Things I've always wondered:
Why did the Headshrinkers have to drop the tag titles to HBK and BDC the night before SummerSlam '94? Was it anything more than to make the two of them look better?
Royal Rumble 1994 - Owen & Bret v Quebeckers. This started out as a tag title match before the Quebeckers lost the titles to 123 Kid and Marty Janetty, thus making the match a non-title one. They then won them back the week before the Rumble, making it a title match again. Any reason for the switch?
WrestleMania XIII - Was Sid really not supposed to have kicked out of Hogan's leg-drop, as I've heard rumoured so many times?
From first match to last - how long was SummerSlam 1992? And I don't mean how long was the videotape, I mean does anyone know how long the show lasted? I know some bouts were bonus matches, but at the first match (involving Hacksaw et al) it was beaming of early afternoon sunshine. Come the end of the Bulldog/Bret match - it was pitch black, and in summertime here that doesn't happen till around 10:00-10:30pm in August. I doubt the show was eight hours long but there must be some explanation?
Was Monday Night Raw a 2 hour show when it first started in 1993?
Many thanks if any of you can help with any one or more of those.... Just small things that are bugging me.
