WWF Fully Loaded

WWF Fully Loaded was an annual July pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), a Connecticut-based professional wrestling promotion. First held in 1998, the first edition of Fully Loaded was an In Your House pay-per-view. The 1999 edition was simply named Fully Loaded as WWF dropped the In Your House branding after February 1999. Fully Loaded was held for one more year in 2000. In 2001, the event was renamed as Invasion; but that slot was replaced by the revived Vengeance pay-per-view in 2002.

History

Fully Loaded was first held as an In Your House pay-per-view (PPV) event. In Your House was a series of monthly PPVs first produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) in May 1995. They aired when the promotion was not holding one of its major PPVs and were sold at a lower cost. Fully Loaded: In Your House was the 23rd In Your House event and took place on July 26, 1998, at the Selland Arena in Fresno, California.^[1]

After the In Your House branding was retired following February 1999's St. Valentine's Day Massacre: In Your House,^[2] Fully Loaded branched off as its own PPV that July.^[3] A third event was held in July 2000 which was the final event using the Fully Loaded name.^[4] In 2001, the event was renamed to InVasion, which was held as part of The Invasion storyline between the WWF and The Alliance (consisting of former World Championship Wrestling and Extreme Championship Wrestling talent).^[5] After the Invasion storyline ended, the July slot was then given to Vengeance in 2002, thus Fully Loaded was definitively discontinued.^[6]
