Match observations: WWF returnee Shane Douglas really made a mark for himself virtually in his first appearences in WWF rings. His victory over burly Texan and former WWF World Champion Stan Hansen raised some eyebrows in particular. As the winner of the King of the Ring Tournament, he is entitled to a title shot at the WWF champion at SummerSlam. Hansen is tough, but a win over Yokozuna is considered close to impossible.
