it is the greatest carryjob in a prolific mainevemt match ever.
where Benoit, the soon to no longer mentioned by name at all killer.
has to carry those two outdated workrate phonies.
the only reason it is given precedence over any standard ecw triple threat is because it occurred in a WWE ring.
plus, at the time the best review guy ever. Was also predicated to give it a very high ranking.
all because his two long time favorites were featured in a match.
where the guy he at one point termed was gawd.
had fallen completely off and needed this match to pad his importance legacy wise.
to spin his glorious fraudulent tale of bullshyt opulence as a performer.
plus, workrate wise the match was still neutered because Benoit had to dial back and then make good.
the phony wanna be shoot smash me workrate of cripple h and carry that outdated by twenty years high flyer michaels.
that has been overprocessed.
all because WWE never had any real workrate in the main event as an exact global science till flair arrived.
by that time jushin liger and pillman, and others.
were already light years ahead of anything the green michaels is given sole credit for erroneously, workrate wise.
in other words, the triple threat is an old stampede eighties template triple threat.
that occurred thirty years later in a resistance to change WWE.
you could have gotten a triple threat from any RF video.
almost a decade predating this match and seen the same style of match occur with Benoit only adding to updating the actual quality and content to keep it from being viewed as what it really is if Benoit was not present to aid his ring generalship and carry those two bums via workrate, in ache and michaels.
around this time, sabin/daniels/styles...
had already upgraded triple threat encounter along the five star scale.
that if, Benoit was not the principal in that match.
it would have been lesser in quality and exposed.
if, Benoit was not in the WWE at the time to temper its talent and outclass its workers. Working as the quality litmus test. wwe would have been even more exposed as a promotion, workrate wise.
