Watching the Monday Night War for 12/9/96 on WWE 24/7 and seeing an ad for this show reminded me of something I wanted to ask the crowd here:

 

The main event for this show is Sid vs Bret Hart for the title, but the name of the show would suggest that somehow Vader was supposed to be involved. Was this orignally planned to feature Vader or is that just one of those wacky WWF things?

I think the original plan for Survivor Series was for Vader to beat Shawn Michaels for the WWF title and make his first major title defense on this show. I think part of the problem was Shawn insisting on dropping the title to Sid instead of Vader, but Vince McMahon was also rapidly losing faith in Vader by this time, particularly as the SummerSlam buyrate that year was very disappointing.
