Trivia:

This event marked the first time the WCW World Heavyweight (referred to at the time only as the "World Title") and WWF championships were officially unified. Although it was called the "Undisputed championship," this name was dubious because there were several other international wrestling organizations at the time with world champions (such as the National Wrestling Alliance, New Japan and All-Japan).

A misleading but good PPV.

I remember seeing this back last December, and it was a pretty good PPV with an unexpected ending. When it first aired, they had commercials with Triple H in them (sort of hinting of him maybe being on the card) but he didn't come back until about a month later.)Anyways, the event was a little better than Survivor Series was, and had a sort of surprising ending. Many thought most likely that either Austin or Rock would win the title, but outside interference during both matches gave Jericho the win. Overall Vengeance was a decent PPV to end 2001, if you have not seen it yet, then it's out now for rent on DVD at many Blockbuster stores WWF fans will like it.
