5 biggest WWE moments that took place inside the Madison Square Garden

#4: The MSG Incident

The Kliq broke kayfabe in 1996 inside Madison Square Garden.

You know a moment in WWE is big when it's named after the arena it took place in. For those of you who may not know, the MSG Incident involved the Kliq, a group of friends consisting of Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall.

When the latter two were set to leave the WWF for WCW in 1996, the Kliq decided to share the ring one final time, embracing as friends inside the World's Most Famous Arena. The only problem was that whilst Michaels was a face, the rest were heels, and seeing the then-WWF Champion mix with these bad guys broke kayfabe.

With Hall and Nash gone, and Michaels the top star, the blame and punishment fell on Triple H, who had his King of the Ring victory pushed back for an entire year. In his place, it would be 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin who was crowned king in 1996.

As most fans know at this point, Austin's victory speech would include the first mention of 'Austin 3:16', which would go on to become one of the most iconic lines in wrestling history.
