WWE 2004 PPVs From Worst To Best

8. No Mercy

The Good: It's not often two midcard cruiserweights, who are rarely afforded airtime, steal the show on a WWE PPV. That's exactly what Billy Kidman and Paul London did here, having an utterly compelling match that was supported by a strong, believable storyline. Shame it went absolutely nowhere after this, mind. Rey Mysterio/RVD and Dupree/Suzuki had a decent match. These two teams had good chemistry, strangely enough. Kurt Angle and the newly-bald Big Show had a great match, too, Show's best for some time. The Rico/Haas/Jacki versus Dudleys/Dawn Marie six-man was good popcorn fun. The Bad: The JBL/Undertaker Last Ride main event was a slow, plodding and boring brawl with a weak finish. John Cena versus Booker T was like all of their matches together: average. Spike Dudley versus Nunzio was just a match. It was a shame to see Eddie Guerrero jerking the curtain against the cumbersome Luther Reigns. Just a few months prior, he was on top of the world as WWE Champion. The Rest: It's interesting that WWE used Jamie Noble's voice-over for the London/Kidman video package, since he had been fired just a few weeks prior (when WWE were informed by Noble's doctor that the wrestler was using steroids).
