[1997-05-19-WWF-Raw] Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels Continued

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Recap of the angle from the previous week, only this time they show the conclusion of the angle so that we see Shawn superkick Bret. You might think this would be good enough for Shawn to let it go, but Shawn did no such thing. Shawn ducking and running from everyone forever before the numbers finally caught up was great stuff. Davey Boy was about to throw Shawn off the stage when Austin made the save with a crutch and a big brawl broke out.

I always liked the sell of the superkick with Bret falling backwards into the wheelchair which topples over. Michaels running for his life is great too as keeps escaping until the Harts finally catch him. Austin actually saves Michaels big time from being tossed off the stage.

Superkick looked really good and Bret took it like a pro. The visual of Davey power lifting Shawn up also was extremely effective and we get a sort of save by Austin. Really loving all of this interaction on this show.

This should have started the show because in the Austin-HBK faceoff earlier they were referencing the hell out of all this.

The post-Raw scene was shown the next weekend on Livewire and Superstars, so fans did have a clue of what happened. And a wild scene it is, pretty reminiscent of the DDP/Savage angle at Slamboree with the hitting-and-running, crutch use, and numbers game.

This is great. I covered my thoughts in the previous week's show. Really hot brawl.
