The Attitude Era Thread Vol 1

The alleged plan at the time was that it would build to Bulldog winning the title back at the next UK PPV in April. I'm sure Shawn would have found a way to get out of losing it even if he hadn't broken his back.

Without busting out the WON I have to ask if that was the concession made the day of the show to "get the match in the ring" since Shawn pulled rank? Bulldog was dedicating the match to his dying sister.
Hogan didn't fall for Shawn's "You lose first and I'll pay you back" game.

Less than 2 years after Montreal and WWF again blows a contract situation while also letting the talent hold the belt.

I don't remember this at all.

Another of the triggering points for me coming out of Montreal is that "We can't afford you Bret" becomes "We have to pay Shawn to not wrestle to keep him out of WCW because we clearly know he's just exaggerating his injury and he'll jump at the first chance he can" within a matter of months.
