[1995-09-18-WWF-Raw] Owen Hart & Yokozuna vs Men on a Mission / Interview: Shawn Michaels & Diesel / Interview: Owen Hart, Yokozuna & Jim Cornette

Talk about it here.

Last few minutes of heel vs heel. Mo does a nice superplex. Owen pins Mo to wrap things up, and it's pretty clear here that the MoM push is over. Mabel would go on to feud with Undertaker, but he's clearly being phased down.

 

Shawn and Diesel have a taped promo hyping In Your House. They weren't aware of it yet, but all the pre-tapes really made the WWF seem stale when everything was live and in front of the crowd on Nitro.

 

After commercial, Owen, Yoko and Cornette are interviewed by Cornette.

Weird to see a heel vs heel tag match in 95 WWF. Cornette cuts a great interview with Vince. Maybe one of his best of the year. President Magilla Gorilla.

[PeteF3]

A face vs. face and heel vs. heel match on one show. Yeah, the WWF was at least attempting to pull out the stops early on in the War. Neat finish as Owen hits Mo with a drop toe hold and Yoko drops a leg, with Owen executing a unique cover as Mabel pratfalls as Yoko trips him while attempting the save.

 

Shawn makes the first nose joke of Owen's WWF career. Two Dudes with Attitudes, baby. Camp Cornette rebuts. Jim stirs shit up by reminding us what happened the last time Shawn & Diesel were a team, and questioning if they value their friendship over their respective titles.
