With This Ring #67: Backlash 2000   Ryan and Cindy start the next WWF season much the same way we finished the old one, with the Rock feuding with Triple H and the McMahons. In this edition we go to Backlash, which had 5 singles matches, none of which were Terri vs. The Kat, putting it a tick above WrestleMania from the get go. Among the topics discussed: The start of the Vince Russo/Eric Bischoff tenure in WCW, and how that led to Mike Awesome, WCW wrestler, defending the ECW title against Tazz, WWF wrestler and how that was displayed on WWF TV. Chris Jericho's brief earliest WWF title run.  The promise of Stone Cold Steve Austin.  The chemistry between Eddie Guerrero and his Mamacita.  We again talk about how misplaced X-Pac and Road Dogg are in the tag division.  Dean Malenko and Scotty Too Hotty having a notable Light Heavyweight Title match. SHOWESTER MANIA RUNNING WILD BROTHER! The Rock and Triple H having their usual Sports Enterainment Spectacular in a match that seemed more WrestleMania main event than the WrestleMania main event.    All this and much more. Enjoy!
