Title change

By Scott Keith on August 19, 2019

Nail your colours to the metaphorical mast :

Leaving aside anything to do with Benoit, which title change (any title) had you marking out the hardest?

Personally, I still can’t go past Steamboat getting his vengeance over Savage…

I nearly jumped out of my seat when Demolition won the tag titles from Strike Force at WM4. Plus that one was closed circuit at the Coliseum in Vancouver at the time and EVERYONE was cheering for Demolition in that match. I'd probably say Steamboat but we didn't go to WM3's closed circuit showing for whatever reason, so I didn't see it until the tape came out.
Story time! I've probably told this one before, but there's first-time readers everywhere. So Steamboat v. Savage was actually the impetus for us to switch from Beta to VHS. We had a Betamax player from, like, 1978 that we used as our VCR and it was getting questionable, but once WM3 came out in the video stores, my dad got super pissed that there were only 1 or 2 Beta copies available to rent and a bunch of VHS. So we went to Sears that very night, bought a brand new VHS recorder, and then returned to rent Wrestlemania as the first thing we watched on it. And in fact I ended up taking that VCR with me when I moved a few years later and used it as my dubbing deck all the way until about 2005, when I copied my massive wrestling tape collection over to digital formats and then chucked the entire thing in a dumpster. Frankly had I known that the WWE Network would be a thing, I wouldn't have bothered even doing that.
