HHH is not happy being partners with Jericho. HHH sees the silver lining of the tag match as him getting a piece of Benoit. Steph uses this to present herself as an asset at ringside. HHH says he is happy that Steph decided to not be Angle’s manager. That seems like it is news to Steph. X-Pac pats HHH on the shoulder before he enters the ring. Jericho and HHH are bickering with each other. The match starts out tornado style with all four fighting it out. This was a neat match as HHH and Jericho really don’t co exist at all in partners. Finish also worked as HHH was going to win but HHH inadvertently gets crotched on the rope and Benoit picks up the big pin. HHH is pissed at Steph backstage and she reminds him that hes been losing a lot since he asked her to stay in the back. **3/4

Rock solid TV match advancing some stories.  The way they handled the dissenting partners and friendship of X-Pac/HHH was actually really smooth and not painfully overdone.  Jericho looked good as a fiery babyface here, having a lot of energy in his comebacks and being pretty on through the whole match as he was kind of the workhorse here.  The Benoit german suplex on Triple H was really a killer nearfall that had the crowd fooled.  Actual finish was considerably more underwhelming but they continue to put Benoit over strong on the way to No Mercy.

 

**1/2
