Survivor Series 1993

Yeah, no problem…grumble grumble.

I have no earthly idea why they messed around with the main event so much that year, although I think they had a rough idea of trying to shake things up for fans or something stupid like that. I might dig through the WON from that period and see if Dave has any insight on it.

(Time passes)

So I checked, and 1993 Dave is, to the say the least, somewhat preoccupied with the Jerry Lawler rape accusations and the steroid indictments, and doesn't have anything to say about the weird substitutions other than noting them week to week. He does note that the 93 Series did the lowest buyrate in WWF history to that point, with 185,000 buys domestic, which today would have Vince McMahon doing cartwheels of joy. Times change indeed.
