10 Best WWE WrestleMania Midcard Title Matches
8. Kurt Angle Vs Chris Jericho Vs Chris Benoit (WrestleMania 2000)
WrestleMania 2000 has been criticized over the years for its over-reliance on multi-man matches and lack of storytelling. One match has always stood out in stark contrast to that criticism.
The Triple Threat match pitting Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit and Kurt Angle against each other, with Angle’s Intercontinental and European Championships on the line, is quite simply a riot to watch.
Despite Chris Jericho claiming that he was initially disappointed with the match, you cannot overlook the quality on show. Due to Benoit’s prominence in the contest, it’s unfortunately forever doomed to be overlooked and left in the dusty confines of the WWE memory banks.
If you can quell that uncomfortable feeling that re-watching a Benoit match can generate, you will be treated to a fast-paced melding of styles that ultimately helped each man progress in the company.
The rare Two Fall Two Title Triple-Threat format gave fans something unique whilst cementing the early 2000s midcard as the place for talented workers to deliver a style that rivalled that of the main event scene.
