    If you remember, Savage / Zeus did the post-match locker room attack on Hogan / Beefcake to build for the cage match. That couldn't have happened if Hogan went on last.

    Just Watched the Bret Hart DVD

    A few notes: The main feature comes in at just over 2 hours. Guys who participated include Bret, Vince, JR, Christian, Road Warrior Animal, Roddy Piper, Bruce Prichard, Steve Austin, Jimmy Hart, Gene Okerlund, Eric Bischoff, and Chris Benoit. Vince gives a introduction to the feature, thanking Bret for putting all the differences aside and agreeing to participate. Bret gives an intro to the extras, saying he personally picked them. The feature covers Bret's life very well, from birth to the present day. A good chunk of Stampede footage is included and highlights matches against Dynamite Kid, the Stomper, Leo Burke, Bad News Allen, and Nick Bockwinkel. He doesn't say anything negative about Flair. In fact he puts him over ... but does say Flair pulled a few things in their world title match that he didn't expect. He calls Shawn a bastard but puts him over athletically. Puts over Austin huge. The Hart Foundation angle from 97 is covered pretty well. The tag team itself is put over as one of the top teams of all time by those speaking. The first disc features several interview clips of Bret that weren't used in the main feature. These include Bret telling a story about Owen prank calling Stu, talking about Konnan teaching him how to do the Sharpshooter, talking about the death of his brother Dean and how Ted Dibiase let him put on a strong showing at Survivor Series 90, and several others. The most moving is a tribute to the many stars that have died in recent years - from Owen and Pillman to Hawk, Yoko, Perfect, Rude, Bossman, etc. Bret gets pretty emotional during the segment and says Rude will always be a hero to him but doesn't elaborate. Here are the matches featured with details. A few interesting notes when it comes to commentary: The Bret Hart Story: The Best There Is, Was, and Ever Will Be (11/15/05) - Davey Boy Smith & the Dynamite Kid fought Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart (w/ Jimmy Hart) to a curfew draw at 13:12 (7/13/85; Madison Square Garden) - Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart (w/ Jimmy Hart) fought B.

    I know they took it to DC. They filmed those scenes in July 93, the day of my 2nd house show at the Cap Centre just outside DC. Luger ended up making the save for Bret against Yoko after that night's main event. Just from watching the music video, they obviously took it to Manhattan. I think there also was a Mount Rushmore shot, IIRC.

    Clean Heel Wins

    He feuded with Taker most of that time and I'd say 90% of those wins were via salt bucket to the head.

    As I recall, it was a work. Marty was selling the Barber Shop injury. According to Marty's shoot, he was placed under house arrest after a scuffle with a cop.

    There's not much of a debate to it. It's fact. New York City, NY Madison Square Garden July 23, 1984 The Brawl to End it All - aired live on MTV: - Wendi Richter (w/ Cyndi Lauper) pinned WWF Women's Champion the Fabulous Moolah (w/ Capt. Lou Albano) to win the title at 11:20 after lifting her right shoulder out of a bridged roll up; David Wolfe did guest commentary for the bout; after the bout, Moolah & Albano attacked the referee after hearing the decision New York City, NY Madison Square Garden February 18, 1985 - Leilani Kai (w/ the Fabulous Moolah) pinned WWF Women's Champion Wendi Richter (w/ Cyndi Lauper & David Wolff) with a roll up to win the title at 11:49 after Moolah hit the champion with her purse as Richter was trying to help Lauper on the floor after she was attacked by Moolah WrestleMania New York City, NY Madison Square Garden March 31, 1985 - Wendi Richter (w/ Cyndi Lauper) pinned WWF Women's Champion Lelani Kai (w/ the Fabulous Moolah) to win the title New York City, NY Madison Square Garden November 25, 1985 - Spider Lady pinned WWF Women's Champion Wendi Richter to win the title at 6:38 with a small package even though the champion kicked out after the 1-count; after the bout, Richter continued attacking the challenger, even pulling her mask off to reveal her as the Fabulous Moolah, not realizing the match had ended and - once she did - she refused to give up the championship belt; the finish, which Richter was unaware, came as a result of contract disputes with the champion (Richter's last match in the WWF) Brisbane, Australia Festival Hall July 3, 1986 - Velvet McIntyre defeated WWF Women's Champion the Fabulous Moolah to win the title Sydney, Australia Homebush Sports Center July 9, 1986 - The Fabulous Moolah defeated WWF Women's Champion Velvet McIntyre to win the title Houston, TX Sam Houston Coliseum July 24, 1987 - Sherri Martel pinned WWF Women's Champion the Fabulous Moolah to win the title at 7:56 by blocking an attempted slam into the ring and reversing it into a cradle; after the match, Moolah knocked down referee Joey Marella for counting the pin before Sherri hit her in the back with the title belt - sending Moolah to the floor As far as her run pre 1984, I'm fairly certain she traded the belt several times between the 50s and then, even if they were only 6-day runs like what Velvet enjoyed. There were several name female wrestlers at the time.

    1992 The Year In Review. I think I remember something like Bret Hart handing Piper a boot to hit Michaels or something to that effect? Anyone could fill me in with some details on this like whose boot was it or if it was a boot at all? Thanks in advance. WWF @ Biloxi, MS - Coast Coliseum - March 10, 1992 Road to WrestleMania VIII: Shawn Michaels (w/ Sensational Sherri) defeated WWF IC Champion Roddy Piper via disqualification when the champion attempted to hit Michaels with Sherri's boot - handed to him by Bret Hart

    No, she didn't show up there until 97, mid-way through the Benoit / Sullivan feud.

    Insider Timeline: 1995

    I have record of Candido working a dark match during that time but not the others. Henry doesn't make any sense considering he had to have been in heavy training at that time for the 96 Olympics.

    The same argument was made when Angle beat Austin for the title in 2001, that Austin grabbed the ring apron before he tapped out and that should have forced the hold to be broken.
