WWF: Raw is War
June 9, 1997
Hartford, CT
Civic Center
The current WWF champs were as follows:
World Champion: The Undertaker (3/23/1997)
Intercontinental Champion: Owen Hart (4/28/1997)
European Champion: Davey Boy Smith (3/3/1997)
World Tag Team Champions: Shawn Michaels & Steve Austin (5/26/1997)
Most of you insiders reading this probably already know the story, but this is the infamous evening where Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels – both scheduled to appear on the program – got into a legitimate argument backstage. Apparently, the argument that started all of this was Bret confronting Shawn over his comments about Bret having “Sunny days” crossing the line a couple weeks back. Once they started fighting, Shawn got a hunk of his hair pulled out of his head and walked out of the company for the second time in four months this time claiming unsafe working conditions and threatened to leave the WWF for good to go work with his “real friends” over in WCW. Nothing concerning the off-screen altercation was mentioned on the air until the following week when the WWF tag team belts were declared vacant for the third time in three years.

The Good, Bad, Presentable, and Ugly: WWE Over the Limit 5.20.2012 Review
My wrestling writing career would prove the saying life goes around in circles. After writing almost everywhere a writer who writes about men in spandex fake wrestling each other, I am back where I started. I don’t know how long I will be here. It all depends, mainly on how many people comment on my reviews. So comment away.
In case you don’t know how this review works, I will quickly explain it:
On a PPV, I judge upon how good the matches are, how good booking of the PPV is, and how good a segment or promo is if there is any. I put each match, segment or promo into categories and then afterwards give an overall grade for the PPV. The categories are good, which is something that’s obviously good. Presentable, which means almost good, but has flaws and/or something’s lacking. Bad, which is something that has major flaws and did not deserve to be on the show, although it’s still watch able to a point. And the ugly (also known as Russotarded), which is something that makes you want to crave your eyes out when you’re watching it due to the stupidity.

Yesterday at MSG, Diesel went FULL BLOWN HEEL and laid waste with a steel chair not to just Bret Hart and the Undertaker, but he then did the unthinkable and took out his own best friend Shawn Michaels as well! Maybe we’ll find out why tonight.

This episode is less about showing you wrestling matches and more about being an hour-long infomercial that forces the build for WrestleMania XI down your throat. Jim Ross and Gorilla Monsoon are “in the arena”, which in this case means in the sound booth calling the one match you’ll see. Read the rest of this entry
