	WWF WrestleMania VIII Classic Review
		The match lasted the proverbial cup of coffee, with Skinner getting 90% of the offence in, hitting Hart was a shoulder breaker and a reverse DDT, before Skinner threw Hart over the top rope, only for him to reverse (ala Shawn Michaels at the 1996 Royal Rumble), and roll up Skinner for the duke.
		WrestleMania VIII was billed as having a double main event, of Hulk Hogan versus Sid Justice, and Ric Flair versus Randy Savage.
		That said, the pay-per-view buy rate for WrestleMania VIII was significantly down from the previous years’, pulling only a 2.3, for around 920,000 buys, contrasted with the previous years’ buy rate of 2.8, for 1,120,000 buys.

	"History of Stonecold Steve Austin"
		He also holds the Royal Rumble title from 1998 and the King of the Ring from 1996.Earlier in his wrestling career, he won both titles in the WCW that included th TV, tag and U.S. belts.

		The driver knew that he or she couldn't beat him on the mat, so he or she took an unsuspecting Austin out with a car on that unfortunate night.
