There weren't any big surprises, but an excellent main event with Kurt Angle vs. Undertaker paced a strong No Way Out show on 2/19 at the First Mariner Arena in Baltimore before a sellout of 11,000 fans.

The WWE's final PPV show before Wrestlemania meant the results were either going to be predictable, or kind of stupid, when it came to the major matches. As is becoming the pattern for WWE PPV shows, the undercard wasn't much. In some ways, fans are now more than ever into "stars" as opposed to "matches," and thus undercard matches unless there is a really charismatic performer, or they put a main event match on early, aren't going to get much response. Even though it was a full house and WWE has more business momentum now than at any time in a good four plus years, the crowd was cold for most of the show. But you got three good matches.
