Had the PPV downloaded for a few days now, never watched any of it due to ROB VAN DAM being my top priority at the moment. Invasion 2001 vs Jeff Hardy is such a fucking fun match, and it gets points for half of it's commentary being included in the "Don't Try This At Home" vids. Watching an old personal favorite of mine now, Jericho-RVD from KOTR 2002.

RVD made BROCK look awesome. He gets added to the list of guys who made BROCK look like the biggest beast in WWE history (HE IS) . Hogan, Taker, and Rock get a ton of credit for putting Brock over in dominating fashion, but RVD should get a ton of credit for Brock's early success as well. Their KOTR 2002 match together is short, but very sweet. Never saw their Vengeance match, might check it out somewhere down the line when I go on another BROCK binge.

BROCK

I'm 90 percent convinced that if Brock was here from 2002 to present, that he'd be in the GOAT (in-ring anyways) discussion by now, or atleast GOAT in WWE. Dude is a fucking BEAST, and has a better match catalog than a ton of guys who have been in the business for 10-15 years, despite working two full time years in the WWE.

Doesn't work a match in 8 years ; has one of the greatest matches of all time

Shits ALL OVER Shawn's comeback match, and Shawn was only gone for four years

Wasn't it only 5 years? Unless we're talking WWE only.

I like the Vengeance Brock/RVD match, more than KOTR. ***1/4 for it.

Hogan/Lesnar is fucking awesome. Re-watched it a few months ago for the first time since... fuck knows when. Perhaps underrated as an actual match as when people bring it up they just talk about how Hogan put over Lesnar. ***1/2 for it I think I gave it.

RVD/Hardy Invasion is insanely fun. Shame their SS ladder match was a fucking disaster and up there as one of the worst ladder matches in company history.

WWF No Way Out 2001 - Intercontinental Championship: Chris Jericho vs. Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero vs. X-Pac

Wall-to-wall action, Non-stop action from bell-to-bell. This one of the better total spotfests matches in the WWF, reminded me of the late 90's stuff in WCW. They built the pace of the match, played off stuff with Benoit & Eddie teaming up and then that disintegrating and then epic Benoit vs. Eddie shit, X-Pac and Eddie both wanting revenge on Jericho, just a bunch of great stories. And a ton of amazing nearfalls. ****

I only found that Brock/RVD KOTR match to be decent. My enjoyment of RVD isn't huge like it was years ago.

Shame here some people don't own the Lesnar Blu-Ray with the sweet extras on it. There is a Flair Raw match against Brock in '02 that rules.

How were Lesnar's matches in Japan? Haven't seen any of them.

[The Beast Incarnate]

Gave Hogan/Lesnar the EXACT same rating. Fucking AWESOME match, and the fact that BROCK got that great of a match out of Hogan despite it having no build in TWO THOUSAND AND FUCKING TWO blows my god damned mind.

I'm talking strictly WWE, in which Brock wrestled approx. 86 televised/PPV matches (including the two in 2012). IIRC he has like 12-13 ****+ matches, which would probably mean that he has the highest percentage of his matches being awesome than anybody else in company history. Seriously, the only BAD Lesnar match I can think of is his match vs Goldberg, which is the GOAT in terms of comedy.

DUDE FUCKING OWNS.

Nothing worth seeing. The Angle match was disappointing.

As for Hogan in 02... I actually quite liked his run for the most part. Avoid the HHH PPV match and he did some good stuff all things considered.
