PERFECT carnage.
It really was.

They really set the bench mark and I honestly don't think that can be beat. I mean you're going to have to be pretty creative and pretty daring to even think about beating it. I mean a 300 pound man going falling off a 20 foot ladder in the middle of the ring through four tables on the outside, I don't think any other 300 pound man could pull that off, sounded like a legit car crash.

It's why TLC II had the inevitable recycled spots come WrestleMania 17. Only a few, but fact remains. Original set the bar SO high. Then they add in Chris Jericho & Chris Benoit a few weeks after and TLC III ends up being near the level of TLC I. So they managed to change things up to keep it great. I'm a mark for nearly every TLC match so I'll continue to show my love for the gimmick. :eek:

(I say this as last night I watched a TLC match that I legit didn't like. ha.)

One Night Stand 2005

Lance Storm vs. Chris Jericho ***1/2 (Fun opening match but not long enough to get ****)

Tajiri vs. Little Guido vs. Super Crazy *** (good 6 minute match)

Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Psichosis ***

Sabu vs. Rhyno **1/2

Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero **3/4 (was I the only one who expected this to be a lot better?)

Mike Awesome vs. Masato Tanaka ****1/2

Dudley Boyz vs. Sandman & Tommy Dreamer **1/2 (Too much baggage. Sandman's entrance lasted forever. BWO,Balls Mahoney, and Axl Rotten had run-ins. The whole thing was just a mess to me. The match itself was alright, but mostly hard weapon shots and not much else. The use of a cheese grater was pretty cool though)

Overall, decent show. Definitely easy to sit through but I didn't like the abundance of time given to the "WWE invading" stuff. It led to nothing particularly interesting and some of the chants from the crowd were utterly cringe-worthy.

Overall though, 7.5/10

The Mike Awesome vs. Masato Tanaka match is the only great match here in my opinion and it's recommended.

Yeah TLC I is pretty awesome. Second best TLC match ever with TLC III ahead of it.
You know what? TLC III really isn't sticking in my mind right now. I think I am going to give that a watch right now in fact!

Yeah, I was a fan of TLC II, I think we all love it and I do think it sort of gets overrated due to it being on one of, if not the greatest Wrestlemania of all time as well as having the Edge spear spot off the ladder.

Indeed. I agree. I still rank it high, but that shouldn't surprise anyone.

Give III & IV a watch right now. III is epic & IV is probably the most underrated TLC match given by WWE.

Unforgiven 2004
15:07 Batista &Flair vs Regal & Benoit - **3/4
8:22 Victoria vs Trish Stratus - **
6:25 Tyson Tomko vs Steven Richards - No Rating and quite possibly the worst PPV match ever
22:29 Chris Jericho vs Christian - ***
18:04 Shawn Michaels vs Kane - **1/2
9:41 La Resistance vs Tajiri & Rhyno - *3/4
24:44 Triple H vs Randy Orton - ***

Overall: 6.5/10 - not bad but nothing great either. I still hate the ending to the main event and wish they had kept the belt on Orton longer. The most memorable moment from the night was Jericho receiving a steel enema.
