September Classics: Chris Jericho vs. Rob Van Dam - Unforgiven 2001

We get to the Invasion angle here. RVD has won the Hardcore title and puts it on the line against Jericho. RVD's overness was evident from the get go but yet they anchored him with The Alliance. I feel Jericho was getting rather stale as a babyface here, and would in fact turn heel not long after this in his feud with The Rock. Pretty good match between the two here, maybe even forgotten since this is the show where Angle beat Austin for the title.

  1. Solid match, and probably stole the show from a quality perspective. But then, I always thought that Unforgiven 2001 was a really good show, outside of Brothers of Destruction vs. KroniK.

  7. Even though the Invasion angle sucked, and Raw was lagging the ppv's during this time period still churn out about 3-4 ***1/2+ matches per show.

  9. It wasn't entertaining in 1998, and even less so in 2001.

  10. I think I hated them more in 1998 than I did in 2001.

  11. It's just so Vince to think that two guys with pituitary issues who moved really slowly would be even better teamed up.
