Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which two wrestlers participated in the first Pay Per View Match in 1997?

Answer: Triple H and Goldust

This happened at the 1997 "Royal Rumble". The opening match was Triple H and Goldust. All of these matches took place at that event.

2. Who won the 1997 "Royal Rumble"?

Answer: Stone Cold Steve Austin

Stone Cold had got eliminated by Bret Hart. The referees did not see it. So Stone Cold came back in the ring and eliminated Vader, Undertaker and Bret.

3. In February of 1997, a Pay Per View was held due to the controversial ending to the "Royal Rumble" Match. The main event consisted of four wrestlers. Who were they?

Answer: Bret Hart, Undertaker, Stone Cold, and Vader

Bret Hart won this match and the title belt. Shawn Michaels had gave the title up on an edition of "Raw". Bret, Undertaker, Stone Cold and Vader were the last four people in the "Royal Rumble" Match. The title was given to the winner. Bret Hart lost the title the next night on "Raw" to Sid.

4. Who main evented the 1997 "Wrestlemania"?

Answer: Undertaker and Sid

This was the first time Undertaker main evented "Wrestlemania". He won the title from Sid that night. This wasn't his best match but still cool to see Undertaker standing tall at "Wrestlemania".

5. Who did Bret Hart wrestle at "Wrestlemania"?

Answer: Stone Cold Steve Austin

This was the match of the night. I know that's an opinion but I can bet all fans taking this quiz will agree. This was refereed by Ken Shamrock. This helped make Stone Cold a superstar. He lost the match but didn't say, "I quit!". He passed out due to loss of blood while Bret had him in the Sharpshooter.

6. Triple H won the 1997 "King of the Ring".

Answer: True

Triple H beat Mankind in the finals. He had Pedigreed him through a table. Then he took him to the ring and gave him another one for good measure.

7. Who did Triple H wrestle at "Canadian Stampede"?

Answer: Mankind

There wasn't a winner in this match. They brawled all over the building throughout the Pay Per View.

8. What kind of match did Mankind and Triple H wrestle in at "Summerslam"?

Answer: Steel Cage

Mankind won after an elbow drop off the top of the cage. He was about to win the match, but the crowd kept chanting, "Superfly!". Superfly Jimmy Snuka was Mankind's hero growing up. So naturally he had to jump off the cage as well.

9. What city did the infamous Screw Job occur in?

Answer: Montreal

I have to say this still the most talked about incident in wrestling history. To make a long story short, Vince agreed to have the match end one way with Bret. Bret thought it was sincere. Vince, Shawn Michaels, and a few others all worked together to make sure Bret didn't leave WWE with the title. Shawn Michaels won the belt and was the champion until March of 1998.

10. The final Pay Per View in 1997 happened in December. It was titled "Degeneration X". Who did Shawn Michaels wrestle in the main event?

Answer: Ken Shamrock

Shawn Michaels defeated Shamrock. After the match Owen attacked Shawn by throwing him through a table. They never had a follow up to this feud which is unfortunate. This wraps up the year of 1997. For some reason most people remember the Screw Job more than anything else in 1997. I figured I would refresh your memory.
