Its a tape famous for one match and one match only, but what a match it is; Diesel and Shawn Michaels teaming up against Kliq allies Razor Ramon and 1-2-3 Kid (in a match originally aired on the inaugural broadcast of WWF Saturday morning show Mania). The four friends go out determined to silence their critics and put on the best match they possibly can and they succeed beyond all expectations. It is an absolute barnburner, a genuine classic which would be likely be rated 5* if it had taken place on a more significant stage. The rest of the tape is actually pretty decent too, with a shockingly-good Diesel versus Lex Luger match starting things off, and a Hart Family brawl that sees Bret Hart and Davey Boy Smith against Owen Hart and Jim Neidhart worth ten minutes of your time. The rest is filler, but very watchable filler, making this feel like one of the quickest hours of wrestling you will ever watch.

James spent several years wrestling on the British independent circuit, but now prefers to write about the bumps and bruises rather than take any of them.
