The History of the WWF Volume XV: 2000: From 1985 to the Present

Imagine going back in time and reliving WWF history as it actually happened. Not as the WWE wants to present it, but as it actually aired. No longer would superstars disappear from the history books or angles be edited out because they’re deemed too offensive to WWE’s current corporate philosophy. Instead, you’d see the WWF as it aired, as you remembered it if you’re old enough, or as it really happened for the first time if you’re a younger fan. You’d see the WWF that turned a regional promotion into a global billion dollar powerhouse. You’d see the WWF that the fans who grew up on the product came to know and love.Welcome to a year-by-year account of the WWF. This is the history of the WWF as presented on television. Not Vince McMahon’s revisionist history, but the WWF that aired on television. This series follows the weekly shows, PPVs, and major events that made the WWF (and later WWE) the household name that it is. Love it or hate it, the WWF has become part of the world’s culture and the events in this book helped define that culture.For 2000, see the dominant McMahon-Helmsley Faction, the McMahon family drama, and The Rock becoming an icon in the industry. Witness young stars like Edge & Christian, Chris Jericho, The Hardy Boyz, and Kurt Angle find their footing in the WWF. Watch as The Radicalz jump ship from WCW, one of the final blows in the Monday Night War. Also, see one of the greatest love triangles in professional wrestling, the mystery of who ran over "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Mick Foley's in-ring retirement and time as a commissioner, as well as many more iconic moments. 2000 is considered one of the greatest years in WWF history and must see viewing for any wrestling fan!
