Quite possibly one of the most hotly-debated years in pro wrestling, but all for the wrong reasons! Many believe 1995 to be the worst in terms of content, but again this year holds a lot of warm memories for me growing up as a wrestling fan.
WWF seemed to just be trying everything they could to evolve by positioning previous mid-card guys at the top, switching titles, multiple face/heel turns and introducing many, many new names that cluttered the mid- and lower-card. And most interesting/worryingly, having Bret 'Hitman' Hart rooted lower down the roster and working predominantly with newcomers for much of the year.
Face-palms at the ready, let's relive 1995 from a teenage fan's point-of-view!
