Slickster 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2004 July 25, 1999, Buffalo, NY: WWF World Champion Steve Austin defeated the Undertaker in a First Blood, End of an Era match at 15:31 following a TV camera shot to the head after X-Pac interfered and kicked a chair into the challenger's face; prematch stipulations called for if Austin won, Vince McMahon would leave the WWF forever and if Taker won, Austin would never recieve a world title shot; Triple H attacked Austin after the match but the Rock made the save; Austin and Taker continued to brawl after the contest until Taker left ringside and Austin gave McMahon a goodbye handshake, just to hit the Stunner on him.

Guest Frank_Nabbit Report post Posted July 26, 2004 And since the stipulations lasted 2 months and Taker/Austin only fought 200 more times this truly was a momentous date.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
