11 Biggest Untelevised WWE Matches
2. Ric Flair Vs. Bret Hart - Coliseum Video Taping, 12.10.92
Can you believe it? The WWF Championship actually changed hands at a Coliseum Video taping, of all plaes.
There are reportedly a number of reasons why Vince McMahon decided to have his biggest title change hands at an non-televised event. Obviously, the premier belt in the world of wrestling switching during a glorified house show should theoretically boost house show ticket sales. You know, because you never know what will happen at a WWF(E) event...
Secondly, there has been talk that this bout was scheduled to be aired on Prime Time Wrestling, but because the match wasn't up to standards thanks to an inner ear problem that was effecting Flair's balance, it was demoted to a routine Coliseum Video taping - a botched Ultimate Warrior clothesline gave The Nature Boy serious problems, you see, and he wasn't quite feeling himself and needed to get it fixed.
Then, of course, we have the reports that the change was done so suddenly with no build so that certain politicians in the locker room couldn't derail Bret's growing momentum.
Whatever the case may be, The Hitman won his first WWF Championship from Flair after hitting a Sharpshooter.
I'm sure he would have wanted it to be at WrestleMania, but this would have been a truly special moment in front of a Canadian crowd nonetheless.
