The House Show 20 - WWF No Way Out of Texas: In Your House
The Mad Libs of pay per views! Throw people together. Throw matches together. Give me two nouns. This is an odd yet interesting show taking place right in between the Royal Rumble and next month's WrestleMania at which Stone Cold Steve Austin won his first WWF World title.
This event took place February 15, 1998 at the Compaq Center in Houston, Texas in front of over 16,000 fans. Stone Cold is the biggest thing in wrestling, followed closely by D-Generation X, and you should hear the ovation for Sable. But one person is missing. Shawn Michaels was injured "training" (or during his Casket Match at the Royal Rumble) and won't be wrestling tonight. Who is a big enough star to take the place of the current WWF champion?

Your favorite wrestling podcast hosts deep dive into every match. Kevin gets confused. Count the Pantera references! Where should announcers draw the line? Who got their NWA peanut butter onto my WWF chocolate? What does attrition mean? And does this show feature the worst match in the entire series?

- The Headbangers vs. The Artist Formerly Known as Goldust (with Luna) and "Marvelous" Marc Mero (with Sable).
- Taka Michinoku (WWF Light Heavyweight champion) vs. Pantera.
