6. Championship Street Fight Match: Triple H defeats Cactus Jack
Triple H won a VERY hardcore match. Both men were repeatedly hit with a 2x4 with barbed wire wrapped around it. Triple H was split open early, and bled a great deal. Later on, Cactus was handcuffed and lying on the entry ramp. Triple H was about to hit him on the head with a chair when the Rock hit Triple H. Cactus was then released by a police officer. After pile-driving Triple H through the announcer's table, Cactus brought a bag of tacks into the ring. Cactus was back-body dropped onto the tacks and then kicked out of the Pedigree. Triple H then pedigreed Cactus Jack on the tacks for the win.

the floor after he stunned the big man with a kick. The Big Show then
got a hold of X-pac, pressed him over his head, and dropped him onto
the floor. The Rock and the Big Show faced off in the center of the
ring with the Rock eventually hitting the Show with the 'Peoples'
Elbow'. The Big Show managed to get an upper hand and had the Rock
over his shoulder. The Big Show ran towards the ropes to drop Rock
but propelled himself over the top. The Rock held on to the top rope,
thus becoming the winner of the 2000 Royal Rumble.
