youtube.com/watch?v=ltzHvox9e5oThis could've been a fantastic ppv match ... instead it ended up as a Heat 5 minute waste of opportunity. The biggest dose of salt in the wound was the commentary ... hardly even spoke about either wrestler IN THE RING, and hyped X-Pac. As a huge Mr Perfect fan, this match did make me really depressed. A wrestler that should've been world champion reduced to this. And I have nothing against RVD, I just feel that this match could've been done a million times better. SMURF!! sorry wrong link ... should work now.

It bothered me too. I was pissed when Goldust got the PPV fued at No Way Out against Van Dam instead of Hennig. Could have been great.

i hate when matches like that happen. like when the rock faced flair in a throwaway match on raw. that would've been an awesome "dream match" scenario, and for me it would have topped rock/hulk, but instead it was reduced to a free TV match used to hype the next ppv.

Thats a real shame, I think they worked together well and could've actually had a great match if given the opportunity.

Hennig didn't have many long matches upon his return, as a matter of fact apart from the RR 02 performance he had, he didn't wrestle on PPV.

Imagine how great this match if they were both in their time, with a PPV style time limit.

Hennig's return was seriously botched after the 2002 Rumble. If I remember right, he jobbed to Austin the night after the Rumble on Raw in a short main event match. He could have been a solid upper-mid card guy who could obviously still work. It's too bad his return and life was cut short.
