[2002-03-17-WWF-Wrestlemania X8] Steve Austin vs Scott Hall

[cactus]

It's sad to think that this could of easily main evented any PPV two years ago and now it's just filler before the Rock vs Hogan dream match. Despite both men's physical limitations, they still know how to throw a good punch and they keep the action simple. Nash keeps getting involved and nearly costs Austin the win. Austin is able to fight them both off and deliver a Stunner to Scott Hall that was so over-the-top that it's now become a meme. A perfectly fine match, even though it's depressing to think that two of the biggest players of the 90's are starting to show the wear and tear from their long careers. 
★★½

Austin's on the verge of taking his ball and going home, and it's reflected in the effort he puts into his matches. Hall is past his prime and isn't really good for anything besides antagonizing the locker-room, apparently. There's no chance this was ever going to be good.
