Did You Know................
Vader was scheudled to win the WWF Heavyweight title off Shawn Michaels at Survivor Series 1996. Vader was meant to feud with Michaels from SummerSlam to Survivor Series but Micheals moaned about how stiff Vader worked and demanded that he not loose to Vader. Vader was demoted to a tag match and Michaels ended up loosing the belt to Psycho Sid who Vince thought would be a good replacement for Vader since he was entremely over with the crowd!!

Yup. Cornette mentions this in the Timeline: History of WWF 1997 DVD. ]
Did you know that the only reason that they had Sid win at Survivor Series was so they could have Shawn win the belt back in his hometown at the Rumble, and use that to try to draw a record-setting number of fans?
