Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world

This was my first live show:

WWF @ East Rutherford, NJ - Meadowlands - December 12, 1993 (7,000)
Featured an in-ring promo by Jim Cornette where he insulted the crowd and said Randy Savage's match later in the show vs. Crush would be his last
Owen Hart pinned Bastion Booger at 5:42 with a roll up after Booger missed a splash in the corner
The Headshrinkers defeated Men on a Mission when Samu pinned Mo with a diving headbutt off the top
Rick Martel defeated Virgil at 12:35
Doink the Clown (w/ Dink) pinned Bam Bam Bigelow at 7:28 after Bigelow was distracted by Dink
Randy Savage fought Crush (w/ Mr. Fuji & Jim Cornette) to a double count-out at 16:14
IRS pinned Marty Jannetty at 9:18 with the Write Off clothesline
WWF IC Champion Razor Ramon & the 1-2-3 Kid defeated Johnny Polo (w/ Pierre) & Adam Bomb (w/ Harvey Wippleman) at 10:55 when Razor pinned Bomb with the Razor's Edge after Polo walked out on his partner when Bomb accidentally hit him
Lex Luger pinned Ludvig Borga at 6:42

I also saw this magnificent card:

WWF @ Sayreville, NJ - High School Gym - July 14, 1995
Fundraiser show
Skip defeated Nick Barberry
Jean Pierre Lafitte defeated Aldo Montoya
Adam Bomb defeated Hakushi
Savio Vega defeated King Mabel via disqualification; after the bout, Razor Ramon made the save for Vega

While we're on this morbid track, does anyone remember the reports about a wrestler being on "death watch" shortly following Eddie's death? Benoit makes sense but I remember the report saying that it could theoretically get way more mainstream coverage than Eddie's death, which makes me think it was Kurt Angle.

The reports were vague and weird but I think they came from the usual dirtsheet people. Given the timeframe I must have read about it on 411mania.

Pretty sure it was Kurt, he was in really rough shape for the last year or so of his WWE run. IIRC there was a real sense online that he was on borrowed time once he went to TNA.
