(Bret Hart retained the WWF World Title) Match observations: Boy, DiBiase really did a number on Steve Williams with that chair. Forty stitches and about a gallon of blood - needless to say, Dr. Death is fuming hot at DiBiase. Ring veteran Terry Taylor proved why he definitely is one of the smartest grapplers in the world and probably Ted DiBiase's current biggest asset. Could it be that Marty Jannetty is finally getting the better on his former partner ? Not even a hyperactive Psycho Sid could save Michaels from Jannetty's superkick. After his layoff, Diesel is back and better than ever. He announced he'd be pursuing the WWF World Title currently held by Bret Hart - friendship or not. Bret Hart, however, isn't as concerned about Diesel as he is about the threat of Steve Williams. He's faced Diesel in the past and more than held his own against the big man. Steve Williams, on the other side, is a whole new ballgame for him, and it isn't lost on Bret that Williams elevated himself to one of Japan's top foreigners via his sheer endless arsenal of killer moves. Bret shouldn't worry too much about Williams, though, since his next defense will be against the big 550-pounder, Yokozuna, who nearly squashed the Hitman with his Banzai Drop. Speaking of Dr. Death, WWF Commentator Michaels P.S. Hayes conducted an interview with him to close the program. Williams mocked DiBiase's decision to only have Dean Malenko wrestle submission matches as these are the Shooter's speciality and challenged the MDM to his speciality match - a death match - at King of the Ring.
