00:00All right, here we go.
00:05We're live, ladies and gentlemen, from New Haven, Connecticut.
00:09It's Monday Night Raw.
00:12And here comes Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:16Yeah.
00:17Tough man matchup, ladies and gentlemen.
00:19Originally to have been with Vader, well now it's even worse.
00:24It's gonna be Stone Cold against Mankind.
00:27Vince McMahon here along with Jim Ross and Jerry The King Lawler.
00:31All of us on hand last night for the Survivor Series.
00:34This was the man they call Vader.
00:36Let's take you back and show you why Vader won't be facing Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:41It was the, I would suggest, 700-pound Yokozuna who did just that.
00:47Vader's shoulder injured, Vader will be out for a few days, but
00:50he'll be back in action soon.
00:51But could not compete tonight in the Who's the Toughest in the WWF matchup.
00:55Look out, dude, hey, look out.
00:58Boy, this is gonna look like a car wreck before it's all said and done.
01:04Mankind and Steve Austin going at it tooth and nail here live from New Haven.
01:12And look at Stone Cold go.
01:15Both individuals, Stone Cold as well as Mankind,
01:18tested last night in individual competition.
01:20And both earned a great deal of respect from their opponents as well as WWF fans.
01:26This may end up at an I-95.
01:28No, they're nowhere near the ring.
01:30This one's getting totally out of hand.
01:32Look at this, Mankind and Stone Cold wobbling all around.
01:37Stone Cold hammering Stone Cold to the kid.
01:39How he wins and certainly none of this Mankind.
01:42And look at the face of Jerry The King Lawler.
01:44You are gloating, you're loving every second of this.
01:47This is great, and they ask me why I love this job.
01:50Come on, I don't care who wins, I just want somebody to hurt somebody else.
01:54And unfortunately, that's exactly what they're doing to each other.
01:57No.
01:57The referee's knocked down.
01:58Whoa.
01:59Yes.
02:00This is chaotic and out of control.
02:02Well, we knew it was gonna be a war if Vader had been involved.
02:06But now with Mankind involved, who knows where it's gonna wind up.
02:08A lot of pride involved, and
02:09who's gonna be considered the toughest man in the world right now.
02:13Whoa.
02:13And Stone Cold will hurl his body just as Mankind will, as if it's a weapon.
02:22They'll just hurl their bodies with power now.
02:25Look at this, they're trying to get things in order here,
02:28trying to get this matchup in the ring to kick things off officially tonight.
02:31On Monday Night Raw.
02:32And Stone Cold Steve Austin.
02:38And Mankind.
02:40Whoa.
02:41Unbelievable, ladies and gentlemen.
02:47We've got a tough man contest for sure.
02:50We've got Stone Cold Steve Austin squaring off against Mankind.
02:54Live from New Haven, welcome everyone to WWF Raw.
02:58We have a new World Wrestling Federation Champion.
03:02His name is Psycho Sid, who will join us.
03:04We're hopeful of Shawn Michaels joining us.
03:07But right now, we've got a tough man contest.
03:10Two of the toughest in the WWF.
03:11This is an absolute brawl out of control.
03:14So chaotic.
03:16And there's the ring.
03:18This thing started out.
03:20They still have no way of maintaining control.
03:23Every official we have here coming out to try and get these men into the ring.
03:27And no.
03:28The match has yet to officially start.
03:31And someone may go to the hospital before it does.
03:33You guys said it, it's a tough man contest.
03:36Let's see who's the toughest.
03:38And tonight, ladies and gentlemen, on WWF Raw,
03:42we've got from the nation of domination.
03:44We have Farouk.
03:46We have a new tag team combination victorious last night.
03:49And of course, we have Psycho Sid holding on to the gold deal bar.
03:53And look at Stone Cold go.
03:55The going gets tough.
03:56The tough get going.
03:57Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Hitman Bret Hart having a go last night.
04:04That set a new standard for competition here in the WWF.
04:08Just 24 hours ago, Stone Cold Steve Austin had one heck of a war in
04:12Madison Square Garden with Bret the Hitman Hart.
04:14A match that could have gone either way.
04:16How tough can he be as well as Mankind, my goodness.
04:21Who was whipped from pole to post last night by The Undertaker.
04:25But yet, he comes back and he has more.
04:27Look at this, Stone Cold and Mankind having each other in a tough man contest
04:32here tonight on Raw.
04:33All I can say is Paul Bearer better stay out of the way.
04:36That's one thing he's not, that's tough.
04:38Stay back, Paul.
04:39We are hopeful, ladies and gentlemen,
04:42of having Shawn Michaels join us here live tonight.
04:46We're not certain if he's gonna be able to make it or not.
04:48He accompanied Jose Lothario back to San Antonio earlier this morning.
04:55Jose Lothario suffering chest pains last night.
04:58A lot more on that story.
04:59Whoa!
05:00Goodness, unbelievable.
05:04Well, you talk about a gut check for both these guys.
05:06After Austin and Hart.
05:07After Mankind and The Undertaker just 24 hours ago.
05:11How are they doing this?
05:12Stone Cold's just throwing his body.
05:14He looked like a Russian rocket that fell back.
05:16No, Mankind through the ropes.
05:18Look out, look out.
05:22Mankind grabs a chair.
05:23Grab that chair.
05:24Grab McMahon.
05:25Get McMahon.
05:26Look out.
05:28No.
05:31Get in there, McMahon.
05:32Thank you, no.
05:34Mankind and Stone Cold Steve Austin having a go.
05:38Live tonight on Raw, unbelievable competition.
05:41He's right here, come on.
05:43We're talking about physicality.
05:49We're talking about, no, wait a minute, no, no, no.
05:52Unbelievable, did you see that?
05:56Right on the concrete.
05:58Mankind over the rail, right on the concrete.
06:01You can hear the splat.
06:03This may last all night long.
06:06No.
06:07Taking it up with the step, finally back into the ring now.
06:10Stone Cold Steve Austin and Mankind going at it.
06:14Stone Cold wants a shot.
06:17Ladies and gentlemen, look at this.
06:18Clothesline misses.
06:19No, no.
06:20He got him.
06:21Hand of the clock.
06:22Let's see how tough Stone Cold, he's tough all right.
06:25Did you see what he did?
06:27That was unbelievable.
06:29Mankind and Stone Cold Steve Austin going at it live.
06:33Who knows the way this one's gonna wind up tonight.
06:36Get up, Mankind, get up.
06:39We're back live, ladies and gentlemen.
06:40And right now, Stone Cold Steve Austin, he was on the perch all right.
06:44This has been unbelievable.
06:45And Stone Cold will be going at it all the way through the, my goodness.
06:49Unbelievable competition here in the WWE app.
06:53And here's what we saw just before the break.
06:54Watch this, watch this.
06:55Splat.
06:59And there have been a lot of splats, likely more to come here in this matchup.
07:03It's a tough man contest.
07:04Kicking things off here tonight, live from New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
07:09It's Monday Night Raw.
07:11And look at Paul Bearer.
07:12Paul Bearer, ladies and gentlemen, escaped with his life just last night.
07:16He certainly did.
07:17Paul Bearer was almost in the clutches of- My gosh.
07:20My gosh.
07:21Just last night, Paul Bearer came with an eyelash of being eliminated by
07:24the awesome Undertaker.
07:25If it hadn't been for the executioner, Paul Bearer would not be here tonight.
07:29And Stone Cold Steve Austin.
07:33On the drop, my goodness, head first to the rail.
07:35Stone Cold Steve Austin is wishing he wasn't here tonight right now.
07:38How do you win a tough man contest?
07:39What do you gotta do, kill the other guy or something?
07:41What's going on here?
07:42Stone Cold Steve Austin and the hitman Brad Hart, who's hit before in a matchup,
07:47that set a new standard for competition in the World Wrestling Federation.
07:51And I think Stone Cold and Mankind are setting another one here tonight.
07:55This is completely out of control, very little action inside the ring.
07:59Who is the toughest man in the WWF?
08:02These two guys, think it's them.
08:05Bret the Hitman Hart, who battled- No, no, no.
08:08No, no, no, no, don't do that.
08:12No, don't take him over the- Can you imagine?
08:16The Hitman Bret Hart, who battled Stone Cold last night in the Survivor Series.
08:21It's a Hitman in action right here next week against Owen Hart.
08:25The Hitman returns to Raw next week against his, well, rotten brother, Owen.
08:32What?
08:33They got a great rivalry.
08:34It'll be great to see Bret Hart back in action right here in the ring next week.
08:38We know Bret Hart's got a date with Psycho Sid we'll talk about later in
08:42the program.
08:43And right now, Mankind dropped the leg.
08:45Paul Bearer asking Mankind to deliver that dribble.
08:48Right.
08:49Wait a minute now.
08:50The Mandible Claw sticking down his throat.
08:53Mankind drives Stone Cold Steve Austin face first to the canvas.
08:58Up on his feet now.
08:59Stone Cold perhaps not for long.
09:01Reversal, hook to rope and then sleeper hold applied.
09:05Austin used that maneuver last night against Bret Hart.
09:08Look at that.
09:10And Mankind driving Austin back into the corner.
09:14And what a tool this matchup is- No.
09:16No, on both men.
09:18What a clothesline.
09:20From the left side.
09:21I think it caught Austin a little bit off guard coming from the left side by Mankind.
09:25And Vader may be thinking that Yokozuna did him a favor by knocking him out of
09:29action for a couple of days if he's watching this matchup.
09:33I can agree with that.
09:34I want to see the looks on your face, McMahon, and yours, Ross.
09:37I guarantee you guys thought that Stone Cold Steve Austin was the toughest man in
09:41the WWE.
09:42Look at this.
09:42Look out.
09:44No.
09:44Hanging onto the apron.
09:45Stone Cold.
09:47No.
09:50Snapped off the top rope and Stone Cold Steve Austin's in trouble.
09:52I think Mankind prune, he's just as tough as Austin.
09:56Austin's- What's he done about that?
09:57Austin's snipped, snapped off that top ring cable.
10:00Austin can heal pain.
10:02Austin hammering away.
10:03Austin, hammering away on Mankind.
10:08You're dragging Mankind off the top.
10:10This looks like a fight of a beer joint in the Skokie.
10:14Look at this.
10:15Austin trying to stop his way to victory.
10:17Come on.
10:20A blatant choke hold by Stone Cold.
10:23He's gonna choke him out.
10:24Obviously, the referee's been instructed to let this one go as far as they want to
10:28take it.
10:28It's a tough man contest.
10:30It's the World Wrestling Federation, we're talking competition.
10:34Stone Cold Steve Austin now with Mankind.
10:38And through the ropes is Mankind.
10:39Stone Cold right after him.
10:41This is not about hammer locks and head locks and suplexes.
10:43This is about seeing how tough somebody is.
10:45These guys have been outside so much, they're gonna have to pay Connecticut
10:48property tax.
10:49Stone Cold and Mankind.
10:52That was face first, right into the steel steps.
10:57Mankind, hot on the trail.
10:58Stone Cold Steve Austin.
11:00Austin, hot on the trail.
11:02A threat to Hitman Hart.
11:03He wants more of the Hitman.
11:06And the Hitman, as we said before, in action next week against Owen Hart.
11:10No, no, look out.
11:12To the back, fair play.
11:14Mankind on the rail.
11:16And the difference perhaps here is that Stone Cold can feel the pain.
11:20I'm not so sure Mankind does.
11:22I think Mankind may be motivated by his own pain.
11:25His scarred body would indicate as such, and he kinda likes it.
11:28That's right, he can feel the pain, but he likes it.
11:30You're right, Ross.
11:32Will we see the Stone Cold Stunner?
11:34All right, here we go.
11:35Austin has Mankind set up now.
11:38Austin, get it ready and, right in the sternum.
11:41This should be all.
11:42Come on, two and Mankind with a kick out.
11:46He's tough.
11:46We can't discount Mankind's ability.
11:48He's the man that has defeated The Undertaker, and
11:51not many people walking the face of the earth can say that.
11:55Stone Cold driving the shoulder repeatedly now into the carcass of Mankind.
12:00Two great competitors going at it live on Monday Night Raw.
12:03Look at this.
12:04Not a carcass yet, McMahon.
12:06Might as well be.
12:08Mankind, a 300 pounder, hanging by a thread, hanging by a knee ligament.
12:14And Stone Cold now, with two handfuls of hair, no, one now.
12:19Stone Cold hammering away on Mankind.
12:22Look at this, Mankind literally hanging upside down and finally down.
12:27Stone Cold reaching for him.
12:28Paul Bearer has left, but he's coming back now, and he's bringing The Executioner.
12:32Wait a minute, what's that about?
12:35The Executioner, whom we saw last night.
12:37That was the man who saved Paul Bearer from the Undertaker's wrath.
12:42The Executioner coming in, going to work on Stone Cold.
12:46Don't tell me it's gonna, a double team, yes.
12:49All right, with a knee.
12:50Mankind struck Austin right in the knee joint.
12:53It's two, no, it's three on one.
12:55And here comes The Undertaker.
12:56Here comes who?
12:57The Undertaker.
12:58Get out of there, Paul Bearer.
12:59Move him out.
13:01Whoa.
13:02The Undertaker would not finish business last night.
13:08Going to work.
13:11The Undertaker.
13:13Watching the double team of Mankind.
13:16Watching as well, no, Austin just clotheslined The Undertaker.
13:23I don't think The Undertaker came to save Steve Austin.
13:26The Undertaker came to get his hands on Paul Bearer and company.
13:30Now you want to get it on, let's get it on.
13:34How tough are you, Stone Cold?
13:38Stone Cold, Steve Austin, may have won this matchup as a result of a disqualification.
13:45The Undertaker coming in to take care of some unfinished business.
13:48And Stone Cold is not thinking about Survivor Series now.
13:52Steve Austin on a mission to beat Bret Hart.
13:56Come hell or high water, here at the Survivor Series.
14:00Both men are fatigued, both men are hurt, this is a war.
14:04Ladies and gentlemen, The Hitman is back.
14:08For tonight, I know I'm the better man.
14:13And I will do anything and everything it takes.
14:17Psycho Sid is the new WWF Champion.
14:20But Shawn Michaels couldn't care less.
14:24How much bigger can it be?
14:26How much more important can it be?
14:27We are at the Survivor Series.
14:29All right, the Nation of Domination set next, ladies and gentlemen.
14:39Yes, Baruch's gonna join us.
14:40Let's go back and take a little bit of a look at the action we saw in a lot of
14:44stages of that matchup, Stone Cold Steve Austin really going at it with Mankind.
14:49Let's look at this replay here.
14:51Yeah, what about when The Undertaker came in?
14:54He got welcomed by the welcoming committee of Stone Cold Steve Austin.
14:57But The Undertaker landed right on his feet and went right back at Austin.
15:01He always does.
15:02And wait a minute, there's a bit of a, is that who I think it is?
15:07Where?
15:07I think it is.
15:09Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not so certain.
15:10I think Ahmed Johnson is walking down the aisle.
15:15And that from our, he's coming down from the crowd.
15:20There's suspicions- Ahmed Johnson is joining us.
15:22Ahmed, he's joining us live, ladies and gentlemen.
15:25And just in time, I think he wants a bird's eye view of what's gonna happen with Baruch.
15:31This could get ugly again.
15:33What's he doing up in the audience with the rest of these morons?
15:35Baruch, Baruch almost in it.
15:37Ahmed's career, the lacerated kidney.
15:41And I believe Ahmed's suspicion is up today, as a matter of fact.
15:46And well, what's this?
15:48Another surprise.
15:49That's not the Nation of Domination.
15:51What's gonna happen here in the World Wrestling Federation?
15:53That's for sure.
15:54Baby.
15:55And here comes Sonny.
15:58What is she doing out here?
15:59Looking good.
16:00Well, she's doing that all right.
16:02Ahmed Johnson has a ringside seat.
16:06And Sonny is coming out here.
16:08Sonny.
16:09Those are two explosive elements here in the World Wrestling Federation for sure.
16:13Sonny, over here.
16:14We're expecting Baruch.
16:15Here's your Uncle Jerry.
16:17Listen to Jim Ross.
16:19I'm glad she was planting those kisses on me and not you, Ross.
16:22No problem.
16:23Listen to what she says about me now.
16:26And here we go.
16:26Now this is what I call a heck of a crowd.
16:30Uh-huh, I know that's right.
16:32Right now I'd like to introduce to you a man that I am so
16:37proud to call a dear friend of mine.
16:41I'll bet.
16:43The leader of the Nation of Domination, Baruch.
16:50We are the Nation of Domination.
16:53The Nation of Domination.
16:55Where's Ahmed Johnson here?
16:56Ahmed Johnson's not that far away.
16:57We're talking about NOD people.
17:00We're talking about high-stepping Nation of Domination.
17:05We are the Nation of Domination.
17:07Alive and in color.
17:08This the man, cuz we're born for it.
17:10She's your mother.
17:11Well, listen to what I'm saying.
17:12This for real, not playing.
17:14Baruch is the man.
17:15So hit your knees and start praying.
17:17Nation of Domination.
17:20I got the power like the band.
17:22The quick flight, the count.
17:23One, two, three.
17:24We are the Nation of Domination.
17:25Put your face on the mat.
17:27You count the stars while the ref counts three.
17:29Hope you like the look of ceilings, cuz that's all you're gonna see.
17:33Nation of Domination.
17:35Of Domination.
17:36We are the Nation of Domination.
17:37Red O.D. is in the house.
17:39Nation of Domination.
17:43Baruch in the house.
17:46N.O.D. is the power.
17:48Nation of Domination.
17:50And joining us from the Nation of Domination, ladies and gentlemen,
17:54he has Baruch and he has a two by four in his hand, if you did not notice that.
17:58And I think the reason he does is because he saw Ahmed Johnson a moment ago.
18:03He knows Ahmed Johnson is seated in this capacity crown.
18:06A little insurance policy, a weapon, in other words.
18:12Nation of Domination is in the house.
18:16By any means necessary.
18:19By any means necessary.
18:20Ahmed Johnson signing a few autographs, but
18:23I think he could very well be doing a heck of a lot more than that.
18:25Ladies and gentlemen, when we return, Baruch in action.
18:29Ahmed Johnson with a front row ringside seat.
18:33And now, Acclaim, makers of the hot new video game WWF In Your House,
18:37presents the Acclaim Slam of the Week.
18:40His debut, Rocky Mania.
18:44Now there's gonna be the man right there, that blue chipper right there.
18:47He's 6'5", 275, with Rocky Mania.
18:51Unbelievable agility.
18:53Yes, sir.
18:54What a way to make your debut with a big show in the Big Apple.
18:58The Slam of the Week was brought to you by Acclaim,
19:01makers of the hot new video game, WWF In Your House.
19:04There goes the neighborhood.
19:08All right, there's Ahmed Johnson looking on, ladies and gentlemen.
19:11Troublemaker.
19:12We're just ready to begin this matchup.
19:13Savio Vega, squaring off against Baruch from the Nation of Domination.
19:17And Baruch can dominate, you no doubt about it.
19:19Absolutely, what a phenomenal athlete.
19:21Have we heard any more about the status of Shawn Michaels?
19:23All we know is he is attempting to get back here after assisting Jose,
19:28back to San Antonio, where we have been told that
19:33Jose is resting comfortably, is all we know.
19:38Drag kick down, nice and in by Savio.
19:39Drag kick, how about it?
19:41Savio Vega comes to get it on, no doubt about it.
19:44Savio Vega right in your face, in this case it's Baruch's face.
19:48You don't have to look for Savio Vega if you're looking for a fight.
19:51I've got to see what we're gonna have here.
19:52It's a night to fight on Monday Night Raw.
19:55To the buckle, Savio Vega moving in now, and yeah, face maneuver.
20:00And Ahmed Johnson is watching every second of this matchup.
20:05Well, somebody else is watching too, and
20:06if I can get you two dual airbags to shut up for a minute.
20:09We can say a word with, have a word with Sonny over here.
20:12Sonny, you look lovely.
20:13Hi guys, how do you like the new combination of Dalmatian and Latex?
20:18You and I are the best looking combination, if you ask me.
20:20How do you like that?
20:21Look at that.
20:22Let's go back to the action, if you don't mind.
20:24All right, Savio Vega now.
20:26Don't we look good together?
20:28I would suggest, Sonny, you look good with anyone.
20:30Not putting you down there, King, but you know what I say, all right?
20:33Well, right now, I think we have to worry about Farouk here.
20:34And Ahmed better pay attention,
20:35because pretty soon the two of them are gonna meet in the ring once again.
20:39And Farouk will prove who is really a true champion in all the wrestling industry.
20:44And that will be the nation's domination.
20:46And what about the big troublemaker, Ahmed,
20:47kind of sitting out in the audience out there?
20:49Off the rope now, wrestling with a clothesline from the near side.
20:52Wide body trap, one, two, and he, no, not a two.
20:56Savio Vega now, and again, Ahmed looking on.
20:59A cover, two, and no.
21:01Ahmed Johnson.
21:04Well, if Farouk has remembered anything I've ever taught him,
21:06because I did bring him into the World Wrestling Federation.
21:09I was his outlet to the World Wrestling Federation.
21:11If he remembers anything I've ever taught him,
21:13then he'll know how to overcome a little bit of punishment by Savio Vega.
21:17I'm not too worried.
21:18But you know what?
21:18I gotta think that with Ahmed Johnson out there in the ringside area,
21:23perhaps it's a little intimidating to Farouk.
21:25Farouk is not only thinking about Savio.
21:27Sonny, I- Farouk is also thinking about Ahmed.
21:29Personally, I think I'm more intimidating standing outside the ring than
21:32Ahmed Johnson, I'm sorry.
21:33Who can concentrate on wrestling with you at ringside?
21:36Yeah, boy. All right.
21:37Off the rope now, Savio Vega.
21:38There you go, big boy.
21:40That one was for me.
21:42By the way, somebody ought to check his ticket stub.
21:44I bet Ahmed Johnson doesn't even have a ticket.
21:45You probably let him in here for free, didn't you, McMahon?
21:47Why don't you go do that?
21:48I'll give you something to do respectively.
21:51You're worried about him.
21:52There's not gonna be any easy pin or any pin at all, perhaps, here.
21:54But Farouk, we go back, take a look at the double feature.
21:56Look at this maneuver.
21:57Yeah, look at Savio.
21:58He thought he ran for the fast one, but he got outsmarted.
22:01Right in the kidneys, that's a message for, I think, Ahmed Johnson.
22:04Look at the focus of Farouk.
22:05Good point, JR.
22:06Right in that kidney. There you go.
22:07Very good point.
22:08And finally, the ruptured kidney has apparently healed or
22:11will be healed in a short period of time.
22:14And there, more damage to the back area.
22:18No, look at, Farouk, look at this.
22:19Farouk giving a salute to Ahmed Johnson.
22:22And he has many followers if you pay attention to the audience.
22:26And Ahmed doesn't seem too happy about it.
22:29He was shaking.
22:29How about this?
22:31Show it to us.
22:32Boy, someday, somewhere, when Farouk and Ahmed finally get together,
22:36it will be the collision of all collisions.
22:40You're just not gonna be able to showboat like that, not with a Savio Vega.
22:45And a shot there by Savio Vega.
22:47Vega picks up the pace a bit.
22:49Vega taking it to the man called Farouk and Ahmed Johnson looking on.
22:53Who knows what's gonna happen here in this matchup if Farouk continues to salute
22:57Ahmed out there in the ringside area.
22:59That could provoke Ahmed to come.
23:02My.
23:03What a suplex.
23:04He's hurt.
23:04Unbelievable.
23:05He's hurt.
23:07We're back everyone for more WWF Raw.
23:09Ahmed Johnson looking on.
23:10Yes, we are live from New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
23:14And Ahmed watching his nemesis, if you would,
23:16Farouk at the moment in control against Savio Vega.
23:20Sonny, he's watching, he's watching Farouk dominate Savio, isn't he?
23:23That's right, I'm about to watch Farouk beat Savio.
23:26And then after Raw, I'm gonna go home and watch the Cowboys beat the Packers.
23:29You wanna come?
23:30Yes.
23:31All right.
23:32What a game that'll be.
23:33Sonny and Farouk apparently still remaining good friends.
23:36Yes, we are.
23:37I wonder if in fact, if you wish now, you really didn't have him under contract.
23:41Well, no, you don't know exactly if I have him under contract or
23:44I don't have him under contract, do you?
23:46I may have leased him out to Clarence Mason.
23:48You don't know my business.
23:49I said, I don't know much of anything.
23:51Well, then let me ask you, is he under contract to you?
23:54Don't answer that.
23:55Don't answer that.
23:55No comment.
23:56Yes.
23:57Yeah.
23:58Ouch.
23:58Unbelievable.
24:00You might need to get Clarence Mason over here and ask for his advice.
24:03Did you see what Farouk just did to Savio Vega?
24:07Unbelievable, devastating action.
24:09He also took his toll on Farouk too, though.
24:12This has been a very intense night.
24:14And of course, the intense new WWF Champion,
24:17Psycho Sid's gonna be here live, and that great new tag team.
24:20There you go, okay.
24:22Shawn Michaels, ladies and gentlemen,
24:24we're still hopeful that he's gonna join us tonight.
24:27Although again, it is doubtful.
24:30After helping Jose Lothario back to San Antonio, Ahmed Johnson has joined us.
24:36Ahmed, unexpected here tonight.
24:39And unwanted.
24:41As far as Farouk is concerned, and that's why Farouk brought that two by four out to
24:45the ringside, I believe, because he knew that Ahmed would win.
24:48One, two, Savio Vega almost gets a victory.
24:51Farouk brought that two by four for protection.
24:54It has, like we said, so intense.
24:55What about the intensity next week, when Bret Hart will be here?
24:58One on one with his brother, Orton.
25:00Yes.
25:02Savio Vega turning this thing back around.
25:05Vega against Farouk.
25:06And as you stated before, JR is gonna have perhaps an in-depth interview with
25:11the new WWF Champion.
25:14He may be Psycho, but call him Champion.
25:16We're talking Sid.
25:17I'm gonna find out if Sid wants to apologize to Shawn Michaels and
25:21Jose Lothario for his actions last night.
25:24They were somewhat deplorable.
25:25Come on, ref, that's a close fist, ref.
25:26Come on.
25:28And some would think Sid has something to apologize for.
25:30Some would think he does not.
25:32How does Shawn Michaels feel about all this?
25:34Hopefully, we'll find out tonight who missed the elbow.
25:38Well, this has been a great competitive WWF matchup.
25:42What's going on in that man's mind right now?
25:44Hate, I can tell you, it's very simple, one word, hate.
25:46Fear.
25:48Ahmed Johnson hates Farouk and anyone associated with Farouk.
25:51He fears Farouk, Jim Ross.
25:53I don't- Everyone fears Farouk.
25:54I don't think so.
25:56Well, I would suggest that Ahmed Johnson better think twice before coming down to
25:59the ringside area.
26:00There we go, come on.
26:00A new nation of domination out there, plus a two by four.
26:03Nonetheless, here he goes, up to the top.
26:05Farouk now, not a good moment.
26:08Farouk's gotta stay on the mat.
26:10A ground attack's what he's looking for, not high risk maneuvers.
26:13It's not his style.
26:15Well, it won't be his style after that.
26:16And Savio Vega's gonna make certain now.
26:18Savio Vega going to the top.
26:20Savio sets up Farouk.
26:22Here we go, going all the way up to the top.
26:24He can't suplex Farouk.
26:25No way.
26:26It can't be possible.
26:28Savio.
26:29My God.
26:31Only in the World Wrestling Federation are you gonna see individuals take a risk
26:34like that.
26:35They both just came barreling down in a pile of humanity, and they just don't care.
26:41You're just throwing your bodies at each other.
26:43Hell, it looked like a car wreck.
26:45Savio set up for the ride.
26:47Off the rope, and a chest.
26:50Vega's gonna win this thing.
26:52You're crazy.
26:53I think Ahmed is intimidating Farouk.
26:56Off the rope now, and he'll kick nicely down.
26:59That's a great move by Savio.
27:01Hook the leg.
27:02Come on, Farouk.
27:02Boy, could he make the cover?
27:03Farouk, come on.
27:04Sonny, you think you need to go up there?
27:05I don't know.
27:06I may need to let him hit.
27:07Look out.
27:08Talk to the outside.
27:09Not anymore.
27:10Told you he could do it.
27:12Savio Vega, on the outside.
27:14Farouk moving back down.
27:15Wait a minute.
27:16Look at this.
27:16No.
27:17Farouk got two by four.
27:19And the referee can see it.
27:20Savio Vega.
27:22Uh-oh.
27:22Wait a minute.
27:23Wait a minute.
27:23What's going on?
27:24That's why.
27:25Ahmed's trying to do his work.
27:26Farouk, Farouk, pay attention.
27:27Farouk, pay attention.
27:30Here is your winner, Farouk Ahmed.
27:33No.
27:34Oh, no.
27:36Farouk, help your man, Farouk.
27:38Come on.
27:39Farouk.
27:40Ahmed.
27:41Two by four.
27:42And clean it out.
27:46Guys, get out of there.
27:47Come on, get out.
27:52Oh, my god.
27:54That was an uncaged animal right there.
27:56Ahmed Johnson is ready to dismantle, to dismember Farouk
28:00or anybody that gets in his way.
28:01Hey, but how about if I look over here?
28:03I wasn't a part of that.
28:03You know that, right, King?
28:04Don't worry.
28:05I'll be there for you.
28:06I had no part of that.
28:07All the members of the Nation of Domination
28:09are scattering all over this arena.
28:11Farouk must be in the crowd somewhere.
28:13Oh, my god.
28:15Ahmed Johnson has scattered the Nation of Domination.
28:19Hide, Sonny.
28:21I'll hide behind you.
28:23I had nothing to do with that.
28:26I did not provoke that whatsoever.
28:28I am innocent.
28:29Catch him.
28:33And Farouk, Farouk, having words with Ahmed,
28:39if only Ahmed could hear him.
28:45Hey, wait a minute.
28:46Ahmed just might have words for Farouk.
28:49Farouk, you know what, boy?
28:52I laid in bed for five months because you
28:56jumped me from behind, punk.
28:58You don't ever put your hands on me.
29:01So what you're going to do, what's going to happen
29:05is you're going to pay.
29:09It's payback time.
29:11You're going down.
29:14You're going down.
29:17You're going down.
29:19You're going down.
29:20Listen to this capacity crowd.
29:22Unbelievable.
29:23You're going down.
29:24You're going down.
29:26You're going down.
29:29Ahmed Johnson.
29:32And this crowd is on a fever pitch.
29:34And here goes Ahmed.
29:36Well done, gentlemen.
29:37Stay with us for more Monday Night Raw.
29:41Samurai Ninja.
29:42Unstoppable.
29:43Headstone.
29:44Uncontrollable.
29:46Cyber Fist.
29:47Unbelievable.
29:48Tiger Ninja.
29:50Incomparable.
29:51And now, the Milton Bradley Karate Fighters Holiday Tournament.
29:56What a matchup we have for you today.
29:58The man who won't be president, Mr. Backlund,
30:01taking on one of the first ladies of the World Wrestling Federation.
30:04I'm talking about Sonny.
30:05I like the way Sonny can twist those knobs.
30:08All right, let's take you to some pregame comments.
30:11Young lady, your accoutrement has been living a slovenlier lifestyle.
30:18But Headstone here is going to put some morality into your life.
30:22You got that?
30:24Stand up when I'm talking to you.
30:26I tell you to sit down.
30:29Mr. Backlund looks tight.
30:30Let's go to the arena for the play-by-play.
30:32Here's our very own Carve Albert.
30:35All right, Todster.
30:37Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
30:38Backlund calling for time.
30:40I'm not ready.
30:41I'm going to beat you anyway.
30:42Sonny somehow keeping her composure.
30:44Stop.
30:45No, I'll never stop until I beat you, Mr. Backlund.
30:47Backlund out of control.
30:49Yes.
30:50And it counts.
30:51I won the match.
30:52Nanny, nanny, nanny.
30:54Are you kidding?
30:55I didn't lose.
30:56Stonehead lost.
30:57And don't try to comeove me, young lady.
31:00Let's take a look at the replay our crack staff has put together.
31:05A flying leg kick.
31:07A spectacular move.
31:10Mr. Backlund has lost it.
31:12I don't think he ever had it to lose.
31:14Well, Sonny advances to the second round.
31:17Backlund is still going off.
31:24Tonight, Monday Night Raw brought to you by Foot Action.
31:26For every action, there's Foot Action.
31:28And by Snickers.
31:29Now with even more peanuts.
31:30Tons of them.
31:32And by Starburst.
31:34Fruit Twist.
31:35Take a bite and twist up the juice.
31:38Standing by right now, ladies and gentlemen, there you see it.
31:41The World Wrestling Federation championship belt strapped around the waist of Psycho Sid.
31:45Jim Ross will interview the new WWF champion momentarily.
31:50However, now is a good time to reflect upon the events of just last night.
31:55A grueling matchup indeed between Sid and Shawn Michaels.
32:00As a matter of fact, we wondered if Psycho Sid would snap.
32:06Or win, perhaps.
32:08Sid did. He snapped.
32:10Sid had a problem with a cameraman earlier on.
32:13Sid grabs the camera right off the cameraman's shoulder.
32:16And from there, he looks at it as if he really doesn't know what to do with it.
32:20And from there, Sid strikes Jose Lothario, who was standing there on the apron.
32:25Strikes him in the chest.
32:26Jose Lothario comes reeling back.
32:29And then from there, Jose Lothario tried to get up.
32:32And then experienced chest pain.
32:34Which certainly caught the attention of the champion, Shawn Michaels.
32:37Who then came to the aid of Jose Lothario.
32:40And then unfortunately, Sid came right back out.
32:43Grabbed Shawn Michaels.
32:44Threw him back into the ring.
32:46Michaels then, in an attempt to flying cross body block Sid, inadvertently strikes the official.
32:52And then from there, intentionally striking the new champion right on the butt of the jaw.
32:59That sweet chin music had landed.
33:01But rather than attempting to pin Sid, what does Michaels do?
33:05He goes back out to the aid of Jose Lothario.
33:07Who appeared at that time to be in full cardiac arrest.
33:11And look what Sid did.
33:12Yes, Sid drives that very same camera that he struck Jose Lothario with in the chest.
33:18Drives it down into the back of Shawn Michaels.
33:20And then there was only one thing left for Sid to do.
33:22He threw Michaels back in.
33:24Being the opportunist that he is.
33:26And drove Michaels down to the canvas with this-
33:29Powerbomb.
33:30Unbelievable powerbomb.
33:31One, two, three.
33:32We have a new WWF champion.
33:35As we stated before, we are hopeful that Shawn Michaels is gonna join us here live.
33:40It's doubtful that he will.
33:41He accompanied Jose Lothario back to San Antonio.
33:45Jose Lothario refused medical attention last night in Madison Square Garden.
33:50Refused to go to the hospital.
33:51Hopefully he is resting comfortably as we speak at home.
33:55Nonetheless, if we can reflect back on those events and reflect back on what kind of a reign-
33:59What kind of a champion was Shawn Michaels?
34:02Not that he won't be again.
34:03Don't count him out.
34:04Michaels, obviously the most charismatic WWF champion we've ever had.
34:09Certainly the most flamboyant.
34:10The greatest showman, perhaps, in the history of the WWF.
34:13But a lot of people don't like him.
34:15Let's face it.
34:16He dances.
34:17He has long hair.
34:18Shawn Michaels is somewhat of a ladies' man.
34:20He's cocky and he's arrogant, McMahon.
34:22Alright, go ahead. I'll even give you that.
34:23That's right.
34:24But- He's conceited.
34:25Last night, Shawn Michaels proved something, I think, to everyone.
34:29When Michaels had the opportunity, perhaps, to retain the WWF title after the superkick,
34:35Michaels went outside to aid his mentor, Jose Lothario.
34:40To help Jose Lothario, in essence, he cared more about his fellow man than he did the WWF championship.
34:49In my mind, that speaks volumes for Shawn Michaels.
34:53Yes, he may be a ladies' man, but considering what he did last night,
34:58Shawn Michaels proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, as far as I'm concerned,
35:02he's a man's man.
35:04And deserving of a rematch with Sid.
35:07Well, I'll grant you that.
35:09He had compassion.
35:10But look what it got him, McMahon.
35:12That's why I say, you can't afford compassion.
35:15You gotta win it off.
35:16Michaels had stated he would do anything possible to retain the WWF championship.
35:22And Sid had stated earlier on as well, he would do anything possible to take it away from Shawn Michaels.
35:28Yeah, and Shawn Michaels didn't do everything.
35:31He needed to turn his back on Jose Lothario to retain that title.
35:35And he didn't do it.
35:39Well, they say all is fair in love and war.
35:41But that was definitely unfair to a certain extent last night.
35:44Whether you like Shawn Michaels or you don't.
35:46Or whether you like Psycho Sid.
35:48Who will join us, ladies and gentlemen, in just a moment.
35:52And here comes a tag team combination that really made a name for themselves last night at the Survivor Series.
36:00Doug Furnas and Philip Lafon.
36:02Lafon from Paris, France.
36:04And Doug Furnas, a power lifter from the good old US of A.
36:07What an extraordinary tag team combination they made just last night.
36:12And you know, I want to make an impression as well here tonight on Raw.
36:16And by the way, ladies and gentlemen, Captain Louis Albano is making his way over.
36:21Perhaps to get a good look at Furnas and Lafon.
36:24Who knows, Albano could come back out of retirement and manage Furnas and Lafon.
36:29Albano, of course, Lady Dirty is.
36:31Hall of Famer inducted Saturday night.
36:33It was an unbelievable event.
36:35The WWF Hall of Fame.
36:37You should have been there.
36:38It was extraordinary.
36:39Does he know Spanish?
36:40He's getting on with the Spanish commentators over there.
36:43Alright, starting things off, we have Philip Lafon against Leif Cassidy.
36:48Lafon and Furnas, extraordinary in terms of their physical prowess.
36:54Taking nothing away from Mr. Cassidy, for that matter.
36:56Bob Holly.
36:57Should be an outstanding matchup.
36:58Spanish.
36:59We are hopeful.
37:00No Spanish.
37:01Wait a minute, I think we can hear the Spanish commentator.
37:20Wow.
37:21I don't know that-
37:22He's multilingual.
37:23Or something like that.
37:25Armbar.
37:26Driving Leif Cassidy down to the canvas.
37:29Lafon and Furnas.
37:30Excellent.
37:31And every technical skill in terms of, as well, submission maneuvers.
37:38Count of two and nice bridge there on the part of Cassidy.
37:42Unquestionably, the British Bulldog and Owen Hart, ladies and gentlemen,
37:46who met Lafon and Furnas just last night at Survivor Series.
37:49They had to be impressed.
37:51Very impressed with this extraordinary new combination.
37:54Oh!
37:55Did you see that through the ropes?
37:57That foot on the butt of the jaw.
37:59Wow!
38:00What a maneuver by Lafon.
38:02Philip Lafon, the Frenchman.
38:04And Bob Holly helps, well, sort of helps his partner back in
38:08just so he can make the tag.
38:10I still want to know, is this Philip Lafon?
38:12Is he any relation to Karl Lafon?
38:14It's not Lafon, it's Lafon.
38:16Oh.
38:17You and WC Fields.
38:18Oh, yes!
38:20All right.
38:21Standing by right now, ladies and gentlemen, I think we have.
38:23There we go.
38:24Yes.
38:25Gentlemen, were you impressed with the skills of Lafon and Furnas last night?
38:30Let's start with you, Bulldog.
38:31Yeah, we were impressed with the British Bulldog and Owen Hart.
38:34We let our guard down.
38:36They got a victory.
38:37It's the last time in the World Wrestling Federation
38:39they're going to get a victory on the British Bulldog
38:41and the King of Hearts, Owen Hart.
38:43That was tag team elimination competition,
38:45not just a normal tag team match.
38:47And I would suggest you gentlemen would do considerably better.
38:49Would you not, Owen Hart?
38:50You know, McMahon, I'm a little pissed about losing to those guys.
38:53I don't rate them as good as they were yesterday.
38:55They got a lucky match.
38:57We're not into Survivor Series.
38:58We're into tag team wrestling together.
39:00All right.
39:01And Mr. Mason?
39:02We're not worried about our partners and their other opponents.
39:03Mr. Mason?
39:04I guarantee you this.
39:05And they're not.
39:06Look out!
39:07Fred Smith and the worthless Oki.
39:08Next time we get you guys, we're fighting champions.
39:10We'll put our belts on the line.
39:11Oh, will you do that?
39:12And I guarantee you, it'll be a different result.
39:14And they're not just going to walk into the World Wrestling Federation
39:16and get a title shot immediately.
39:18You've got to climb the ladder of success, just like these guys did.
39:21All right.
39:22And then you'll get your title shot.
39:23I see.
39:24Thank you very much.
39:25They have to prove themselves.
39:26Thank you very much.
39:27I don't think it's going to take much for Philip.
39:28Oh, Lafon.
39:29Oh, my goodness.
39:30And Doug Furnas to prove it.
39:31One, two.
39:32And Lafon, almost, with a cover and a count of three.
39:35Again, set up for the ride.
39:37Lief Cassidy.
39:38Oh, my.
39:39Kicked into chest area.
39:40And now Cassidy takes over.
39:41A reminder, Psycho Sid coming up next.
39:43Tag team company.
39:44Who knows?
39:45I'm in when we return.
39:46Stay with us.
39:47We're back and we're live, ladies and gentlemen, from New Haven, Connecticut.
39:50Monday Night Raw continuing.
39:52Tag team action here with Doug Furnas and Philip Lafon,
39:55two individuals who are very, very impressive.
39:57And their first outing in a World Wrestling Federation
39:59just last night at the Survivor Series.
40:01And the unusual combination of Harley and Cassidy teaming up.
40:05And it might have been quite effective.
40:06Drop kick nicely done.
40:08Into a cover.
40:09One, two.
40:10And a kick out there by Lafon.
40:11Yeah, guys changing partners just like Albert Bell.
40:15Changing teams.
40:16He signed with the Chicago White Sox today.
40:18$50 million?
40:19Yeah.
40:20What about a contract like that for me, McMahon?
40:22I see.
40:23We have a bad connection.
40:24And by the way, standing by as we speak in a moment,
40:27he's going to be coming down the ringside.
40:29We're talking about the new World Wrestling Federation champion, Psycho Sid.
40:32And again, it is doubtful that Shawn Michaels will make it back in time
40:37here in time, brother, as we're live.
40:40For Michaels has escorted Jose back to San Antonio.
40:44But he's trying to get here, right?
40:46He is, indeed.
40:48Like he's trying to win or retain the title last night.
40:51And hopefully we'll have an update on the physical condition
40:54of Jose Lothario next week if you'll join us.
40:57And I might add, I'm sure we'll be hearing from Shawn Michaels.
41:00We'll know what his psychological condition is.
41:02I'm sure he is angry.
41:03Look out, Furnas.
41:04Whoa.
41:05Furnas pulling everybody over.
41:07Bob Holly set up for the ride.
41:09Oh.
41:10Doug Furnas with a drop kick.
41:11What a drop kick.
41:12Into a cover.
41:13We have a count.
41:14A count of two is all he can get.
41:15Doug Furnas and Philip LaFont putting it together in tag team action.
41:19Yikes.
41:20Whoa.
41:21Frankensteiner into a pinning competition.
41:22And look out.
41:23Leif Cassidy in there saving his partner Bob Holly
41:27and risking disqualification.
41:30And here we go with the tag now.
41:31Leif Cassidy back.
41:32Oh.
41:33A clothesline.
41:34Oh, my goodness.
41:37Philip LaFont and Doug Furnas very impressive in their first outing
41:41in Survivor Series in the WWF.
41:43And very impressive at the moment as well.
41:45Hey.
41:46How about that?
41:47One, two.
41:48Oh, my goodness.
41:49Cassidy almost there with a pin.
41:51Leif Cassidy pretty impressive too.
41:53Yes, I'll get you that.
41:54Next week as well, ladies and gentlemen, the Hitman Bret Hart,
41:57the one and the only.
41:58He's back.
41:59What kind of condition is he in?
42:01You judge for yourself when he squares off against his brother
42:04next week here on Raw.
42:06Just what I told you.
42:07Bret Hart back to try to steal the spotlight.
42:10Whoa.
42:11Did you see that?
42:12Uncover.
42:13Uncover.
42:14And a victory.
42:15Wow.
42:17Here are your winners, Doug Furnas and Philip LaFont.
42:23Where's Jim Ross when you need him?
42:24What do you think that was called?
42:25I don't know.
42:26If it's called successful, we'll take another look at it now.
42:29Here we go.
42:30Watch this.
42:31Oh, watch your neck.
42:32Oh, my goodness.
42:34Driving the neck down.
42:35Oh, they mean business.
42:37They're going to be around for a while, ladies and gentlemen.
42:39No doubt about that.
42:40Doug Furnas and Philip LaFont are definitely successful here tonight on Raw.
42:45Standing by as we speak, ladies and gentlemen, there he is.
42:48Here's Ross.
42:49The new World Wrestling Federation champion.
42:52And using Mr. Ross' hangie to polish up the belt,
42:56he's going to be walking out here in about 30 seconds.
43:00Steve Austin on a mission to beat Bret Hart
43:04to the towel or high water here at the Survivor Series.
43:08Both men are fatigued.
43:10Both men are hurt.
43:11This is a war.
43:12Ladies and gentlemen, the Hitman is back.
43:18For tonight, I know I'm the better man.
43:21And I will do anything and everything it takes.
43:25Psycho Sid is the new WWF champion.
43:28But Shawn Michaels could care less.
43:32How much bigger can it be?
43:34How much more important can it be?
43:36We are at the Survivor Series.
43:48And ladies and gentlemen, here he comes.
43:51Here he comes, the new World Wrestling Federation champion.
43:57A monster of a man.
44:01Listen to this reaction.
44:09Wow.
44:21Unquestionably the most intense WWF champion to ever wear the crown.
44:27Psycho Sid.
44:31You wonder if Michaels will show up here tonight.
44:35Again, we've got a loose downfall.
44:37And what will Sid say?
44:38We're going to find out.
44:39Will he apologize to Jose Lothario?
44:42Who knows?

45:25Next up, Milton Bradley Karate Fighters presents
45:27In Your House Live!
45:29December 15th, from West Palm Beach, Florida.
45:33It's about time.
45:34Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of the World Wrestling Federation Champion,
45:39Psycho Sid!
45:41Yeah!
45:47Sid, first of all, congratulations.
45:50What a tremendous victory last night.
45:52All be it controversial.
45:54You had thousands upon thousands of fans in Madison Square Garden
45:57that were cheering you on.
45:59A lot of folks said it could never happen.
46:01That you were too unstable.
46:03But that was not the case.
46:04You are the man.
46:05It is your time.
46:07But do you have any remorse over your actions last night
46:11as it relates to Shawn Michaels or the 62-year-old Jose Lathario?
46:15I've got to say no.
46:17And the reason why is because Jose, a man I have great respect for,
46:22but you put your ass on the apron.
46:25And then you became part of the game.
46:29And then when you play the game with the man,
46:32then only misery can come with that.
46:36What about Shawn Michaels?
46:38What about a rematch with the Heartbreak Kid?
46:41Yeah!
46:42Heartbreak Kid, you want a rematch?
46:45You got it!
46:46I beat you once!
46:48And the next time I'll beat you again!
46:51Because I am!
46:57Because I am the man!
47:00I am the master and the ruler of the world!
47:06Sid, the superstars are lining up to challenge you.
47:09Vader, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker,
47:13and on December 15th, the legendary Bret the Hitman Hart
47:18will go one-on-one with you for the WWF title.
47:22Are you going to be a fighting champion?
47:25I'll tell you something.
47:27I was never going to wrestle again
47:29These people called me back!
47:32These people made me a champion!
47:36And for these people, I will be a fighting champion!
47:43What about Bret Hart specifically?
47:47He's looking to regain the WWF title for the fourth time.
47:53Bret, my friend.
47:57You're trying to make opportunity.
48:01You're trying to make reputation through going through this door.
48:06Well, your wrestling comeback in the World Wrestling Federation
48:14will end like that on December 15th.
48:19Because you have to face me, Bretman.
48:22Hitman.
48:24You have to face me.
48:27The master.
48:30The game is simple, my friend.
48:32Two men enter.
48:34One man survives.
48:36And on December 15th, when the snow clears,
48:42I will be standing.
48:44For I am the master.
48:46And I am the ruler of the world.
48:50Your new World Wrestling Federation champion.
48:54The Hitman heard it.
48:56Shawn Michaels no doubt will hear it.
48:58Who knows what's going to happen in the World Wrestling Federation, ladies and gentlemen.
49:02Who knows what's going to happen next week when you have WWF Raw.
49:08The Hitman Bret Hart goes one on one with his brother.
49:11Join us next week.
