#2 Shawn Michaels vs. Bret Hart I – 25^th November 1992

Survivor Series ‘92 would also feature a WWE Championship match between the Champion Bret Hart and the Intercontinental Champion Shawn Michaels, in what would be their first PPV meeting.

WWE management decided to put the IC title on Michaels after the British Bulldog was released, due to steroid troubles and the planned IC title match at the event between the Bulldog and the Mountie was cancelled.

Shawn’s IC title was not on the line in this match, and Hart would retain his WWE Championship, after forcing Michaels to tap out to the Sharpshooter. Hart would continue his reign till Wrestlemania, where he would be beaten for the title by Yokozuna.
