Starts with an opening match between Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs Mick Foley's "Dude Love" character. Match wasn't all that great; entertaining, yes, but not all that great. There _was_ a great moment (IMO, anyway) where Helmsley shoved the referee angrily and it kind of backfired on him. That was probably the highlight of the match. It just seemed like the chemistry between the two was "off" or something. It ended pretty much the way you would expect. Next is the runway introduction of "Sunny" who (for whatever reasons; eye candy, maybe?) served as the "special guest ring announcer" for the match between "Leif Cassidy" (Allen Ray Sarven's character before the introduction of his better-known "Al Snow" persona) vs. Tiger Ali Singh. To be honest, I kind of ignored this one as I wasn't really interested in either character, so I can't tell you if this was interesting or not. The ending (of this match) really looked botched and even illicited some boos from the crowd; I was just glad when it was over. However, the next match wasn't much more (if at all) interesting, being a tag-team match between The Headbangers vs Savio Vega/Miguel Perez. Again, I couldn't muster a lot of interest in this particular match so it was easy to kind of breeze through this one while it was going. I didn't "skip" through it; I just wasn't glued to the screen like I would've been in many other matches. It ended interestingly enough but still wasn't all that great a match. Next up was yet another yawn-inducing match between "Flash Funk" vs "The Patriot". Really not sure what was going on in this match; I don't know if it was jet-lag or just lack of experience or what but there were numerous points in this particular match that one or both wrestlers appeared to not really know what their next move was. Several botched moves, instances where one (or both) would just stand for several seconds, looking at his opponent as if he were waiting on something to happen... I'm willing to bet I wasn't the only person glad when this one ended. Now we have another matchup that seems to be a bit travel-worn: The Legion of Doom vs The Godwinn brothers. These two teams have met so many times that it might be easy to get a bit tired of seeing them wrestle yet again but this was actually a decent match. Again, it seems like the LoD have lost that "edge" they had early in their careers (when other tag-teams dreaded facing them) but maybe that "edge" was simply due to them being young, inexperienced, (what is known as "stiff") and not quite as "polished" in their in-ring performance as they were in their later days. But here, they were still very entertaining and it turned into a good match with an even better ending. Following this match was a short interview/introduction of Ken Shamrock (still being labled as "The World's Most Dangerous Man"); Shamrock was _"unable to wrestle...due to an earlier injury"_ so he was being interviewed when "Rockabilly" (aka Bill Gunn) came out and made things interesting. The next match was Owen Hart vs ... the next match isn't even worth mentioning because it involves Fatty the Pigface Leon White, who couldn't "wrestle" his way out of a paper bag. I'm not a fan of Owen Hart but I'll give him credit: he at least made the match somewhat interesting. Leon White (appearing as that annoying character 'Vader' which I still think is moronic) couldn't make a match interesting if you held a gun to his fat head. Next on the menu was the co-main event, featuring Bret 'Hitman' Hart vs The Undertaker. The match was interesting enough but had some weird conclusion that I didn't really get. No spoilers here; you'll just have to watch it and see if you can figure it out. It made no sense to me. Finally, the main event, and of course it features Vince McMahon's favorite Boy Toy, Michael Hickenbottom. The only thing I found remotely interesting about this one was this being the PPV debut of "DeGeneration X" - the combination of Hickenbottom, Paul "Hunter Hearst Helmsely" Levesque, and Joan "Chyna" Laurer. Hickenbottom (wrestling as "Shawn Michaels") squares off against The British Bulldog in the "main event" for the European Heavyweight Title. As per usual (when he's not the one in the spotlight), Hickenbottom **completely** oversold every single move by The Bulldog, making the entire match seem ridiculous. He (Hickenbottom) did this so many times, in so many matches, against so many of his fellow performers, that it's small wonder that he was so hated and had such a horrible reputation in the industry. I will say, it was kind of melancholy seeing "Rick Rude" reduced to just a "bit part", appearing ringside as some "insurance policy" enforcer, rather than being his former arrogant and Olympian-like "Ravishing Ric Rude" character. The end of the match practically ended in chaos, as you knew it would...but this ushered in - I suppose "officially" - the "Attitude Era" of the WWF. Things can only get more interesting from here...
