In Your House: International Incident

In Your House, and the WWE in general, found itself in a real rut as this PPV came around. The WWE was trying their best with what they had. Shawn Michaels work in this period was amazing, though a majority of the wrestling public didn't care. Over in WCW Hogan, Nash and Hall had just formed the NWO. They were missing Bret Hart and the Ultimate Warrior's brief second run with the company was over.

The night kicked off with The Body Donnas defeating the Smoking Gunns in a passable tag match. Not much to say here, Zip pinned Bart tow wrap things up.

The next match was nothing to write home about either as Mankind defeated Henry Godwinn, who had a very poor singles record in the WWE at this point. Godwinn got his share of hits in before Mankind got in the mandible claw to wrap up the match.

Next we had emerging megastar Steve Austin continuing his rivalry with Marc Mero with an impressive victory. This was much better than their previous PPV matches, but still not all that great. Austin won with a Stone Cold stunner.

Next up we saw the Undertaker taking revenge on Goldust for his loss in a casket match at In Your House: Beware of the Dog, with an decisive showing here. But his moment was ruined by Mankind, who interfered in the match, attacking the Undertaker, giving the dead man a DQ victory but leaving him bruised and battered. Discerning viewers could sense a big match coming up for Summerslam.

Tis led us into the Main Event, a continuation of Shawn Michaels rivalry with Jim Cornette's stable of monsters. And it was Cornette's team of Vader, British Bulldog and Owen Hart getting the win over SHawn Michaels, Sycho Sid and Ahmed Johnson. Sid was a last minute inclusion after The Ultimate Warrior pulled out of the event. This was an entertaining six man tag match, which ended with Vader delivering a devastating Vader bomb on Michaels to get the three count. Wow, I'd like to see those two guys in a singles match in the near future.

So there you have it, if nothing else the 9th In Your House set up Summerslam well, gave the fans some new match ups and some of the matches were OK. An inoffensive, but instantly forgettable PPV event.
