Agreed Great Year...most memorable moment for me was at Canadian Stampede when Austin was public enemy number one flipped all the Harts and Canada off so many times and left mid match with injury just to return it was a perfect envirnment for him and after the match when the Harts were celebrating he returned again with a chair and got arrests and as he was leaving in cuffs he flipped off the Harts again.

A must see match if you have never seen it!!!
