Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Diesel won the Heavyweight Title towards the end of 1994. His first major title defense came at the 1995 "Royal Rumble". Who did he defend the title against?

Answer: Bret Hart

This match was chaotic. Diesel had Powerbombed Bret and as he was going for the pin, Shawn Michaels attacked him. The referee decided to keep the match going. Later on Bret had the Sharpshooter on Diesel when Owen Hart came and attacked him as well. The referee ordered the match to continue.

The match continued for a little while until Owen, Jeff Jarrett, Shawn Michaels, and Bob Backlund came in to attack the two. The match was considered a draw.

2. Who won the "Royal Rumble" of 1995?

Answer: Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels drew number one. British Bulldog drew number two. They both lasted the entire roster of 28 other guys. Bulldog last eliminated Crush. Bulldog clothes-lined Michaels over the top rope. Michaels held on, but for some reason they played Bulldog's music. So of course, Bulldog thought he won and as he celebrated he was knocked off the the apron declaring Michaels the winner.

He was the first wrestler to ever draw the first number and last until the end.

3. Shawn Michaels went on to the 1995 "Wrestlemania" as the challenger for Diesel's belt. Was this the last match of the night?

Answer: No

This was the second to the last match of the night. That night the biggest event of the year was headlined by Bam Bam Bigelow taking on Lawrence Taylor. Lawrence Taylor defeated Bigelow after a second rope elbow to the head.

4. The first ever, "In Your House" Pay Per View, was held on Mother's Day of 1995. What was the first match of that event?

Answer: Bret Hart and Hakushi

Bret Hart and Hakushi opened up the event. Bret Hart came out victorious. He was also scheduled to wrestle Lawler that night as well. He lost that match after an interference by Hakushi. The main event of that evening was Diesel defending the belt against Sid.

5. Bret Hart got his revenge against Jerry Lawler at the 1995 "King of the Ring". What kind of match was this?

Answer: Kiss My Foot Match

Bret won that match and took his boot off and shoved his foot in to Lawler's mouth. That's pretty gross considering that his foot had to be really sweaty and smelly. Mabel won that year's "King of the Ring" by defeating Savio Vega in the finals. He defeated Undertaker as well to make it to the finals.

6. The 1995 "Summerslam" had Razor Ramon and Shawn Michaels wrestling in a Ladder Match. Who was Shawn Michaels originally supposed to wrestle that night?

Answer: Sid

They announced that it would be Shawn Michaels and Sid but then Gorilla Monsoon changed it to the Ladder Match. He said he knew the fans would rather see that match instead of the original signed match. Diesel defended his belt against Mabel that night as well. Undertaker took on Kama in a Casket Match.

7. The September edition of "In Your House" had a Tag Team Match as the main event. It had Diesel and Shawn Michaels taking on Yokozuna and Owen Hart. Which belt was on the line?

Answer: All these belts were on the line

Diesel was the Heavyweight Champion. Shawn Michaels was the Intercontinental Champion. Yoko and Owen were the Tag Team Champions. The stipulation was that if Owen or Yoko pinned either Diesel or Michaels then the match would be over and who ever got the pin would be the champion. So if Owen pinned Michaels, he would win the Intercontinental Title. Owen was "late" to the event and British Bulldog replaced him. Towards the end of the match Owen came out only to get Jackknifed by Diesel. Diesel and Michaels won the belts that night.

8. The October edition of "In Your House" had Diesel defending the Heavyweight title against British Bulldog. Who won that match?

Answer: British Bulldog

The match wasn't anything memorable. Diesel and Bret Hart had got in to a brawl and Diesel got counted out. Bulldog did NOT win the belt that night.

9. The 1995 "Survivor Series" was main evented by Diesel and Bret Hart wrestling in a No Holds Barred Match. Who won this match?

Answer: Bret

Bret regained the title from Diesel. Diesel had put Bret through a table. This was the first time someone got put through a table on a WWF Pay Per View. After the match Diesel Powerbombed Bret twice. This was Diesel's last Heavyweight title reign with the company.

10. The last Pay Per View of the year was another edition of "In Your House". Triple H and Henry Godwinn wrestled in a Hog Pen Match that night. Who was the special referee?

Answer: Hillbilly Jim

They had a hog pen constructed outside of the ring. There were actually live pigs in there a well. Henry Godwin lost that match but was able to bring in Triple H in the slop as well.
