The Jake/Earthquake feud started on the April 6, 1991 episode of Superstars. Jake had just finished a "squash match" and was leaving the ring with Damian as Earthquake was headed down the aisle for his match. Earthquake was scared of Damian, and Jake taunted him with the snake. On the April 27, 1991 episode of Superstars Jake and Earthquake were supposed to have a match, but that was where Earthquake tied Jake in the ropes grabbed Damian, and did the Earthquake sit down squash on Damian in the green bag. (Bruce Prichard on his podcast said it was ground beef in pantyhose to make it look like a snake). On the episode of Superstars they did not show Earthquake "squashing Damian" they cut to the event center and Sean Mooney's reaction. They did however show him actually "squashing Damian on the April 30 episode of Primetime. Then on the May 14 episode of Primetime Earthquake was a guest in the studio, and he brought out his "Quakeburgers" which just so happened to be Damian. Jake and Earthquake never had a blow off feud. Earthquake ended up attacking Andre the Giant after Andre told Jimmy Hart no because Jimmy wanted to manage Andre. There was a six-man tag on Superstars with Earthquake and the Nasty Boys against Tugboat and the Bushwhackers. Tugboat would turn on the Bushwhackers and become Typhoon, and tag with Earthquake becoming the Natural Disasters. They would take on the Bushwhackers (with Andre in their corner) at SummerSlam '91. Jake ended up "helping" the Warrior see the darkside in Warrior's feud against the Undertaker. Each week Jake would have Warrior do different things like be locked back in the casket the Undertaker locked him in, and bury him up to his head in the dirt. On the final test Jake would lock Warrior in a room with a bunch of snakes. Warrior would open a box, and a cobra would bite him in the face. Jake wouldn't let Warrior out of the room. Warrior finally busts out of the room, and when he looks up he sees Jake and standing next to him is the Undertaker and Paul Bearer officially turning Jake heel. Jake has said in interviews he was supposed to have a feud with Warrior that would be blown off at WrestleMania VIII. But of course Warrior held up Vince McMahon for more money or he wouldn't do the match with Hulk Hogan against Sgt. Slaughter, Gen. Adnan, and Col. Mustafa at SummerSlam '91 so after the match Vince gave him his money then fired him. Jake would go on to put a cobra in a wedding present for Elizabeth which in turn started a feud with him and Randy Savage. And the Superstars before Survivor Series '91 is when Jake had the cobra bite Savage's arm. Sorry for the whole detailed explanation of the 1991 WWF storyline lol. One thing just leads to another.

Thanks. As I was reading it, it all seemed to fall back into place for me and I started to remember it all. I was actually at SummerSlam 91 (even made it on camera) you can go back and check the episode of Federation Nation where I talk about it. Thanks again for all the info, it reminded me of quite a bit of it.

@@CollectorsEntertainmentNetwork No problem! I remember so much of this era because I started watch WWF around March of 1991 so a lot of these storylines I remember so well because they made such an impact! Love the channel also!! Looking forward to seeing the WrestleMania VII program video!!

[@CollectorsEntertainmentNetwork]

@@Dj0287 I know how you feel. I could probably do the same for the 86-88 years. 86 was the year I really started watching and by 87 I knew everything going on.

[@Dj0287]

@@CollectorsEntertainmentNetwork By 91 you were older, and wasn't really paying as much attention as you were back between 86-88? I wish I would have got into WWF in the late 80s. I got into it when it was on it's decline. By 94-95 it was terrible, but I stuck with it, and then the attitude era began around 97-98, and it was great again!

[@CollectorsEntertainmentNetwork]

Yeah by 91 I was 14, and it’s not that I wasn’t keeping up with it, as is evident that I went to SummerSlam 91 and was still getting all the magazines. It’s just that I started to have other interests as well. From like ages 9 to 12 (86-89) my whole life was WWF.
