- The HITMAN383 Rant for WWF WrestleMania IV. I’ve had this
one requested a number of times, but would YOU be in a rush to watch it? Either
way, here it comes.
- Oh, and to do my part in the deal with Scott Keith’s
publisher, here’s my review for “The Buzz on Wrestling.” I got the press
release copy, and it is definitely a good book. I feel Scott missed some
opportunities to go into further detail about some events, but it’s still a
solid read. *** ¾. (Okay, so that means this was
written in 2001)
- An even better book is “WrestleMania, the Insider’s
Story.” Check that one out, it’s pretty cool. **** ¼.
- Anyway, on with today’s show.
- BTW, I use this system: ***** - Excellent, **** - Great,
*** - Good, **- Okay, * - Decent, DUD - Awful.
- Live from Atlantic City, New Jersey at Trump
Plaza. Just like the next
year at WM V. I never liked that building. Remember the staircase I described
in the WM V rant? It’s here too. (Forget the crowd, the entire puke-yellow
design of that building was fucking depressing)
- Your Hosts are Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Ventura.
- The story here is that Hogan’s WWF title was vacated after
Andre beat him for it (in the famous “double referees” bit) and a tourney would
be held at this WrestleMania to crown a new champ. The problem is you have a
HUGE 14 man tourney, in addition to five other matches. Can you say bloated?
- Opening 20-man Battle Royal Match: This has Sam
Houston, Ken Patera, The Killer Bee’s, The Rougeau’s, Hillbilly Jim, Junk Yard
Dog, Bad News Brown, Danny Davis, George Steele, Harley Race, The Hart
Foundation, Sika, Ron Bass, The Young Stallions, Nikolai Volkoff, and Boris
Zhukov. Quite a field, eh? (Ah, for the days before Wikipedia or History
of the WWE when I actually had to sit through the entrances to figure out who was
in these things) As this thing starts, George Steele refuses to get in,
and just walks around outside. Typical battle royal fare. You know, punch,
kick, punch. Houston
and Sika both get tossed quickly, and Brunzell teases a couple of eliminations.
Steele (still on the floor) costs Neidhart elimination, and Brunzell finally
gets tossed. Ray Rougeau and Brian Blair toss eachother, and JYD gets rid of
Bass. Steele’s STILL on the floor. Why? The Russian’s dump Hillbilly, and this
is really a draggy little match. Davis out, and Jim Powers follows. Race and
JYD trade headbutts, as Patera tosses the Russians, but Bad News sneaks up and
dumps Ken too! Race out via JYD, and the final four are Bad News, Bret, JYD and
Roma. Guess who goes first? If you said Roma, you’re right, as Bad News quickly
dumps him. (Haha, no one likes Paul Roma) Bret and Bad News team up on
JYD, but it backfires as the Dog uses his head. Literally. It proves to be too
much for him, however, as the heels beat the shit out of the Dog and toss him.
They decide to split the winnings instead of fighting, but Bad News quickly
double crosses him with the Ghetto Blaster. I can see the interviews now: “I
didn’t screw Bret. Bret screwed Bret!” (That wasn’t as dated in early 2001, at
least) News quickly tosses him after that to win at 9:43. Pretty
boring, ½*. This would be the beginnings of Bret’s face turn.
- Robin Leach, of “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous,” comes
out to read the proclamation to officially open the tournament. He also doesn’t
seem very happy to be there. (If there’s one thing I hate about celebrity
involvement, it’s celebrities who seem to think they’re ‘too good’ to be there.
And maybe they DO feel that way, fine, but don’t let it come across on camera,
at least. For every great celeb like Pete Rose or Donald Trump or Mike Tyson
you’ve got ten Robin Leach’s or Pamela Anderson’s or Burt Reynolds’ )
- WWF Title Tournament, Round One: Ted DiBiase vs. Jim
Duggan: Ted has Virgil and Andre with him here for “insurance.” Hacksaw
walks around like a doof as DiBiase tries to make a wrestling match out of it.
Lousy Duggan. The hick hits an atomic drop to put Teddy on the floor, but Ted
chops away on him to comeback. Hacksaw catches him with a clothesline, and does
the ten-punch count, but eats foot off a corner charge. He hits a 2nd rope ax
handle, and then a fist drop for two. A slugfest develops, and Duggan actually
busts out a sunset flip for two. Ted gets another first drop in, but Duggan
suplexes him in return. Ted takes his somersault bump off an axe handle attempt,
and Jim slams him down. He calls for the 3-point stance clothesline, but Andre
stops it, decks him, and allows Ted an easy pin at 5:00 to advance. Okay match,
with no rest holds! **. (And there’s my first crazy liberal rating
for the night.)
- WWF Title Tournament, Round One: Dino Bravo vs. Don
Muraco: Muraco had fellow steroid pumper Billy Graham with him, who was
already using a cane due to the effect the drug had on him. I wonder how Don is
holding up today? (Pretty well compared to a lot of other 80s stars, actually)
They do some crappy wrestling to start off, and The Rock slams him. He tries a
Vader bomb, but BADLY messes up, and misses. Bravo drops some elbows to
retaliate, and hits a gutwrench suplex. Dino hurts his knee off a missed corner
charge, and Muraco works on it. Bravo kicks him off, and Don gets caught in
between the 2nd and top rope (like Foley), and Dino easily piledrives him after
that (but only for two). He tries another piledriver, but gets backdropped, and
they do a double clothesline spot. The Rock hits a flying forearm, and tries
another, but Bravo shoves the ref. in between and he goes down. Bravo hits a
sidewalk slam, and covers, but the ref. DQ’s him at 4:59. The time constraints
are a good thing here, keeping rest holds WAY down for 80’s WWF, but these two
suck either way. DUD.
- WWF Title Tournament, Round One: Greg Valentine vs.
Ricky Steamboat: The Dragon brings his son to the ring with him here, as he
does many times. I think Ricky is a really great dad, in real life. You can see
it in his eyes when he holds the kid. They do a bunch of false lock ups to
start, and a big criss cross leads to a Steamboat hip toss, and an arm drag. He
goes into the arm bar, and then hits a falling headbutt for two. Shoulderblock
for two, and another one for two. He tries a third, but gets tossed, then skins
the cat back in! He rolls him up for two, and goes back to the arm bar.
Valentine catches him with a knee, as the announcers say that Barry Blaustein
predicts Steamboat will win the title tonight. Barry, for those that don’t
know, made that wrestling documentary “Beyond The Mat” a while back. I didn’t know
he had anything to do with the WWF in 1988 though. (I think he was just Jesse’s
friend) Greg works in some chops, and drops an elbow for two. Steamboat
flips out of a side suplex, and rams Valentine to the turnbuckle, then goes
back into the arm bar. The Hammer fights out of it with an atomic drop, and
hits some solid elbows to the head of the Dragon. They have a chop fest (won by
Steamboat), and Greg hits a bodypress for two. Gutbuster follows, and he drops
a head down low. He goes for the figure four, but Ricky kicks him off, and
chops him down! That gets him two, and the Hammer hits a shoulderbreaker for
two. He goes up top, and connects with a double ax, then tries the figure four
again. The Steamer fights out of it again, and rams Greg’s head to the mat a
couple times. Flying back elbow, and Ricky goes to the top for a big chop.
Tatanka WISHES he could hit them like that! (I dunno, I think by 2001 Tatanka
just wished he had a job) It gets two, and he rams the Hammer into the
buckle until the ref. stops him. He hits the top rope flying bodypress, but
Greg rolls through for the pin at 9:09. Eh. Decent, but kind boring. ** ¼.
Steamboat was NWA bound, at this point.
- WWF Title Tournament, Round One: Randy Savage vs. Butch
Reed: You mean, the WWF REALLY thought that they could make millions by
marketing a black guy with blond hair? Ouy Vey. Liz looks great here, BTW. Reed
kicks his ass to start, and suplexes him to the mat for two. He punches Macho a
little, and then snaps his neck on the top rope. This is such a crappy match.
Butch “hits” a 2nd rope fist drop, and struts. The “hits” has parenthesis
because it didn’t come 6 inches from Savage’s head. He goes up top, but gets
caught, and Savage slams him off. He hits the big elbow drop (to a MASSIVE pop
for the elbow) to get the win at 4:02. Total crap. DUD. What I don’t understand
is why they didn’t have Steamboat go over in the previous match and have them
have a big WM III re-match. (This was a terrible match. The BUExperience
is all of three lines long because I literally had no action to call)
- Mr. Baseball interviews Bobby Heenan and the Islanders. I
miss 80’s Heenan, he’s so damn funny.
- WWF Title Tournament, Round One: One Man Gang vs. Bam
Bam Bigelow: Bigelow is pretty over here. Okay, for those that keep asking
me, Bam Bam and the Gang are NOT the same guy. (I don’t know where people came
up with that, but holy shit did I get asked it a lot) Here’s your
proof. Gang jumps him, and hammers away. He misses a charge, however, and Bam
Bam cartwheels his way to a two count. Cross body for two, and he drops a head
for two. He does about 500 punches leading to another headbutt, and bounces off
the ropes, but Slick pulls the top rope down, hurting the Bammer. Bigelow gets
back in, and all of a sudden the bell rings and the ref. says Bam Bam was
counted out at 3:01? What? The ref. CLEARLY yelled “FOUR!” at Bam Bam when he
got back in. How is that a count out? Bad match, bad ending. DUD.
- Hulk Hogan gives the absolute most crazy interview I’ve
ever heard. Ever. He talks about how he’s gonna slam Andre again, breaking the U.S.’s east
coast completely off, and sending all his fans (including Donald Trump) into
the ocean. His fans will then swim back to land, on the back of Hogan, after
holding onto Trump
Plaza for salvation. Oh,
and THANK G-D DONALD TRUMP’S A HULK-A-MANIAC! Anyone who’s seen this will get
that reference. (And THANK GOD for YouTube, so we can all experience the insanity that
is 80s Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and the Ultimate Warrior on a regular basis)
- WWF Title Tournament, Round One: Rick Rude vs. Jake
Roberts: This is the last match of round one. This is also in the thick of
the “Rude loves Jake’s wife” angle, but nothing was to be settled here. Oh
yeah, remember what I said about lack of restholds due to time constraints?
Forget that for this one. They do a bunch of false tie ups to start, and a
bunch of slow slams, which is a sure indication that this is gonna go on for
quite a bit. Long arm bar by Jake, as the crowd naps. Jake catches him with a
knee, and goes for the DDT, but Rude bails out. Heenan licks his wounds (not
literally, of course), and he goes back in. You know, the crowd MUST have known
that this would go the time limit, because all the other matches were done in
like five minutes, and this one is exceeding that, and still in rest holds and
feeling out processes. A criss cross leads to a Roberts slam, but he misses a
high knee, and Rude drops him on the back of his head. Clothesline for two, and
Rick goes to the chinlock. Great. He switches it up into a headlock, but Jake
throws him off. Rude hits a 2nd rope axe handle to stop any comeback, and uses
Jake as a punching bag. Clothesline for two, and Rude goes back to the
chinlock. We have now exceeded the longest match so far, and we’re still in
rest holds. Jake breaks out, and takes a faceslam for his troubles. He goes all
the way up, and drops a knee to the head for two. Back to the chinlock. For a
LONG time. During the hold Rude keeps asking the ref. “How much time?” because
he obviously knows this match is dragging. Jake uses a stunner to break free,
and hits a big backdrop. Short clothesline sets up the DDT, but Rick spears him
into the corner. He eats knee off a corner charge, however, and Jake hits a
gutbuster for two. He tries a bulldog, but Rude hits a side suplex for two.
Double clothesline puts both guys out, as the time limit nears expiration. They
fight in the corner, and Rude rolls him up (with two feet on the ropes) to get
a two count, as the time expires after only two. It actually went 15:08,
because Rude and Roberts got to the end sequence a little late. This was the
type of match that looks like it was booked by Bill Watts. That’s NOT a good thing,
BTW. ¼*. I’m surprised Jake was able to go a whole fifteen minutes! He’s
usually out in about six so he can run back and shoot up.
- Hercules vs. The Ultimate Warrior: Warrior was
basically a new guy in the WWF at this point, and he had a feud with Herc
going. The fans loved him, too. They didn’t know what to make of the guy, and
Vince KNEW there was gonna be money to be made off of him in the future. (This
was back in the day when McMahon still actively paid attention to what the fans
wanted, and pushed guys accordingly) They trade shoulderblocks, and
nobody moves, to establish that they’re both big. They trade lots of punches,
and Warrior actually uses chops! Herc gets him down with three clotheslines,
but Warrior returns the favor, only he needs just ONE clothesline to knock him
over. I love attention to detail like that, but the likelyhood is that it just
happened to go that way, and neither man thought about it ahead of time. (That
was likely purposely booked that way) Jim drops him on the ropes, but
Herc backdrops him to the floor. Warrior pulls him out with him, and wins a
slugfest down there. Back in, and Warrior does the ten punch count. He takes an
inverted atomic drop, however, and hooks the Full Nelson. He turns it into a
German suplex, but Warrior lifts his shoulder at two, and Herc doesn’t, giving
Jim the win at 4:36. Herc gets his chain, and chokes him out, but Warrior
breaks free and runs him out. This match looked like two amateurs trying to
wrestle. Very bad. -**.
- Review of Hogan/Andre. Cool feud, but it was cooler when
it came to a head at WM III, than it is here at IV.
- WWF Title Tournament, Round Two: Hulk Hogan vs. Andre
the Giant: These guys got a bye into round two, due to the whole “twin
referees” thing that led to this whole tourney. The scary thing is, Hogan is
the BETTER worker in this match. Think about that statement, and then send me
sentiment cards for watching this show. Andre attacks him as Hogan runs into
the ring, and does his usual hammering. Hogan comes back with punches, and rams
Andre’s head with DiBiase’s. Andre gets hung up in the ropes, and Hulk poses as
DiBiase and Virgil untie the Giant. He gets him down with about 100 punches,
and drops a series of elbows for two. Andre stops that, however, and chokes
away. More choking after that, to change up the pace. Andre then decides that
chokes are boring, and decides to REALLY excite the crowd. How? NERVE HOLDS!
Hogan fights his way out, and calls for the slam, but as he goes for it,
DiBiase bashes him with a chair. Hulk no sells, and runs Teddy out, then uses
the chair on Andre. The ref. takes it away, but Andre steals it from him, and
whacks Hogan! The bell rings, as Hogan beats Andre with the chair some more.
The official call? A double DQ at 5:19. Afterwards, Hogan gives Virgil a
terrible suplex in the isle, and slams Andre just to embarrass everyone. Bad
match, DUD. Hulk poses afterwards, of course. (What a disappointment this match
was. Not only because it was bad in-ring, but it just seemed like another match
on an already bloated show, as opposed to the biggest thing in the world like
it did at WrestleMania III, or The Main Event)
- WWF Title Tournament, Round Two: Don Muraco vs. Ted
DiBiase: Guess who goes over here. The Rock jumps him and rams Teddy to the
posts. Don clotheslines the hell out of him, and a powerslam gets two. The
beating continues, but nothing more inspired than punches and clotheslines.
Dropkick for two, and DiBiase bails. More punches by the Rock. Ted outsmarts
him, and posts the big lug, then puts the boots to him. Clothesline for two,
and Ted catches him with a knee. This is dragging a lot at this point. Fist
drop for two, as Muraco has his foot on the ropes. He slams him, but misses a
2nd rope back elbow, and the Rock (naturally) punches away. A criss cross leads
to a DiBiase stun gun to finally end this at 5:40. About three minutes too
long, and not very inspired wrestling. ¼*.
- Demolition throw out random threats at Strike Force.
- The One Man Gang comes out to except his bye into the
semi-finals due to the Rude/Roberts thing. You see why this show ran so damn
long? People having to COME OUT TO THE RING, and get private intros and
announcements that they got a bye. Gee.
- WWF Title Tournament, Round Two: Greg Valentine vs.
Randy Savage: Savage and Liz are now wearing a second outfit, as they
changed since the first round. Slugfest to open, and Savage posts him. Snapmare
and a knee drop get two for Savage, but Greg sneaks in a forearm to take
control. He goes crazy with about 236 elbow drops for a two count, and hits a
shoulderbreaker for two. Savage gets tossed to the concrete, and Greg follows
with more elbows. I’m waiting for Rhodes/Valentine, with elbow drops/smashes
banned. The moveset would be like, 3, combined. He follows up with choking,
just to make my day. He starts working the knee, to make up for the crappy
choking, but Savage springs for the ropes. He botches a suplex (badly) dropping
Savage on his side for two. Backbreaker for two, but Savage takes over with a
back elbow. Slam, and he hits a double ax for two. Suplex, but he gets nailed
off another ax handle attempt. The Hammer tries the figure four, but Savage
gets a small package to win at 6:05. Not that this was a bad match, it just
wasn’t that good. * ½.
- WWF Intercontinental Title Match: The Honky Tonk Man
vs. Brutus Beefcake: Honky has “Peggy Sue” with him here, which is
Sensational Sherri in a blond wig. The crowd doesn’t really care about this one
too much during the entrances, and that’s REALLY not a good sign. (According
to Beefcake’s shoot interview, the crowd was super pumped to see him! Ignore
those things called ‘eyes’ and ‘ears’ – Brutus Beefcake said!) They do
a long tie up to start, and Honky hammers away. Yawn. Brutus catches him with
an atomic drop, and follows by messing up his hair. Great. Honky bails out, and
stalls for a while. The Barber uses the post to his advantage, and channels
Triple H for a high knee. All this amazing workrate causes Wayne to bail, of course. Back inside, Honky
misses a knee but Brutus follows that by missing an elbow drop. Great, now we
get to sit through Honky’s offense. Lots of punches and stomps going on here.
He goes for the Shake Rattle and Roll, but Beefcake holds onto the ropes to
counter. He makes a full comeback with a backdrop, and other Hulk Hogan offense.
He finally hooks on the sleeper (which oddly breaks the definition of it’s name
by WAKING UP the crowd), but Jimmy Hart bops the ref. over the head with the
megaphone. Honky fades into “unconsciousness” but the ref. is out cold, and
there’s no one to make the call. Brutus chases after Jimmy, catches him, and
proceeds to cut his hair, while Peggy Sue and three other refs. try to wake up
Honky. They finally do, and he takes the belt and bails out. The official call?
Beefcake by DQ at about 9:00 since there was no closing bell. Total DUD.
- Mr. Baseball talks to Andre, but Bob upsets him, and the
Giant does the famous spot where he chokes little Bobby out. It’s a really cool
visual.
- Six Man Tag Team Match: The Islanders and Bobby Heenan
vs. The British Bulldogs and Koko B. Ware: This feud came about when Heenan
and the Islanders stole the Bulldog’s bulldog. Koko was just kinda tossed in
there to make it a six man tag. Heenan, who is, after all, the brain wears a
dog bite suit to the ring to insure the dog can’t get any revenge on him.
Dynamite tears both Islanders up to start, and backdrops Tama to the mat. He
slingshots him to the post, and Tama sells it by falling to the floor. At least
he sells. Haku tags in, and he and Davey Boy have a power exchange. Smith cross
body for two, and a slam for two. Crucifix gets two, as this was before Davey
started to suck. Tama tags back in, and works the arm, but Davey hits a press
slam. Koko and Haku have a go, and Ware hits a nice dropkick. He takes both Islanders
down with head scissors, and everyone tags out. Dynamite and Heenan are next to
go, and Bobby just puts the boots to him, then quickly tags Tama. He hits a
backdrop to officially make Dynamite Ricky Morton. Doesn’t last, however, as
Koko tags in. He cleans house on both Islanders, but Haku catches him with a
kick to stop it. They kill Koko, and then tag Heenan in to lay in his shots.
Ware dropkicks him into the corner, and now everyone comes in to brawl. The
Islanders win that, and slam Heenan onto Ware to get the pin at 7:30. Weird
booking. Afterwards the Bulldogs chase Heenan down with Matilda (the bulldog).
Best match in a while for this show. ** ¼. Six man’s really hide a bad
wrestlers weaknesses.
- Jesse Ventura takes up PPV time to get up and pose. Like
I’ve said before, the man’s a hypocrite, he complains about Hogan posing all
the time, but he’s just as bad, if not worse. (I’d say worse, since Hogan may
have been a backstage politician, but Ventura
became a literal politician)
- Ted DiBiase comes out to accept his bye to the finals due
to Hogan and Andre eliminating eachother.
- WWF Title Tournament, Semi-finals: One Man Gang vs.
Randy Savage: Savage and Liz have yet another new outfit on here. Why does
Liz always seem non-happy to be there, at a wrestling event in general, until
about 1991? She always seems upset. (Yeah, seriously, what the fuck is wrong
with her? Who is she that she can’t appreciate being locked in broom closets
for hours at a time? Bitch) Savage snaps his neck on the ropes to
start, but the big man takes over quickly. Total punch-kick fare here so far.
He finally slams him to get two, but the crowd is GONE. Big fat ass elbow for
two, but he misses a big splash. He then misses a corner charge, and Macho
knocks him to the floor. He follows up with an axe handle, and drags him back
in. He tries a slam (which backfires, of course) and Gang goes back to work. He
gets the cane from Slick, and uses it, causing a DQ at 4:05, putting Savage in
the finals. – *. Yep, negative stars.
- Mean Gene and Vanna White go over the final brackets for
the title tournament. She leaves to go to ringside, and Mr. Baseball finally
shows up to meet her. But she just left! HA HA HA!!! Actually, this was kinda
funny as the running gag all night was that Bob was searching for Vanna, but
she didn’t even know who he was. (And all these years later, she’s STILL a
household name)
- WWF Tag Team Title Match: Strike Force vs. Demolition:
The Demo’s were heels at this point. Crowd doesn’t give a shit about either
team, BTW. Smash and Martel start, and Smash just tears him apart (getting face
pops, even though he’s a heel.) See, Demolition started as heels, but just
rolled through everyone in the WWF, so the fans just naturally started
cheering. It’s like the Austin-effect, almost. This was just a formality to put
the tag titles on them. Big brawl ensues, and Strike Force easily wins. The
faces are in control of this one, but they don’t do anything more inspired than
arm bars. The Demos take over, and beat the crap out of Tito. Ax powerslams him
for two, and Smash suplexes him for another two. Of course, there was about two
minutes of punching between the two spots. Tito Morton finally sneaks in the
flying forearm, and makes the tag to Martel. Not a hot tag though, as the crowd
doesn’t care. Rick cleans house, and hooks Smash in the Boston Crab (the move
they used to win the titles), but Smash won’t tap. A big brawl starts, and Ax
decks Martel with Fuji’s
cane to allow Smash an easy pin at 8:00. Decent pop for that, too. Boring as
hell, however. - *.
- WWF Title Tournament, Final Round: Ted DiBiase vs.
Randy Savage: This is it, the title match. All that crap leads to this.
Robin Leach comes back out with the brand new WWF belt (the one they used from
here until 1998), and still seems upset to be there. Mr. Baseball is the guest
ring announcer (just like the year before), and Vanna is the guest timekeeper.
Big pop for her, too. Bob also finally gets to meet her, and nearly faints. Ted
has Andre, but still no Virgil as that crappy Hogan suplex must have killed him.
Savage and Liz wear the 4th (and final) new outfit here, all in white now.
Savage controls to start, but Andre trips up Savage early on. A criss cross
leads to Andre tripping Macho again, as the crowd chants for Hogan. Ted
controls him as a result of Andre’s interference, and hits a back elbow for
two. DiBiase tries a sunset flip, but Savage decks him, and clotheslines him
for two. He snaps his neck over the ropes, and knees him to the floor. He wants
to follow up with an axe handle, but Andre stands over DiBiase to protect him.
Savage has enough of this crap, and sends Liz to the back for something. Three
guesses as to what. (Tampons?) DiBiase hooks a chinlock, as Liz returns down the
isle with Hogan, getting a BIG pop. Hogan sits down in Macho’s corner, but
DiBiase and Andre still cheat. Hulk gets sick of that, and decks Andre, to even
the score. Ted still has control, however, and suplexes him for two. Gutwrench
suplex for two, and he slams him. He goes up top, but Savage catches him with a
slam, only to miss the big elbow! DiBiase easily hooks on the Dream, but Hulk
comes in (behind the refs. back) and blasts Ted with a chair. Savage heads up
top, and this time hits the big elbow to win the title at 9:16. Hulk hands him
the title, and the two celebrate together to big pops. DiBiase and Savage would
go on to have a bunch of great matches over the summer, but this isn’t one of
them. It’s okay, however. ** ¼.
- Bottom Line: Funny story I’ve heard. See,
originally DiBiase was scheduled to win the title here, and Savage was
scheduled to be the IC champ after defeating Honky on the Main Event show in
February. However, Honky refused to job the title (threatening a jump to the
NWA), so the WWF gave the tourney to Savage to compensate. Unfortunately, even
though this show has big historical meaning in Savage’s first WWF Title win, it
isn’t a very good show. It’s very long, very slow, and filled with bad
wrestling. The best match was the main event at ** ¼, and that isn’t a good
sign. Overall, not much to see here.
- Recommendation to avoid.
