No show for 2004.

Some pretty cool stuff here.

1985 has a Hogan/Ventura match in Minnesota...with Jesse WINNING! (via count out, of course)

1987's house show has an interesting 6-man tag team main event.

Man, that second 1995 house show looks BRUTAL.

The 1996 MSG show here was used in main angles at the time, especially Diesel hitting HBK with the chair, which was shown a lot in the buildup to the April IYH match between the two.

1997 has the RAW episode with Bret saying "this is bullshit" on live TV, so that's pretty cool.

1998 has Austin vs. Rock in one of their early matches. I've never seen this, is it any good? They always seemed to have good chemistry.

2002 of course has Wrestlemania 18 on this date.

Some interesting stuff here (as always)...

We have the setup for the Lesnar/Cena match at Backlash 2003, as Cena was getting his first main event push.

We have Big Show joining the nWo, and HHH appearing on RAW (when he wasn't supposed to) and getting arrested.

Almost 11,000 people going to a house show in New Mexico in 2001.

Really bad looking house shows in 1999 and 2000.

Ahmed and Bulldog ARM WRESTLING and a house show in 1996?

Tatanka losing a house show match to IRS for hitting the ref?

Dibiase beating Piper with the figure four leg lock in 1991, plus Slaughter beating Hogan by DQ in a Wrestlemania 7 rematch.

Savage getting a count out win over Hogan in 1989.

A big TV taping with a ton of stuff in 1988.

Savage and Tito in a no-DQ match in 1986! (What brought that about?)

Muraco beating Hogan by countout at MSG in 1985...and who was the Cobra?

WWF @ Notre Dame, IN - April 22, 1999

Owen Hart & Jeff Jarrett defeated Christian & Edge
WWF Hardcore Champion Bob Holly defeated Val Venis
The Acolytes defeated DOA
Kane pinned Mideon
D-Lo Brown & Ivory defeated Al Snow & Tori
Billy Gunn pinned Darren Drozdov
Road Dogg & the Big Show defeated Triple H & the Rock
WWF IC Champion the Godfather defeated Goldust

I was there! Crappy, but fun show, the original card was MUCH better, don't remember what it was but it was better, but it got pushed back because of snow several times. The main event (Road Dogg and Show vs HHH and Rock) always bugged me because I thought it should have been The Outlaws vs HHH and The Rock. Godfather got the most heat because he didn't have his hos with him, he said that the pope wouldn't let them in. This was also the show that I believe got WWF/E barred from Notre Dame due to profanity use by Road Dogg. "You can throw beer on me, but I can't use profanity, fuck that!" Huge Pop. The show a year before had been better but this one was okay, I remember really liking Hart and Jarrett vs Christain and Edge. Can't believe this was so long ago.

Or something.

Anyways, feel free to post thoughts, comments, questions, etc.

WWF @ Landover, MD - USAir Arena - March 16, 1996 (6,660)

WWF World Champion Bret Hart defeated the Undertaker
WWF World Champion Bret Hart defeated Diesel

**I'm guessing Bret won via DQ when Diesel interfered in the first title match, and then beat Diesel to end the show?**

I believe this was part of a series of 'triangle' matches that headlined house shows at that time. The triangle match consisted of a series of one-on-one matches between Bret, 'Taker and Diesel, with the series going on until one man had beaten both of the others in consecutive matches.

Bret wrestled Undertaker first, pinning him when Diesel interfered. Bret then wrestled Diesel, and pinned him when Undertaker interfered.
