Coming down the aisle, at 6 feet, weighing in at 235 pounds, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada… BRET “THE HITMAN” HART!!!!
Unsurprisingly, Backlund and Bret put on a clinic. Both men went toe-to-toe in a technical classic. Bret used his tried and true submission moves to wear Backlund down early on, but Backlund surprised him with a boot to the face when Bret went for a second rope elbow drop. Backlund took over, using his technical skills and various suplexes to sap Bret’s strength; but Bret persevered. Backlund then went for some submission holds of his own to try and put Bret away. But, The Hitman held on. After several minutes, Bret surprised Backlund with a crossbody and took back over. Bret beat down on Backlund for a good while, but every time he went for the Sharpshooter, Backlund managed to get out of it. In the final minutes of the match, it went back and forth as both men were desperate to win. In the end, Backlund tried to hit Bret with Atomic Spinecrusher (Running atomic drop), but Bret rolled over him, grabbed Backlund from behind, and hit him with a German suplex. However, Bret ended up accidentally flung Backlund’s leg into the ref’s head, knocking him down. Bret locked Backlund in the Sharpshooter. While he has it locked on, Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji come out. Fuji throws salt into Bret’s eyes while Yoko wakes up the referee. Bret falls to the mat, blinded. Backlund gets up, grabs Bret, and throws him shoulder first into the steel post. Backlund grabs Bret and locks him into a Crossface Chickenwing. Bret ends up passing out in the hold. The ref calls for the bell. Backlund is the new WWE Champion. Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji come into the ring and help Backlund to beat up Bret.
Backlund holds onto the title until the first King Of The Ring PPV. In the first ever Triple Threat Match, Backlund and Yokozuna gang up on Bret until the allure of the title causes Yoko to turn on Backlund. He takes the title off of Backlund and holds onto it until today, which brings us to…
Rules!!!!
1. All participants are divided into suits (clubs, diamonds, hearts, spades). One group of 7 will start the match. (This will change for the 1988, 2011, and Greatest Rumbles.)
2. Another group will come in each poll.
3. There will be 2 jokers who enter last. (1 joker for the 1988, 2011, and Greatest Rumbles.)
4. You will get multiple votes for eliminations, 1 less than the number of participants in the match in each poll.
5. The person with the most votes is eliminated.
6. The person with the fewest votes gets the elimination. If there’s a tie between 2 people, they’ll share the elimination. If there’s a tie between 3 or more, the person who’s been in the longest will get the elimination and then it will alternate going down for the next time it happens.
7. There will be a “No elimination” option for the first poll. If there’s more than 8 people in the next polls, then there will be no “No elimination” option.
8. In the last poll to determine the winner, the vote will be to pick the winner not who gets eliminated last.
9. If the last two participants tie, then the person who got the most eliminations will win.
10. If the WWE Title Redo poll ends in a tie, then the champ will retain the title. (Applies starting with 1993.)
