Surprise Teams forgettable king tournament

King of the ring feels like a warm up act. For me if it's in the title should be the main event. Like a royal rumble having a championship match after . Some good action and moments. Works badly as a stand alone event really need to be watching, The weeks leading up to this. No real set up of what to expect on the card at the beginning. I know matches needed to change leading into this but felt very thrown together. A few matches and pairing you might not have seen or remember make this one worth a watch.

Trivia
A match between Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels was promoted in the weeks leading up to the event. But the match was cancelled after Hart and Michaels had an altercation backstage. Michaels wrestled Steve Austin instead and Hart did not appear on the show Hart and Michaels would face each other 5 months later at Survivor Series in the infamous "Montreal Screwjob".
