddy do the run in and brain Hogan with the pipe. Then it would MAKE SENSE for Vince to dominate Hogan until the inevitable "Hulk Up" Then Piper could come on Smackdown and explain himself, saying how everyone was arguing over who created the WWE, Vince or Hogan, when it was Piper who was in the ring with Hogan for years making him look good. The more the fans hated him, the more they loved Hogan. This of course would come in Piper's own signature half insane style of promo. This would end up in a Backlash grudge match brawl, giving Piper some time to lose the gut, where Hogan would finally pin Piper (he never has pinned Piper in all those years).

Jericho/Michaels was awesome. Jericho is the man.

HHH/Booker T - Ugh. They spent months building up Booker T to have him get punked out by HHH long after the finisher was applied. Booker T is done. Another victim of the HHH factor. I don't even know why I bother watching his matches anymore. They are long, plodding and you know who's going to win in the end. Pathetic.

Brock/Angle - Good match, and man did Brock overextend himself with the shooting star. If it was a little closer he could have nailed it. There is a reason Billy Kidman pulls the guy 2 inches from the post when he does his.

The rest... bleh. Even the 3 team tag match was awkward.

Definitely not the best IMO... The best ever would have to be either 17 or 3, with 3 winning narrowly. You just can't beat Savage/Steamboat for the IC strap. Best North American match ever, IMO
