I can't believe it's been more then 20 years since these angles took place..
Out of these 6 angles, which freaked you out more as a younger fan? I miss angles like these where they actually feel like it's real how long they take with them on tv... The Warrior and The Snake Bite ones seemed like they went on forever and it really added to the drama..
The Ric Flair one and the Shawn Michaels one were last minute adds because I was going to keep it strictly early 1990's WWF, but I remembered how both of those angles (yes, even the 1997 one), really freaked me out how real it felt.

honestly? The Mega Powers breaking up. Hogan screaming and attacking The Rockers and the Hart Foundation absolutely scared me as a kid. I had to leave the room. and then a cousin wanted to watch it a few days later and I didn't want to.

Jake-Macho and nothing that has come before or after will ever spook me that much.

Undoubtedly The Undertaker locking Warrior inside a casket. I seriously have a legit fear of caskets ever since and it's been a struggle for me to go to a funeral home when I had to because of that angle.

Yes, Bret n Shawn getting yelled at is far more scary than Elizabeth getting violently thrown across the room! LOL |

The two Doinks beating up Crush with a fake arm scared me as a kid.

Jake/Savage. I HAAAATED Jake with a passion as a kid because of it and couldn't watch Survivor Series 1991. I would freak out as a kid any time he came out because of it also.

I've never heard of Funk putting a bag over Flair's head, that sounds insane.

Cobra biting Jake, easily. The 2nd place angle is not even on there, which would be Papa Shango and Warrior.

1991 and 1992 had a lot of attempts at angles that were cartoony yet more hardcore, didn't they? Warrior being buried, the death of Damien, cobra attacks, Mountie throwing water on Bret Hart to electrocute him, Berzerker trying to stab Undertaker, NAILZ' DEBUT...
I think a lot of the 1991 angles were what freaked me out as a kid...the casket, the cobra, and Damien being squashed in particular.
And before that, when Andre choked out Hogan on the Jan 1988 SNME.

And wasn't it funny that Hogan was throwing around the two guys who'd be the future of the WWF? That also reminds me...Perfect destroying the belt made me upset too. |

Voted for Warrior being locked in the casket. I didn't see it when it happened, my aunt told me about it, she sold it better than the announcers ever could. I would have been 8 or so, I thought it was 100% real, even knowing wrestling wasn't. I was shocked.

The Undertaker/Warrior angle
I still remember them using sledgehammers and a drill (wtf?!?) to try to open it
