Full Match:

Just think about this: All these guys except for Shelton Benjamin ended up being multi-time World/WWE Champions. You can't say the WWE didn't try with Shelton. They tried multiple times to put him over by giving him different kinds of gimmicks. He had too many chances.

Also, keep this in mind. When this match happened.

. Jericho was just a one time champion. I guess if you depend to count the WCW title. I think the WWE does.
. Benoit was a former champ the year before.
. Edge would win the World title a year later.
. Christian would win his first World title 6 years later.
. Kane would win his 2nd title 5 years later
. Shelton would be released years later.


This match started a trend for years to come. If it wouldn't have been insane, there wouldn't have been another. In an era where there was already a standard set for ladder matches, this match STILL found a way to be creative and innovative to this day.

Cool little moment as Kane burns all the ladders on the entrance ramp. Benjamin was the star of the show. He's clearly very underrated but lacks purity in his charisma. He is INSANE in this match. He's had other MITB moments but none were as jaw dropping as his performance here. Jericho/Benoit had some cool spots too. Edge & Christian & Kane. T-Bone spot off the ladder. Shelton's running ladder spot. The psychology with Benoit's arm. This match told a great story. Everyone did spectacular. Sadly with every good moment, the WWE overkills it and makes it bleed until it can't no more.
