Great storyline here. A serious passing of the torch from one monster to another. While Yoko was a bigger man, Vader was somehow more menacing. Perhaps it was the Vale Tudo mask. Perhaps it was the brutality. Perhaps the fact that, while he wasn't as big as his predecessor, he was more mobile (at this point, you could even scratch the word "more").
Yoko only had 2 more television in ring appearances with WWF after this. They were writing him off to send him to fatass rehab. This was the moment where it all changed. The point where Vince realized there was such a thing as having someone who was TOO big.
