Grilling JR

Episode 12: Canadian Stampede

On this week's Grilling JR with WWE Hall Of Famer Jim Ross &amp; Conrad Thompson, the subject is WWE's Canadian Stampede! This show is one of the most unique, the most celebrated, and the most critically acclaimed WWE shows of all time! It took place during the 1997 main event run of Bret Hart and his Hart Foundation, which consisted of his brother Owen, his brothers in law Davey Boy Smith and Jim Neidhart, plus Dungeon trainee and Stampede Wrestling alumni, Brian Pillman! They were set to main event this show in Calgary against a makeshift team of babyfaces including the red hot Steve Austin, The Legion Of Doom, Ken Shamrock and Goldust! Hear all about that main event, plus, issues between Bret and Shawn Michaels at that time, the feud and matches between Mankind and Triple H, Undertaker's WWE Championship run and his match against Vader, Taka Michinoku vs. The Great Sasuke, news and notes about the war with WCW at that time, and so much more!
