Post Summer Slam 1993 - Undertaker vs. Bret Hart for the WWF Title headlines a Raw in October and it ends in DQ when the jealous Owen Hart turns on his brother while Bret is struggling to apply the Sharpshooter on Taker - On a October edition of Raw, Yokozuna defeats Mr. Perfect and also injuries them ending his career. Randy Savage is alarmed by how many people Yoko has put out of the business and gets helped by his old enemy Lex Luger, who turns face and dares Yoko to face someone his size - Jeff Jarrett debuts in the WWF as the world's greatest entertainer. Jerry Lawler also debuts as a commentator, part-time wrestler, and he is Jeff's manager/mentor - On the RAW following Summer Slam, Shawn Michaels gets suspended by WWF for "unprofessional conduct" after his controversial title loss. HBK comes back in 60 days and brings a brand new IC Title, saying that he is still the rightful champion while Razor Ramon is the recognised title holder for the WWF - On the same show, Ted DiBiase tries to enter the arena but the security agent stop him. DiBiase tried to bribe 1-2-3 Kid to let him in, but Kid laughs at him and refuses - The Steiners Brothers are mentoring The Smoking Gunns and siding with them a lot during multi men matches
WWF Survivor Series 24.11.1993 Boston, MA
1. Shawn Michaels, Diesel, Greg Valentine & Adam Bomb def. Razor Ramon, 1-2-3 Kid, Marty Jannetty & Crush (24 mins) HBK has a lot of issues, as Razor and Jannetty are always on his case, however he finds out that Diesel is just not a bodyguard but can help him a lot in the ring as well. Diesel eliminates Kid and Crush, then helps HBK escape the Razor's Edge and Michaels superkicks Razor for the victory. Both HBK and Diesel survive
2. The Steiner Brothers & The Smoking Gunns def. The Headshrinkers & The Quebecers (w/ Johnny Polo) Not a bad group of talents, considering the state of the division in the first decade of the 90s. Both teams are not in great relationships with one another, but the better co-operation of Gunns and Steiners pays off when Billy Gunn survives as an underdog by pinning Fatu at the end 3. Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga & The Heavenly Bodies (w/ Mr. Fuji and Jim Cornette) def. Randy Savage, Lex Luger & The Rock & Roll Express (20 mins)
Part of this is Bodies vs. R&R and their solid southern style, but the more heat goes on Yokozuna against Savage and Luger, who are trying to save the whole roster from the giant. Luger gets counted out when he tries to bodyslam Yoko outside the ring, but collapses under his weight and can't get up. Savage gets pinned by Yoko thanks to Cornette and Yoko survives
4. Bret Hart, The Undertaker, Tatanka & Rick Martel (w/ Paul Bearer) def. Jerry Lawler, Owen Hart, Jeff Jarrett & Bam Bam Bigelow (w/ Luna Vachon) (28 mins) Bret and Taker go side by side against common enemies here, as they are all determined to make an impact in the WWF. Both Tatanka and Martel get quickly eliminated and it's 4v2. Bret gets an hot tag and pins both Lawler and Bigelow, with Jarrett running away scared of Taker. Bret can't wait to beat his brother Owen, but he hesitates and Taker steals the tag and tombstones Owen. Both Bret and Taker survive, but Bret has mixed feelings about Owen being destroyed by Taker

Post Survivor Series 1993 - Undertaker vs. Bret Hart gets rescheduled for the Royal Rumble after their match on Raw got spoiled a few months before. New WWF commissioner Gorilla Monsoon states that no one can appear ringside during the match, or they will be fired - The go home RAW ends with Paul Bearer laying down on the floor unconscious - Post the PPV, Owen Hart cuts a long promo about his family and fans always undermining him because he's just the little brother, but he's better than Bret and will prove it - Yokozuna and Lex Luger are the two favourites for the Royal Rumble, Randy Savage is on Luger's side but never won it himself and wants to have another go at the WWF Title - On December 2nd's edition of Raw, The Quebecers beat The Steiner Brothers to win the Tag Titles. It's the first title change that takes place on RAW, which is quite important as people can perceive Monday nights as something where interesting stuff might happen
WWF Royal Rumble 22.01.1994 Providence, RI
1. No Disqualification Match: Shawn Michaels (c) (w/ Diesel) def. Marty Jannetty (17 mins) Pretty much a blowoff 2 years after the Rockers' split, as Janetty goes and comes back every few months and they never had a proper PPV match to settle the score. Shawn is also very busy with Razor and carries the fake IC Title, refusing to putting it on the line though. It's a heated brawl and Michaels wins it again, then Diesel finishes Jannetty with the jacknife
2. WWF Tag Titles: The Quebecers (c) (w/ Johnny Polo) def. The Steiner Brothers (12 mins) Natural rematch after the recent title change. Steiners want to get the belts back and get really aggressive, also arguing with The Gunns on the road to the PPV. Quebecers create miscommunications between Steiners and Gunns. Scott gets distracted and tells the Gunns to leave ringside, leaving Rick alone so that the Canadians can beat him
3. WWF IC Title: Razor Ramon (c) def. Jerry Lawler (10 mins) Not lots of options around, but Lawler does have a title shot at a secondary title in him and so there it is, as I don't want him nowhere near to a WWF Title title shot. The angle can easily be around Lawler's ego and insults towards Razor, who is not a real man like him. Razor wins this fairly easily
4. WWF World Title: Bret Hart def. The Undertaker (c) (w/ Paul Bearer) by referee decision (10 mins) I need the title off Taker as he will miss most of 1994 but I don't want him beaten, so... Paul Bearer was laid out by somebody on the Raw before the show and on the PPV he announces that his urn has been stolen. He reveals that the urn is what gave Undertaker his magic powers, so Taker has no chance against Bret. Bret, during his promo, seems dubious and thinks it's just a mind game, but Taker is not himself when he comes to the ring and he can barely stand while Bearer cries and begs him to give up. Taker tries to wrestle, but he's paler than ever and he can't do anything. Taker fights like a "normal man" and every now and then he in on to something, but he fails all the time. Bret doesn't know what to do for minutes, then decides to get this over with and locks him into the sharpshooter. Taker faints and the referee gives Bret the win. Crowd is pi**ed and so is Bret, that grabs the belt and goes away angry. Bearer cries over Undertaker's body, when the lights go out and all the druids debut to carry Taker away...
5. Royal Rumble Match: Owen Hart wins by eliminating Randy Savage All participants: Owen, Savage, Brawler, Powers, Earthquake, Razor, IRS, Yoko, Billy, Bart, Samu, Kwang, Diesel, Backlund, Vigil, Jarrett, Crush, Doink, Bigelow, Mabel, Plugg, Mo, Valentine, Tatanka, Kabuki, Luger, Tenryu, Martel, Fatu and Bomb. Diesel enters at #7 and dominates the match eliminating several opponent, until he gets thrown out by Razor. Razor is #1 and lasts 40 minutes, but gets exhausted and Yoko eliminates him. Jarrett does really well, but he wastes time talking to Lawler and Macho Man gets ride of him. Final four: #13 Luger, #19 Owen, #24 Yoko and #29 Savage. Luger tries to bodyslam Yoko again and eliminate him, but he falls again under his weight and they both end up over the third rope. Owen gets the best of Macho Man thanks to an exposed turnbuckle and shocks the world by winning the Rumble

Post Royal Rumble 1994 - Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart for the WWF Title is set for WrestleMania, storyline based on Owen's lifelong jealousy for his bigger brother. Owen Hart reveals that he was the mastermind behind stealing the urn, as Undertaker is not beatable but he knows he's better than his brother Bret - On a RAW interview, Paul Bearer confirms Undertaker's demise and says that it's all over. Taker will go down as undefeated, but he will never come back - Yokozuna and Lex Luger's war gets bigger and Luger wants to bodyslam Yoko, something that he never manage to do before - Gorilla Monsoon is tired of the Razor Ramon vs. Shawn Michaels controversy, there must be only one IC champion and it will be decided with a Ladder Match - Jeff Jarrett reveals that he has come to the WWF to defeat Randy Savage, going back to their respective fathers' heat in the Tennessee territory - The Steiners have turned on The Smoking Gunns, tired of their failures - Ted DiBiase has returned in the WWF as a manager and wants revenge against 1-2-3 Kid for mocking him when he left
WWF WrestleMania X 20.03.1994 New York, NY
1. Bam Bam Bigelow (w/ Ted DiBiase) def. 1-2-3 Kid (12 mins) DiBiase is back with a new client and wants Kid to pay for his disrespect. Both men could go and would hopefully have a great monster vs. underdog opener, with Bigelow throwing bombs and Kid selling it like crazy. Kid almost gets the ultimate upset, but Bigelow beats him with DiBiase's help
2. The Smoking Gunns (w/ Alundra Blayze) def. The Steiner Brothers (10 mins) Alundra is now managing the Gunns, playing a cowgirl to match their gimmick. Steiners are at the end of their run and now are heels after a few issues with their former allies. This is basically a passing of the torch, sort of, Gunns prevail here in an upset and win the feud
3. Randy Savage def. Jeff Jarrett (w/ Jerry Lawler) (13 mins) As mentioned, this feud goes back to the ICW and CWA issues in the 80s and how Savage made a career despite being an outlaw, while Jarrett was always protected in his career. Wouldn't expect a masterpiece here, but a solid bout with good heat. Savage drops the elbow on both Jarrett and Lawler to win
4. WWF IC Title Ladder Match: Razor Ramon def. Shawn Michaels (c) (w/ Diesel) (20 mins) There can only be one IC champion and the undisputed one will be determined through the first Ladder match in WWF history. Diesel gets kicked out of the match really early, there is literally nothing I'd change from the actual bout as it's an iconic one that still holds up today. Razor gets the belt and wins, but Michaels is the real star after an incredible performance
5. WWF Tag Titles: The Headshrinkers (w/ Afa) def. The Quebecers (c) (w/ Johnny Polo) (8 mins) Any match will not follow the Ladder match properly and it's only right to do this now, as I'm not sure about it to begin with. I want Gunns to go over The Steiners, which leaves two heel teams here fighting for the titles. Wouldn't really be a terrible match, but almost a filler if you will. The samoans win the belts and continue their monster push
6. Yokozuna (w/ Jim Cornette and Mr. Fuji) def. Lex Luger (11 mins) Luger has been trying to bodyslam Yoko for more than 6 months and has his chance now. The whole Lex Express angle didn't go as planned, but Luger can still be a babyface here and help with my goal, which is giving another huge win to Yoko and getting him ready for a title shot. Luger actually manages to bodyslam Yoko in a cool moment, but his strength vanishes when it's time for the torture rack and Yoko wins the match with a good comeback
7. WWF Title: Bret Hart (c) def. Owen Hart. Special Referee: Roddy Piper (20 mins) Brother vs. brother, first time ever, Bret is pissed about Owen's conduct towards Taker and ruining his dream to win the title, Owen has been waiting his whole life to prove himself, Hot Rod is a common friend and the special referee, WWF Title on the line. It might not be the biggest draw, but it's 1994 WWF anyway and all the elements above will ensure a good amount of heat. Plus, the match f*cking ruled and would be a tremendous main event. Bret prevails with a roll up and keeps the belt

Post WrestleMania X - The feud between Bret and Owen is far from over, due to the flashy pin that the Hitman got at 'Mania - After another huge win at 'Mania, Yokozuna gets a WWF Title shot and Owen Hart reveals that Yoko helped him taking Bearer out - Jim Neidhart also comes back to the WWF and sides with Owen, saying that Bret has always been selfish and never cared about him neither - Paul Bearer appears on Raw vowing revenge against Owen Hart and Yokozuna for killing Undertaker, saying that they will regret their actions - Shawn Michaels gets injured and so now he is the one accompanying Diesel to the ring - Roddy Piper arrives to help Randy Savage in his war against Jeff Jarrett and Jerry Lawler - Ted DiBiase also acquires Tatanka's services, as the native american turned heel
WWF King of the Ring 19.06.1994
Baltimore, MD
1. Bam Bam Bigelow (w/ Ted DiBiase) def. Lex Luger (13 mins) Luger turns down DiBiase's offer to join his stable and so DiBiase sets Bigelow on Luger, quite easy angle to build. They are both floating a bit below the main event scene and both want another shot at the top. Bigelow wins thanks to DiBiase's help
2. WWF Tag Titles: Headshrinkers (c) (w/ Afa) def. Smoking Gunns (w/ Alunda Blayze) and Quebecers (w/ Johnny Polo) (12 mins) I wanted to avoid a match like this, but the tag division is quite in a bad shape at the moment. All 3 teams have feuded in the last year or so, Gunns are the only babyface and looking for the big one. Fatu pins Jacques and so the samoans retain the belts
3. Tatanka (w/ Ted DiBiase) def. Bob Holly (6 mins) Again, not a match I'm really happy to book but the roster is not in a good place. Tatanka is with DiBiase and a win will benefit him, Holly was a solid worker at best and so they only go out for a few minutes with Tatanka picking up the win quite easily 4. Randy Savage & Roddy Piper def. Jeff Jarrett & Jerry Lawler (15 mins) As said above, Piper joins Savage in his battle as he is also an outlaw that ended up becoming a legend, comparing to the fortunate ones like Lawler and especially Lawler. Think Maryland would have appreciated this being old school, long heat segment on Macho and hot tag for Piper, who wins by pinning Lawler
5. WWF IC Title: Razor Ramon (c) def. Diesel (w/ Shawn Michaels) by dq (16 mins) HBK wants the IC Title back and, despite being injured, wants Diesel to win it for him. It's the first time Diesel has a single match in a PPV and Razor puts him over with good selling and giving him a nice match. At the end, Michaels is caught helping Diesel and so the challenger gets DQd, which he doesn't appreciate at all
6. King of the Ring Final: Owen Hart (w/ Jim Neidhart) def. 1-2-3 Kid (12 mins) While Owen, after winning the Rumble and main eventing 'Mania, is not an underdog anymore... is opponent is the ultimate underdog, reaching the KOTR final with a lot of impressive and sometimes lucky victories. This would have been a good match and the crowd was behind Kid anyway. Owen wins with the sharpshooter and conquers another title shot 7. WWF World Title: Bret Hart (c) def. Yokozuna (w/ Mr. Fuji and Jim Cornette) (15 mins)
Yoko has defeated Hogan, Savage, Luger etc. and he is still undefeated, so he finally faces Bret here. Bret is still disappointed for the way he won the title and wants to prove his real worth. They go 15 mins and hopefully it can go like 'Mania X, where Bret dragged his opponent for a decent match. Yoko misses the banzai drop and Bret manages to roll him up enough for the count of 3 and retain in a shocking way

Post King of the Ring 1994 - Bret vs. Owen will headline Summer Slam and Gorilla Monsoon wants them in a Steel Cage Match to avoid any interference - On a late June episode of Raw, Paul Bearer reveals that Undertaker's dead body has escaped from his grave... which can only mean Undertaker is alive - Yokozuna dares Undertaker to show up at Summer Slam and challenges him - Davey Boy Smith is back in the WWF as well and he sides with Owen Hart too, talking about Bret getting all the credits after the big Summer Slam '92 main event - Shawn Michaels is back from his injury, but is mad when he finds out that Diesel is the number one contender for the IC Title - Randy Savage announces his in ring retirement, much to the delight of Jerry Lawler, so Macho Man wants his last match to be against Lawler - After losing to the Smoking Gunns on Raw, the Quebecers split up and Pierre turns babyface
WWF Summer Slam 29.08.1994
Chicago, IL
1. Jeff Jarrett def. 1-2-3 Kid (12 mins) Kid defeats Jarrett by countout on Raw and this angers Jarrett, as he cannot be defeated by a rookie. The rematch happens on the PPV and Kid holds his own, but Double J goes over at the end. It is also a way to start the Razor vs. Jarrett program
2. WWF Tag Titles: The Smoking Gunns (w/ Alundra Blayze) def. The Headshrinkers (c) (w/ Afa) (10 mins) It's finally the blowoff, as the Gunns have a one on one title opportunity against The Headshrinkers. Not really a feud that would have set the division on fire, but hopefully the crowd would have got behind the cowboys after their push and appreciate the title change
3. Shawn Michaels def. Pierre Ouellet (13 mins) The wrestler today known as PCO is now a single competitor and here he's challenging Michaels, who takes it lightly and is mad about not getting a title shot, but he's forced to use all of his tricks to beat the strong opponent here
4. WWF IC Title: Razor Ramon (c) def. Diesel (15 mins) Michaels refuses to be in Diesel's corner, so this is a really clean and open match between the two. Diesel dominates thanks to its power, Razor sells really well and comes back. He can't hit the razor's edge, but he uses an inside cradle to pin Diesel. The two shake hands postmatch
5. Lex Luger def. Bam Bam Bigelow (w/ Ted DiBiase and Tatanka) (10 mins) Luger gets a rematch after KOTR and has a new chance to beat DiBiase's top dog. This would be booked as an all out match with zero limbo, just bombs and moves, to make it a tight bout and hide Luger's weaknesses. Luger manages to put Bigelow in the torture rack and gets his revenge
6. Randy Savage def. Jerry Lawler (4 mins) So, Macho Man is retiring and Lawler is making fun of it but he gets beaten down here. Again, zero downtime and stalling, Macho Man just finished Lawler and drops the elbow 3 consecutive times to win his retirement match 7. The Undertaker (w/ Paul Bearer) def. Yokozuna (w/ Mr. Fuji and Jim Cornette) (10 mins)
Taker is back... and he only shows up at the PPV, ready to fight and in full possess of his powers even without the urn (more on that later). Yoko and Taker have a quick and intense match, with Taker beating his opponent clean with the chokeslam and proving he's still the undefeated Deadman
8. WWF Title Steel Cage Match: Bret Hart (c) def. Owen Hart (w/ Davey Boy Smith and Jim Neidhart) (20 mins) I actually didn't enjoy the real match they had at Summer Slam, as it went too long and it wasn't intense enough, so I'd focus on that even though I am aware of the blood limitations and so on. The whole family is in Owen's corner and so it's basically Bret against everybody else. Taker arrives ringside, which sends both Smith and Neidhart away, so the Deadman just watches the end of the match. Bret hesitates, but then he slams the cage door on Owen's head and escapes to retain the title

Post Summer Slam 1994 - On the RAW following the PPV, Undertaker explains that he is no longer dependent from the urn. Bearer always tried to explain his incredible strength as some kind of magic power given to him by the urn, but the reality is that he is a supernatural entity himself and needs no help from anyone. He wants the urn back anyway, just because it means a lot to him - On a RAW in September, Bret & Taker wrestle Owen & Davey in a tag match. Bret steals the urn from Owen and finally wants to give it back to Taker after 8 months, but then he hits him in the head with it, turning heel. Bret, Owen, Davey and Neidhart reform the Hart Foundation as they realize that the WWF put them one against another when they are one family and shall rule the whole company - On a RAW in October, Diesel turns babyface by powerbombing Shawn Michaels when he gets tired of HBK's selfishness. Diesel is thankful for Michaels for bringing him in and giving him a job, but he wants to shine as he knows he can get to the top, while HBK only wants Diesel to do his dirty work - Razor Ramon steps up to help his friend 1-2-3 Kid against Jeff Jarrett, starting a feud between the two - Some debuts in the WWF: Hakushi debuts as a babyface, Heavenly Bodies debut as heels and The Farm Workers (Henry Godwinn and Duke Drose) debut as babyface
WWF Survivor Series 23.11.1994
San Antonio, TX
1. Diesel, Razor Ramon, 1-2-3 Kid & Hakushi def. Bam Bam Bigelow, Shawn Michaels, Jeff Jarrett & Yokozuna (w/ Jim Cornette, Ted DiBiase and Mr. Fuji) (32 mins) A lot of feuds get highlighted in this match, especially HBK/Diesel and Jarrett/Razor. Jarrett beats Kid, then Razor beats Jarrett but Double J distracts Razor causing his elimination. Bigelow gets DQd for his conduct. HBK and Yoko are left with Diesel and HBK yells at Diesel that he will pay for his actions, but Diesel shocks him by slamming Yoko and pinning him (only Taker has ever pinned him). Diesel tells HBK to face him, but Michaels decides to walk away and Diesel survives
2. Cactus Jack, Tracy Smothers, The Rock & Roll Express def. Buddy Landel, Lance Storm, Chris Candido & Brian Lee (w/ Tammy Fytch) (21 mins) WWF and SMW have a partnership going on and so this is a SMW showcase match, mostly because my roster is extremely poor and so it would be a good chance for Cornette to show his players to the whole world. I can't really say how I would book this, as it would be Cornette's choice in my universe, but let's just say that Cactus is the sole survivor and that the babyface prevail here 3. The Headshrinkers & The Heavenly Bodies (w/ Afa) def. The Smoking Gunns & The Farm House (w/ Alundra Blayze) (18 mins) The tag division is not in a good place, not by any shot, but the Bodies here are a bit of fresh air and quality so they are most welcomed. The shortest match of the night for obvious reasons, that would hopefully be decent. The Gunns are by themselves at one point and struggle a lot, but in the end they get defeated as both Fatu and Prichard survive and win the match
4. The Undertaker, Rick Martel, Carl Ouellet & Lex Luger (w/ Paul Bearer) def. Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Davey Boy Smith & Jim Neidhart (29 mins) So the Hart Foundation face Taker, Luger and ironically 2 Canadians that don't share their conduct. The heels work better as a unit, while Taker gets isolated in his corner and Luger helps as much as he can. Taker eliminates Neidhart, Davey and Owen, but then the 3 of them hold him outside the ring and the Deadman gets eliminated by countout. Taker still comes back and tombstones Bret, allowing Luger to put him in the rack and win as the sole survivor

Post Survivor Series 1994 - On a December edition of RAW, Undertaker defeats Yokozuna in a Casket Match and Yoko is gone from TV for a while. Taker also closes Jim Neidhart in the casket so the Anvil is gone as well - Undertaker is now the odds on favourite for the Royal Rumble, even though Owen Hart and Davey Boy Smith won't make it easy for him. Also, Diesel and Shawn Michaels are on a roll and two strong contenders - Lex Luger gets a lot of momentum as number one contender, as he has beaten Bret Hart twice in 1994 - Jim Cornette offers his services to the Hart Foundation and becomes their new manager - Jeff Jarrett is struggling in his feud against Razor Ramon, so he signs Roadie to be his right hand man - The Harris Brothers, accompanied by Uncle Zebekiah, make their way to the WWF as heels
WWF Royal Rumble 22.01.1995 Tampa, FL
1. WWF IC Title: Jeff Jarrett (w/ Roadie) def. Razor Ramon (c) (13 mins)
Jarrett gets under Razor's skin as no one has done before, because of Double J's bullying of 1-2-3 Kid but also his annoying ways. Razor loses his cool on a few occasions and this is the key here, as he tries to hit JJ with his own guitar and, when the referee stops him, he falls victim of a dirty roll up and JJ gets the IC title
2. Bam Bam Bigelow (w/ Ted DiBiase) def. Crush (7 mins) These two big men don't like each other and here they fight to see who's the best, Bigelow wins quite easily. The main point here is that Lawrance Taylor is in the front row, so after the match Bigelow and Taylor get into a physical altercation that involves dozens of referees and security members 3. WWF Tag Titles: The Smoking Gunns (c) (w/ Alundra Blayze) def. The Heavenly Bodies (12 mins)
This feud would have probably helped the Gunns, as so far they have only worked with big men but here's the chance to face an old school team and get more experience. The Bodies get some heat stealing the Gunns' cowboy hats, but at the PPV the champions get the hats back and also retain the titles
4. WWF Title: Bret Hart (c) (w/ Jim Cornette) def. Lex Luger (15 mins) As mentioned above, Bret is really concerned as Luger beat him twice in 1994 and so works in a really careful way. Luger looks like superman and cleans the ring, also from Owen and Davey's attacks, then applies the torture rack but his leg gives up as Bret focused on it during the match. Bret then manages to lock in the sharpshooter and retains the WWF Title
5. Royal Rumble Match: The Undertaker wins by last eliminating Diesel (58 mins) Participants: Taker, Diesel, Brawler, Kama, IRS, Lawler, Holly, Kid, Hakushi, Tatanka, Michaels, Smith, Drose, Doink, Vega, Fatu, Samu, Ron Harris, Don Harris, Owen, Luke, Bundy, Mabel, Butch, Ouellet, HOG, Backlund, Murdoch, Bomb and Martel. #1 is Michaels and he has a great performance. Kid and Hakushi have a great battle in the first part of the match and end up eliminating each other. Smith and Owen work together as a unit against anybody else, until an exausthed Owen gets eliminated by Taker after starting as #6. Final four: #1 HBK, #14 Smith, #21 Taker, #27 Diesel. Taker eliminates Smith as well, so Diesel and HBK work together against the Deadman despite their dislike. HBK tries to hit Diesel from behind, but Diesel knows him and throws him out. Diesel and Taker have a big men fight and Taker prevails

Post Royal Rumble 1995 - Bret Hart vs. Undertaker is confirmed as the WrestleMania main event for the WWF Title - The competitive rivalry between Shawn Michael and Diesel goes on, no hate between the two but Diesel is the babyface on the rise and HBK doesn't appreciate that - Also, HBK has replaced Diesel with the returning Sycho Sid, who now is Michaels' bodyguard - After the Royal Rumble incident, Lawrance Taylor and Bam Bam Bigelow have been feuding in the WWF and all over the news - Lex Luger is still feuding with the Hart Foundation and he particularly blames Davey Boy Smith for costing him the WWF Title - Jeff Jarrett celebrates his IC Title win with a big RAW concert, but Razor Ramon crashes the party and wants revenge - Owen Hart gets two single wins against Bart Gunn and Billy Gunn on RAW
WWF WrestleMania XI 02.04.1995 Hartford, CT
1. Hakushi def. 1-2-3 Kid (12 mins) These two had a good interaction at the Rumble and go at it here, in the closest thing that the WWF could have pulled off to anticipate WCW's cruiserweight boom from 1996. It's face vs face, with Kid not being the underdog for once with the mysterious Hakushi. Close and competitive match, but Hakushi prevails in the end
2. The Harris Brothers (w/ Uncle Zebekiah) def. The Headshrinkers (w/ Afa) (6 mins) The Harris Bros need to be put over as violent badasses and here they squash the Samoans, who are pretty much at the end of their run. Afa takes a bump too and, in just a few minutes the twins manage to look really good and dangerous
3. WWF IC Title: Razor Ramon def. Jeff Jarrett (c) (w/ The Roadie) (13 mins) Razor gets his rematch, after waiting a few months and with Jarrett always getting under his skin. Kid arrives in the middle of the match to neutralize Roadie, so JJ finds himself in trouble. Razor blocks a guitar shot and it's finally him to use it on JJ, to get the win and the title back
4. Diesel (w/ Pamela Anderson) def. Shawn Michaels (w/ Jenna McCarthy and Sycho Sid) (17 mins) As mentioned above, Diesel and Shawn are really competitive and ended up sabotaging each other for the last few months. HBK gets Jenna as his valet for the event and Diesel shocks him by getting Pamela Anderson for a huge pop. HBK also asks Sid not to get involved, as this is personal, and they fight to the limit with Diesel winning with a jackninfe. HBK is too proud to accept a handshake after his loss
5. Davey Boy Smith (w/ Jim Cornette) def. Lex Luger (11 mins) Smith need a good win to be seen as a major star and (spoiler) a title contender, while Luger only has a few months left with the WWF and he's done pretty much all I could do with him. Wouldn't be the greatest match, hopefully a solid bout between two big men with a little of backstory behind the match to help them. Bulldog goes over thanks to Cornette
6. WWF Tag Titles: Owen Hart & Yokozuna (w/ Jim Cornette) def. The Smoking Gunns (c) (w/ Alundra Blayze) (10 mins) Yoko is the mystery partner, announced at the event, as Cornette brings back his old client and adds him to the Hart Foundation. The tag division is still struggling and Owen & Yoko did alright in my book, so let's go with it, also because Bret on top means no space for Owen after their feud. The Gunns fight with pride, but Yoko is too strong and Owen pins Billy to finally win a title
7. Lawrence Taylor (w/ football players) def. Bam Bam Bigelow (w/ Million Dollar Corporation) (12 mins) Taylor has Reggie, Mongo and so on with him, while Bigelow is accompanied by DiBiase, Kama, Tatanka and so on. This can't be the main event, I'm not letting a non wrestler go over in the biggest match of the year, but it was a good use of a celebrity and also a solid match anyway thanks to Bam Bam. I wouldn't change much of it, a bit of smoke and mirrors and Taylor pick up the win here
8. WWF Title: The Undertaker (w/ Paul Bearer) def. Bret Hart (c) (w/ Jim Cornette) (20 mins) This is more than a year in the making, it all started at the Royal Rumble 1995 when Bret Hart won the title without even beating Taker for it. Bret has avoided the Deadman since, but now he's forced to wrestle him and he does a great job as it's a tight match. Davey comes down with the urn, but Taker finally regains possession of it and gives it back to Bearer. A bit later, Taker hits the tombstone and finally gets the title back

Post WrestleMania XI - The In Your House era has begun! Aside from the big 5, the monthly PPVs will be scheduled as a 2 hours event with a reduced price. I won't book them as my top shows, of course, but they will need to be interesting enough for fans to buy them. Things get tricky from now on... - Undertaker is the new WWF champion and his feud with the Hart Foundation is not over by a long shot, as both Owen Hart and Davey Boy Smith claim that Taker never defeated them. Bret Hart wants the belt back within the family - Shawn Michaels has a tantrum after losing to Diesel and challenges him to a tag match with a partner of his choice - Lex Luger gets interviewed as a former football player to comment on Lawrance Taylor beating Bam Bam Bigelow and this reignites his sleepy feud with the Million Dollar Corporation
WWF In Your House 1: Premiere 14.05.1995 Syracuse, NY
1. Bret Hart (w/ Jim Cornette) def. Hakushi (13 mins) Match that actually happened and that was really enjoyable. Bret is almost offended that he has to start back from the opening match after being the champion, but this is also a good test for Hakushi as he proved to be a good competitor. Bret dominates most of the match and wins with the sharpshooter
2. Bam Bam Bigelow, Kama & Tatanka (w/ Ted DiBiase) def. Lex Luger & The Smoking Gunns (w/ Alundra Blayze) (8 mins) This can also be a case of IYH building RAW matches, as I would do Gunns vs. Kama & Tatanka after this PPV and this leads us to that, apart from building Luger vs. Bigelow as well. The heels are a more cohesive unit and win when Kama pins Billy
3. Savio Vega def. Pierre Ouellet (7 mins) Another function of IYH can be to give space to midcarders. Vega has already debuted but hasn't had a single match yet on PPV, so here he has some chance to shine against a good hand like Pierre. Can't give them much time but they can have a nice little sprint, with Vega going over
4. Razor Ramon & Diesel (w/ 1-2-3 Kid) def. Shawn Michaels & Jeff Jarrett (w/ Psycho Sid and Roadie) (12 mins) Tension is building, because Razor picks Diesel as his partner to annoy HBK. Michaels, on the other hand, picks Jarrett to annoy Razor. This pis*es both Kid and Sid off, as they felt they needed to be chosen by their allies. Tight match, Michaels leaves Jarrett by himself and Diesel pins JJ
5. WWF Title: The Undertaker (c) (w/ Paul Bearer) def. Owen Hart (w/ Jim Cornette, Davey Boy Smith and Yokozuna) (14 mins) So Owen gets his shot here and has the whole family in his corner, even though they get ejected quite soon. Owen works on the leg that his brother Bret focused on at 'Mania, but Taker is too strong for him. Even Bret comes to the aisle, but he watches Owen fall victim of the tombstone

Post In Your House 1: Premiere 14.05.1995 - Davey Boy Smith is next in line as the number one contender against the Undertaker, he's still undefeated since his return in 1994 - The King of the Ring tournament takes place: Bret Hart gets to the final by beating Shawn Michaels, who acted like a babyface during the match, while Diesel gets to the final as well after defeating Owen Hart - Shawn Michaels also ends up helping Razor Ramon by taking Jeff Jarrett's guitar away and telling JJ to wrestle the IC champion fair and square. Razor appreciates it and, even though Diesel warns him saying that HBK can't really be trusted, gives him a title shot - Lex Luger wants Bam Bam Bigelow, but Ted DiBiase says he will only face him if he beats all the other members of the Million Dollar Corporation - The Harris Brothers, still undefeated, get a shot at the Tag Team Titles - Hakushi turns heel after teaming with 1-2-3 Kid and Savio Vega against The Hart Foundation and he attacks Vega
WWF King of the Ring 25.06.1995
Philadelphia, PA
1. #1 Contender Match: Jeff Jarrett (w/ The Roadie) def. 1-2-3 Kid (12 mins) Another concept I can try with IYH is contender matches for the next PPV (aside from Rumbles and KOTR winners of course), something that usually happens on RAW as every PPV was 2/3 months away from the previous one. Jarrett and Kid go at it once again, with Jarrett prevailing here by cheating
2. The Smoking Gunns (w/ Alundra Blayze) def. The Farm Workers (6 mins) Not a good match most likely, the only good news here can be Gunns and Henry Godwinn working together before The Godwinns are a thing and so this would hopefully help their chemistry. Gunns win and they want a rematch at the Tag Titles
3. Savio Vega def. Hakushi (8 mins) These two are feuding after Hakushi's turn on Vega and Kid both. Both wrestlers have a style that is different from the usual WWF competitor, I think they would match quite good here with a bit of heat. Vega wins with a flashy pin 4. WWF IC Title: Shawn Michaels (w/ Psycho Sid) def. Razor Ramon (c) (16 mins)
'Mania X was more heated and with a ladder in the middle, here this is a more respectful and technically sound match. HBK plays the heel but we can see that he's close to be a babyface and he also tells Sid to stay at the back, which infuriates Sid. HBK gets an inside cradle to win the title and he shakes Razor's match postmatch
5. Lex Luger def. Tatanka (w/ Million Dollar Corporation) (6 mins) As mentioned above, Luger wants to go through the whole stable before getting his hands on Bigelow. Tatanka is the easiest opponent of the bunch and Luger manages to beat him in a few minutes with the torture rack on the native American
6. WWF Title: The Undertaker (c) (w/ Paul Bearer) def. Davey Boy Smith (w/ Jim Cornette) (14 mins) They wrestled on RAW in 1995 and it was a decent one, Davey is bigger than the Harts and his physique can cause some issues to Taker, but also a different dynamic and fresh match which is good. The whole family gets ejected again and Taker retains with the tombstone
7. WWF Tag Titles: Owen Hart & Yokozuna (c) (w/ Jim Cornette) def. The Harris Brothers (w/ Dutch Mantell) (10 mins) Heels vs. heels, plus monster versus a monster and Owen. Again, not a pairing I'm really happy about but this is what I got. All out, I'd keep this short and hope for a decent outcome. Yoko hits one of the twins with the banzai drop and Owen quickly pins him
8. King of the Ring Final: Bret Hart (w/ Jim Cornette) def. Diesel (15 mins) This match is quite important, not only because it's a KOTR final, but for what happens after a ref bump. Owen, Bulldog and Yoko arrive to help Bret... but Diesel gets some back up in Razor, Kid and shockingly HBK and Sid. A big brawl is taking place ringside, but shockingly Sid slides in the ring and chokeslams Diesel, so that Bret can pin him
