Austin's match with Hart was a big one, and the two of them tore of the house down.

Although, Hart would go on to make Austin submit to end the match, it took everything from Hart to finally make Austin submit and pass out from the pain. Austin and Hart went at it for for 25 minutes, and Austin did everything he could to knock off Hart, but came up just short.
