10 Things You Didn't Know About WWE No Way Out 2000

6. Why Tazz Worked With Big Boss Man

The Radicalz weren't alone when it came to fighting politics in their new home.

Tazz, who had debuted by beating Kurt Angle at Royal Rumble, was demoted to working a short DQ win over Big Boss Man at No Way Out. That wasn't an accident, and it wasn't a decision taken just to get the ex-ECW man on the card either. He was deliberately relegated to a nothing feud.

Some talents had started to complain that his work looked dangerous (something that would surely, and probably rightly, have angered Tazz). Worse, Bruce Prichard told on his 'Something To Wrestle With' show that Vince McMahon himself hadn't been keen on some of his release-style suplexes at the Rumble.

The WWF didn't really know what to do with their new property, so they stuck him in a meaningless match-come-angle with Boss Man and Prince Albert. This was a rather dramatic fall from grace for someone who had legit popped MSG a mere month earlier.
