Couple notes


Jake Roberts would end his feud with Dick Slater and go on to the WWF after he dropped the belt.

Two things I remember most about Superbrawl 7 was:

Macho Man turned heel and joined the nWo

Jeff Jarrett became a member of the 4 Horsemen by beating Mongo.

#2

I like these threads.

If this is going to become a regular daily thing, Great:)

Can I ask where you source the info from, or do you have an extremely good memory.

I think a lot favourite Matt Hardy moments were all when he was cutting weight to be in the Cruiserweight division. Hell, he even got a singles match at Wrestle freakin Mania out of it with Rey Mysterio.
