British Bulldog defeated Diesel by DQ {WWF World Heavyweight Title} (7/10)
Moments - Positives
The most important moment of this event which has been replayed by WWF for years and years is HBK giving up his IC title after being unable to complete against Dean Douglas. This was shortly after HBK was beaten up in a night club and he comes down to the ring gutted with black eyes etc. A truly classic moment. Other key features are Ramon winning the IC title, Goldust's debut and a great encounter between Diesel and Bulldog which leads to a Bret Hart interference.
Moments - Negatives
A few poor matches and I thought there was too much reliance on Razor Ramon. The Mabel / Yokozuna match was too long and the tag-team match could have been better. As with previous In Your House shows, the event seemed quite cheap and poor edited.
Overall Summary
A really good PPV with a underrated main event which showcased Bulldog's ability and potential....too bad he never quite made it. HBK's moment is one of the classic moments in WWF history and Ramon winning the IC title was another big landmark in an otherwise quiet and basic PPV event.
SCORE = 7.5
