I liked how even though Austin turned at Mania, the following few months he still had heels ways about em until the feud with Owen got underway

It annoys me that the Austin 3:16 shirt they sell nowadays doesn't have the smoking skull on the back like the original.

One night before the Shawn/Bret bathroom brawl in CT... I wonder if Vince asked Bret if he could have the chunk of Shawn's hair. |

WWF was starting to pick up steam here. 1996 and early 1997 was definitely a trying time for the WWF, but they were turning the corner here. Some of Bret's best work. Austin was on the rise. Taker was still over like crazy. Shawn was about to change for the better (at least on screen), the heel role suited him better. Mick was about to get to the 3 faces of Foley which he played to a tee. Good stuff.

Bret knocking of Vinces headset a month later was such an iconic moment
It being in Canada was the icing on the cake
