00:00The World Wrestling Federation, for over 50 years the revolutionary force in sports entertainment.
00:10Tonight, the Intercontinental title is on the line.
00:16The Dean had a proverbial cup of coffee as champion, backing into the title and in your house.
00:23Can the 15 minute chump take the gold back from the first time four time champ?
00:30And, two weeks ago at the Survivor Series, Sid's cheating ways helped the kid eliminate Marty Jannetty in the underdogs match.
00:39The kid was proclaimed the sole survivor.
00:43The following night, Jannetty confronted the kid, but was blindsided by his domented protector.
00:50Marty wants the kid, but first he'll have to get through his psychotic sentry, Psycho Sid.
00:57See Marty, you've had to learn the hard way, haven't you?
01:00You messed with the kid, you had to answer to me.
01:04I may not be the biggest, I may not be the baddest, but I'm gonna light you up tonight on Monday Night Raw.
01:11Plus, alarming comments from the personal physician of Shawn Michaels, Dr. Jeffrey Unger.
01:18Shawn is simply not progressing very well neurologically.
01:27He's in a lot of pain.

02:12Welcome back, everybody, to the Squared Circle for action tonight on Raw.
02:13I don't know if you went out to lunch to meet along with Terry The King Lawler.
02:14Yes, Bob's Quack Quack Holly.
02:15One-on-one with a man who could very well be the next World Wrestling Federation champion.
02:16That's right.
02:17You're talking about the British Bulldog.
02:18You know, just like Wreck the Hitman Hart said here last week on Brother Love's show,
02:19it's a dog-eat-dog world.
02:20And tonight, poor Bob Holly's wearing his own underwear.
02:21Is that right?
02:22A lot of questions.
02:23There's going to be a lot of questions.
02:24We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:25We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:26We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:27We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:28How big?
02:29I can't tell you, but it's huge.
02:30Action and surprises, Lord, tonight on Raw.
02:31Here we go.
02:32And here comes the British Bulldog.
02:33Well, one surprise for the British Bulldog.
02:34And you know, just like Wreck the Hitman Hart said here last week on Brother Love's show,
02:35it's a dog-eat-dog world.
02:36And tonight, poor Bob Holly's wearing his own underwear.
02:37Is that right?
02:38A lot of questions.
02:39There's going to be a lot of questions.
02:40We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:41We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:42We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:43We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:44We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:45We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:46We're going to have a lot of questions.
02:58I hope I don't see tonight, McMahon, is the British Bulldog taking Bob Holly lightly.
02:59He can't afford to be overconfident.
03:00He's got the big match coming up with Bret Hart at In Your House, but Bob Holly, boy,
03:01on the other hand, everybody knows he's not a very good race car driver, but he'll take
03:02a chance, like, in a demolition derby.
03:03Bob Holly against the British Bulldog.
03:04And he could very well look for an upset here in this matchup to start things off here tonight
03:05on Raw.
03:06Although the powerhouse there, British Bulldog asserting himself.
03:07Bob Holly would be wise not to attempt a rematch.
03:08He's got a chance.
03:09He's got a chance.
03:10He's got a chance.
03:11He's got a chance.
03:12He's got a chance.
03:13He's got a chance.
03:14He's got a chance.
03:15matchup, to start things off here tonight on Raw.
03:23Although the powerhouse there, British Bulldog asserting himself.
03:26Bob Holly would be wise not to attempt a match-power with the British Bulldog, and the same could
03:30be true of Bret the Hitman Hart.
03:33And speaking of Bret Hart, obviously, the Bulldog has had the Hitman's number for a
03:36long time.
03:37More on that later on.
03:38More on that later on.
03:39Look at this move by Bob Holly, a boot to the midsection.
03:42Setting up the British Bulldog for the ride.
03:44Off the rope, over the head, nicely done.
03:46And Bob Holly in the upset mode, look at this, big body slam.
03:50I hope Jim Cornette- Wow, look at that.
03:52Has not let the Bulldog get overconfident.
03:55Overconfident, he's reeling and he's out of there.
03:58British Bulldog trying to get his head together.
04:00Bob Holly pouring it on here in the opening minutes of the initial encounter
04:05here tonight on Raw.
04:07And you wonder whether or not Bob Holly has the Bulldog's number,
04:10much like the Bulldog has Bret Hart's number.
04:13That's right, McMahon.
04:13As a matter of fact, do you realize that Bret the Hitman Hart has never,
04:18ever defeated the British Bulldog?
04:20I mean, the Bulldog has won every time they stepped in the ring,
04:22from Wembley Stadium to most recently at the Metal Lane.
04:25Yes, indeed.
04:26The British Bulldog has the Hitman's number, all right.
04:28Over from the other side now, and big pocket slam.
04:31Wait a minute, come on.
04:32Almost a count of three.
04:34And Bob Holly definitely has the Bulldog's number thus far in this matchup.
04:40Anything can happen here in the World Wrestling Federation.
04:42Come on, yank of the hair, give me a break.
04:45This reminds me of the Washington Redskins.
04:47You know, ordinarily they just think to join up, but somehow-
04:48They what?
04:49It seems like they always beat the Dallas Cowboys.
04:52The British Bulldog trying to figure out.
04:54Bob Holly, has he not?
04:55Wait a minute, losing his balance, he just, no!
04:59The British Bulldog just dropped Bob Holly.
05:02I would suggest inadvertently, although perhaps not,
05:05across the top rope, the official has to make a decision here.
05:09That would be tantamount to disqualification,
05:11if it were delivered and Bob Holly to the buckle.
05:14You know, McMahon, I remember Wembley Stadium.
05:16There it was, the Bulldog against Bret the Hitman Hart.
05:18The Hart family torn right down the middle.
05:21The Bulldog's wife and Bret's sister, Diana, torn between who she should be for.
05:26Yes. But not this time.
05:27No, she is solidly, Diana is solidly behind her man.
05:30One, two, and an upset.
05:32No, almost.
05:33What a clothesline there.
05:34Retaliation by the British Bulldog.
05:36What are you saying about Diana?
05:37She's solidly behind the British Bulldog in this matchup,
05:41because she knows that he was overlooked.
05:42And when he finally got his title shot, Bret the Hitman Hart,
05:45her own brother, ruined it for her husband.
05:48And look at this maneuver all the way to the top now.
05:50Yes, the blood rushing down to the head of Bob Hart,
05:53Bob Holly, and the Bulldog- No pressure in this matchup
05:57between the Bulldog and Bret Hart.
06:00And the best runner will be Yassir Farris.
06:03And is once again splitting the Hart family in two.
06:05That's right. One, two, and a kick out by Bob Holly.
06:08And it's all the Hitman's fault.
06:09Can you imagine what the holidays are gonna be like at the Hart family?
06:12What do you mean?
06:12See, Christmas morning, they're all opening their presents.
06:15I'd love to be there, McMahon.
06:18You wanna be at the Hart family during Christmas?
06:21That's right.
06:21I'd like to be the special guest referee.
06:24Please.
06:25Cover, one, two.
06:27Another upset almost in the making here.
06:29Coming off the rope and boom.
06:30My goodness.
06:32Well, it's Calgary, Canada.
06:33It's up there close to the North Pole.
06:34Can you imagine Santa Claus, all the elves, and all 1,500 of the Harts?
06:39I mean, they're gonna be at each other's throats, McMahon.
06:42It'll be a battle royal.
06:43And a slam there by the British Bulldog.
06:46Perhaps the next WWF champion.
06:48Drop your leg.
06:49The Bulldog, yes, as you brought up, did have his shot at the WWF title against
06:53Big Daddy Cool Diesel.
06:54Bret Hart interfered in the matchup.
06:57And now it's the Bulldog.
06:58One-on-one with the Hitman, off the rope and drop.
07:01Nicely done.
07:02However, Bret Hart, over his right shoulder is The Undertaker.
07:05Over his left would be Big Daddy Cool Diesel, right in front of him,
07:09likely to be Bob Backlund.
07:11And behind him, you, Jerry Lawler.
07:13That's right.
07:14But as far as the Bulldog's concerned, thank goodness for
07:17Jimmy Cornette and Clarence Mason.
07:19They were the ones that were able to secure this title match for the Bulldog.
07:22Yeah, well, he's not gonna have all the momentum that he wants,
07:24because I believe there's an upset in the making here.
07:27A nice drop kick in.
07:28Another cover line to another near fall on the part of Bob Holly.
07:33You know, speaking of Bulldog's attorney, Clarence Mason,
07:35to read the paper, they're gonna make a movie about Christopher Darden's life?
07:38Yes, indeed.
07:39That's who they should get to play the role of Christopher Darden,
07:42Clarence Mason.
07:43Clarence Mason?
07:43Yeah. Why?
07:44Well, at least he wins his cases.
07:47Bob Holly hammering away on the British Bulldog.
07:49Three, two, one.
07:50Thus far, Holly has been somewhat successful in negating the strength
07:54advantage of the one, two, and it's- Another near fall on the part of
07:58Bob Holly. What a competitive matchup.
07:59I might should be the guest referee in this match.
08:01That referee should disqualify Holly.
08:03Wait a minute, I've just noted, Bob Backlund is out in the audience.
08:06Bob Backlund, ladies and gentlemen, campaigning.
08:08Wait a minute.
08:09Here we go.
08:10The Bulldog catches Bob Holly.
08:13Power slam, a cover, and it's over.
08:16Just like that.
08:18The British Bulldog.
08:20On his way in your house to lock up, but press the Hitman hard.
08:22However, speaking of the Hitman, there's a non-title matchup here next week
08:26against Bob Backlund.
08:28Where is Bobby?
08:29I want to get a word with him if I can.
08:31Well, speaking of Bob Backlund, ladies and gentlemen, let's take you back.
08:34Wait a minute, wait a minute.
08:35Hey, Bobby, Bob Backlund, over here.
08:38All right, Jerry Long, we're on his way over to interview Bob Backlund.
08:41But meanwhile, we take you back to last week, the return of Brother Love.
08:43And Bob Backlund sneaked up from behind and
08:46put the cross-faced chicken wing on Bret Hart.
08:49But look at this, he wasn't done.
08:50This past weekend, Jim Ross attempted to interview Bob Backlund and
08:54ask him about what he did to Bret Hart when, in fact,
08:56Backlund put the cross-faced chicken wing on our broadcast colleague.
09:01Yes, Jim Ross, ladies and gentlemen.
09:03Unbelievable action by Bob Backlund as we take you now to the King.
09:08Mr. Bob Backlund, where are you?
09:10Here he is, right here.
09:10Yeah, asking the hard questions.
09:12Let him through, let him through.
09:16And notice he called him Mr. Bob Backlund, not Bobby, as he did a few moments ago.
09:20Go ahead, King.
09:21Asking the hard questions.
09:23Here we have Mr. Bob Backlund.
09:28Mr. Backlund, I understand you're out here campaigning among the plebeians,
09:35trying to garner votes, but I wanna talk to you about what's been going on
09:39the past few weeks.
09:40You've been chicken winging everybody you've come in contact with.
09:44But let's talk a little bit about Bret the Hitman Hart.
09:48Right here, next week, you're gonna be facing the Hitman in a match.
09:53It's not a title match, my dear.
09:54No, no, no, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
09:57I wanna be God again.
09:59Hold it, hold it.
10:00What did he say?
10:02Mr. Backlund, just think what a win over the Hitman will do.
10:06Just think how it'll catapult your candidacy.
10:09No, I had dreams of being God again.
10:15So I could reign supreme over all the plebeians and
10:21put them in the right frame of mind.
10:24You know what I'm talking about.
10:29Do you know who I am?
10:31Do you realize what I'm gonna do if these people keep agitating me?
10:39Who knows what's gonna happen?
10:40Do you know what them people have done to me in the last year?
10:45Do you know how I feel?
10:47Hitman, you're just like those plebeians.
10:52We don't need more Hitmen in our society.
10:58We need people- Okay, Bob.
11:00To be role models- Bob, we gotta take a break.
11:02For our people, so those people can- Bob, we gotta take a break.
11:05Live up to seven standards.
11:07Cut him off, King, we gotta get out of here.
11:08To be successful in society.
11:10We gotta go to break- What?
11:12Kill his mic.
11:14We gotta go to break.
11:15Are you trying to finite me?
11:18What? Kill his mic, let's go.
11:19I'm talking here, I paid for- Bob Backlund next week, non-title.
11:24Could they kill this mic?
11:25We'll be right back, stay with us.
11:28Yet to come tonight, a very special interview, an unsettling one with Dr.
11:31Jeffrey Unger, the personal physician of Shawn Michaels.
11:34However, right now, Fatu, ready to make a difference.
11:37And speaking of interviews, that bizarre one you just had with Bob Backlund.
11:41Here's what happened during the break.
11:42Well, I guess so.
11:43He was going nuts.
11:44He wanted to know who cut his microphone off.
11:46You didn't have anything to do with that, did you, McMahon?
11:47Well, I'd like to take credit for it.
11:49Backlund, what's he looking for here?
11:50Look, the floor director said the sound man cut off the microphone.
11:53Backlund's, he's looking for him.
11:55Backlund is looking for our sound engineer?
11:57That's what he told me.
11:58Bob Backlund faces Bret Hart next week in a non-title match up here on Raw.
12:03I would not want to be in Bret Hart's shoes.
12:05And I'm not too sure I'd wanna be in the sound engineer's shoes.
12:09This man has lost it.
12:10All right, here we go.
12:11Ready for action.
12:12Fatu, one on one.
12:14Look out, the Brooklyn Brawler, going to work on Fatu.
12:18Yet to come, ladies and gentlemen, the Intercontinental title match.
12:21Yes, the championship itself here tonight on Raw, perhaps Raze Ramon against
12:25Dean Douglas.
12:25But right now, we've got the Brawler against Fatu, Fatu being set up now.
12:30Big 300 pounder coming off and a knee to the abdominal area.
12:34You know what, McMahon?
12:34Speaking of Bob Backlund, I knew he was gonna be an American hero, but
12:37I thought he would wait until after he was elected.
12:40An American hero, why is he an American hero, pray tell?
12:43Didn't you see what he did to Jim Ross?
12:45Well, that makes him a hero.
12:46Well, it doesn't, my boy.
12:48Yeah, you can bet Gorilla Monsoon, interim WWF president,
12:50will take action against Bob Backlund.
12:53You can bet Bret Hart will do the same next week here on Raw.
12:56Monsoon.
12:56Wait a minute.
12:59Devastating maneuver by Fatu.
13:00By the way, speaking of Jim Ross, he has his own editorial,
13:03his own comment option number six on the superstar line.
13:061-900-737 for WWF.
13:09It's an investment of $1.49 per minute.
13:10Billing, however, does not begin until you choose your option.
13:13And of course, you must be 18 years of age.
13:15Or have your parent's permission before calling.
13:17Yeah, I want to hear option six.
13:19I understand we get an update on Jim Ross' condition and
13:21maybe an editorial about CUMIC, man.
13:24Fatu trying to make a difference.
13:25And thus far, he's really made a difference in this matchup.
13:27Fatu going out to the outside now, going upstairs.
13:30The big 300 pounder.
13:32Look out, brawler.
13:33Look out.
13:35Forget about it.
13:37Tremendous maneuver by Fatu.
13:40Wow, that collision looked like the New York Jets' Marvin Washington
13:43taking Chris Miller's head off yesterday.
13:45Another concussion for Miller.
13:46He's history.
13:47And speaking of concussion, next week, I'll have an interview with
13:50Shawn Michaels, who will join us here on Raw.
13:53Right now, hello Doc, how you doing?
13:55Hey Vince, I'm doing great, and a lot better than Owen Hart.
13:58But listen, I want to throw my hat in the ring for that Shawn Michaels interview.
14:02Now speaking of Owen Hart, you recall last week he was out here running around.
14:06He was responsible for the collapse of Shawn Michaels.
14:08He had an open contract, and nobody would take him on.
14:11Well, guess what?
14:12That contract just got closed.
14:14You will not- Hang on one second.
14:16What? Let's go back out to the arena.
14:18Why, why? Bob Backlund.
14:19Bob Backlund apparently is causing a commotion out around the sound
14:23engineer's booth.
14:24Backlund, Backlund with a sound man.
14:26He put his hands on, he's manhandling the sound man.
14:29Bob Backlund, Backlund puts a cross face chicken wing on the sound engineer.
14:35Look at this lunatic.
14:38Backlund has lost it.
14:39Bob Backlund's out of his mind.
14:42Somebody stop him.
14:43Somebody get him off him.
14:47What is the deal with him?
14:48I mean, has he totally lost his mind?
14:50Look, somebody's gonna have to do something like Gorilla Monster.
14:52I mean, I just, I almost forgot.
14:55The news.
14:56Who's taking on Owen Hart?
14:57It's Diesel.
14:59Diesel has closed the open contract.
15:01Is that remarkable?
15:02This Bob Backlund thing, I don't know.
15:03Somebody's gotta do something.
15:04It's crazy.
15:05Look at this.
15:06You can bet action will be taken against Bob Backlund by Gorilla Monsoon.
15:10Last weekend, put his hands on Jim Ross.
15:12Here tonight, a sound engineer.
15:14Fred Hart last week.
15:15Who knows where it's gonna end?
15:17And who knows?
15:17Maybe Dean Douglas will be the next Intercontinental Champion.
15:20And how about Diesel stepping in to face Owen Hart in your house?
15:24Still to come tonight on Raw,
15:27Marty Jannetty battles the million dollar corporation, Psycho Sid.
15:32Plus, we'll have the news on the heartbreak kid, Shawn Michaels.
15:37Some of his neurological problems may be permanent.
15:40And up next, it's Razor Ramon and Dean Douglas for the Intercontinental title.
15:47Welcome back, everyone, to more Raw.
15:49Here we go.
15:49The Intercontinental title is up for grabs.
15:53Dean Douglas one-on-one with the bad guy.
15:55Here he comes, the only four-time Intercontinental Champion.
15:59He is losing Machismo.
16:02The bad guy, yes, Razor Ramon.
16:06What a matchup this is gonna be.
16:08The title up for grabs here tonight on Raw.
16:11Who's gonna take home to school?
16:14Tonight, Raw brought to you by Twix with chewy caramel, milk chocolate, and
16:19that great cookie crunch.
16:21It's time out for Twix.
16:23And by Tycho's Haunted Highway.
16:25Escape the monster's evil eye and win new from Tycho.
16:29And by Oh My!
16:31Burger King, where you can get your burgers first.
16:34And the fireworks display brought to you by the bad guy.
16:37Look at that title around his waist.
16:39Looking good here tonight.
16:41Razor Ramon against Dean Douglas.
16:43What does Dean Douglas have to do in order to take the title from the bad guy?
16:47Are you kidding?
16:47It's simple.
16:48Outsmart him.
16:49Tonight, you're gonna see that brains will always overcome brawn.
16:53Is that right?
16:54If that's the case, then it will be Dean Douglas in your house,
16:58defeating the Intercontinental Championship against Ahmed Johnson.
17:01Hey, how about that?
17:04Yeah.
17:05I would question the psychological advantage of that in terms of brains.
17:09Right back in your face, and that's what it's gonna be here, in your face.
17:12Razor Ramon, defending the Intercontinental title here tonight on Raw
17:16against Dean Douglas.
17:18Dean Douglas slapped the toothpick right out of Razor Ramon.
17:20Wait a minute, from behind, here comes the Dean.
17:21Yes.
17:22Dean attacking Razor Ramon.
17:24I can't believe this.
17:25Dean Douglas is using Razor Ramon type tactics against the bad guy.
17:29Put the boots to him.
17:30Kick that belt right off of him.
17:32Razor Ramon still has a championship belt.
17:34Well, no, not now he doesn't.
17:35Yes. Dean Douglas rips it off.
17:36Looks at it.
17:37Could it be his?
17:38Whoa.
17:38No, look out, disqualifying.
17:40Now the official grabs the belt away from Dean Douglas.
17:43All right, now then.
17:45Razor back up on his feet.
17:46Maybe not for long.
17:47To the buckle.
17:48And Dean Douglas is pouring it on.
17:49And perhaps it is brains over brawn.
17:51Look, Douglas tempering the bad guy, Razor Ramon.
17:54You would think Dean would resort to scientific skill here tonight on Raw.
17:58But no.
17:59Wait a minute.
18:00Reversal now, coming off it.
18:01Missing with a clothesline.
18:02The bad guy, he still daze.
18:03Uh-oh.
18:05Trouble.
18:06Trouble on Raw.
18:07Trouble in River City.
18:08And now Razor can turn it around and- Look out, Dean.
18:11Roll over the top and down to the outside.
18:15Yeah, the bad guy.
18:18Clotheslining Dean Douglas over the top rope.
18:20It looked like Douglas hurt his back as he went over.
18:23And look at that.
18:24Razor throws his vest down.
18:25Close to Dean Douglas.
18:26Go ahead, referee.
18:27Disqualify Razor.
18:28Disqualifying for what?
18:29The bad guy going to the outside now with Douglas.
18:32And throws him right back in.
18:34Razor Ramon, unquestionably great on offense.
18:36Underneath the roundhouse and- That hit nicely done.
18:40Right down on that injured back again.
18:41And right to the armbar.
18:43Yes.
18:44Razor Ramon.
18:45Taking it to Dean Douglas.
18:46Earlier on, however, roles were reversed for sure.
18:50Dean Douglas is apparently considerably better on offense than he is on defense.
18:55Well, I told you, Dean Douglas has got the- Well, wait a minute.
18:57What's this?
18:58I know what that is, McMahon.
18:59That's a reminder to me about the interview that I want to conduct with
19:03Shawn Michaels next week.
19:04You don't need to interview him.
19:05I need to interview Shawn Michaels.
19:06I certainly would like to have the privilege.
19:08And that obviously is a reminder of the friendship between Razor Ramon and
19:12Shawn Michaels.
19:13And again, later on, ladies and gentlemen, we will have a disturbing interview with
19:17a personal physician of Shawn Michaels.
19:19To the buckle with authority.
19:21Look at that.
19:22Douglas driving a knee into the jaw of the bad guy.
19:26Here we go, here we go.
19:27Here we go.
19:27Dean Douglas now, punched up on the top end.
19:31Climbs Ramon down into the canvas.
19:34Dean Douglas apparently having some back problems.
19:37You would think he'd be moving in.
19:38Look at that.
19:39Yes, he definitely is having back problems.
19:41Ramon catapulted Douglas over the top.
19:44Wait a minute, that belies the, well, no, it doesn't.
19:46Look at that.
19:47Douglas still having problems with his back.
19:50Douglas with an opportunity to be Intercontinental Champion here tonight.
19:54Welcome back everyone to more WWF Raw.
19:56Dean Douglas against Razor Ramon for the Intercontinental title.
19:59Dean Douglas with the advantage on Razor Ramon.
20:02However, let's take you back now.
20:04Just before we went to break, here's Dean Douglas coming into the corner.
20:07Look at this maneuvering.
20:08Yes.
20:09Down into the back of Razor Ramon.
20:11Give Ramon a few back problems.
20:13Yes, a cover attempt here, a count of two, and a quick kick out by Razor Ramon,
20:17who nonetheless himself is having back problems as we speak.
20:22Look at Dean Douglas.
20:23He's not only outsmarting Ramon.
20:24What's the matter with that referee?
20:26The official saw it, the official saw it.
20:28He can't use the Raw presidential leverage.
20:30The bad guy set up.
20:31Razor Ramon now.
20:32Abdominal stretch being applied now.
20:34No, no, no, he reversed it.
20:36Nicely done.
20:38Razor Ramon taking the Dean to school at the moment.
20:42And that would be the school of hard knocks.
20:43Yes.
20:44Nice maneuver there by Dean Douglas over the hip.
20:46This has been a hard fought match up, McMahon,
20:48much like the Army-Navy football game was this past weekend.
20:51And flying body press, but Razor rolls through it.
20:54One, two.
20:55Oh, no, very, very close.
20:57You know why Army and Navy work so hard, don't you?
20:59Why's that?
21:00Oh!
21:01The losers have to go to Bosnia.
21:02I don't believe that's a joking matter.
21:04As a matter of fact, many people believe we have no business being in Bosnia.
21:07Oh, but wait a minute.
21:09Razor Ramon just gave the signal.
21:11Will we see the Razor's Edge?
21:14Or is Dean smart enough to get out of this?
21:16Here we go now.
21:16Razor sets him up.
21:18Razor has the Dean right where he wants him in.
21:20No, hang on, Dean.
21:21Come on, the Dean's back is already injured.
21:23Off goes Dean Douglas.
21:25Yes, Dean Douglas driven out of the canvas.
21:27The Razor's Edge applied.
21:29Oh, covered by the bad guy.
21:30Kick out.
21:31We have one, two.
21:33Yes.
21:34And a decisive victory for the bad guy, Razor Ramon,
21:38the only four-time Intercontinental Champion.
21:43The bad guy, victorious here tonight overall.
21:46Yet to come, ladies and gentlemen.
21:48One on one.
21:49We've got Psycho Sid against Marty Jannetty, and look at that.
21:51Oh, that was a devastating maneuver.
21:54Plus, we have the unnerving comments of Shawn Michaels, personal physician.
21:57And in 30 seconds, we'll be right back.
21:59Brother Love's going to join us for that big surprise.
22:03The champion and the candidate.
22:06Bob's envy of Bret caused the slap that triggered the snap.
22:10And now that Bret is back on top, it's a wing thing all over again.
22:16If their history has taught us anything, it's to expect the unexpected.
22:21Bret Hart battles Mr. Bob Backlund.
22:24Plus, Shawn Michaels speaks up for the first time
22:26since his collapse in the ring next week on Raw.
22:33Thank you, brothers and sisters.
22:39Yes, we thank you for joining us tonight on Raw.
22:41Our guest this week- We know who your guest is, Brother Love.
22:45Is a man who will be facing the man that Brother Love brought
22:51into the WWF, The Undertaker, in your house on December 17th.
23:00It's on my calendar.
23:01Brother Love has a surprise for the one, the only, King Mabel.
23:11Yeah.
23:12And here he comes, ladies and gentlemen, yes.
23:14Here he comes, the man who defeated The Undertaker at the King of the Ring
23:19and became the King.
23:20You know what, it takes a king to know a king,
23:22and I know one thing about King Mabel.
23:24What's that?
23:24He don't like surprises.
23:26I can tell you this, Mabel surprising The Undertaker last week
23:31when he grabbed and ran like a thief in the night- What?
23:33With the remnants of the urn.
23:36Just when you thought The Undertaker had the power back again
23:39after defeating Kama last week, Yokozuna and Mabel,
23:42the two individuals who did the damage to The Undertaker's face.
23:47Well, the combined forces- Welcome, Brother Mabel.
23:51Welcome to The Brother Love Show.
23:55Now, I have a surprise for you that we will talk about in a moment,
24:01but it looks as if you are missing something.
24:04Or should I say you are missing someone?
24:06As if it's any of your business, I'm missing Sir Moe.
24:15Well, this is The Brother Love Show, and yes, it is my business.
24:22You see, because soon you will be stepping into the ring
24:27with The Undertaker in a casket match in your hand.
24:35You can laugh about that?
24:37That's right.
24:39Not only was I the first man to ever bend The Undertaker's shoulders to the mat for
24:45the one, two, three, but I was also the first man to put him out of action.
24:51And I will also be the first man to single-handedly
24:56stuff him in his own casket.
25:00Yeah.
25:01Yes, indeed.
25:03But you know, as everyone knows, Brother Love,
25:05you'd bring The Undertaker here to the WWF, and I do have a surprise for you.
25:11I don't like surprises, Brother Love.
25:14I told you, McMahon.
25:16Well, this is a surprise of love, and I think you will like this surprise.
25:20Look at the size of Mabel.
25:20And let me tell you, I don't like surprises.
25:23Well, Brother McCain, surprise, surprise, and behold.
25:32What is this now?
25:35What is it?
25:35Wait a minute.
25:36Wait, wait a minute.
25:37What?
25:39That's a casket.
25:42And look at this.
25:43Who's pushing that casket to the squared circle?
25:53And Mabel likely to get out of the ring now, because no one wants to be close.
25:58Is that Paul Bearer?
25:59I don't know, but Mabel, get out of there.
26:02Get out of the ring right now.
26:05Well, he will have no alternative in your house when it's Mabel against
26:10The Undertaker.
26:10Yes, sir, Brother King.
26:14Don't do it, Mabel.
26:15And look at Mabel backing way off.
26:18You can't blame him.
26:19What is Brother Love trying to pull?
26:21That's not funny.
26:22And behold, Brother King.
26:26Behold what?
26:31Mabel coming closer.
26:33Look out.
26:33And- You see, Brother King.
26:41Not only did I have one surprise for you,
26:45I actually have two surprises for you.
26:51Behold surprise number one.
26:58It's Moe.
27:00What's the deal?
27:00What did you do?
27:01Turn Moe against me?
27:05Well, you see, Brother King.
27:07Brother Love loves you just like Sir Moe loves you.
27:13What's going on?
27:14Surprise number two, Sir Moe.
27:20Wait a minute.
27:21Look what they've done.
27:22Look what they've done.
27:23They put graffiti all over the casket.
27:25Hey, wait.
27:25Behold.
27:26This is great.
27:27Why, it is custom made, custom painted casket just for you, Brother Mabel.
27:36It is a gift of love for you.
27:39I love it, Brother Love.
27:43I love it.
27:44Well, he may not be loving it.
27:47In Hershey Park, I'm gonna stuff you in that casket.
27:52And I wanna thank you, Brother Love, for this token of love.
27:58But Undertaker, and in your house, for you, there will be no love.
28:07But there will be 568 pounds of pure hate.
28:15Well, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen.
28:19Just a casket match in your house.
28:22It's Mabel against The Undertaker.
28:25With a new and improved casket, I might add.
28:27Yeah, right.
28:28Yet to come, ladies and gentlemen, tonight, we got Marty Jannetty,
28:30one-on-one with Psycho Sid.
28:34What a matchup that's gonna be.
28:35Matter of fact, I think we have the bad guy and Marty Jannetty back.
28:39Do we have him?
28:39Come on, MJ, you're up, man, you're up.
28:41I'm ready, I'm ready, come on, come on.
28:42Chop that big psycho down like a tree, man.
28:44Watch for the kid, I mean it.
28:45No problem, we got a deal, man, we're a team.
28:47I'll watch you, bad man, go get him.
28:48Stay with us.
28:50The WWF's spectacular World Tour de Force will rock your world when it comes to your time.
28:55Catch it live tomorrow night as we head north of the border and
28:58invade the Oshawa Civic Auditorium.
29:01This Wednesday, we're back in the States as we barrel into the Niagara Falls
29:05Convention Center.
29:06This Friday, we power into Pittsburgh's Civic Arena.
29:09Saturday, we blow into the Windy City and take over the United Center.
29:13And from there, we'll be in your house, live from the Hershey Park Arena.
29:18Don't miss your chance to see the WWF's World Tour de Force.
29:22It's an international force to be reckoned with.
29:29January 1, it's not the Fiesta Bowl.
29:32It's not the Orange Bowl.
29:34It's not the Sugar Bowl.
29:36Why?
29:37It's the Raw Bowl.
29:38Coming January 1, right here on USA.
29:42Yeah, buckle your chin, Strat McMahon.
29:44You're in for some necessary roughness.
29:47Aha, and here we go right now, ladies and gentlemen.
29:50Here comes Psycho Sid on his way to lock up with Marty Jannetty.
29:54Billion dollar man from West Memphis, Arkansas, weighing 313 pounds, Sid.
30:03Yes, as in Psycho Sid, at least from this distance, he is Psycho Sid.
30:08Why is that, McMahon?
30:09We're not talking Norman Bates here.
30:10You're not, huh?
30:11Listen, listen.
30:12You're the one you choose to play the game of the master.
30:18And the game we play, I am the master, I am the ruler of the world.
30:27The ruler of the world, well, that remains to be seen as to whether or
30:29not he's even the ruler of the World Wrestling Federation.
30:34However, speaking of the ruler of merchandise,
30:36Barry Dadinski is here with us here tonight on Raw.
30:38Hey guys, check this out.
30:39No, I haven't shrunk, but these things are life size.
30:43And obviously, I'm only 5'8", and they're a good 7' tall.
30:47The cardboard stand up of Diesel, the one of the man from the dark side,
30:51The Undertaker, they reach only $25 by dialing 1-800-TIGHT-91.
30:57Imagine having one of these guys in your house, at your breakfast table,
31:01in your room.
31:01Look, they stand up by themselves, they're 7' tall, they're enormous.
31:061-800-TIGHT-91, for only $25.
31:09Back to you guys.
31:10All right, Doc Hendricks with the same company on the action zone just yesterday.
31:15Here we go.
31:16Here comes Marty Jannetty.
31:18Marty Jannetty, ladies and gentlemen.
31:20We saw the bad guy, Raze Ramon, in action earlier on.
31:23And we saw Raze Ramon with a few words of wisdom from Marty Jannetty.
31:27Look out, Sid, look out.
31:27Look from behind.
31:28Look at this.
31:29Jannetty going to work on Psycho Sid.
31:31Take it to him.
31:32This is not fair, McMahon.
31:33Look it, Jannetty knows that's his only chance.
31:35He's a cheap shot artist.
31:36Only chance, my foot.
31:38Marty Jannetty can mix it up with the best of them.
31:40Jannetty flying, but yeah, here we come.
31:42Look at this.
31:43Yes, look at Jannetty.
31:45Jannetty all over Psycho Sid.
31:48Jannetty trying to soften up Sid for that tremendous tag team matchup.
31:51Yes, it will be Raze Ramon and Marty Jannetty teaming up in your house
31:54against Psycho Sid and the one, two, three kid.
31:56Off the rope and, wait, wait a minute.
31:59Ow.
32:00And just like that, Psycho Sid turns the match right back around.
32:05And look at this.
32:06This man is a psycho.
32:08Sid with an opportunity there for a cover, but instead of that, what does he do?
32:11He gets right in Jannetty's face.
32:13He'll talk to you throughout the whole match.
32:15Yeah.
32:16You mean he'll yell at you is what you mean.
32:18I don't mind the guy beating me up, but I don't like him to talk to me while he's doing it.
32:21Uh-huh.
32:22Psycho Sid against Marty Jannetty as we take you back down.
32:25There's a double feature.
32:26And watch how Psycho Sid drives Jannetty down to the canvas.
32:31And repeatedly now, Jannetty down.
32:35Razor Ramon unquestionably watching this action as we speak.
32:40And I wouldn't be at all surprised if the one, two, three kid were not watching somewhere as well.
32:46Well, I would hope he's watching because I can assure you, you saw Marty Jannetty.
32:50He's got Razor Ramon back there as an insurance policy.
32:53He probably told Razor, when you see Sid just about to finish me off,
32:56please come in the ring and save me.
32:58I don't think that's what was said at all.
33:00Psycho Sid hammering those hard right hands to the midsection of Marty Jannetty.
33:05And believe me, this is a very, very powerful man.
33:08Sid up top now.
33:10Come on, get him off, ref.
33:12Psycho Sid.
33:13Oh, my goodness.
33:14Chiefly responsible for the one, two, three kid's victory over Marty Jannetty at the Survivor Series.
33:22And also, the two of them, the one, two, three kid and Sid,
33:26unquestionably responsible for Razor's elimination at the Survivor Series.
33:32Let's not forget Ted DiBiase, the Million Dollar Man.
33:36Yeah, let's please not forget him.
33:37He's the brains behind this whole operation.
33:39Yeah, right.
33:40And the money behind it.
33:42For the ride to the buckle with authority and-
33:45Here comes Sid and no!
33:48Nice maneuver by Marty Jannetty.
33:50Jannetty now from the top and down.
33:52Here goes Psycho Sid.
33:54What a maneuver by Jannetty.
33:56Marty Jannetty with opportunity to finish this thing off now.
33:59And Psycho Sid.
34:00Here we go.
34:01Sid is in trouble.
34:02Jannetty drives the fast.
34:04A somersault bulldog.
34:05Oh, wait a minute.
34:06Look at this.
34:07Razor Ramon looking at the action.
34:09Two and yes.
34:10No.
34:11What did I tell you, McMahon?
34:12Look at him.
34:13He's gonna interfere.
34:14He is not.
34:15Stay with us.
34:16Here's another one to mark WWF Raw.
34:17Psycho Sid against Marty Jannetty.
34:19And during the break, Psycho Sid continued to pummel Marty Jannetty.
34:23Jannetty being set up now.
34:24Oh, the rope in.
34:25Missing in the roundhouse.
34:26Jannetty.
34:27Oh, no.
34:28Oh!
34:29Whoa.
34:30That was a devastating maneuver.
34:32That was beautiful.
34:33Unbelievable power on the part of Psycho Sid.
34:36Many individuals are wondering what sort of a tag team combination
34:39the 1, 2, 3 Kid and Psycho Sid will make.
34:43They're natural, McMahon.
34:44Just the sound of their names together.
34:47Sid and the Kid.
34:48And look at this.
34:49Over.
34:50Yes.
34:51And trying to get the big man down.
34:52Marty Jannetty with Psycho Sid.
34:54And Sid trying.
34:55No.
34:56Nobody there.
34:57Psycho Sid on his feet.
34:58Roundhouse.
34:59Ducks in.
35:00Again.
35:01Again.
35:02Jannetty is leveled.
35:03I would suggest in terms of tag team,
35:05we will see a great deal of coordination with Jannetty and Razor.
35:08A cover.
35:091, 2.
35:10And a sloppy cover on the part of Psycho Sid.
35:13Oh, come on, McMahon.
35:14He didn't want to pin him at that point.
35:16He wants to punish him.
35:17There is no rhyme or reason to anything Psycho Sid does.
35:20That's for sure.
35:21He is off the chart.
35:23And Marty Jannetty having great difficulty in the background.
35:26The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase.
35:27And look at those idiots behind him with the Burger King crowns on.
35:30Yes.
35:32And Psycho Sid.
35:36Hearing his capacity crowd.
35:39Jannetty with a tremendous following.
35:41Jannetty trying to make his way out of the hole.
35:43What's he doing?
35:44And turns into Psycho Sid.
35:46Breaking a bit of the leverage.
35:47Back to his feet now.
35:48Jannetty with the right hand.
35:49And a kick by Psycho Sid.
35:50Hard right block.
35:51Look at this.
35:52Jannetty.
35:53Going toe-to-toe with Psycho Sid.
35:54Jannetty coming off the rope.
35:55And no.
35:56Over the top to the outside.
35:59Earlier on, Dean Douglas went over the top in the matchup with Razor Ramon
36:04and suffered a back injury.
36:07And oh, come on.
36:09That'll give you a little back injury.
36:11Oh, no.
36:13Oh, wait a minute.
36:14Look at the look on Jannetty's face.
36:15Hold it.
36:16DiBiase.
36:17Here comes the kid.
36:18To the rescue.
36:19Look out from behind.
36:20Oh.
36:21Ha-ha.
36:23A one, two, three kid attacking Marty Jannetty.
36:26Psycho Sid.
36:27Destructing the official.
36:29Wait a minute.
36:30Here comes Razor Ramon.
36:31What's the deal?
36:32What's he doing out here?
36:34Razor chasing the kid.
36:35And chasing DiBiase away from Jannetty.
36:38Look out.
36:39Look out.
36:40Oh.
36:41Uh-oh.
36:42Look out here.
36:43Wait a minute.
36:44Razor Ramon going to work on Psycho Sid.
36:45A hard right hand.
36:46And Sid's over the top to the outside.
36:48And the one, two, three kid is running for his life.
36:51Where are you going?
36:52Look out, kid.
36:53Hey, wait a minute.
36:54They're going right up into the stands.
36:55Razor wants to get his hands on the kid.
36:57He's right behind you, kid.
36:58Get him.
36:59Razor going after the kid.
37:01Kid's chasing Razor.
37:02No.
37:03Now the kid is running from Razor Ramon.
37:06Meanwhile, back in the ring area.
37:08Look out from behind.
37:10Sid now with Jannetty.
37:13Is this match still going?
37:15And now the match is officially over.
37:17Obviously a disqualification.
37:19And down to the canvas.
37:25Psycho Sid doing some damage to Jannetty.
37:30Powerbombing him down to the canvas.
37:35Razor caught up with the one, two, three kid.
37:37But look at this.
37:39Stuffing that $100 bill down the throat of Jannetty.
37:48Marty Jannetty is actually victorious.
37:51It'll go down in the record book as a victory for Marty Jannetty.
37:54As a result of the disqualification of the one, two, three kid coming down here.
37:58Wait a minute.
37:59Wait a minute.
38:00Razor's the one that interfered in the match.
38:01He's the one that got in the ring.
38:05Yeah, sure, you're sorry.
38:07No, you didn't want to do that.
38:09You wanted to do worse.
38:11Up next, ladies and gentlemen.
38:13The startling interview with Dr. Jeffrey Younger.
38:15The personal physician of Shawn Michaels.
38:17Todd Pettengill will conduct an interview.
38:20Shawn's wrestling career is absolutely insignificant to me.
38:22I am concerned about Shawn as a human being.
38:25Welcome back everyone.
38:26Tavon Raw, the one, two, three kid.
38:28Probably still running right or not in the building.
38:30Who knows what's going to happen when the bad guy catches up to him.
38:32I can tell you this right here next week.
38:34Bob Backlund's going to be caught up to by the Hitman Bret Hart.
38:38What a matchup.
38:39Oh no.
38:40You saw what happened last week when Bob Backlund got the chicken wing on Bret the Hitman Hart.
38:44It was just like last year's Survivor Series.
38:46The Hitman was screaming.
38:47He was begging.
38:48He was pleading.
38:49I give up, Mr. Backlund.
38:50Jim Rawson in from there.
38:51A sound man.
38:52I mean, what goes with this idiot?
38:54I want him to get you, McMahon.
38:55He's going to get everybody, Mr. Bob Backlund.
38:58Next week, Bob Backlund against Bret the Hitman Hart.
39:00And when we return, ladies and gentlemen, in 30 seconds,
39:03Todd Pettengill will follow a shocking story from Dr. Jeffrey Unger, the personal physician of Shawn Michaels.
39:12This past weekend, I went to the Chino Medical Center just outside of Los Angeles, California,
39:17looking for Shawn Michaels' personal physician, Dr. Jeffrey Unger.
39:21After what happened a couple of weeks ago on Raw,
39:23everyone has been concerned about the health and future of Shawn Michaels, especially Dr. Unger.
39:28When I was at home watching Monday Night Raw with my wife and I saw this,
39:32I was terrified for Shawn.
39:34I was the one that sent him back to the ring in the first place,
39:36and I thought that Shawn was seriously injured at that time.
39:39And he wasn't the only one.
39:41Shawn was in control of his match with Ellen Hart.
39:44Victory seemed to be at hand.
39:46And then we witnessed the longest five seconds in World Wrestling Federation history.
39:52Shawn Michaels collapsed to the canvas,
39:54and we later found out Shawn was suffering from post-concussion syndrome.
39:58In the United States, annually, there's about 4 million patients that suffer from some type of head trauma.
40:03As a result of the head trauma, about half these patients develop a syndrome,
40:07which includes problems such as ringing the ears, nausea, vomiting, headache, blurred vision,
40:13different problems such as numbness in their hands and feet, forgetfulness, inability to concentrate.
40:20They can lose their direction.
40:22And this becomes a problem because these patients tend to get frustrated.
40:25They get depressed as well.
40:27They have sleep disturbances.
40:29And all this persists for between two weeks to several months.
40:33However, there's a group of patients that may go up to three years before they show any improvement.
40:37And these patients usually have a very poor prognosis, and they don't seem to get better at all.
40:41I asked the doctor about Shawn's current test results.
40:44Shawn's current neurological tests are abnormal,
40:47and I believe that he might be out considerably longer than I expected.
40:51Any indication of having Shawn return at this time that WWF are just totally premature.
40:58I then asked the doctor when we could expect to see Shawn Michaels back in action.
41:02I'm not sure when Shawn's going to come back.
41:04I do know that there are many professional football players and boxers
41:07that never fully recover from these type of head injuries.
41:10With Shawn, the problem is that he is such a high-impact type of athlete
41:15that I would have to be 100% certain that he would not re-injure himself when he got back into the ring.
41:20Shawn Michaels is renowned for his stamina and his resiliency.
41:24As a matter of fact, early around this year at the Royal Rumble,
41:27Shawn survived a brutal 40-minute battle in which he outlasted 29 other superstars.
41:32The day after WrestleMania, he was viciously attacked by Psycho Sid
41:36and still returned to action and went on to reclaim the Intercontinental title.
41:41Shawn also survived a second ladder match at the WWF SummerSlam with the bad guy Razor Ramon.
41:47And most recently, Shawn returned to the ring
41:50after being attacked by nine thugs outside of a Syracuse nightclub.
41:54Now surely this kind of resiliency should help Shawn Michaels recover faster.
41:58Probably not because the brain is not resilient.
42:01Shawn's wrestling career is absolutely insignificant to me.
42:04I am concerned about Shawn as a human being.
42:06Technically, Shawn does have brain damage, and that's the cause of the post-concussive syndrome.
42:10With Shawn's current neurological status, any additional blows to the head could be life-threatening.
42:15So now what becomes of Shawn Michaels?
42:18The most charismatic, the most flamboyant superstar in the history of the World Wrestling Federation.
42:24Well, Dr. Unger left me with these very disturbing final comments regarding the future of Shawn Michaels.
42:30Shawn is simply not progressing very well neurologically.
42:33I don't think it would be safe for him to enter the ring at this time.
42:36In fact, it may not be safe for him to go back to wrestling at all.
42:42These sobering thoughts have led us to reflect upon many of our WWF superstars.
42:50In the theater of life, we tend to place public figures on a pedestal.
42:55For an elite few, we reserve the mantle of superstardom.
43:00By doing this, we separate these individuals from the rest of us,
43:04bestowing upon them superhuman qualities that may or may not even exist.
43:11We tend to think of our superstars as different from us.
43:15Superstars are bigger than we are.
43:18They're faster. They're stronger.
43:21Why, they don't even think the way we think.
43:24They don't talk the way we talk.
43:27And they certainly don't feel pain the way we feel pain.
43:31Well, Shawn Michaels has unquestionably always been the very embodiment
43:36of what superstardom is really all about.
43:40But two weeks ago on Raw, the facade of superstardom was smashed in an instant
43:47when Shawn Michaels collapsed to the canvas.
43:51In that frightening moment, we realized that a superstar is really,
43:57just like the rest of us, a human being.
44:01They do feel pain. They're not invincible.
44:05Unquestionably, these athletes are driven by their insatiable desire
44:10to be the very best they can be.
44:13Here in the World Wrestling Federation, we cheer wildly
44:17as these superstars risk their bodies time after time,
44:21constantly taking one step closer to the edge
44:25in an effort to thrill the crowd.
44:28Well, Shawn Michaels has been living on the edge
44:32and thrilling the crowds for quite some time.
44:36Shawn Michaels wowed us into believing that he could do just about anything
44:41because we've seen him do it.
44:45But now we find ourselves in the uncomfortable position
44:49of hoping he'll just be all right.
44:52All the while knowing we helped push him over the edge
44:56in our unquenchable thirst for excitement.
45:00However, like anyone who totally loves what they do,
45:04Shawn Michaels can't wait to get back into the ring.
45:08And believe me, he's even more anxious to get back than we are to see him back.
45:13But unfortunately, now there's a question as to when or even if
45:20Shawn Michaels should return at all.
