This Tuesday in Texas was a special professional wrestling show put on by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). Professional wrestling is like a sports entertainment show where athletes perform matches with storylines. This event was a "pay-per-view" show, which means people had to pay extra to watch it live on TV from their homes. It happened on December 3, 1991, at the Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio, Texas.
This event was a bit of an experiment because most big wrestling shows happen on weekends. Holding it on a Tuesday was unusual. There were five main wrestling matches planned for the show. The most important match was a rematch between two very famous wrestlers: Hulk Hogan and the Undertaker. However, people didn't seem very excited about the show, and it wasn't as popular as the WWF hoped.
What Happened at the Event?
The show featured several exciting matches with some of the biggest stars in the WWF at the time. Here are some of the main results:
Championship Matches
- Bret Hart vs. Skinner: Bret Hart, who was the champion, defended his WWF Intercontinental Championship against Skinner. Bret Hart won the match and kept his title.
- Hulk Hogan vs. The Undertaker: This was the main event of the night and a very important match for the WWF Championship. The Undertaker had recently won the title from Hulk Hogan, so this was Hogan's chance to win it back. Hulk Hogan won this match, becoming the WWF Champion again.
