10 Best WWE Pay-Per-Views: 2000 - 2002

#3 No Mercy 2002

Undertaker made Lesnar The Man

A truly fantastic show, this was another event from 2002 with not a single bad performance. This must-see show would feature two of WWE's best matches of the entire year.

Chris Jericho and Christian opened up the show defending their newly won WWE World Tag Team Championships against Booker T and Goldust. It was short at under 9 minutes, but they made the most of it giving a pretty entertaining match.

Torrie Wilson pinned Dawn Marie next. This was decent overall when you consider that neither of them were actually full-time wrestlers.

Rob Van Dam pinned Ric Flair in another short but entertaining match. This was followed by a fourth consecutive short but decent encounter when Jamie Noble retained the Cruiserweight Championship over Tajiri.

Up next, Triple H pinned Kane to retain the World Heavyweight Championship. This match was built around the worst storyline in wrestling history, also known as the Katie Vick saga, so thankfully we at least got a pretty good match out of what was previously such a shambles.

Trish Stratus retained the Women's Championship over Victoria in a fair match.

The WWE Championship main event was a memorable clash. Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker had the first of their two Hell in A Cell matches here, and it was an ultra-violent and excellent encounter.

The best match of the night came from the finals of the tournament to crown the inaugural WWE Tag Team Champions (Today's RAW Tag Team Championships). Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit defeated Edge and Rey Mysterio in a truly outstanding match. Possibly the best standard rule tag team match in wrestling history.
