One night only (uk event)

Recommended Posts

Guest Andy

I heard that the commercial version of One Night Only is clipped? If this is true, does anyone know which matches were clipped? Or are there just different matches in the UK and US releases?

 

Thanks,

 

Andy

I am almost positive Bret-Undertaker is not on there. That is all I know.

I have the commercial tape but I never saw the original version off of PPV so I dont know what is missing. If there is a Bret Hart vs Undertaker match on that show it is not on here. The matches on the tape I have are :

DBS vs HBK for Euro title

Vader vs Owen

LOD vs Godwinns

Dude Love vs HHH

Head Bangers vs Los Boricuas

 

the tape is 120 mins so im guessing it is clipped in some areas.

Yes, Undertaker went against Bret on the ppv.  It was a GREAT match, maybe Taker's best ever.  It's not on the commercial release.  I have the actual ppv on tape taped from the UK.  It is really a good match.

I just bought the commercial version at a video store for $2.99.  I really wanted to see that Bret Hart match but it was only $2.99 anyway.

Davey vs HBK is good enough to warrent a price of 2.99 to buy the tape.

On the original PPv there was also a Patriot vs, Tiger Ali Singh match.

 

It's funny because they reused the Patriot's music for Kurt Angle.

Just heard that apparently the UK release has Bret vs Taker on it.

 

Thanks,

Bastards.  From what I have heard they had a terrific match and I'm stuck looking at Los Boricuas, Tiger Ali Singh, The Patriot, and probably the motherfucking DOA.  Was the Bret/Taker match removed because of the screwjob that took place shortly after if anyone has that info?

The only matches that I know that are missing from the U.S. tape of One Night Only are:

Tiger Ali Singh vs. Leif Cassidy

The Patriot vs. Flash Funk.

Does anyone else know what is missing from the tape?

Not sure. The UK release of Survivor Series '97 seems quite complete.

There's no reason for them to cut out the Bret-Taker match because of what happened in Montreal. I mean, Vince would crow about the incident for years to come, so it couldn't have anything to do with that.

First, the match between Taker and Bret is great.  I have the entire ppv, converted from PAL of course.  It might be Taker's best ever match.

 

I think there might be a few reasons why it is cut.  One, it was a really long match, close to 40 minutes.  Maybe there was a time issue.  Also, the match had just happened at Summer Slam, and it was a hugely built up match.  Maybe they didn't want to cheapen that with a rematch right away.  Another reason is that when Bret was champion that last time, he was never really featured.  HBK was the man any way.  And finally, I believe that tape came out before survivor series.  If you remember, Hart Foundation were cheered everywhere but the U.S.  Vince wanted Bret over as a heel.  Maybe he didn't want that match available showing that Bret was the babyface in that match.
