Was the One Night Only PPV available only in England, along the lines of the British-only PPVs that followed, such as Mayhem In Manchester, Rebellion, Insurrection, etc.?

 

Or was it available in the States, like a normal In Your House-type PPV would be?

 

Just curious.

 

Thanks for the help.

Bret Hart got the PPV providers in Canada to carry it aswell...

From what I remember, the only match that was hyped in the US was Bulldog-HBK. They mentioned that several times on TV, I believe first announcing it at Summerslam complete with match graphic.

I guess since it was the first UK PPV in the "post Hogan" era they wanted A) to drum upn support and treat it like a normal PPV and B) Be able to get the most out of eventual VHS release of the PPV so it got a good amount of run as a "serious PPV" rather than what the UK PPVs eventually became

Thanks for the help guys.

 

I kind of figured it wasn't available in the States, yet I remembered them hyping it on TV so much that I was confused.

 

I didn't know that it ended up being shown in Canada too; that's interesting.
