YEAR IN REVIEW | The WWF in 2000 (Full Year Documentary) 

Thanks for watching, what should we cover in future videos? Also, make sure to drop a like to help get the video picked up by RU-vid’s algorithm 💪🏻👊🏻🤘🏻

It was a honor to grow up as a 9-10 year old kid during the year 2000. This felt like the wwf was life. Wouldn’t miss one show. I miss these days so much

The early 2000s and the late 90s was the hottest Wrestling EVER got the ratings were so high on a weekly basis I doubt itll EVER be the same or as high again! Sadly theyll never have another Stone Cold or Rock let alone others like Taker, Kane, Trips etc.... The Roster back then was so staked!!

December 1999 to January 2000 was when I started watching raw and SmackDown every single week. My friends were always into it and so I would watch a little bit for them but then I moved away from my friends to a new state and watching wrestling helped me feel connected to them... And quite frankly I was completely hooked with that storyline of triple h and the McMahon Helmsley era, and The Rock and Mick Foley fighting the power.. I stayed and kept watching every week for a few years after but I always looked back very fondly on this time.

In 2000 it was arguably the greatest year. The storylines was next level.

Kurt Angles accomplishments this year are ridiculous lol, this man won every major championship and KOTR all in one year

The Good Old Days of the WWF. Back when Wrestlemania 2000 for the N64 was sold out everywhere. 😂

2000 was fire for wwe

Man I couldn't imagine being a kid or teen watching the WWF in 2000 it was insane.

For me, 2000 is without a doubt the best year ever for wrestling and it really shows you how strong the company was that the absence of Stone Cold or Undertaker didn't hurt anything at all. The Rock was the most popular wrestler ever, Triple H was the biggest heel, Kane was on fire (no pun intended) Kurt Angle stepped up to become a big player. Lots of guys stepped up to make names for themselves and the tag team division was stacked. Undertaker returned as the American Badass to fit into the the 00s, Stone Cold came back more vicious than ever. Every ppv from start to finish was red hot, there's a good reason why 2000 is still looked at as the best year ever. Great video as always and keep up the good work

World Wrestling Federation, Pokemon, Playstation, Nintendo 64 and Gameboy Color as well as Kids WB and Cartoonnetwork summed up 2000 for me

I was at the RAW where Jericho won the title and where Linda came out to announce that Stone Cold would he at backlash. That was the loudest pop I ever heard at a wrestling event.

The year 2000 was WWF best year by far you had an excellent roster from top to bottom packed with so many future hall of famers.

The WWF Attitude Era In 2000 was When Wrestlers were kicking ass with Funny,Awesome Cool Storylines and cool promos! #WrestleWithAndy ⚡🌟💥🌟💥

Lita, Trish & the Radicalz were huge additions to the WWF in 2000. The Radicalz jump from WCW was a major factor in WWF winning the war.

Mannnn I wanna turn back time and relive my childhood 😫

Very proud to had grow up during this era. At the time it felt hard without Stone Cold until he finally returned from injury until September of 2000 at Unforgiven, it was still a awesome year for WWF. I say what was great about that year, the TLC matches, Benoit, Guerrero, Saturn and Malenko debut, Triple H vs Foley street fight and Hell in a cell match, The Rock vs Triple H Iron man Match, Undertaker Return, Lita defeated Stephanie McMahon for the Women's championship. Kurt Angle Rise and Stone Cold Steve Austin return.I am sure there are other moments but these my favorites. The year 2000 was by the far the greatest year in WWF.

I've never seen a guy as big of a phenomenon as The Rock was, lose so many matches. (Maybe Lex Luger?) Wrestlemania 16 should have been his "title win at Wrestlemania moment" that most babyface champions have. It shouldn't have been at Backlash.

And here we go... arguably the best year for WWF/WWE...so many memorable moments 🔥🔥... thanks for the amazing content man 👌🏻

YES!!! 2000 was a great year for the WWF!!! I have been waiting a month for this video! Thanks Andy!

I turned 7 during the summer of 2000...Me and my older bro had it all...N64,PS1,Dreamcast,Game boy Color,Toonami,Cartoon Network on Fridays,Slime Time,WWF,WCW,ECW,Blockbuster, NBA,NFL...The year 2000 could do no wrong

This is why No Mercy on N64 is always a fun game to come back to because of the year it was set in and it's stacked roster. 2000 really was peak attitude era as from 2001 it would slowly start declining into what it is today

I loved when Mick came back as commissioner! Better days were looking up 😅

1998 and 2000 are amongst the very best years in WWF history imo.

Reason why it's hard to go back and watch these raws. A nauseating amount of hhh and steph

Also Andy you do a fantastic job with summarizing the years. I really appreciate this effort and the time you took to make this for us. This was a most enjoyable time of my life.

If you noticed in the beginning of 2000 the roster was so stacked. But by the end of 2000, the roster was half gone.

I remember all of these storylines, thank you for the reminder and nostalgia!

2000-2002 were the best years in prp wrestling terms of star power and character work.

They really botched mania 16. Obviously due to backstage politics on hhh part. They made up for it with backlash but that should've been mania 16 imo

"The game is first to win the main event of the WrestleMania" Yokozuna: oh so I lost??

2000 had everything. The best roster they ever had, probably the best returns ever in Austin and undertaker, probably the best debut with jericho, great storyline and some incredible matches. Although 97 and 98 were great it was only because of austin and mcmahon, 2000 had the whole package

Man, it feels good reliving these memories. Thanks so much for making these videos!

I was 8 years old in 2000. WWF and wcw was my life lol. Royal rumble 2000 was shown on channel 4 for free, I stayed up to watch it as an 8 year old even tho I had school the next day. I still remember that day clearly. Life was sooo good ❤

duuuuude! ive been yearning for someone to just summarize feuds and timelines so i know where to jump into! THANK YOOOOUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!

The biggest negatives I'd say are the in-ring absences of Austin, Taker, & Foley. The Monday Night Wars was also a shell of its former self.

Thank GOD I been waiting for this!!! Good work Andy!

I watched WWF from 88-92 bowed out after that, started watching early 2000 again before bowing out again end of 2002… I think I caught the best times in the company’s history. Both periods were fantastic.

2000 will always have a special place in my heart, in fact I started watching on April 10, 2000 the night The Rock defeated both the Big Boss Man & Bull Buchanan in a Handicap Steel Cage Match.

Great video. This covers literally everything.

These yearly summaries are sooooo good I need 03-present as I fell out of interest but now my son is interested and I have no clue what I missed

Man this channel is the best channel in the field of wrestling documents ever 👍

Also the same year they release 2 of the most popular wrestling games of all time... WWF Smackdown 2 on Playstation and No Mercy on N64

The buildup to the Triple H Vs. Cactus Jack match at the Royal Rumble was the first major sign how great the year was going to be.

This series started with 1990 - The first Wrestlemania was in 1985, but to most the foundation of WWF was Wrestlemania 3 in 1987 - could you do 1987, 1988 & 1989

This series is awesome keep it up!

Ah, 2000! Here in the UK, I'd only seen a few WCW events on TV throughout 1998-99, but early in 2000 the first episode of Heat aired - and it immediately seemed a lot more like my cup of tea. When the second or third episode of Heat then showed that epic Mankind/Cactus Jack promo for the Royal Rumble, I was hooked!

The year 2000 in the World Wrestling Federation was a great and cool year for me after I made when I was ten years old. I love watching the WWF when I got home from school I watched SmackDown on Thursday nights on UPN and Raw Is War on Monday nights on the USA Network. I watched everything that the WWF Superstars are in them; the commercials, the Chef Boyardeee, the RC Royal Coda soda regular or diet, the Outback Steakhouse, TV shows ,movies, the WWF Shopzone, everything. Stone Cold Steve Austin The Rock Triple H The Undertaker Kane Kurt Angle Chris Jericho Mick Foley and Eddie Guerrero Edge and Christian The Hardy Boyz and The Dudley Boyz are the reason, the main reason I love watching pro wrestling including the WWF in late 1999 and 2000 that was very cool to watch and it brings back memories and nostalgia I remembered. And the World Wrestling Federation still beat WCW World Championship Wrestling in the TV ratings each and every week.

These have been amazing keep up the good work

I watched the entire Attitude Era over again back when it was on the Network and honestly the year 2000 wasn't as good as I remembered it. I wouldn't say it was at it's peak creatively either. The talent on the roster was at it's peak but the creative was definitely lacking. For starters, in 2000, they toned down the story and edginess in favor of matches. In 98 and 99 all the talent had their own individual storylines where in 2000 most of them had no real storyline to get behind. In 2000 the storylines focused mostly on the main event which left much of the mid card having to rely on the strength of their gimmicks to get or stay over(Godfather with his hoes, Dudley's with their tables, the Hardy Boyz Edge & Christian with their high flying stunts, Too Cool and Rikishi with their dancing). Those who didn't have a strong gimmicks got lost in the shuffle(Bob Holly, D Lo Brown, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn, Billy Gunn etc). Those whose gimmicks were too edgy(Val Venis, Godfather, Mr. Ass and most of Dx) also became casualties to the company having gone public and slowly getting rid of their offensive characters. The Mcmahon/Helmsley storyline in 2000 started off strong but much like with the higher power storyline got ruined by adding to much Mcmahons. Then there's the fact that a lot of the main talents were grossly misused. Jericho didn't have any real memorable storyline that year. Taker comes back with a new gimmick and the creative have no real clue what to do with him outside of just having him feud with the Rock for the belt. His next feud was with Angle but the feud was about Angle spilling milk on Taker's bike. They had no idea what to do with Kane, Big Show, X-pac and Road Dogg after the Mcmahon/Helmsley story. Even Rock's booking was suspect. I mean the Rock was the biggest talent in the company in 2000 yet you have him in a main event where the main storyline isn't about him but about a love triangle between HHH, Stephanie and Angle. The only guys who really had spectacular booking were HHH, Foley and Angle. That's not even mention how they botched up the Austin return storyline by making Rikishi the driver. So I definitely wouldn't say the creative was at it's peak in 2000.

Just subbed, great quality content, one of my favourite years in wwf history, can't wait to see more 💪

Thanks 😊 for the memory 😊👍, feeling nostalgia Good one 👌👌👌

As someone who started watching WWE in 2003 as a 6 year old, it seems from watching these videos that Triple H was never really the face of the company, but always like the top antagonist or something. Like he fared better as a heel than as a face. Really cannot remember a time the guy was presented as the hero at the end of a PPV lol, but he's still a legend in my eyes!

The year 2000 was a great time🕛 to be a wrestling fan. As the Attitude Era in WWE has set the wrestling world🤼🌎🌍🌏 on fire🔥 in that time🕛.

6 years old my first introduction to wrestling was this year, my dad loved it my mum loved it, it's so dam nostalgic thankyou for these videos bro

2000 the year the rock became the top guy in wwe and became one of the biggest and most popular stars in pop culture and also became the top 3 biggest draw in wrestling history along side hogan and Austin

1998,99 & 2000 were the WWE’s greatest peak years All of which were in the Attitude Era during the turn of the millennium

Love these, brings back great memories 🎉

Fun fact: 2000 is the year I was born

2000 I was 13 and discovered wrestling at a friend's house. I was OBSESSED and the world had never been hotter for it

This amazing to watch since I didn't start watching WWE until 2003

One of my favourite years of WWF. One thing I will say is Wrestlemania wasn't the best but pretty much every other PPV was great.

The year 2000 is my favorite WWE year and the Attitude Era ever ! 🥰

Yes!!!!! I attended backlash 2000 live arena the rock won the belt my favorite year of the rock in the business because he worked full time that year every raw and smack down and every ppv and stone cold return was the icing on the cake

You can't beat this era it was too big my favorite year of the attitude era was indeed 2000.

Mind blowing video , I just can't wait to see next year 2001 please make it as soon as possible you are wonderful sir

December 20th 1999 (Raw is War) was the first wrestling show I watched and man what a time to start watching!!!!

Slight correction Technically Yokozuna was the first heel to win Despite the b.s. ending with hogan He still did beat bret to win the title first

The way HHH wold that Cactus Jack reveal was amazing

perfect as always!!! Try to drag it out because I stopped watching wrestling religiously around 2006. That is the end of nostalgia for me.

Tell it right.. The Atttude era truly dies Spring into Summer 2002.. 2001 is still the Attitude era. It's not the Ruthless Aggression era yet and the Invasion storyline was an angle within the Attitude era.

19:09 of nostalgia 😍

Keep making more of these

Wooooo! It’s back! Love it!

Triple H is truly one tough S.O.B. man. The guy tore his quad against Chris Jericho, kept wrestling regardless, and took a brutal Walls of Jericho on the announce table.

I’ve been looking forward to this! Can’t wait for the rest of the 2000’s

That was the best year of the attitude era for me!

This is the year WWF 2 Smackdown came out so this roster is very familiar to me since I’ve played that game for hundreds of hours.

Ah 2000, where Triple H had a prototype of his reign of terror, permanently solidifying him as one of the best heels of his generation. With the Rock, Triple H, Taker, Kurt, and Austin all being legitimate main event contenders, 2001 had a lot of momentum going into it as any one of them could've been the torch bearer. Alas, 2001 had other plans for three of those five, and it marked the beginning of the end of of a legendary era.

2000 is my favorite year in WWF history

Pretty cool that Lita and Trish Stratus debuted around the same time.

Great video upload Andy cheers m8 great to watch very interesting to ok

This my favorite year. Great video

I’m literally keeping myself alive just to watch these.

2000 was the best year for WWE and Triple H was in his prime

Lita and Stephanie were not the first women's raw main event Actually, Alundra Blayze VS Bertha Faye main evented Raw on October 23, 1995.

I loved the part where it's blurred out, but you can sooo tell it's the Rock doing the People's elbow. XD

Flashback in the early 00's

In this year my sister was just born and I was recording wrestling on tape from TV 😂 best wrestling year

Can't wait for the 2001-2008 reviews.

I agree 2000 was the best year and i was just 6 going on 7 but i remember that 6 man hell in a cell like yesterday.. Lol 22 years ago DAMN.. long long ago lol

My all time favorite year of wwe. I went to a raw in June. Many just wild times. The one blemish obviously was Wrestlemania which is so weird considering how good the ppvs were that year

The WWF's best ever year!!

I’m so happy I grew up during all of this, I remember every one of these scenes 😢

This is the year I got into wrestling Sunday Night Heat March 19, 2000 Test vs Gangrel During the match Trish Stratus came out to watch. Test ends up winning with a Flying Drop off the top rope. Val Venis vs Viscera After a Money Shot, Val Venis got the win. Plays of the Week. Scotty II Hotty with Grandmaster Sexay vs Essa Rios with Lita A Top Rope Face Plant gives Scotty II Hotty the win. Joey Abs vs Prince Albert Prince Albert gets the win with his finishing move. A video of The Rock getting into the main event for WrestleMania 2000. The Big Boss Man vs Viscera During the match, some new person comes in to help the Boss Man. The match ends with a disqualification.

I love how slowly they built up taz just to bury him lol

I grew up as a kid during these times with my triplet brothers. We had direct tv on demand ppv 😅what a time it was!

Talk about nostalgia holy Jesus I was 18 years old on the 22nd of June 2000 feels like a lifetime ago

One of my favorite years as a WWE fan

The Royal Rumble that year was too classic
