1999 was a very successful year for the WWF as it was the best they ever done financially leading up to this point. This was the last pay-per-view before the millennium.
The WWF was comfortable at this point being up on then rival WCW. WWF had a story for every character at this point. It was very interesting to watch all shows throughout as everyone on a card bottom to top always put on a show.
It seemed like at this point in time that everyone was a wrestling fan and it was no shame to admit it. You could either watch WWF or WCW. WWF ended up prevailing in The Monday Night Wars by buying WCW from Ted Turner.
It was definitely fun going from USA to TNT on Monday nights watching WWF Monday Night Raw and WCW Monday Nitro. WCW came out with Wednesday Night Thunder in 1998, but WWF came out with Thursday Night Smackdown in 1999.
WWF came out with Sunday Night Heat in 1998. This was just a great time to be a wrestling fan. In December of 1999 at this point Stone Cold Steve Austin was out of the picture having surgery and rehabbing his neck. The Big Show was The WWF Champion. Mr. McMahon was in the main event against future son-in-law Triple H.
The Rock had formed The Rock N' Sock connection with Mankind. People has reviewed this pay-per-view as very bad, but it was still in the Attitude era where everything was enjoyable to watch. This pay-per-view is available on The WWE Network.
