This was pretty cool. Just before Austin really caught fire. HBK and Austin were a great team. The ultimate odd couple but what a team they were.

[playbloxx]

this was the time when you're watchin wrestling and you dont know who to cheer coz there is so much talent...so much ATTITUDE

[aleodawg94]

One of the best tag teams ever to grace any wrestling ring. There may not ever be a tag team like L.O.D.

@el84oro " TRUE!....BUT! Sports Entertaiment it's NOT about performing it's about SELLING! hbk had a 1000 0000 times more athletic ability than Hogan or any other Big Big Man. But more people remember and talk about his Matches with Andre, Warrior and Savage than hbk's 60 minute Iron man match with Bret Hart. Little guys like shawn and bret ALLWAYS out perform the giants. But the BIG MEN Usually Sell. Vince McMann knows this cashes in on it...Nash had the strap for a YEAR hbk didn't.

@LVSWTZ u do make very good points , but there were some big men who could still put on good matches, fans always liked sid, taker and kane have also had amazing matches, so i dnt think being big is a good excuse to execute only two moves, plus for that reason nash was the lowest drawing champion in wwf(e) history. thing wit shawn is he alwways knew how to steal the crowd in matches, and could wrestle a refrigerator and make it watchable, i still think he cud outperform neone in d ring

@el84oro When your a 7ft 300pound Stud and look like Nash did you don't need know shit about wrassiln BIGFOOT JACKKNIFE that's IT Hall was a waste too bad hbk is talented even gifted but too small. He would've done well. but would not been the Show Stopper he was The ROCK and Austin had were just as Gifted but WAAY Bigger with followings that were almost like Hulkamania and The Madness in there primes They took over the top spots within very short time Those two were the Attitude Generation

[el84oro]

@LVSWTZ hmm i feel even when nash was there shawn still shone, cos he had the wwe title in 96 wit nash still around and nash couldnt wrestle for shit, hall was great but never pushed to that extent....as for rock and austin, shawn could have held his own against anyone, and if they had been draw we'd have seen more classic matches. its a shame we neva saw hbk vs thhe people's champ tho

@jmsvful: This was the first of Russo's "wacky tag partners who don't get along" angles.

@ROCKNINJA777: The 1994-1996 period, when the Clique was wreaking havoc, was a TERRIBLE time for WWE financially, since Big Shitty the Promotion Killer couldn't draw at all. There's a story that Diesel once asked Gerald Brisco why he was the lowest-paid WWF World Champion of all time. Brisco told him it was because he was the lowest drawing Champ of all time.

Haha Michaels tryin all that bounce off the ropes to get Hawk off guard, and Hawk just kicks him and press slams him. Classic Hawk

I was wondering why they would give this match for free on RAW. Now I know.
