WWF Tag Team Classic: The Hart Foundation vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin’s Team at Canadian Stampede [Videos]
Few professional wrestling matches in WWF history captured the power of a hometown crowd quite like the ten-man tag team main event at In Your House: Canadian Stampede, on July 6, 1997. Held in the red-hot environment of Calgary's Saddledome, the night felt less like a typical pay-per-view and more like a national rally.
Treated
as conquering legends the instant they emerged from behind the curtain, Bret "Hitman" Hart, WWF Intercontinental Champion Owen Hart, WWF European Champion British Bulldog (Davey Boy Smith) with his wife "Mrs. Calgary" Diana Hart Smith, Jim "the Anvil" Neidhart, and the ever-unpredictable
Brian Pillman were buoyed by an audience that was fully invested.
Opposing them were the rebellious "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, the no-nonsense Ken Shamrock, the bizarre and unsettling Goldust, and the intimidating powerhouse duo of The Legion of Doom. It was a clash of national identities, philosophies, and fan allegiances, colliding in one of the loudest and most unforgettable atmospheres the WWF ever produced.
"What a match this has been. What an unbelievable partisan crowd, J.R., we are witnessing here live tonight. I've never experienced anything like it.”
- Vince McMahon
“I don’t think I’ve ever been, in my twenty-five years, feeling anything that we’re feeling here, the genuine enthusiasm!”
- Jim Ross
