Bret Hart vs Stone Cold Steve Austin
(The build to this match is the same as in real life. Hart returns and believes that Stone Cold is everything that is wrong with the WWF. Austin hates The Hitman and just wants to whup his ass. Bret gets a lucky roll up from a Million Dollar Dream.)
WWF Championship - Jim Cornette banned from ringside:
Vader (c) vs Shawn Michaels
(Shawn Michaels finally gets his rematch against Vader. Vader says he’ll finish HBK for good. Michaels just wants his WWF Championship back. In the interest of fairness, WWF President Gorilla Monsoon has Jim Cornette banned from ringside to allow a clear winner. On the go home episode of Raw, Michaels superkicks Corny Jim and leaves him laying in the ring. The absence of Cornette does not help HBK, which allows Vader to decimate him with a powerbomb and retain the title.)

Corny Jim eventually accepts, against Vader's wishes. On the go home edition of Raw, Vader turns on Cornette and destroys him with three Vader Bombs. This match is an all-out brutal brawl.)
Royal Rumble Match:
The Undertaker (#30) wins by last eliminating Stone Cold Steve Austin (#5)
Royal Rumble Notes:
Crush & Ahmed Johnson start the match at #1 and #2.
Stone Cold Steve Austin eliminates 8 men.
The final four are Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, and The Undertaker.
Stone Cold Steve Austin is eliminated by Bret Hart, but a brawl between Mankind and Sycho Sid happens at ringside, so the referees don't see it. This allows Austin to slide back in and eliminate Bret right in front of the referees.
Shawn Michaels cuts his famous "I’ve lost my smile" promo the next night on Raw after failing to win the Royal Rumble in his hometown. He leaves the WWF for a while.
The Undertaker returns at #30 after an absence of 2 months.
