World Wrestling Federation House Show
Date: 2/16/1991
From: London, Ontario, Canada
This show was professionally shot, but never previously shown prior to being uploaded on WWE Vault on February 16th, 2026. One match was shown on Prime Time Wrestling, but as a full show it had never been released. Uploads such as this is why I love WWE Vault.
MATCH #1: THE BARBARIAN VS. KOKO B. WARE
FINISH: Barbarian drops Koko over the top rope throat first to pickup the pin.
Bob’s Take: Koko was great babyface energy and popped the crowd early on with two simple dropkicks to combat the powerful Barbarian. As expected, Barbarian keeps his offense to a slower pace and relies on basic strikes. Koko finally gets momentum after being cutoff several times and hit some compelling offense with a bulldog and missile dropkick. However, Koko gets a little overzealous leading to the finish. Barbarian’s offense was mostly boring, but the quick sprint of offense by Koko was enjoyable.
Match Rating: *1/2
MATCH #2: DEMOLITION CRUSH VS. BUSHWHACKER BUTCH
NOTE: This match had been promoted as being a tag match. It was also aired on Prime Time Wrestling on April 9th and is the only match on the show to be aired on television in any capacity.
FINISH: Late in the match, Crush pulls Butch to the floor, but gets sent into the ring post shoulder first. Butch returns to the ring and wins the match by count-out.
Bob’s Take: I feel like this is a bit bizarre for there to be a singles match between these two especially for the Bushwhackers to not be teaming. I feel like the draw of the Bushwhackers is them as a duo and not seeing only one of them. Now, for longtime readers of the site, I have historically despised the Bushwhackers and I’m not hopeful for this match. While Crush had slower offense, at least he did more moves than what Barbarian did during his match. I’m guessing they didn’t want to job Butch out in a random singles match, but this is just a dull finish to the match.
Match Rating: *
MATCH #3: TED DIBIASE VS. JIMMY SNUKA
NOTE: Snuka actually cuts a pre-match promo noting that DiBiase doesn’t have his bodyguard. Snuka knows where the bodyguard is and calls out Virgil to watch the match, which upsets DiBiase. Virgil gets a good reaction from the crowd.
FINISH: Late in the match, DiBiase tries for a suplex back into the ring from the apron, but Virgil tripped DiBiase and held DiBiase down allowing Snuka to win the match. After the match, Virgil hip tosses DiBiase to the floor much to the delight of the fans.
Bob’s Take: Snuka looks like he had been in his basement for three months straight just coming off a bender. There is a noticeable difference in crowd energy to this match than the other two likely due to the interest in Virgil/DiBiase feud and Snuka still having some value to his name on the undercard. DiBiase is such a pro that he’s able to keep his offense simple, but also be compelling with his movements and taunting Virgil to draw heat. Snuka winning even with the help from Virgil still came across as a major upset. This was a harmless sub-five minute match.
Match Rating: *1/2
MATCH #4: JIM DUGGAN VS. GEN. ADNAN
FINISH: Duggan slams Adnan and delivers a running clothesline to win the match in short time.
Bob’s Take: I could feel despair come over me when Adnan came out as I thought for a moment we were going to get a ten minute filler match to fill time. But, thankfully that is not the case. This match barely went over a minute. All Adnan did was choke Duggan with a towel and beg off. This may be one of the easiest paydays for a worker I’ve ever seen.
Match Rating: DUD
MATCH #5: JAKE ROBERTS VS. RICK MARTEL
FINISH: Late in the match, Roberts is trapped in the ropes, but Martel is stopped by referee from using Arrogance. Roberts breaks free and plants Martel with a DDT to win the match.
Bob’s Take: To think these guys have been feuding since September ’90 shows how different wrestling has become in 2026. It’s obvious there is still crowd interest as it’s the first match that had strong crowd reaction and not just from a cheap pop perspective. This is a heated feud since Martel blinded Roberts and it translates well during the match. I thought the finish was great. It took Roberts literally 45-seconds to recover and pin Martel after hitting the DDT. I wasn’t expecting a clean finish, but I’m glad they went in that direction and still kind of protected Martel with the finish.
Match Rating: **1/4
MATCH #6: THE UNDERTAKER VS. TUGBOAT
FINISH: Undertaker avoids a splash in the corner and hits a top rope elbow drop to win the match.
Bob’s Take: Early on these two had far better pacing than I’d ever expect as they initially had a quick burst of action before Taker slowed down the bout as expected. Actually, the entire match is actually really good pacing. I don’t know what is going on, but this match was quite entertaining and it was less than five minutes. Taker’s character work deserves the praise as his ability to dedicate himself to the deadman character is honestly impressive. I thought this was far better than I ever imagined.
Match Rating: **1/2
MATCH #7: THE BROOKLYN BRAWLER VS. VIRGIL
FINISH: Virgil picks up the win following a powerslam as Brawler came off the ropes.
Bob’s Take: Virgil got a bigger pop for when he got involved in DiBiase’s match earlier in the show, but the crowd clearly supports him being his own man. At this point, Virgil has been wrestling for around five years and still doesn’t have a good looking clothesline. It’s as if he doesn’t follow through with the clothesline. Brawler led Virgil throughout the entire match as he didn’t necessarily hide the communication all that well. As expected, this wasn’t good.
Match Rating: 1/2*
MATCH #8: WWF TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS THE HART FOUNDATION (BRET HART & JIM NEIDHART) VS. POWER & GLORY (PAUL ROMA & HERCULES)
FINISH: Both teams avoid the others respective finishing moves and that leads to them brawling on the floor and the match ending in a double count out. As a result, Hart Foundation retain the titles. After the match, Hart Foundation clear Power & Glory from the ring.
Bob’s Take: Hart gets worked over for an extended time by Power & Glory. The attack isn’t overly entertaining as they keep it to working over the back and it’s a bit repetitive. Neidhart gets the hot tag and cleans house much to the delight of the fans. Neidhart in this role fits him well as the powerhouse force who gets heat for a limited time. The closing two or three minutes were enjoyable, but the finish is a weak one with a double count out.
Match Rating: **
MAIN EVENT: WWF WORLD CHAMPION SGT. SLAUGHTER VS. ULTIMATE WARRIOR
NOTE: Queen Sherri is in Sgt. Slaughter’s corner for the match.
FINISH: Late in the match, Warrior shoulder blocks Slaughter, but knocks the referee down. Warrior hit a second shoulder block and for some reason clotheslines the referee causing the disqualification. The fans seem to be confused by Warrior clotheslining the referee. After the match, Warrior continues to clothesline Slaughter and shoves another referee. WWF officials get in the ring to try and stop Warrior, but they get knocked to the floor. Slaughter escapes and wins by disqualification. Warrior press slams Sherri to end the show.
Bob’s Take: I saw someone on Twitter say that Warrior looked like he was assuming this would never see air because his hair is a dark brown and I can’t get it out of my mind. Warrior hit Slaughter with his helmet and should have been disqualified ten-seconds into the match, but the referee let it slide. Warrior chases Sherri around the ring and actually goes under the ring to continue to chase her. Warrior naturally catches her and takes off a piece of clothing, but got sent into the ring post allowing Slaughter to control the bout. Slaughter doesn’t do much with the advantage, but does get the camel clutch on Warrior briefly. The most impactful spot is a press slam off the top rope by Warrior. Slaughter takes a nice bump out of the corner to the floor, as well. Warrior hit Slaughter with the championship on the floor, but the referee ignored it.
Match Rating: **
Final Thoughts:
From a 2026 mindset, there’s not much value here in an in-ring entertainment aspect. However, I still found myself enjoying it and it very well could be because it’s something that had never been released before. The crowd responded well to mostly everything and their energy enhanced the show. I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that I apparently enjoyed a four minute match between The Undertaker and Tugboat was the match of the night. For a sub-two hour event, it was a decent show and not one that I regret watching. Hopefully WWE Vault continues to upload rare never before seen house shows.
Thanks for reading.
