Help me place a time for this match

I have this match on a comp video, Gorilla Monsoon and Johnny Polo are on commentary. Gorilla says it's a Coliseum Video exclusive. HBK is the IC champion but the match is non-title. It seems somewhere between after HBK regained the belt from Marty Jannetty and before he left the WWF (late 1993).

 

The thing with this match is that it looked very much like the basic blueprint for Bret and Owen's WWE Title cage match at SummerSlam. Some spots were exactly the same and the ending was basically the same one. So many people love the SummerSlam cage match (me included) and this one hardly gets noticed. Of course it's not as good as that one, but it had to be somewhat of a tryout or something for a bigger match.

 

Please help me put a date/time to this one. Thanks in advance.

Check cawthon777's site in his sig, it has the complete results of pretty much every Coliseum Video made, along with dates and location of the match.

And if that doesn't work (the CHV page does need updating), search the year in which it happened.

 

WWF @ Utica, NY - December 1, 1993

WWF Superstars taping:

Bret Hart defeated Shawn Michaels in a steel cage match by escaping over the top as Michaels had his feet caught inbetween the steel bars

 

Shawn had an IC belt ... but it was the fake one he returned with following his suspension. The commentators say different but that's nothing new.

Cawthon777, I just checked your site and was about to post the answer, thanks.

 

Yes, I found it weird when Gorilla said Shawn was IC Champion, since I remember HBK being so out of shape last time he was IC champ, and on this match he looked back to normal, so that meant late-1993 when he returned from his hiatus.

 

Anyway, I just wanted to make sure it was before SummerSlam 1994, since the cage matches seem so alike.
