In 1999, the American professional wrestling promotionWorld Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) ran two pay-per-views (PPV) in, and broadcast exclusively for, the United Kingdom. The first was No Mercy, which was held in May, and the second was Rebellion in October; the No Mercy name was later used for another PPV held in the United States that same month, which became a mainstay on WWF's PPV calendar. In early 2000, the promotion announced that May's United Kingdom-exclusive event would be titled Insurrextion. It was scheduled to be held on May 6, 2000, at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London, England.[2]
A second Insurrextion event was held the following year, also in the United Kingdom, thus establishing Insurrextion as an annual UK-exclusive PPV for the promotion.[4][5] The event was discontinued after its 2003 event as the promotion started to broadcast Raw and SmackDown! from the UK in 2004.[6]
Crash Holly would win back the Hardcore Championship three days later on the next episode of Raw when WWE returned to the United States.
Receptionedit
In 2008, J.D. Dunn of 411Mania gave the event a rating of 7.5 [Good], stating, "Normally a nothing PPV, this rivals the US PPVs in terms of quality. Sadly, the Benoit/Angle match was kept short due to Benoit's eye injury. Most of the stuff here was either good wrestling or had some sort of fun element involved. Thumbs up."[7]
