WrestleZone Top Ten: Chris Jericho Moments

Number 6: Tables, Ladders, and Chairs

After winning the WWE Tag Team Championships from Austin and Triple H on Raw, May 24, 2001 Smackdown features a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match. This was so unheard of, a speciality match on a Smackdown. Benoit and Jericho, two of the best in ring performers ever, would be a team who needed to fend off the anger from Vince McMahon. They would be faced off against The Hardy Boys, The Dudley Boys, and Edge and Christian. The only tag team without prior experience in this match, the entire match was an instant classic. Whether you loved the Walls of Jericho on the top of the ladder, or Jericho’s moonsault, or even Benoit’s headbutt from the ladder, you got all you bargained for. 20 minutes worth of entertainment, the Arrowhead Pond was in awe of this match. Jericho and Benoit would be one of the most interesting, yet dynamic tag teams. This would begin the surge of pairing two singles stars together for tag teams. An A plus match thanks to all of the teams, especially the champs.
