*SPOILERS*
This one was highly entertaining, if not pointless. It's as though nothing was settled and the fans weren't satisfied, so they tacked "Tuesday in Texas" on to make us happy.
The opening match had its moments, like Rowdy Roddy Piper getting a great push by eliminating the Warlord. Once again, the British Bulldog got the Survivor Series shaft. And I was thoroughly dissatisfied with the ending. Imagine if they had let the match run its course and we got treated to a 45-minute marathon, like in the past? Ric Flair and Bret Hart could have put on a real show at the end of it.
Hacksaw's team vs. Mustafa's team: I liked watching good, popular wrestlers who had mediocre careers (Duggan, Slaughter, Tito Santana and Kerry von Erich) dominate a group of washed-up jobbers. This was Skinner's first pay-per-view, and I think he will one day get cult status for his Brooklyn Brawler-like WWF career. In one vignet, he actually said "I've won more than fifty percent of my WWF matches."
The Hogan-Undertaker match was just about the most boring main event ever.
As for the last match, the Big Bossman got the shaft, but I liked watching Earthquake stand up for Typhoon and walk out of the match. Bossman stopping IRS from fleeing was great. Giving the Legion of Doom and Big Bossman a post-match celebration was a fine ending to an entertaining, adequate pay-per-view.
