#7 No Mercy 2006
No Mercy 2006 is a WWE Pay-Per-View that you never really here being mentioned by anyone these days and it is a shame, because it was a solid card with some excellent performances, from the matches at least.
Other than an awkward segment with Teddy Long, The Miz, Layla and Big Dick Johnson, everything else was mostly great.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
Hometown boys Matt Hardy and Gregory Helms opened the show. The two had a pretty solid opener, which Matt won after a Twist of Faith. WWE Tag Team Champions Paul London and Brian Kendrick retained their titles over KC James and Idol Stevens in a surprisingly good match, when you consider how inexperienced James and Stevens were.
Idol Stevens found better success later as Damian Sandow. Up next, in his TV debut, MVP squashed a jobber. It was a waste of time.
In his biggest challenge to date, up and comer Mr. Kennedy faced off with The Undertaker. It was a pretty competitive match; Taker allowed Kennedy to look like a real challenge. The only bad thing here was the ending, which was Taker getting himself disqualified after hitting Kennedy with his US. title belt.
Next was a Falls Count Anywhere match with Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guererro. Considering the feud was uncomfortable, this needed to be a good match and thankfully it was pretty entertaining. Rey took the win with a cross body in the crowd stands.
The main event was a Fatal Four Way for the World Championship, with King Booker defending with Finlay, Bobby Lashley and Batista. This was an action-packed thriller, although it did lack some selling, it was still highly entertaining. The match of the night came from an unadvertised one.
William Regal was ordered to go to the ring for a match with a surprise opponent, which was Chris Benoit, who hadn't been seen in about 6 months. The two had a technical scorcher; this was a hard-hitting war and the best possible match you can get out of, not even 12 minutes.
