Tatanka vs Bam Bam Bigelow These two would cross paths during the Spring of 1993.It was during an interview with Bam Bam on Superstars in which Sherri would then interrupt to talk about her then foe Luna.Bigelow irate over the interruption began to threaten the Sensational one before Tatanka would come out for the save.Later that same show Bigelow would get his revenge however when they show a downed Native American backstage with Bigelow then cutting off a piece of his hair.Great segment here that showed Bigelow's vicious side. It was at the KOTR that June in which Luna joined with Bam Bam with the big man almost winning the crown thanks to her help but in the end would come up short. This was going to lead to a mixed tag later at SSlam that year against Sherri/Tatanka but Sherri would get axed not long before the show ending those plans.In it's place would be a 6 man tag with Tatanka and the Smokin' Guns defeating Bigelow and the Headshrinkers.This would be the end for these two for now.They would meet up again at the Rumble that January in a match that was supposed to be Tatanka/Borga but when Borga injured his ankle which ended his WWF run in the end,they went with Bigelow. Good choice I might add. Fun little opener here with a hot crowd. They would feud one more time briefly in 95 with the roles reversed this time as at KOTR it was Diesel/Bam Bam defeating Tatanka/Sid in the main event. Overall...Fun little feud here with both guys meshing well.Still a shame we never got that mixed tag at SSlam.

That was a fun segment to watch. Bam Bam was surprisingly agile for a man his size!

Said it many times...Its between Bam Bam & Vader for best big man ever. I enjoyed the Bam Bam/Tatanka stuff back in the day...I still think Vince missed a trick with Bam Bam.

This was a fun feud, Bam Bam and Tatanka worked well together. I liked in 1995, when Tatanka was heel and Bam Bam just turned face, they had a little mini feud again. I kind of like it when guys do this, makes it look like they really hate one another and it doesn't matter who is a good guy and who is a bad guy. Bam Bam was one of my favorite big guys/heavyweights. If I remember correctly, they were starting a run with Bam Bam vs Hogan back in 1987/88. They started the usual pattern of Hogan feuds, the guy befriends Hogan then turns on him. Bam Bam and Hogan were teaming with each other at house shows. If I remember hearing correctly, it was the guys in the locker room who changed the offices minds, basically saying he was too young to be in that position at the time. A Bam Bam vs Hogan feud would have been good. I still say that Bam Bam should have gotten the Mabel push in 1995, Bam Bam vs Diesel would have been much better.

Undertaker vs Diesel The beef between these two would start in late 95 when then Present of the WWF Gorilla Monsoon declared Undertaker the new #1 contender for the WWF Title for the Rumble.Diesel wasn't happy with this to say the least. Prior to the big title match at the event itself, they would pass by each other in the aisle where they were held back by officials. Love Diesel's ''I'm not afraid of the dark'' line here. Taker on this night would not win the big win for the 2nd time as Diesel would interrupt the match which ended with no decisive winner.With this the feud would be set in motion. The following month at IYH Diesel would get his long waited rematch for the title inside the cage against Bret Hart. The Deadman came calling though as near the end of the match he would drag Diesel down to the depths of hell! Great visual here. With this incident the two were hell bent on a collision course at Wrestlemania XII.The build to this one was great with both guys playing mind games with each other.Diesel breaking up Taker's casket, Taker taunting Diesel with the lights flickering and his voice over the PA and the biggest mind game of all having a life like Diesel corpse in a casket! Again great visual here with Diesel selling it to a tee. The match at Mania itself is not only an underrated big man match but his best Mania match during the 90s IMO.Gotta love Diesel's ''I'm the sh** I'm tellin ya'' line as he was entering the ring.In the end Diesel would rest in peace with Taker moving his Mania record to 5-0! Overall...Excellent feud here.Diesel's slow burn back to a heel was well done and them choosing Taker for him to feud with was a good choice.

Diesel was on fire as a tweener during this period. Before his full fledged heel turn on HBK his tweener character was pretty original. A prelude to Austin in some ways.

That was an awesome recap of some quality wrestling. I was a little young at the time and so I never really saw these epic matches at that time.
Great build up, effects, and I'm sure it resulted in a killer match.

About Tatanka vs Bigalow, wasn’t there a promo by Bam Bam that ended with him yelling “I got the last laugh” before showing a piece of Tatanka’s hair?
