[8.0] "Whole show revolves around the Rock returning, which would have been a fucking disaster if it didn't happen, since they've been teasing and promoting it the past two shows... So it wasn't a matter of IF but "when". And they played it pretty well with all of the different skits on this show acting as if the Rock was going to be everyone's savior, which, really, he sorta was. As for the wrestling, the RVD Tajiri match was the best match. WCW title match was like a condensed version of the one on last week's smackdown. Not as good, not as long, and without the same kind of purpose or excitement. DDP pulling the Dudley's into his stalking of Sara by delivering her to Bubba Ray for a table bump was interesting. Not sure how I feel about that. Maybe WWF is realizing that DDP vs Undertaker is either not going to be worth it, so they need to bring others in to help? or maybe this is their way of building it up more? Not sure where they're going with this but we'll see. No strong feelings either way. XPac winning both of the little guy titles seems like the start of them condensing all of the titles, which is a good thing. And poor xpac needed to win this with all the hate he's getting. They had a Die Xpac Die sign in the crowd this episode lol. Back to the Rock returning... it's definitely worth watching the episode at least to skip through all of the skits and then for the final promo. It isn't anything mind blowing, but if you've been doing a re-watch of WWF chronologically like I have, it's worth watching that final segment just to understand how fucking crazy his return was at that point and really how much it was needed. Love that he didn't pick a side, giving me hope that this invasion shit will be over with soon."

The rest of the show doesn't even matter but the RVD/Tajiri match is good for it's length, and Booker T/Kurt had a worse version of their SD match but it was still good. Rock's return segment was simply great, as usual he controlled the crowd to perfection."

[8.0] "Rob Van Dam vs Tajiri - Amazing Sub-5 minute match. Stunning moves and sequences, the transitions were smooth as hell, great pacing... I just wish I could put it on the recommended match guide because it's worth your attention, super entertaining midcard match"
