On this day in wrestling history…

On October 16, 1988, “The Million Dollar Man,” Ted DiBiase, became the King of the Ring and defeated “Macho Man” Randy Savage via count-out to become champion.

1997 – ECW Queens Show – Bam Bam Bigelow defeated Shane Douglas to win the ECW World Heavyweight Championship.

2000 – Monday Night “RAW” – William Regal defeated Al Snow to win the European Championship.

Editor’s Note: I’m going to try to dig up one of these matches on the WWE Network to watch as my day winds down. Follow Bill Kline on Twitter @RealBillKline or on Facebook
