4. This Is Your Life, Rock
Date: September 27th If you're looking for unexpected greatness in wrestling history, look no further than this segment here. It was supposed to be just another comedy segment involving two of the best comedic minds in the sport. What it ended up being one of the highest-rated things ever seen in the sport's great history. Both The Rock and Mankind were able to go out there and flex their creative and improvisational muscles in a segment where both men have said absolutely nothing was planned ahead of time. They were going off the top of their heads with everything and they did a fantastic job of doing so. It was a hilarious segment with both men seeming to go out of their way to "break" one another and get them to start laughing. It went on and on and on and on, to the point that Vince McMahon was furious backstage that the segment went on much longer than the allotted time. He probably calmed down a lot when the 8.4 rating came in for the segment, though.
