What does Mr. Perfect & Yokozuna Have In Common?

[hbkjason]

This fun little bit of trivia just came to mind and it's something I have never thought of before.

Both Mr. Perfect and Yokozuna lost the same championship at the same PPV two years in a row.

Mr. Perfect lost the Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam 90 to Texas Tornado and then to Bret Hart at SummerSlam 91.

Yokozuna lost the WWF Championship to Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania IX and then Bret Hart at WrestleMania X the following year.

The fact Bret Hart took each guys second title makes this bit of trivia even more fun.

Has any other wrestler lost a championship at back to back annual PPVs

Only other one that comes to mind is Razor Ramon. He lost the IC title Jarrett at RR95 and to Goldust at RR96.

Going the other way with it, the Ultimate Warrior won the IC title at back-to-back Summer Slams. He beat Honky Tonk Man for it in 1988 and beat Rick Rude to regain it in 1989.

Austin winning the WWF Title two years in a row at Wrestlemania could count too

The Hart Foundation wrestled the tag team champions at SummerSlam 88, 89, and 90. That's kind of a neat fact too!
