Remembered as the stupendous creative zenith and death of the Attitude Era, we prefer to remember the show, arguably the best wrestling pay-per-view ever, for the former quality.

We won’t focus on the hand shake, blistering as the match was that preceded it, but rather offer our hands to the iconic Super Spear delivered by Edge in the brain-scrambling TLC bout.
