Rob Van Dam's surge continued after beating Jeff Hardy at Summerslam, topping that performance with an even better bout against Chris Jericho the following month. Numerous aspects of the match were fantastic, from the split (but incredibly enthusiastic) crowd reaction to the escalation of big move after big move. The ending of this one was electric, with Y2J showing his growing heelish tendencies as Stephanie McMahon attempted to interfere, swinging at her viciously with a big chairshot (which she ducked) and turning into a well-timed Van Daminator for the three count. This match - along with RVD's previous effort against Jeff Hardy - were for the Hardcore Championship by the way. Easily the best hardcore matches ever? http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x100mq_jericho-vs-rvd-unforgiven-2001_sport
