#6 Bret Hart vs. Diesel - 1994
From the moment Kevin Nash debuted for WWE in 1993 as 'Diesel', it was obvious WWE and Vince McMahon had big plans for the seven-footer, more than just the bodyguard of Shawn Michaels. This was Diesel's first big test on a main event level platform, a WWE Championship match with Bret Hart at the King of the Ring.
Shawn Michaels would have a reverse role here as he accompanied Diesel to the ring while Bret Hart brought out his own backup to fend off Michaels in the form of Jim 'The Anvil' Neidhart. They seemed to be going for a whole David vs. Goliath feel as the announcers are really playing up the height difference. Diesel overpowered Hart in the early going, before Hart was eventually able to work on Diesel's legs, bringing him down to his size.
They went back and forth for a while on submissions, but every time Hart locked something in, Diesel powered out. Shawn Michaels successfully interfered several times, while Neidhart had accidentally distracted the referee. After so much back and forth action and legitimately tense moments, the match came to a scrappy finish with Neidhart clotheslining Diesel for a DQ win.
A poor ending but still a very exciting match.
