Glad to finally see some attention played to this angle--McMichael winning the U.S. title was a little much, but Jarrett as the Horsemen Wannabe was a little mid-card angle that was way more fun than it had any right to be. HUGE crowd reactions for everything--watch this and try to dismiss Benoit as a Vanilla Midget. He and Mongo are both over like crazy here, and while Birmingham is a classic southern wrasslin' town it's not exactly Prime Horsemen Country either. Well-laid-out match, too--McMichael comes in and they immediately take his leg out, meaning Mongo can simply lay on the mat and yell while Jarrett and Eddie do literally all the work as they try to take out Mongo's knee. It also provides a cover for any blown spots by Mongo to come. Clusterfuck finish that ends with McMichael popping Jarrett with the U.S. belt to give Benoit a win.
