Unforgiven 2002 Review

A D.Q.? A damn D.Q.?

Kane, Goldust, Booker T and Bubba Ray Dudley defeated The Un-Americans (Lance Storm, Christian, William Regal and Test) (9:59)
Kane pinned Storm after a Chokeslam.
***
Big Clusterfuck = Good for me.

Chris Jericho defeated Ric Flair to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship (6:16)
Jericho forced Flair to submit with the Walls of Jericho.
**
Short and sweet.

Eddie Guerrero defeated Edge (11:55)
Guerrero pinned Edge with a sunset flip off the middle rope.
***1/2
Much better this month. THey'd have an even better match the next Smackdown.

Three Minute Warning (Rosey and Jamal) defeated Billy and Chuck (6:38)
Jamal pinned Gunn after a Super Samoan drop.
½*
Generic stuff.

Triple H defeated Rob Van Dam to retain the World Heavyweight Championship (18:17)
Triple H pinned RVD after a Pedigree and Ric Flair hit him with a sledgehammer.
**1/4
A little long but it got it's point across.

Trish Stratus defeated Molly Holly to win the WWE Women's Championship (5:46)
Stratus pinned Molly after a wheelbarrow Bulldog.
*
Whatever.

Chris Benoit defeated Kurt Angle (13:55)
Benoit pinned Angle with his feet on the ropes.
****1/2
The MOTY at this point.

As a result of Three Minute Warning winning earlier, Stephanie McMahon had to perform "Hot Lesbian Action". One of the lesbians turned out to be Rikishi, who ended up giving Eric Bischoff a Stinkface.

WWE Champion Brock Lesnar fought The Undertaker to a no-contest (20:27)
The match was declared a no contest after the referee lost control during a brawl between the two men, as a result Lesnar retained the title.
After the match, The Undertaker and Lesnar continued fighting, resulting in The Undertaker throwing Lesnar through the Unforgiven stage sign.
**1/4
Pretty good I guess, although the finish wasn't what I liked. Undertaker refused to job here so hence the D.Q.

2 really good matches on here including a MOTY candidate.

~ September 26 – Edge beat Eddie Guerrero in a No-DQ Match. ****1/4

~ September 26 - Rey Mysterio beat Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit. ****

~ October 3 – Rey Mysterio beat Chris Benoit. ***3/4

~ October 7 – Kane beat Christian & Chris Jericho, Bubba Ray & Spike Dudley, and RVD & Jeff
Hardy in a TLC match to retain the Tag Team Titles. ***3/4
