WWF Unforgiven 1998 April 26th 1998 in Greensboro, North Carolina. The first WWF PPV after the pivotal WrestleMania XIV show, Unforgiven sets the tone for Attitude Era events moving forward.
Stone Cold Steve Austin faces Dude Love in the main event. Not only does Austin have to deal with Mick Foley, but Vince McMahon has promised "something catastrophic" will happen at Unforgiven and Austin thinks McMahon plans on screwing him out of the title. McMahon provides commentary for the Austin vs Dude Love WWF Championship match.
Unforgiven 98 also hosts the very first Inferno Match in WWF history when The Undertaker battles his little brother Kane once again on PPV.
This video is part of the Reliving The War series.

Undertaker flying over that top rope in that inferno match landing on Kane and Vader was so awesome. Then the nice visual of the flames when he does his pose in the ring. Will never forget that and Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 to everyone

Undertaker jumping out of the ring over the flames and the pose after the match was truly an iconic moment of the attitude era...speaking of flames, WWF surely was turning up the heat on WCW

Ridiculous how Luna was only able to beat Sable in this kind of match. Seeing how Luna could actually wrestle and Sable couldn't 🙄

[@jackcarraway4707]

Sable was as over as Austin at this point and it ain't for her wrestling abilities; the main demographic are males aged 18-35. Who do you think that demographic wants to see in her underwear between Sable and Luna?

[@brandocalrissian3294]

She was an actual wrestler who never had any actual females wrestlers on her level to work with in the states. Plus, she had a better body than sable, but sable had the obnoxious fake boobs, no ass whatsoever and a prettier face and look, so of course she got the push.

[@Thor-Orion]

Luna had like 15-20 years in the ring by this point. Disgraceful how she was treated. If you see her back in the early 80’s before Kevin Sullivan shaves her head she was actually really pretty, too.

[@CyberJawa1986]

@@Thor-Orion what was really lame during Luna’s and later Jackie’s feuds with Sable, they can have matches with men (Luna’s feuds with Sable and vs a jobber in 98 and Gilberg in 99), matches with other women (Jackie feud with Sable & had great matches with Luna and Starla aka Molly Holly), so they really tried selling Jackie and Luna as experienced, tough as nails veterans even though once with Sable she could throw them around

[@johnlucas1543]

Starting off with the Nation beat not the Kane theme as expected! NICE TOUCH! I play those Nation/Rock themes ALL THE TIME. I am in total agreement with you on their Certified Banger status. Jim Johnston outdid himself when he made those Nation themes.
