I'd never actully seen that.
The old Slammmy Awards look vastly superior to the current version, a wrestling awards show needs to be campy as hell and the newer version tries to be sleek and hip. The saxophone inflected version of Mankind's theme made me want to watch the whole show.

Always thought it would be funny if Daniel Bryan was still a heel and if he had won the Andre battle royal, he could have carried that giant Andre statue around like Owen did his slammy...

Masterful in every which way. Spilling the tray of drinks on an unsuspecting Vader and legit pissing him off was the icing on the cake.

I saw a match I had no recollection of a few weeks ago. It was Shawn Michael vs Owen Hart, Champion vs. Champion (Euro vs. IC). Owen said that they should keep it one on one and the better man would walk away with two titles...and two Slammys. |

Why do I get the feeling that there was actually supposed to be a Slammy winner and this was Owen doing a rib?

This was one of those little subtle things that amused me to no end with Owen's character. I always absolutely loved how, from here on out, the announcers even announced him as a two-time Slammy award winner, as if the way he "won" this was perfectly legitimate and not at all tainted. Little touches like that are missed nowadays.

I'm not that big of an Owen fan outside of his Bret feud (even then his mic work was horrendous) but his delusional almost comedic heel routine from the mid 90s until he became the Black Hart was fantastic stuff. He was such a doofus that it just worked, annoying and genuinely funny in equal measure.
