Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs. Duke "The Dumpster" Droese
This feud started back at the Royal Rumble when they faced each other in a match during the Free For All prior to the PPV where the winner got to enter the Royal Rumble 30th and the loser had to enter first. Hunter Hearst Helmsley used brass knuckles to defeat Duke "The Dumpster" Droese but replay was used to show Helmsley cheating and he was DQ'd as he was forced to enter the Rumble first while Droese got to enter last.
The next weekend on Superstars, Helmsley attacked Droese knocking him out with his own trashcan and then Helmsley cut off Droese's long hair. Also the resident WWF blue blood snob Helmsley detests the garbage man Droese.
Crybaby Match - Razor Ramon vs. The 1-2-3 Kid (w/ Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase)
This stems all the way back to last fall as the former best friends began arguing a lot and botching interfering in each other's matches. The 1-2-3 Kid felt Razor Ramon disrespected him. Despite looking to have things patched up, the Kid was the referee in Razor's match with Sycho Sid when the Kid cost Razor the match and the Kid turned heel and joined forces with the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase.
Razor had been trying for a couple of months to get to the Kid. Then at the Royal Rumble last month, the Kid cost Razor his WWF Intercontinental Championship against Goldust. The Kid would openly mock Razor by calling him a "crybaby" for whining about costing him the match.
The Kid would even bring strollers and a giant baby bottle to the ring with him. A couple of weeks ago on Superstars, Kid attacked Razor with the stroller and then Kid broke one of Jeff Jarrett's guitars over Razor's back as he was about to give Jarrett the Razor's Edge on yesterday's episode of Superstars.
This will be the first ever "Crybaby Match" where the winner puts the loser in a giant diaper after the match.
Yokozuna vs. Davey Boy Smith (w/ Jim Cornette)
In a last-minute match, Yokozuna takes on his former ally Davey Boy Smith as a couple of weeks ago on Raw, the long-awaited babyface turn of Yokozuna finally happened. After months of teasing a face turn, Yokozuna finally turned face after yet costing Camp Cornette another match and Cornette blamed him for the loss. He yelled at Yokozuna and slapped him in the face as Yokozuna had enough and attacked Cornette and even his former allies Davey and Owen Hart.
Yokozuna also had taken a back seat to Camp Cornette's newest addition: the former WCW World Heavyweight Champion Vader.
Winner Gets the WWF Championship Match at WrestleMania XII - Shawn Michaels vs. Owen Hart (w/ Jim Cornette)
Shawn Michaels had been dealing with a real-life attack after he was attacked by several men outside a bar in Syracuse in October. Michaels returned from the attack the following month to compete at the Survivor Series and take on Owen Hart the following night on Raw.
During the match, Owen kicked Michaels in the back of his head with his Enziguri Kick. While it was nothing at first, Shawn collapsed in the middle of the ring to bring an impromptu end to the match. Shawn was even taken out of the ring on a stretcher and taken to the local hospital.
It was revealed that the attack in Syracuse along with the kick to the back of his head caused Michaels to have "Post Concussion Syndrome" and it appeared that his career was in total jeopardy. In January, however, Michaels announced he was returning to the WWF at the Royal Rumble and went on to win the Royal Rumble for the second year in a row and will be facing the WWF Champion at WrestleMania XII.
Owen had been bragging and taking credit for nearly ending Michaels' career. Michaels wanted a piece of Owen to settle the score. However, Michaels would only be able to fight Owen if he put his WrestleMania title shot on the line. Michaels decided that he had no other choice and agreed to do so to get his hands on Owen so the winner of this match will face the WWF Champion in the main event at WrestleMania.
WWF World Heavyweight Championship Steel Cage match - WWF World Heavyweight Champion Bret "The Hitman" Hart vs. Diesel
Bret Hart defends his WWF World Heavyweight Championship against Diesel in a Steel Cage match in the main event. Bret won the title against Diesel in November at the Survivor Series where he ended Diesel's year-long reign as WWF Champion. Diesel was upset over the loss that he attacked Bret and gave him several Jackknife Powerbombs.
Diesel changed his attitude after that loss as he declared that the old "Big Daddy Cool" was back and he was no longer a "Corporate Puppet." This is the fourth time these two locked up for the WWF Championship for the fourth time in the last 20 months.
The first two matches ended in DQ finishes and the last match saw Bret win the Championship in a No DQ match and now a Steel Cage match. Diesel helped Bret retain the title against The Undertaker at the Royal Rumble and again a couple of weeks later on Raw so that he could face Bret instead of The Undertaker.
The winner of this match will face the winner of the Shawn Michaels-Owen Hart match in the main event at WrestleMania 12 for the WWF Title.
