10 Things You Learn Binge Watching Every WWE Raw From 1993

9. One Street Fight Segment Feels Significant

One segment on the 10 May episode was more like it.

Shawn Michaels and Mr. Perfect were shown brawling out onto the bustling streets of New York City as fans and other onlookers wondered what was happening. This is where Kevin Dunn's now-habitual shaky camera techniques really started. He and his production team deserve a lot of credit for deviating from the norm here.

The guerilla-style filming, the palpable excitement of people who just wanted to see some punches get thrown and the image of Perfect slamming Michaels onto the hood of a nearby car remain powerful. Eric Bischoff can rightly pat himself on the back for what Nitro would do for outside-the-ring action years later, but the WWF beat him to it.

This was akin to that skit in which the Mega-Powers exploded, albeit outside on the streets. It's a significant moment in Raw's history, and was arguably the first time that the program felt like it could be something truly unique on the wrestling landscape.
