Trivia
- The Intercontinental title match was the first ladder match shown on WWF pay per view.
- The ladder match and the Bret Hart-Owen Hart match are widely regarded as two of the best matches of the decade.
- One rumor that persists regarding the booking plans for this show are that Lex Luger was originally scheduled to win the WWF title here, but jeopardized his prize by rather loudly mentioning the news in a New York City bar in front of a notable New York Post gossip columnist. Upon hearing of this, or so the story goes, Vince McMahon immediately changed the plan to the rather embarassing disqualification finish for Luger. It is true, however, that Luger would never again have the drawing power he did before this show.
