Hall looks better than HBK these days.

The ending was great, with HBK trapped in the ropes. I love the little touch where Shawn realises he's getting his leg free too early, so in doing that, he sticks his arm into the ropes and re-traps himself to keep the finish. |

No. Savage-Crush was like 3rd or 4th on the card, before the midshow Luger/Yoko title match. Match placement wise, the 10 man probably was right after HBK/Razor - back in them days, you didn't tend to end the PPV with 2 hot matches in a row, so you'd put a filler match in between as buffer to give the fans a breather. The 2 matches on the card that probably "went long" were Bret/Owen and HBK/Razor - well worth those efforts, so losing the 10 man tag was unfortunate (I've always enjoyed midcard matches on Manias; plus those 10 guys may've lost a WM payday) but......well, look what we got. They still got paid. In a shoot interview Rick Martel, who was scheduled to be in that match, said he himself wasn't bothered as he still got his money and had already been on several WrestleMania's but felt bad for the other guys in the match as most of them (Smoking Gunns, Jarrett, Holly, 1-2-3 Kid)) had never been in one. I understand why Savage was so pissed at Shawn and Razor as it must've really sucked for the guys in that 10 man tag to get the rug pulled out from under them on such short notice. Randy should’ve saved his rage for the real people who caused that match to be cancelled: those selfish heels who couldn’t decide who would be the team captain! |
