This week's clip is from the TLC match (tables, ladders, and chairs) at Summerslam 2000. The point of the match is for one of the participants to climb the ladder and grab the Tag Team title belts for himself and his partner. The tables and chairs come into play because it's entertaining for wrestling fans to see someone get slammed through a table or hit with a chair (or at least it is when it's done right...some wrestlers don't do it very well).
Why it's one of my faves:
Summerslam 2000 was the first Pay-Per-View event I ever got to watch, so there's no doubt that I would include a match from that show. The match is loaded with high-flying moves, and plenty of examples of wrestling's wonderful use of tables, ladders, and chairs. I'm a sucker for matches that involve what wrestling fans generally call "Holy Sh!t" moments, and this match definitely has some of those. The good news is that I'm not the only one who enjoys this kind of match--just listen to the crowd reaction in the arena!
Note: This is only a small portion of the match (Part 2). If you are interested in seeing what else happens you can view the rest of the match at the following links:
