O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01	Yeah, the good times had passed by, but if I had to pick an IYH as my favourite, it would have to be the one in Februaury of '96. It didn't have a name but the card was: -Razor Ramon defeated The 1-2-3 Kid in a "Crybaby Match" -Jake "The Snake" Roberts defeated Tatanka -Hunter Hearst Helmsley defeated Duke "The Dumpster" Droese -Yokozuna defeated The British Bulldog by disqualification -Shawn Michaels defeated Owen Hart to earn a title shot at the champion at Wrestlemania XII -Bret Hart defeated Diesel in a cage match with help from The Undertaker in defense of his World Title And what is yours?

O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00	Mine is In your House "Mindgames" September 1996 in Philly. The epic Shawn Michaels-Mankind match which was great, excluding the horrible DQ Ending with a Vader run in. And ECW Crashing the party with the Sandman and Tommy Dreamer, and Heyman getting in the Bulldog and Savio Vega's faces. The next night Taz came down and jumped the guard rail with a "Sabu fears Taz" sign and Raw went right to commercial.

Psychopath Registered: Feb. 01	Eh, IYH: Mind Games was just a one match show. Granted, it saved the show in SPADES, but other than that, the card was horrid, and the ECW "invasion" was basically one or two matches, they did nothing but cause mild discomfort instead of hellacious anarchy, and it led to absolutely nothing. But, that Shawn Michaels-Mankind match was some fucking good shit. Did you know that Foley was supposed to win the belt but Vince changed his mind mid match leading to the lame DQ finish? Well, now you do! I wasn't a big fan of the card rageparty mentioned either (February 1996). The OBVIOUS answer is maybe the greatest non-Wrestlemania WWF PPV of all time: Canadian Stampede in July 1997. It was the last WWF IYH 2 hour PPV before "Ground Zero" in September that year became the first 3 hour IYH.(There is something creepy and yet ironic about a PPV named Ground Zero happening in September. Something tells me the WWF won't be bringing THAT name back, and they sure as fuck ain't running it in September if they do, if they have any taste whatsoever.) Infact the Stampede may have been the final IYH, period, but I do remember it having that retarded house background, so it was definitely a IYH. The card was only four matches: HHH-Mankind as the opener (as good an effort they had against each other when the World title WASN'T on the line. Keep in mind HHH's ring work SUCKED then, so this was a surprise at the time) The Great Sasuke v. TAKA!!!! I hate to admit there is a chance I'd become a Puro-head if I ever watched it, but if you ever watch this match, it is impossible not to come away in awe of the greatness of these two. However, the Puro-heads, including the ones on this board, continue to ruin it for me with their incessant retardedness and arrogance over the fact that they watch Puro ergo they are better human beings than us stupid WWF "marks," so I don't care, and I still say FUCK THEM! Love this match though. The Taker-Vader world title match (after Ahmed Johnson let the WWF down again as he was supposed to be the challenger. What a shock! Just as well, Vader got a 10 billion times better match than Johnson could dream of getting out of Taker) A clasic 10 man tag as the main event with the Hart Foundation (Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Bulldog, the Anvil, and Pillman) v, Team USA (Austin, Shamrock, Goldust, and the OLD, I mean, LOD). Keep in mind this was in CALGARY, so the heels got cheered, the faces got booed, (even Austin only got a "mixed" reaction, and not a JR "the Rock is getting a mixed reaction even though somebody just threatened him with a knife" mixed reaction, I mean a "they soooorta booed him but you know they wanted to cheer him" mixed reaction ) and the crowd heat for this 45 minute or so match was tremendous. The wrestling wasn't too shabby either. I know that's hard to believe with Goldust, the LOD and Shamrock involved, but it was definitely one of the best matches of the '90s. I can't say enough about it. So, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Go get a tape of it NOW! Other memorable IYHs: Bad Blood (I don't know if it was a IYH still, but it was only a one match show like Mind Games with the HiTC with HBK-Taker revolutionizing the WWF) IYH: Good Friends, Better Enemies with a HBK-Diesel (Nash) main event IYH: Final Four (again a one match show with the fatal four way for the vacant title that Bret won, beating Austin, Vader and Taker, but also watch a HHH-Rocky Maivia match for the IC title and laugh at how the crowd didn't give a shit about either one of them, while they'd have coronaries if they fought tomorrow) And that's about it because, as a rule, IYH PPVs generally sucked old man nutsack.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01	Yeah I remember the Canadian Stampede. That's where that guy from the crowd poured beer on Austin and he started beating on him. Was that really supposed to happen? And yeah, Badd Blood was an IYH, I saw that banner hanging from the rafters that had the IYH logo on it. Another good IYH that you haven't mentioned is No Way Out of Texas, pretty much the last PPV that I actually have enjoyed 100% in the Attitude chapter. The main event was unbelievable when Austin, Cactus & Chainsaw, & Owen Hart took on Savio, The Outlaws & HHH. Plus there were good midcard matches. One that surprised me was Vader vs. Kane. The only thing it was missing was some bigger names, Michaels and Taker were both missing, that's why most of the matches were Tag Matches and only 2 Titles were on the line.
