IYH, 2 of WWF's best feuds of the last couple of years, granted Undertaker VS Mankind was done to death in 96, but it least had the WWF Championship on the line. Thought L.O.D might have taken The Tag Belts as well.

I went with Spring Stampede as it was DDP's crowning moment getting the win over Randy Savage.
The IYH show was good but I preferred the WCW card this month.

That is one of the weaker looking WCW PPVs so far. I just didn't care at all about footballers like Kevin Greene, Reggie White or Mongo being in big matches so I'd have chosen WWF, mostly for Vader/Shamrock and Taker/Austin.

Mostly because I was a huge WCW/NWO fan at the time and I didn't think Austin would win the title just yet, I went with Slamboree.

I went back and forth on this, but I'm picking Slamboree.
It's got a lot of odd matches that I think I would enjoy. The only thing that pisses me off is that Konnan/Hugh Morrus tag team. Is there a less interesting tag team to ever tag team?
IYH has got a few eyesores. The notion of Shamrock going over Vader pisses me off, and I can't imagine a more boring slog than Ahmed vs. Faarooq. Flash Funk is just a couple steps above a jobber at this point, and whatever HHH is doing is always the least interesting thing on the show for me.

IYH, Taker VS Austin was a curiosity, Shamrock VS Vader would interest me and the possible conclusion to the Ahmed VS Nation Of Domination Feud.
Slamboree looked rubbish

Honestly, IYH in retrospect, if only because it's one of the only times Austin faced Taker and was able to take the Tombstone Piledriver.
Otherwise, both of these shows are major "we have to have a May PPV but we really don't need one" vibes.

KOTR. The first big Austin/Michaels match plus young me would have loved to see Sid and LOD teaming up.

I'll go Great American Bash, wasn't the strongest line up but King Of The Ring didn't do anything for me.
I'd imagine ECW is soon,

Great American Bash takes this one. Quite a few interesting matches there.
KOTR has the Hart Foundation vs. Sid/LOD match and HBK vs. Austin but not much else.

With the caveat that we are picking from the mindset we were at the time the PPV aired, I'd have to go with WCW. It wasn't really until late '97 that the WCW overexposure started.

Great American Bash, I wasn't interested in seeing Undertaker vs. Faarooq as a main event and wasn't really interested in the rest of the card at the time.
