About this listen
In Episode 2 of Season 3, And Then The Bell Rang turns its attention to one of the most unique and debated Royal Rumbles of the New Generation era as Dangerous Dave and Lex Lloydy revisit Royal Rumble 1995.
Recorded at a time when World Wrestling Federation was searching for its next big identity, this event is remembered for its stripped-down roster, slow-burn pacing, and the bold experiment of having Shawn Michaels enter at number one and go the distance. Dave and Lex break down the psychology of the Rumble match itself, Shawn’s star-making performance, and the controversial finish that saw both Michaels and Bulldog eliminated simultaneously.
The episode also dives into the rest of the card, including Bret Hart vs Diesel for the WWF Championship, the growing tension of the New Generation era, and how Royal Rumble ’95 reflects a company in transition — caught between the excesses of the past and the attitude of what was still to come.
Was Royal Rumble 1995 quietly ahead of its time? Or does it deserve its reputation as one of the most divisive Rumbles ever?
🔔 One ring, thirty men, and a turning point for the WWF — and then… the bell rang.
