WWF In Your House 3

We are live from the Civic Center in Saginaw, Michigan for In Your House 3. Your hosts are Vince McMahon, Jerry "The King" Lawler, and Jim Ross.

The opening bout of the PPV is Savio Vega vs. Waylon Mercy. During the match, Dok Hendrix announces that Owen Hart is not in the building. What will that do for the main event? Is this legit or part of the story? I'm hoping it's the latter. Anyways, Vega hit Mercy with a spinning heel kick for the win.

WWF Interim President Gorilla Monsoon announces that the triple header main event will go on with or without Owen Hart.

Next up is Sycho Sid vs. Henry O. Godwinn. Sid was not happy after being slopped by Godwinn earlier on Superstars. Godwinn retaliated from being Powerbombed on the floor earlier in the event as Godwinn's back was hurt. The match was back-and-forth as Sid would eventually dominate.

Godwinn would hit Sid with the Slop Drop, but Ted DiBiase would prevent him from winning the match. Godwinn would go after DiBiase as DiBiase would trip him up as he ran into the ropes. Sid Powerbombed Godwinn to win the match.

Sid and DiBiase try to slop Godwinn after the match, but Bam Bam Bigelow comes out to make the save. Kama comes out to attack Bigelow and tries to slop Bigelow. However, Godwinn made the save on Bigelow and put the slop bucket on DiBiase's head.

Gorilla Monsoon tells Jim Cornette that either Yokozuna has to defend the WWF Tag Team Championship in a Handicap match or he must find a partner to replace Owen Hart.

Bam Bam Bigelow next takes on The British Bulldog. Jim Cornette is not at ringside in Bulldog's corner as he is shown in the back trying to convince Sid to be Yokozuna's partner later that night. Makes sense since Sid had problems with the Two Dudes with Attitudes earlier this year. Bulldog finishes off Bigelow with the running powerslam to win the match.

Bob Backlund comes out to introduce Dean Douglas for his match against Razor Ramon. I guess since Backlund is an intellectual just like Douglas, he was fit to introduce him. They cut to the back where Jim Cornette is asking King Mabel to be Yokozuna's partner as supposedly Sid said no. Ugh, another King Mabel main event for the second PPV in a row? No thanks!!

The Razor-Douglas match goes back-and-forth when Douglas shoves Razor into the referee, knocking him down. Razor gives the Dean the Razor's Edge, but there is no referee to count the pinfall. The 1-2-3 Kid runs down and for some reason, he counts 1-2-3 (hence the 1-2-3 Kid!).

Razor thinks he's won until he realizes it was the Kid who counted the pin and asked what's he doing here and tells him to get out. The Kid shoves Razor and Razor shoves him back. Douglas rolls him up from behind and holds the tights as the referee counted 3 as Douglas won.

After the match, Razor brings the Kid into the ring and they look to fight until being separated by officials. It's looking a lot like we're going to have a feud between the two as it looks like The 1-2-3 Kid will eventually turn on Razor.

Dok Hendrix is shown in the back interviewing the Two Dudes with Attitudes. After tonight, they'll be the "two chaps with the four straps."

Next up is Bret "The Hitman" Hart taking on Jean-Pierre Lafitte. Hart rips off his own leather jacket off of Lafitte. It was actually a very good match as much as I rip on this as a feud, more for Hart being buried for some reason.

Lafitte missed a flying headbutt. As Hart was lying on the ground, Hart grabbed his legs and put him in the Sharpshooter for the win. Hart finally gets his jacket back. Because of how great this match was, I am starting to be more of a fan of Lafitte as he shows a lot in the match and is an excellent worker of course so is Bret.

Jim Cornette finally got a partner for Yokozuna as it was none other than his own British Bulldog. Duh, why didn't you ask him in the first place? Bulldog will compete in two matches tonight. Apparently, Owen Hart is not here for whatever reason.

It's time for the triple header main event between the Two Dudes with Attitude against Yokozuna and now British Bulldog replacing Owen. The winner of the match, will win whoever's championship that man pins as all three WWF Championships are on the line in case you didn't know or lived under a rock.

Is it just me, or does Diesel's theme sound a little like the theme for Roseanne? It's that harmonica part that really gets me. Late in the match, Shawn Michaels gave Yokozuna Sweet Chin Music to the floor. Bulldog gave Diesel the running powerslam, but Michaels broke up the pin. All of a sudden, Owen Hart emerges from the back to the ring as he's ready to go as he climbs to the top rope.

As he jumps off, Diesel hits him in the gut and then gives him the Jackknife Powerbomb and pins him. The referee counts 3 despite Owen not being officially in the match as the Two Dudes with Attitudes are now WWF World Tag Team Champions in addition to being the World Heavyweight and Intercontinental Champions as they own all three belts; for now.

I'm sure with Owen Hart not being there and then being there not technically in the match will screw Diesel and Michaels out of the Tag Team Titles. I just know it. I hope the WWF lets them have all three titles for a little bit anyways to change things up as they really need it.
