WWE In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede Review
November 1, 2011
By Ricky Dozan
This PPV is fairly old, but one of my personal favourites. It's a good one to check out if you haven't already seen it.
The Godwinns vs The New Blackjacks - Dark Match
A short and harmless match to get the crowd pumped. Nothing special.
2/10
Hunter Hearst Helmsely vs Mankind
One of Mankind's better non-hardcore matches. The match ends in a double count-out. These two carried on battling after the bell. They were seen fighting a few times later in the show too. The whole match felt like an old school brawl from the 80's, complete with having no decisive victor.
6.5/10
Taka Michinouku vs The Great Sasake
The crowd were dead as they had no idea who these two guys were, but after a few high flying spots, they ate this match up. This was an epic light-heavyweight match. Sasake came out on top after a Fire Powerbomb. Shame they dropped the ball with this division though.
7/10
The Undertaker vs Vader - WWF Championship
They kept this one short and sweet, with the match only lasting a little more then 10 minutes. Nothing too mind-blowing here, just a really solid big man match. 'Taker retains the gold after a few chokeslams, with one of the top rope.
6/10
Bret Hart, Owen Hart, British Bulldog, Jim Neidhart and Brian Pillman vs Steve Austin, Ken Shamrock, Goldust and Legion of Doom
Wow. What a main event we had here. The crowd were extremely hot, with most of the crowd rooting on the Harts and company. Everyone in the match got a chance to showcase themselves and you really see all the talent involved in this one. Owen picks up the win when he rolled up Austin. A huge brawl erupted and the Hart Foundation cleans house and celebrates with their family to close the show. Match of the year material right here.
9.5/10
One of the best In Your House PPVs. Not a bad match on the PPV. Every match on the main PPV was atleast good. The crowd were super hot too. We saw a nice mix of matches, varying from a high flying light heavyweight bout, an old school brawl and a big man match. Both thumbs up for me.
