love this storyline

 - Next week: Nothing announced.

God, I love this angle! The great thing is how it was all established by the
Bret Hart "doublecross". The "rules" were all established by what happened
to Hart. McMahon can't just fire him or take the title away. He either has
to back someone who can beat Austin (with or without some help from
McMahon), or maneuver Austin into a position where they can "screw" him out
of the title. Along the way we see Austin overcome challengers big and small
and in the process becomes the most popular guy in the WWF since the days of
Bruno Sammartino. I'm not sure if there was ever a stretch in any Hulk Hogan
title reign that was as interesting as what they've done with Austin over
the last month. Popular, yes ... high profile, yes ... but as interesting?
I'm not sure.

The rest of the show was okay. Poor from a wrestling standpoint, though so
much was going on that it was easy to overlook. So many angles started or
changed direction that it'll take the next month to mull them all over.
We'll begin with them next week.
