A rather fun show with some bad matches and a couple of decent parts. ON TO NO WAY OUT!
I've never liked Carlito. Poor worker and a blah character. The tags with Primo were probably the highlight of his career now that I look at it. Him and good matches were very few and far between unless he was carried much like how he was in the bout I just saw vs Bourne.
I believe you mentioned earlier in this thread that you missed quite a bit of RAW/Smackdown from 05 to 06? Well Carlito was pretty good back then imo, you missed his best stuff, and if you're just judging him from his work from later years then I could understand why you would think he was bad.

Only certain matches and shows from the Summer of 2005. Wasn't able to jump back onto watching RAW full time till about June of 2006.
Alot of people share that sentiment, and I heard a ton of hype about the match but when I eventually watched it, all I could say was "this is it?". I mean, don't get me wrong... The match is AWESOME... But best WWE tag ever ? I think it's a pretty damn big stretch, and it's just my opinion. NOBODY probably agrees with me on that one but whatever
It MIGHT be in my top 7-10 tags in company history, but I'm not entirely sure. Off the top of my head I can think of four tags I would consider to be better by a nice margin (97 RAW, 01 RAW, Harts/Steiners WF, Rockers/Brainbusters 89) and I'm sure there's a few more that I'd put above it to be honest.
Power Trip Vs Jericho & Benoit... good yes. Great? Yeah sure. GOAT Raw match? NOT EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE. TAG MATCH? IN WWE... NOT EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE. OF ALL TIME? ITS LIKE COMPARING HBK/TAKER HIAC TO BOSSMAN/UNDERTAKER HIAC.

For some reason I've actually seen everything Carlito pumped out from 2005 on RAW. I don't know how, but I have. Not on the early 2006 stuff other than a few matches here and there. I assure you, I'm not a fan. In fact I like to think of myself as one of the biggest who really, really disliked him and his work. His bad attitude was laughable. Only his fault he got buried by Trips on PPV. Was waiting for the day he'd get his release, haha.
Oh, and without a doubt 2000 is the best year in the history of the WWF/WWE. The year was so strong even Sunday Night Heat was a red-hot program.

Well to me (and to most people who watched it) it pretty much represented what the Smackdown Six were all about. SD in 2002 was must-see TV, with constant amazing matches always popping out out of the SD Six - some who stick out the better are the vastly underrated Triple Threat with Rey, Angle and Benoit, as well as the No Mercy 2002 2 out of 3 Falls rematch - and the tag at NM was these guys at their very best. Insane fast paced tag action right here, baby.
The Powertrip vs Benoit/Jericho match is my 2nd favourite WWE tag match ever, though, followed by Austin & HBK vs Owen & Bulldog from Raw in 1998, Harts/Steiners Wrestlefest, and the Hart Foundation vs Brain Busters match from SummerSlam 1989.
