From Lara's Vast Archives: Spot or Event of the Week, WEEK #4
Hello once again. Sorry for the big delay between Week 3 and now I just never got around to doing it but here I am once again with a new Event of the week for you all.


This week we go back to 1998, the date December 29th (The air date Jan 4th 1999), the location: Worcester, MA. It was such an important event that even rival Bischoff felt the need to mention it on his WCW Nitro Show. That's right it was the night Mick Foley won the World Wrestling Federation championship. I'm pretty sure you all know the storyline. Coming off the huge Rock heel turn at Survivor 98 and their battle Rock Bottom which saw Mick Foley being robbed of the title due to a technicality (Rock passed out, he did not submit thus McMahon ruled that Rock retained). Also during this period we saw mick Foley become aligned with those loveable Degenerates. So we go to the match Mankind accompanied to the ring by DX vs The Rock accompanied by The entire Corporation including Vince and Shane. Jerry Lawler and Micheal Cole are your commentators. We go now to the end of Rock vs Mankind for the WWF Title on Raw.

Only thing I didn't like about the win is how Austin pretty much won it for Foley

but still an awesome night.

Thing is, the pops were all like that back then. Maybe not as big but still pretty massive. Just goes to show really.

Great video, got a couple of questions on it tho.

- Was this supposed to be a lumberjack match or something? With DX and the Corporation out there that's pretty much what it was. Did they all come out at the beginning or did they show up during the match?
-Why was the Rock in street clothes?
-Whose side was Kane on? He seemed to be standing near Vince, but I don't remember him being part of the Corporation (though my memory of that time is pretty hazy.)
-Does anyone have the whole match available? I'd love to see the rest of it.
-Why was Shane in a ref shirt?

1- I think that DX came out to 'even the numbers' seeing as Rock had the Corporation on his side. Mankind and DX had been getting on ok during the recent weeks

2- It was just his attire he wore at the time

3- Corporation. Kane joined them for awhile (I think)

4- Check the media topic

5- I think he was going to be ref or something and Linda over turned it (Cant really remember)

Yeah no doubt.

Holy shit.


I think this should prove beyond all doubts that as popular as The Rock was during his prime (2000), it simply does not compare to that of Austin's.

That Rock wrestling attire is my all time favorite in all wrestling.

It spoke volumes to how much of an ass The Rock was...to actually wrestle in training clothes.

thats because wrestling fans were younge and more naive, which is a good thing.

I get so shitty with how ppl dont cheer and that anymore, instead they say crap like "thats good that he won, he deserves a push". All the mystic from wrestling is lost now.

People who talk like they are actually "in" the wrestling scene really piss me off
