WWF vs. The Alliance (2001)
The “Invasion” Angle is maligned by most fans as being one of the biggest flops in wrestling history. But I liked it. I think invasion angles are the best of the rarely-used big-time wrestling stunts. What made this event so special was that WWF had positioned themselves as the losers when they had won the Monday Night Wars. As the underdogs, the WWF team fought back, and The Rock (shockingly) became the sole survivor. There ended the angle. Kind of a letdown, yeah?
From one forgettable moment to one the next year that showed the strength of one of the most feared competitors in WWF history.
