Redo: Wrestlemania 2000

For Wrestlemania this year we are going to be doing something a little different this year where we look back at Wrestlemania's of the past that if given the chance I would change. It's time to show how I would redo Wrestlemania 2000 and if you'd like to see my first redo from earlier this month click here. Check out the actual card from Wrestlemania 2000: 

WWF Wrestlemania 2000

15 Minute Hardcore Battle Royal (13 Man) WWF Hardcore Title
Albert & Test Def. (Pin) Al Snow & Steve Blackman

Chyna & Grandmaster Sexay & Scotty 2 Hotty Def. (Pin) Dean Malenko & Eddie Guerrero & Perry Saturn 6-Person Tag
Chris Benoit Def. (Pin) Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle (C) Triple-Threat WWF Intercontinental Title

Triple H (C) Def. (Pin) Mick Foley, The Big Show, The Rock Fatal 4-Way Elimination WWF World Heavyweight Title

The first thing I would eliminate is the random tag team matches that are really just filler on the show and serve no real purpose. One thing that I've learned is that if something is one a PPV it should be special and not some run of the mill match that could be seen on regular programming. The running joke with Wrestlemania 2000 is that WWE really tried to get everyone on the event instead of making the card the best it possibly could be. The other match I would take off the card is the "Catfight" between Terri & The Kat even though there "match" was the only one on one contest on the show. 

The opening match of the show would be a 14 man tag team Battle Royal winning team will challenge the Tag Team Champions in a month at Backlash to give time for something develop. I tried to pull someone out of the Hardcore Battle Royal to give them a bit more of a spotlight, but all I really did was move the APA from one Battle Royal to another. Other than that there really isn't much to change, because if you eliminate the matches that don't matter and serve no purpose and replace them with matches that actually have some stakes then it improves the quality of the show, because it makes fans less likely to tune out of the event.
