Austin and HHH had such great chemistry. Hard to know if I prefer them against each other or as a team. Loved their No Way Out 01 match.

Great headliner with a red hot crowd. The best thing about it was that there was true suspense over who was going to win or at least there was 18 years ago...

I haven't seen this show but I've never seen a Benoit match cut from the network so that's odd

I thought the same. The only thing I can think is its because he wins with the crossface which they may see as mirroring the real life incident too much. Then again I'm sure there's other matches on the Network in which he uses it.
