It has been some time since I have review a Wrestling Pay Per View so since today is Valentine's Day why not review the Pay Per View World Wrestling Federation St. Valentine's Day Massacre: In Your House.Now looking at the event again it was a decent show with the best matches coming at close to the end of the PPV with the two Main Events but not to say all the matches on this card were terrible but let's get on the review.1. Goldust Vs Bluedust now I never wasn't a bad of Goldust so this match was more for a episode of Raw is War so skipping it won't hurt your feelings.Rating 3 out of 102.Bob Holly Vs Al Snow for the WWF Hardcore Championship. I always enjoy hardcore matches during the Attitude Era because they were always promise to be something you'll never forget this match had Al Snow and Bob Holly fight anywhere and everywhere they could even in the banks of the Mississippi River so all in all entertaining matchRating 7 out of 103. Big Boss Man vs Mideon not much to say about this match other then it story line with the Phenom.Rating 6 out of 104. Owen Hart and Jeff Jarrent with Debra vs Mark Henry and D'Lo Brown with Ivory for the WWF Tag Team Championship.This is when the Tag Team Championship had some meaning to them, in my opinion Owen Hart and Jeff Jarrent during this time did the title justice. They work very well as a tag team. Plus this is actually a good match with the climax being a clever finishRating 8 out of 105.Val Venis with Ryan Shamrock vs Ken Shamrock for the WWF Intercontinental with Billy Gunn as the Guest RefereeThis match was a good one to watch from start to finish, Ken and Val worked a good match with Billy as the Referee along with the infamous "Slap Me" quote.6. Kane and Chyna vs Triple H and X-Pac. This match was formed after Chyna left D-X and join the Corporation following by Chyna getting in the middle of the cage match between Kane and Triple H on Raw.This match was a good one as well with both teams having a long history with each other.Rating 8 out of 107. The Rock vs Mankind Last Man Standing Match for the World Wrestling Federation Championship. Now this is where we are getting better because Mankind and The Rock had just come off a I Quit match for the title at the Royal Rumble this one had a lot to live up to and lucky it did, plus the Rock did a little singing since the show was in Nashville, TN the Rock own the crowd before Mankind use his finisher on the Rock. Both men gave us a heck of a battle and didn't let us down.Rating 9 out of 108. Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Mr.McMahon Steel Cage Match. Now here we are at last the main event. This match begin outside the cage as Stone Cold chase and beat McMahon up along with the infamous moment when Austin force McMahon to bounce from the cage to the announce table. Once they got into the ring Austin kept his word on what he would do for Vince McMahon also Vince wasn't going to let Stone Cold get the final word. This is also the debut of Paul "Big Show" Wight as he broke through the ring.Rating 10 out of 10.Overall the show last three matches were the main highlight for me but nevertheless a entertaining show if you like old school wrestling than check this out.I give WWF St.Valentine's Day Massacre In Your House an 7 out of 10Happy Valentine's Day

Well, the two Dusts, Blue and Gold, collided Mankind and the Rock half killed each other, Al Snow and Hardcore Holly brawled into the street and Steve Austin booked himself a title shot at Wrestlemania in this thoroughly entertaining PPV, that turned out to be far better than the Wrestlemania show it was building towards.THe story going in was that Mr McMahon, following his Royal Rumble victory, announced that he would not be cashing in his title shot at Wrestlemania. WWE Commissioner Shawn Michaels then stepped in and gave the title shot to Austin, the runner up in the Royal Rumble. Austin offered to put his title shot on the line for the chance to go one on one with Vince.There was little clue that anything remotely good was going to come out of the night in our first match, which saw the battle between Goldust and The Job Squad's Bluedust. I never liked watching the Blue Meanie character, and was happy, even more than a decade later, to see him lose here in short fashion.This was followed by a nice hardcore match between Al Snow and Hardcore Holly, who were both members of the JOB Squad. Holly and Snow were simply never more entertaining than at this stage in their careers. They both seemed made for cutting tough guy promos, smashing people in the head with stuff and wrestling in freezing water, all of which happens here, and Holly wins the title. Enjoyable spectacle.Next match was another forgettable one with Boss Man taking on Mideon. Mideon had been a hog farmer in a previous gimmick, and here was a particularly useless member of Undertaker's ministry. I've never really had much opinion on him, positive or negative, as a worker. This was a short match, won easily by Boss Man, which was made to set up a Hell in a Cell match between Undertaker and Boss Man at Wrestlemania.Next match saw Owen Hart and Jeff Jarrett retain the tag team titles over Mark Henry and D Lo Brown. This was a match I struggled to pay much attention too, with the grim realisation that just three months later Jarrett was giving a heartfelt and incredibly moving pre-recorded tribute on RAW after Owen had fallen to his death prior to a match in one of the most horrendous tragedies in pro wrestling history.Next match saw Val Venis defeat Ken Shamrock to win the Intercontinental Championship in a decent match with a rather vulgar back story involving Venis making an "adult movie" with Ken's sister Ryan, who was then mooned by Billy Gunn, who was the guest referee. RYan accompanied Venis to ringside, helped him make a ropebreak and then slapped him allowing Venis to get the roll up pin and win the match. Well Ryan was hot and Val's gimmick was a porn star. Didn't require a creative genius to work that storyline out.OK, next match was from the brief period in time where Chyna had joined the Corporation, but Triple H and X-Pac stayed in DX. Chyna got Kane for a tag team partner. I seem to remember Kane had joined the Corporation under threat from McMahon to have him put into a mental asylum, but don't try to follow every angle at this stage in history. You'll either go insane or die laughing. Kane a Chyna win after a chokeslam. Not a terrible match.NExt up was the big WWE title match between the Rock and Mankind. This was the fourth time these two had met for the Championship, with the results reversing each time. To try and settle things once and for all, they faced off here in a Last Man Standing Match. These two were always great together, whether as opponents or later as a tag team, and this was no exception. They have a long, brutal brawl which eventually ends in a double ten count following both men smashing each other with running chairshots simultaneously. So it looked like Mankind would be going to Wrestlemania.Brings us to the main event of the evening which is the official first in ring meeting between Steve Austin and VInce McMahon with the #1 contendership at stake. McMahon gets absolutely pounded, takes one of the funniest bumps of all time, off the top of a cage and onto a table and then has to sit back and watch as his trump card, the Big Show, throws Austin into the cage so hard that the wall Austin lands on comes unstuck and swings him to victory. Finally Austin is going to Wrestlemania!!! But he would not be wrestling Mankind, who lost the WWE Title to the Rock in a ladder match the following night after interference from Big Show. The main event would be Rock vs Austin, and it doesn't get much bigger than that!
