The show featured a bunch of traditional Survivor Series matches, the televised in-ring debut of Kane and the return of Stone Cold Steve Austin. Everything that happened on the show, however, would get overshadowed by the WWF Championship main event match; Bret "Hitman" Hart vs Shawn Michaels. Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels rivalry began like any other feud. Michaels defeated Hart at WrestleMania XII back in 96 and when the Hitman returned to TV, he vowed to win back his WWF championship from HBK. As 1997 continued on, Hart and Michaels developed real-life issues with some of these issues making it to TV and things got so bad that both men said they would never lose to one another in the ring (even if the script said otherwise). Hart signed with WCW when Vince McMahon told Bret that he could no longer afford his contract, and so Bret was asked to drop his championship belt to Shawn at Survivor Series in Montreal. Bret refused, so he and McMahon came up with a DQ finish and Hart was expected to drop the belt either on Raw is War the following night or at a different unspecified date. During the main event match at Survivor Series, Vince McMahon ordered the time keeper to ring the bell while Bret was locked in his own finisher, and Bret lost the match even though a different finish was discussed backstage; this event would become known as "The Montreal Screwjob". 00:00 - Intro 01:29 - Heabangers & Blackjacks vs Outlaws & Godwinns 03:25 - Truth Commission vs D.O.A 04:52 - Team USA vs Team Canada 10:15 - Kane vs Mankind 14:22 - The Nation vs L.O.D, Shamrock & Ahmed 18:24 - Owen Hart vs Steve Austin 22:41 - Build-up to The Hitman vs HBK 27:37 - Bret Hart vs Shawn Michaels 32:32 - The Montreal Screwjob 35:39 - Credits #WWF #WWE #WRESTLING
