10 Reasons No Way Out 2001 Is WWE's Greatest February PPV Ever
2. A Loaded Roster
The wealth of talent that populated the No Way Out card is simply phenomenal. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Trish Stratus, Eddie Guerrero, Jerry "The King" Lawler and Edge are already enshrined in the WWE Hall of Fame. Big Show, The Rock, Kurt Angle, Triple H, Undertaker, Kane and Chris Jericho are all guaranteed to join them someday in the near future. Factor in guys like X-Pac, The Dudley Boyz, Christian and Raven who all should take their places among the immortals as well and you have one of the greatest rosters in wrestling history. It is a testament to the writers, management and the stars themselves that the Attitude Era roster was loaded with so many bona fide stars, all of whom had characters that were immediately recognizable and easy to relate to. When else can you watch that many extraordinary performers, most in their primes, deliver the quality of matches they do on this show? Answer? Nowhere. That is, except for the following month's WrestleMania.
Erik Beaston is a freelance pro wrestling writer who likes long walks in the park, dandelions and has not quite figured out that this introduction is not for Match.com. He resides in Parts Unknown, where he hosts weekly cookouts with Kane, The Ultimate Warrior, Papa Shango and The Boogeyman. Be jealous.
