On Monday, May 26, 1997, in Evansville, Indiana, World Wrestling Federation (WWF) Tag Team Champions Owen Hart and The British Bulldog Davy Boy Smith, faced the tag team of Shawn Michaels and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. Like many of the matches during mid-1997, this match was pitted as the Hart Foundation (Bret Hart, Own Hart, Brian Pillman, Jim Neidhart, and The British Bulldog) verses everyone else in the WWF. During this time the Hart Foundation held four of the five major WWF Championship titles, setting themselves apart from the rest of the organization. As the lead up to the match showed, Austin and Michaels were unlikely partners but their shared hatred for the Hart Foundation untied them for a common goal.
