Yes, this match was pretty good if I remember correctly. I believe at this time Shawn Michaels was in his prime. I was not too thoroughly impressed wwith the British Bulldog in this match.

I believe the basic idea for having Shawn Michaels take home the European Championship and defeat the British Bulldog was because they were planning on returning a few months later to England. The event would feature the REMATCH from One Night Only and the Brittish Bulldog would be given the win, in hopes that him winning and the fans wanting to see him win so badly would increase buys, ratings and al that jazz.

But the the Montreal Screwjob took place and the British Bulldog left the WWF along with Bret and Neidhart.
