00:00:00Two nights ago, the Legion of Doom's long and rocky journey back to the top of
00:00:05the WWF reached another fork in the road, courtesy of the New Age Outlaws.
00:00:11And now the New Age Outlaws, with a two on one attack on Road Warrior,
00:00:16Hulk, and into that steel dumpster.
00:00:19Look out, Hulk being thrown viciously into that dumpster.
00:00:25And the New Age Outlaws have Hulk trapped inside that dumpster.
00:00:31It's two on one with the Quebecers both there against Animal.
00:00:34And once again, the odds against the Legion of Doom, I cannot believe this.
00:00:38Animal's grabbing a chair, here comes Animal, there's Hulk.
00:00:44Hulk and Animal now chasing the New Age Outlaws, but this match is still in progress.
00:00:50Ref's laying the count on him.
00:00:51The Quebecers are gonna win this one, the LOD's gonna be counted out.
00:00:55Now is the time for the LOD to put to bed the rumors of their demise,
00:01:01and to silence the critics who've said they have lost a step.
00:01:05Now is the time for the Road Warriors to stake their claim as the greatest tag team of all time.
00:01:12Now is the time for Hawk and Animal.
00:01:16It's the New Age Outlaws defending the tag titles against the LOD.
00:01:20Next.
00:01:21Here we go.
00:01:23Here you go.
00:01:24Another time for over my place is to be tratied.

00:01:26So the spoiled ex just headed on the path.

00:01:30Yes!
00:01:31Let me be mocked.
00:01:31And...
00:01:32We will hack.
00:01:32Nor be able to take the소를 for the past.
00:01:33While it becomes a level.
00:01:33Anything lets all be taken.

00:01:38You know, will be a way to world as the starting teams.
00:01:39Let's cease.
00:01:40Theå±± has to pull away from the Lebens.
00:01:41Top man.
00:01:41Shoots were great.
00:01:43Drop over every hours.
00:01:43You know.
00:01:44It's surreal.
00:01:45The blue cars was great.
00:01:46Elizabeth joins us.
00:01:47To the stars and not enough sky
00:01:53What has mine authority in your eyes?
00:02:17From deep in the heart of Texas, this is WWF Raw, emanating tonight from the sold-out
00:02:36heart of Texas Coliseum in Waco, Texas.
00:02:40And what a way to kick off tonight's broadcast.
00:02:43You didn't know?
00:02:48Your ass better call somebody.
00:02:55The WWF Tag Team Champions, what a pivotal matchup.
00:02:59What a huge matchup for the New Age Outlaws.
00:03:02The New Age Outlaws smell blood in the water when it comes to the LOD.
00:03:07Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages,
00:03:11the World Wrestling Federation proudly brings to you its Tag Team Champions of the world.
00:03:19The Road Dogg, Jesse James, Badass Billy Gunn, the New Age Outlaws.
00:03:26You know, action here in the World Wrestling Federation is 140 boxes and a wool sock, just like Waco.
00:03:39So, even though we are minus a dumpster, when we get done with our opponents, the OLD.
00:03:52We are gonna sweep their careers, not under the rug like we did the other two old fossils,
00:03:58but off into a dumpster.
00:04:03So get their walkers and their wheelchairs oiled up and bring them on down.
00:04:10The brass confidence of the New Age Outlaws against the smash-mouth experience of the Legion of Doom.
00:04:17And Tag Team Gold is going to be on the line.
00:04:20And their opponents from Chicago, Illinois, at a combined weight of 574 pounds, and a boy.
00:04:29Look out, here we go, and a little hard, not waiting for the bell in the ring.
00:04:32All four men in the ring, the WWF Tag Team titles on the line.
00:04:36The New Age Outlaws, the champions against the former two-time WWF Tag Team champs,
00:04:41the Legion of Doom.
00:04:42Tonight is the night for the LOD.
00:04:44Road Dogg ripped off the ropes, Animal catches it with a shoulder.
00:04:47Listen to this crowd in Waco.
00:04:50Uh-oh, look out.
00:04:54Animal with a quick cover, hooks the leg, and a save by Billy Gunn.
00:04:59Boy, we would have had new champions right there if not for the save of Billy Gunn.
00:05:03The LOD out of Rough Road as of late.
00:05:05Road Dogg now whipped into the ropes.
00:05:06There's the Double Team.
00:05:07The LOD seem to be missing something.
00:05:10They seem to be out of sync.
00:05:11What a pivotal match for the Legion of Doom.
00:05:13Hawk now hammering on Road Dogg and the Legion of Doom with that smash-mouth style.
00:05:18That's what brought them to the dance.
00:05:20And they've been dancing to the same drummer for about 15 years.
00:05:24Oh, and it's Sir Gary.
00:05:26Hawk, what a move that time on Road Dogg.
00:05:28A win here tonight for the LOD, the critics, and their own questions.
00:05:32Can't be ready to rest.
00:05:35Hawk now in control of this match-up.
00:05:37It was the New Age Outlaws who took the tag team belts from the Legion of Doom a few months ago.
00:05:42And there's Road Dogg right out in front of us now.
00:05:47Hawk not waiting for anything.
00:05:49Look out.
00:05:51Big right hand.
00:05:52What an atmosphere here tonight.
00:05:54This crowd is hot.
00:05:56Oh, man.
00:05:58Billy from behind.
00:06:00Now taking control of Hawk.
00:06:03How important, JR, is this match-up for the Legion of Doom?
00:06:06Well, they wanna dispel all these critics.
00:06:08They wanna answer questions themselves.
00:06:10There's a lot of self-imposed pressure to produce, to win, to even the score with the New Age Outlaws.
00:06:16But perhaps more importantly, to rise again at the top of the tag team mountain here in the World Wrestling Federation.
00:06:23A lot of self-imposed pressure on Hawk and Animal.
00:06:26Listen to the crowd in Waco as the 270 pounder from Austin, Texas, Billy Gunn goes to work.
00:06:33And he'll tag in his tag team partner, the Road Dogg.
00:06:36Victimized by the numbers game on so many occasions, including last Saturday night.
00:06:40I like the LODs odds if it stays two on two.
00:06:45Road Dogg now going to work on Hawk.
00:06:49The referee now distracted.
00:06:51And now Billy Gunn and Road Dogg with the double team.
00:06:54Never underestimate the New Age Outlaws.
00:06:56They've been given their opportunity to shine, to make something of themselves.
00:07:00And they're doing just that.
00:07:01They are the tag team champions.
00:07:02Remember, they're the same two men that almost ended Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie's careers in that fatal dumpster ride.
00:07:09Here's the cover by Billy Gunn.
00:07:10There's two, but a kick out somehow by Hawk.
00:07:13Billy Gunn, a great athlete.
00:07:15He's held the WWF tag team titles on four separate occasions.
00:07:20And now he's in control of Hawk.
00:07:22A lot of momentum in the tag team division here in this title match.
00:07:26Who's gonna walk to WrestleMania as the tag team champions?
00:07:30The winners will walk in just five weeks away, gentlemen.
00:07:33WrestleMania 14, March 29 on pay-per-view.
00:07:35And speaking of WrestleMania, the latest mega sports celebrity to join Mike Tyson at WrestleMania will be announced tonight.
00:07:42Plus DX is gonna make a major announcement regarding WrestleMania tonight as well.
00:07:47Hawk trying to make a comeback there and Billy Gunn caught him in the midsection with that big knee.
00:07:52The New Age Outlaws so quick to double team, so quick on their opponents.
00:07:57It's about isolation.
00:07:58It's about isolating one man from his partner.
00:08:01And that's exactly what you're seeing here with Hawk being isolated from Animal.
00:08:04Here comes Billy now, going in for the kill.
00:08:06He caught him with the right hand.
00:08:08What a forearm by Billy Gunn.
00:08:11No doubt that Billy Gunn and the Road Dogg are the quicker team here.
00:08:16The back of Hawk's head just smacked the forehead of Billy Gunn.
00:08:22And now Hawk desperately needs to make a tag to Animal.
00:08:26The crowd really behind the Legion of Doom.
00:08:29For 15 years, the greatest tag team this sport has seen.
00:08:32And here's the tag, and here comes Animal, going to work now on Road Dogg.
00:08:36Big right hand, now he catches Billy Gunn.
00:08:38Road Dogg again and then Billy again.
00:08:40Animal's cleaning house.
00:08:43Gunn whipped off the ropes, Animal with the big shoulder.
00:08:46What a tackle.
00:08:50LOD now has taken over with their power.
00:08:53Nothing but straight ahead, Smash Mouth style.
00:08:56No high risk, and the Doomsday Device, if the LOD hits this one,
00:09:00we'll have new tag team champions.
00:09:02Hawk on the top ropes now.
00:09:04He caught it.
00:09:05It should be over.
00:09:06It should be over.
00:09:07Animal goes for the cover.
00:09:09But the referee, the referee distracted Billy Gunn from behind.
00:09:12Hawk, for whatever reason, a step slow getting out of the ring,
00:09:15and referee Earl Hebner did the right thing.
00:09:17The LOD should win the- Wait a minute.
00:09:19Watch that belt right in the head.
00:09:21Billy Gunn, the referee's back was turned.
00:09:24Just smacked Animal right in the face with a title belt.
00:09:27It's over.
00:09:29The New Age Outlaws retain the tag titles.
00:09:33Here are your winners and still World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions,
00:09:39The New Age Outlaws.
00:09:42They had the titles in their hands.
00:09:44They could smell the win.
00:09:45The Legion of Doom thwarted it once again.
00:09:50How frustrating this has gotta be for Animal and Hawk.
00:09:54And somehow the New Age Outlaws have dodged the bullet.
00:09:58And obviously Hawk and Animal with a miscommunication there.
00:10:01And there you see Hawk and Animal very, very upset and distraught.
00:10:06And wait a minute.
00:10:07Come on now.
00:10:08No, what is this?
00:10:10Can't believe what we're seeing here.
00:10:14These two men are like brothers and they're fighting like mortal enemies.
00:10:19Hawk and Animal have known each other since they were seven years old.
00:10:24Growing up in Minnesota together.
00:10:26We knew the pressure was intense, but come on guys.
00:10:31These officials, wait a minute.
00:10:36Animal not to be restrained now.
00:10:39Animal and Hawk attacking each other again.
00:10:43This is absolutely shocking.
00:10:47These two have teamed together for years and years.
00:10:51JR, you've said it on many occasions.
00:10:54They're like brothers, closer than brothers.
00:10:57Two men that grew up together and certainly grew up in the game together.
00:11:02And this is a real sad and shocking turn of events here.
00:11:10The crowd chanting LOD, LOD in hopes perhaps of these two men clasping hands
00:11:15and putting this behind them.
00:11:17But it looks as if that's not to be.
00:11:19Well, folks, we're gonna take a break and try to get this all cleaned up.
00:11:24I can't, well, wait a minute.
00:11:26Animal going back in again, now come on.
00:11:28This crowd is stunned.
00:11:33I can't speak for you guys, but I can't believe this is absolutely shocking.
00:11:39I mean, I've been around these guys for their whole career and nothing like this has ever happened.
00:11:47I guess we just never knew how intense the pressure was for them to be driven to this point.
00:11:52Obviously a frustrating situation for both Hawk and Animal.
00:11:57When they returned to the World Wrestling Federation,
00:11:59they said they wanted to win back the WWF Tag Team titles.
00:12:03You gotta wonder if those looks in their face are looks of anger or looks of sadness.
00:12:09What a blockbuster story here tonight.
00:12:12Welcome back to WWF Raw.
00:12:17It is a shocking night so far.
00:12:19This happened just moments ago.
00:12:21The Legion of Doom challenging the New Age Outlaws for the Tag Team Championship.
00:12:25And it looked as if after the doomsday device that the LOD had the match won in the tag titles.
00:12:31Hawk made a simple mental error.
00:12:32Anybody can make them, but he paid for that.
00:12:35And then where the referee's back turned, you see the deciding blow.
00:12:39The opportunistic New Age Outlaws upsetting the LOD and then the real story of this match.
00:12:45From there, the frustration boiled over between Animal and Hawk.
00:12:48It's mounted for weeks, but we never thought it would come to this.
00:12:52Together for over 15 years as a team, almost their entire lives as friends,
00:12:57boiled over into frustration and anger.
00:13:00An unprecedented scene that apparently JR is not over.
00:13:03Ladies and gentlemen, we just got word from the locker room area that this melee is still erupting.
00:13:08We hope to talk to the LOD, either Hawk or Animal or both, as soon as we can.
00:13:13But this crowd is still in shock.
00:13:15JR, as am I, I just cannot believe that it all came down to this.
00:13:19I'll tell you what, they've always been one of my favorite teams, the Legion of Doom.
00:13:22I just hope that this isn't permanent.
00:13:33The following contest is scheduled for one fall at a 20 minute time limit.
00:13:38Making his way to the ring from Sacramento, California.
00:13:41Weighing in at 243 pounds, the world's most dangerous man, Ken Shamrock.
00:13:51Ken Shamrock getting his game face on, finding his zone.
00:13:54And of course, Shamrock on his way to WrestleMania as are all of us.
00:14:00The Intercontinental title awaits, Ken Shamrock.
00:14:04Shamrock in the Rock at WrestleMania 14, just five weeks from now.
00:14:09And his opponent being accompanied to the ring by James E. Cornette from Music City,
00:14:17USA.
00:14:18Weighing in at 230 pounds, he is the NWA North American Champion, Jeff Jerry.
00:14:28This is a non-title matchup, by the way.
00:14:31Jarrett and Cornette refusing to put the NWA North American title on the line,
00:14:36even though the NWA Tag Team Championship will be decided a little bit later here tonight.
00:14:42Certainly want to remind all of our great fans up in Canada, watching us on TSN,
00:14:49that TSN's off the record with special guest WWF owner Vince McMahon will air tomorrow night
00:14:55and Wednesday night at 6 o'clock on TSN.
00:14:59And I understand it is gonna be a no-hose-barred question and answer conversation.
00:15:05It's gonna be lively, that's for sure, Tuesday, Wednesday at 6 on TSN.
00:15:08And I gotta thank all the great fans that turned out this weekend, both in Toronto at the Sky Dome,
00:15:13and Sunday right there in Meadowlands at the Continental Airlines Arena.
00:15:17Ken Shamrock got a huge reaction in both places, and thanks to all the fans that joined us.
00:15:21Yeah, Shamrock has been in a zone.
00:15:23He's been on a roll as of late.
00:15:25As JR mentioned, a dated WrestleMania against The Rock for the Intercontinental title.
00:15:29And there's the NWA North American Champion, Jeff Jarrett, set to kick things off here with Ken Shamrock.
00:15:35Jarrett just 48 hours ago met Owen Hart for the European Championship,
00:15:39was very impressive in that matchup before the NWA got involved.
00:15:43Nice takedown by Jeff Jarrett.
00:15:45JR, I think right here, we're looking obviously at the future of the World Wrestling Federation.
00:15:50Well, certainly if you're referring to Ken Shamrock, I think you're right.
00:15:54Jim Cornette, all of the body shots, one of the world's most dangerous man.
00:15:58Cornette may have a difference of opinion there, and Shamrock with a knockdown.
00:16:03Man, has Shamrock come, he has come eons since arriving from the Ultimate Fighting World.
00:16:09And Shamrock now hammering away at Jeff Jarrett.
00:16:13Jarrett whipped into the corner.
00:16:15Uh-oh, look out.
00:16:17What a suplex, into a pinning combination.
00:16:19There's two, kick out by Jarrett.
00:16:21That was a beautiful German suplex with the high bridge.
00:16:24We talked about how Shamrock has melded his style from the Ultimate Fighting World to the Catch-It-Catch fans
00:16:29now here in the World Wrestling Federation.
00:16:31Look out.
00:16:32Oh, roll over.
00:16:33Nice move by Shamrock.
00:16:34Trying for the ankle line.
00:16:35He's got it.
00:16:36Ooh, he grabbed the rope.
00:16:37Smart move by Jeff Jarrett.
00:16:38Jarrett with a thumb to the eye there.
00:16:40Not the most sportsman-like counter by the second generation star from Hendersonville, Tennessee.
00:16:45Shamrock with a big knee to the face.
00:16:47Jarrett felt that when there's the clothesline.
00:16:49Jarrett right out in front of us.
00:16:50Shamrock can be so, so dominant.
00:16:55And Cornette trying to console the reigning NWA North American Champion.
00:17:00But many people say it's just a matter of time before Shamrock is the Intercontinental Champion.
00:17:06But he still has a lot of unfinished business to do with the nation.
00:17:10And Cornette, Cornette tripping.
00:17:12Hey, ref.
00:17:13There's the cover down.
00:17:14Kick out with authority by Shamrock.
00:17:16Wow.
00:17:17And look at Cornette.
00:17:18He had Shamrock's foot.
00:17:19Cornette looking to the eyes of the Executioner here.
00:17:22And gives Jarrett the opportunity to come from behind.
00:17:26And Jarrett now setting up Shamrock.
00:17:28I'll tell you what, the NWA, you gotta have eyes in the back of your head when you're dealing with these gentlemen.
00:17:33Jarrett now in control.
00:17:35Cornette's like a bad rash.
00:17:37He just won't go away.
00:17:41Jeff Jarrett now in control.
00:17:44Ken Shamrock has seen on so many occasions with just so much guts and intestinal fortitude.
00:17:49It's gonna take a lot for Jeff Jarrett to put him down and keep him down.
00:17:53Shamrock now whipped off the ropes.
00:17:55Jarrett with a drop kick up underneath the chin.
00:17:57Jarrett now gonna go for a cover, hooks the leg.
00:17:59There's two.
00:18:00And Shamrock gets the left shoulder up.
00:18:02Jarrett obviously trying to keep Shamrock off balance.
00:18:05Shamrock, the only shortage that Shamrock has is in the catch is catch can experience factor.
00:18:12Shamrock other than that has no weaknesses that I'm aware of.
00:18:16Counter by Shamrock into the suplex.
00:18:18What a move by the world's most dangerous man.
00:18:20Gentlemen, I still cannot believe what we saw this evening with the Legion of Doom as Shamrock misses with the elbow.
00:18:29Certainly old proverbial buzz killer.
00:18:32Yeah.
00:18:33LOD and you gotta wonder what's going through the minds right now of Hawk and Animal.
00:18:38And let's just hope, let's just hope that this is an isolated situation between the LOD.
00:18:44Jarrett after the slam now on the second rope setting up Shamrock.
00:18:49Shamrock catches it with a boot into the face and now Jarrett feeling that one.
00:18:53Little too much showboating by Jeff Jarrett here.
00:18:58Whips Shamrock into the ropes, misses with a right hand.
00:19:00Here comes Shamrock, knock down, both men hitting each other with tremendous momentum.
00:19:05Now a test of conditioning.
00:19:06Let's see who has the wherewithal to get back to their feet first.
00:19:09Jeff Cornett cheering on Jeff Jarrett.
00:19:12Cornett, of course, at ringside.
00:19:14He the ringleader of the NWA.
00:19:16Not the response Cornett was looking for.
00:19:21I'll tell you one thing, this crowd finally getting back into it after we saw
00:19:26earlier tonight just a tremendous collision between Hawk and Animal of the LOD
00:19:33fighting each other.
00:19:35And also still to come tonight, the latest mega sports celebrity to join Mike Tyson
00:19:40at WrestleMania.
00:19:41It's gonna be announced right here tonight.
00:19:43Jeff Rock with a dropkick.
00:19:46Folks, also to come tonight, D-Generation X with a major announcement regarding
00:19:50WrestleMania, Hurricane Rana by Ken Shamrock.
00:19:54Boy.
00:19:55Jarrett's in all kinds of trouble now.
00:19:58Shamrock building momentum, sending Jarrett for the ride.
00:20:01A power slam.
00:20:02The great power, the leg is hooked.
00:20:04What the hell?
00:20:06Only two that time before Jarrett got the left shoulder up.
00:20:10And now Shamrock's going after Cornett.
00:20:12Look out.
00:20:14Shamrock can feel that one coming.
00:20:17Rolled him over.
00:20:18There's two, almost three, but again, Jarrett somehow got out.
00:20:22Great ring presence by Ken Shamrock.
00:20:25As we said, Shamrock really becoming ring-wise.
00:20:28Uh-oh.
00:20:29Inadvertently, Shamrock has backhanded the referee.
00:20:32And Jarrett took advantage.
00:20:33And now look at Cornett.
00:20:35Cornett's in the ring with that loaded tennis racket.
00:20:39And Jarrett got it.
00:20:41Cornett just hit Jarrett.
00:20:43His aim was not true.
00:20:45I think Jarrett's out cold.
00:20:47Shamrock down with the ankle lock submission hold.
00:20:50Referee Tim White trying to ask Jarrett if he submits, but Jarrett's out and
00:20:56White calls for the bow.
00:20:58Shamrock throwing to WrestleMania.
00:21:03Ken of Shamrock.
00:21:06Continues.
00:21:07Here on WWF Raw, will Shamrock be the next Intercontinental Champion?
00:21:13And what now must James E Cornett be thinking?
00:21:16Get a tactical air.
00:21:20Shamrock victorious with an ankle lock submission hold, but
00:21:24I guess he would give the assist to Mr. Cornett.
00:21:26Cornett will hope for better luck later on tonight with the Rock and Roll Express
00:21:31defend the NWA World Tag Team titles against the Headbangers as Jarrett is just
00:21:35finally coming to.
00:21:42Let's take a look here at exactly what led Ken Shamrock to the win.
00:21:46Jim Cornett came into the ring and watch.
00:21:48That loaded tennis racket right down across Jarrett.
00:21:51And from right there, the NWA North American Champion was out.
00:21:54The ankle lock submission was academic, but he nonetheless, Ken Shamrock is your winner.
00:21:59And right now, Michael Cole, I understand, is gonna get words with Jeff Jarrett.
00:22:03Jeff.
00:22:04Jeff, this couldn't have been your game plan heading into tonight.
00:22:08I think it's time for me and Cornett to go our separate ways.
00:22:11And now, the WrestleMania Millennium Moment, brought to you by M&M's,
00:22:21the official candy of the new millennium.
00:22:24There's only one heartbreak kid, Shawn Michaels.
00:22:29That was the WrestleMania Millennium Moment, brought to you by M&M's,
00:22:44the official candy of the new millennium.
00:22:48All right, standing by is the king with Animal of the Legion of Doom.
00:22:53Okay, you can count on the king to go straight to the horse's mouth.
00:22:56Animal, listen, we wanna find out exactly what took place out there.
00:22:59Get away from me, lol, you punk!
00:23:01Wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:23:02This is a split up between you and the guy that's like your brother.
00:23:05What do you know about family?
00:23:06What do you know about brothers?
00:23:08As far as I'm concerned, I ain't got a brother.
00:23:12What do you ain't got no brothers?
00:23:15Hey, come on.
00:23:17Come on, you guys.
00:23:18Come on, guys, come on.
00:23:23It's gone too far.
00:23:24It's gone far enough.
00:23:25Come on.
00:23:26Come on, guys.
00:23:27I can't believe this.
00:23:28Get him up.
00:23:29Get him up.
00:23:31Frustration and rage just boiling over again.
00:23:34Get him out of here.
00:23:37Come on, Hulk.
00:23:42Well, maybe we can get a word from Hulk a little bit later on.
00:23:45The six man tag team match.
00:23:47This is just tragic.
00:23:48Scheduled for one forward and 20 minute time limit.
00:23:50Making their way to the ring at a combined weight of 892 pounds.
00:23:55Chains, eight ball and skull, disciples of apocalypse.
00:24:00Now, hopefully, as we said, we'll try to get a word with Hulk if that's possible.
00:24:05I'd like to know what the new age outlaws think of this thing right now.
00:24:08They got to be sitting on top of the world.
00:24:12Getting sent out for six man tag team action.
00:24:15The disciples of apocalypse on those gorgeous Titan motorcycles.
00:24:20Heading down to ringside, but the DOA will have its hands full this evening.
00:24:26Well, that's why we have a moment.
00:24:27Don't forget that WWF is gonna be live this Thursday night in Tacoma, Washington,
00:24:31at the Tacoma Dome.
00:24:32This Friday night in Vancouver at General Motors Place.
00:24:35Huge live WWF event.
00:24:37And then moving Saturday night to Winnipeg, Manitoba at the Winnipeg Arena.
00:24:42And then this Sunday night, February the 29th.
00:24:45Is that right?
00:24:46Or how about the 28th?
00:24:47Well.
00:24:48St. Paul, Minnesota.
00:24:49Maybe it's leap year.
00:24:50How about the March 1st?
00:24:51March 1st.
00:24:52And their opponents being accompanied to the ring by The Jackal at a combined weight of 937 pounds.
00:24:59The Truth Commission's Recon and Sniper and Kurgan.
00:25:05The Maniacal Jackal leading the Truth Commission and that monster,
00:25:09the seven-foot, 350-pound Kurgan to the ring.
00:25:13You guys notice Jackal decided to slide himself in front of the group as they march to the ring.
00:25:20And there he is.
00:25:21Jackal's a strange individual, the inspirational leader.
00:25:24He calls himself, does the Jackal a warrior prophet.
00:25:27But right there's the meal ticket.
00:25:29That's the centerpiece of all the Jackal's WWF activities.
00:25:34The seven-foot, 350-pounder who is certainly undefeated here in the WWF.
00:25:40As a matter of fact, I don't think I can recall seeing Kurgan even leave his feet.
00:25:46I think we've rescinded Jackal's headset privileges here at the announce position.
00:25:51Thankfully, I could use a break.
00:25:53And this is Chains now working on a Recon from the Truth Commission.
00:25:58Chains after the reversal by Recon.
00:26:00Missed with the big kick that time.
00:26:02And Recon in a little bit of trouble to kick things off in this six-man tag team matchup.
00:26:06Boy, the Truth Commission had some problems Saturday night with Jackal.
00:26:09Hopefully, they've patched things up.
00:26:11Look at Chains.
00:26:12Big power slam!
00:26:13Chains from the Disciples of Apocalypse goes 6'6", 277 pounds.
00:26:18And here comes, I guess that's a Skull.
00:26:20Skull and 8-ball identical twins from the DOA.
00:26:23Recon back due to the ropes.
00:26:26Ripped off the ropes now.
00:26:27Big boot to the midsection.
00:26:28Oh, knee lift.
00:26:29The DOA really been impressive as of late.
00:26:32To me, it would seem that the factor for success for the team of Kurgan and the Truth Commission would be to get the big seven-footer in.
00:26:37But Recon started the match off, and so far Kurgan is on the outside.
00:26:41I'll tell you what, that Kurgan is unreal.
00:26:44The guy's seven-foot, he goes 350 pounds.
00:26:47He is a true monster.
00:26:49Talking about tag team action, a first for WrestleMania.
00:26:53Will be a 15-team battle royal.
00:26:56Wow.
00:26:5715-team battle royal, 30 men in the ring at one time.
00:27:01And that'll be a first for WrestleMania.
00:27:03And we'll start talking about those teams this weekend on the WWF Television Network,
00:27:09beginning with Live Wire on Saturday morning.
00:27:12Little Recon with a big kick that time.
00:27:15So athletic, he goes six-foot-six, weighs close to 300 pounds.
00:27:19DOA now, 8-ball, trying to battle back, and he does.
00:27:24The Truth Commission the last few weeks has looked lost in the ring.
00:27:28Well, I think that is a result of leadership and priority.
00:27:32Obviously, the priority of the Jackal is Kurgan.
00:27:35And I can't say as I blame him.
00:27:37I don't agree.
00:27:38Uh-oh.
00:27:39Oh, man.
00:27:40Nice cheap shot there by Chains.
00:27:41But you notice that Chains picked out the sniper to Pop and not Kurgan.
00:27:45Maybe a smart move by Chains.
00:27:47Recon off the ropes, big boot by Chains up underneath the chin.
00:27:50Here's the cover, hooks the leg.
00:27:51There's two, but a kick out by Recon.
00:27:53And Recon is a mile away from being able to make a tag to that man.
00:27:56Seven-foot over 350 pounds of Kurgan.
00:27:59Who, if he gets into this match, he's gonna change the complexion of it immediately.
00:28:02He has a devastating move.
00:28:03It's called the Paralyzer.
00:28:04It's a claw.
00:28:05No one's gotten out of it yet.
00:28:06We've seen him drag men back to the locker room area.
00:28:09What a double team by DOA.
00:28:11DOA really asserting himself here, and certainly with perhaps the demise of the LOD.
00:28:18I don't wanna jump the gun here, but the DOA certainly in line with that same smash mouth,
00:28:24intimidating style to pick up right where the LOD left off.
00:28:28And I'm certainly not trying to predict that we've seen the LOD for the last time because
00:28:32we haven't heard from Hawk and maybe Hawk and Animal before the night is over can
00:28:37reconcile this situation.
00:28:39At least that's what I'm sure long time LOD fans hope.
00:28:42And folks, if you missed it, the Legion of Doom, the King was doing an interview with
00:28:47Animal back in the locker room.
00:28:49The LOD, Hawk burst in through the locker room doors, and there's Kurgan now,
00:28:53the monster, heading into the ring.
00:28:55Well, Kurgan forced the tag.
00:28:57And there's two 6'6", 300-pounders trying to make a dent on Kurgan, but to no avail.
00:29:03There's one clothesline shot and another.
00:29:06Are you kidding me?
00:29:07I mean, these are 300-pound guys trying to, look out!
00:29:11600 pounds combined weight to get Kurgan off his feet, but I think it just got his attention.
00:29:18Whoa!
00:29:19He drilled him.
00:29:20Look out.
00:29:21That size 20 boot right in the face, and there's the paralyzer.
00:29:27Kurgan has put the paralyzer on DOA.
00:29:30Chains knocks him off.
00:29:32Not before the three count was told, though.
00:29:34Look at that shot by Chains, and one by 8-Ball, that's just angering Kurgan.
00:29:42Kurgan's gotta be restrained here.
00:29:44And the Truth Commission.
00:29:46Kurgan was trying to go back in the ring to go one on three.
00:29:50The Truth Commission had to pull him out.
00:29:52Well, Kurgan certainly took matters into his own hands.
00:29:54Here, 8-Ball and Skull, each attempting to clothesline the big man down.
00:29:58Each of them, over 6'6", over 300 pounds.
00:30:01It took a bump to finally get Kurgan off his feet.
00:30:04It didn't stop him, though.
00:30:05He ran right through 8-Ball and finished things off with that devastating paralyzer.
00:30:10There is no one like Kurgan in the WWF.
00:30:12Guys, back to action now.
00:30:14In the ring, look what's going on.
00:30:16Why don't you drag it?
00:30:17Why don't you drag it?
00:30:18Look at this shit now.
00:30:20No, no, no, no.
00:30:21I don't even know what I'm calling you.
00:30:22Come on, I don't even know what I'm calling you, man.
00:30:24Hey.
00:30:25Wow.
00:30:26And we'll look out.
00:30:29No.
00:30:30Kurgan defending Jackal against Sniper.
00:30:33And now Kurgan has that paralyzer on the Sniper and Recon trying to reason where the Jackal.
00:30:41So much for reason.
00:30:45What's this?
00:30:52Jackal's got Recon backpedaling there.
00:30:54You want to take Jackal lightly, he's the one that's in control of Kurgan.
00:30:58And if you've got that monster on a leash, you're a very powerful man.
00:31:02But Kurgan, look at the devastation on Sniper.
00:31:06Look at the maniacal, the maniacal smile of that man.
00:31:10Well, sure, he's gotta feel great about things.
00:31:12We gotta take another look at this.
00:31:14Unbelievable.
00:31:15First the boot, and then the paralyzer.
00:31:17I mean, this is incredible.
00:31:20And he still has the paralyzer on Sniper as we get back down to the ring.
00:31:25Look at this.
00:31:26He's dragging Sniper up the ramp.
00:31:29Folks, when we come back to WWF Raw, we head south to San Antonio,
00:31:34the home of Shawn Michaels.
00:31:36DX with a huge announcement about WrestleMania 14.
00:31:41Sold out crowd here in Waco, Texas.
00:31:43We're on the road to WrestleMania just five weeks away.
00:31:46Joining us now, ladies and gentlemen, from San Antonio, Texas, D-Generation X.
00:31:49And what was Stone Cold Steve Austin stuttering China at No Way Out?
00:31:53Mr. Helmsley, your European title opportunity at WrestleMania against Owen Hart.
00:31:58And certainly, Shawn, your WWF title defense against Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:32:03Of course, with Mike Tyson as the enforcer, it would certainly seem to me that you folks have a lot on your mind.
00:32:10Come on, Jim Ross.
00:32:11Let's talk about what this is really about.
00:32:13You want me to lend some credence to your little rumor mill that you've been spreading about the legalities between DX and Stone Cold.
00:32:19Let's face it.
00:32:20It's an open and shut case.
00:32:22Stone Cold Steve Austin attacked a woman from behind.
00:32:25This woman.
00:32:26And guess what Stone Cold?
00:32:28She took your best shot and take a look at her.
00:32:30She looks pretty good, doesn't she?
00:32:32Hey, Steve.
00:32:33Now, as far as legalities are concerned, DX doesn't get into that.
00:32:37We believe in policing our own.
00:32:39But can you imagine this, Hunter?
00:32:41Here they come into my home with their lights, with their cameras, and they're looking for a reaction.
00:32:45Now, what they're looking for is ratings.
00:32:48Well, I'll tell you what.
00:32:49If you want ratings, the next four weeks should be something.
00:32:53Because if all hell breaking loose is your idea of must-see TV, then we're gonna set the damn Nielsen books on fire.
00:33:02Hey, let's face it.
00:33:04Next week, next Monday night, Cleveland will be a perfect place to start.
00:33:08They're all gonna be there.
00:33:10Owen Hart, Austin, and from what I hear, Mike Dyson.
00:33:15Lots of people, lots of viewers.
00:33:17Sounds like it ought to start.
00:33:18Just about then.
00:33:19Perfect place for it to start.
00:33:21And I think the perfect place for it to end?
00:33:23WrestleMania.
00:33:25Let's face it.
00:33:26The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels, the WWF Champion, will defend against Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:33:31At WrestleMania.
00:33:33I guarantee it.
00:33:35And what I guarantee is, from this day forward, WrestleMania is now stamped X-Rated.
00:33:42Discretion is advised, but will be completely ignored.
00:33:50Did I hear that right?
00:33:52X-Rated WrestleMania?
00:33:53What's he talking about?
00:33:54What is DX up to now?
00:33:56The first time ever, WrestleMania is X-Rated.
00:33:58Next week in Cleveland, DX will be there live, among others, of course.
00:34:07Wow, welcome back to Raw.
00:34:08What a night it's been.
00:34:09And M&M's proudly presents WrestleMania, live March 29th from Boston, Massachusetts.
00:34:14It's sold out, so catch us on Pay Per View.
00:34:17M&M's, the official candy of the new millennium.
00:34:20Well, take a look at Sonny, and folks, to reiterate what we just heard.
00:34:24DX said the stamp of approval is going on in X-Rated WrestleMania.
00:34:29I wonder what Sonny would think about that.
00:34:31Hey, gentlemen, I wanna know if it's really true.
00:34:35Is everything really that much bigger in Texas?
00:34:39Well, does that answer your question?
00:34:41Well, on that note, let's introduce the next match.
00:34:48First, from Morioka Iwate, Japan, weighing 205 pounds.
00:34:56He is the World Wrestling Federation Light Heavyweight Champion, Tako Mishinoku.
00:35:04There he is, the Light Heavyweight Champion from Japan, the youngster, Tako Mishinoku.
00:35:08But he's gonna have his work cut out for him tonight.
00:35:11As we're about to see in just a few seconds, I gotta wonder, Tim, if Tako's made a huge mistake here tonight.
00:35:16Well, I don't know if you call it a mistake.
00:35:19He's been horsewaddle.
00:35:20You see here, folks, we're talking about.
00:35:23This obviously will not be a Light Heavyweight title match.
00:35:28Representing the NWA from Sweetwater, Texas.
00:35:33I can't believe it.
00:35:34It's obviously news to him.
00:35:36He is Barry Windham.
00:35:42So Barry Windham, the former NWA World Champion, will take on a Light Heavyweight here.
00:35:48Well, this is just a repulsive act by a repulsive human being.
00:35:53Here he is.
00:35:55Here's James E. Cornette, Mr. NWA, joining us now at the announce table.
00:36:01It's Barry Windham versus Tako Mishinoku and it's not jumping up.
00:36:05Look out there.
00:36:06The question is, Mr. Cornette, how can you bring out a Barry Windham to take on this Light Heavyweight?
00:36:11Surprise, surprise.
00:36:12First of all, give me a chair.
00:36:13Thank you, you big fat goof.
00:36:15There's all these rednecks around here.
00:36:17I hate the smell of Texas.
00:36:19But you know what?
00:36:21Tako Mishinoku is so illiterate, not only can he not speak English, but he can't read a contract.
00:36:27So I figured it was about time that I introduced him to the ways of American corporate law and contract law and I screwed him over but good.
00:36:37You sure did, you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:36:40I have been so sickened by seeing that punk flying around, making everybody sick in their stomach doing flip flops.
00:36:48It's about time that somebody gives him a little taste.
00:36:51Here's a cover.
00:36:52A good old fashioned American double cross.
00:36:55Barry Windham weighs 300 pounds.
00:36:57Taka goes, he's less than 200.
00:36:59Yeah, he's gonna be a little sushi appetizer is what he's gonna be for Barry Windham.
00:37:04Who's the only Texan, as a matter of fact, in the world that I like.
00:37:08Barry Windham now in total control of the WWF Light Heavyweight Champion, Taka Mishinoku.
00:37:16And Mr. Cornette is the blatantly bigger Barry Windham.
00:37:19Maul's talking the corner.
00:37:20What happened with Jeff Jarrett earlier this evening?
00:37:22There was a little miscalculation.
00:37:24I got in the ring trying to point out.
00:37:26Hey, wait a minute.
00:37:27Here's a cover now.
00:37:28There's two.
00:37:29Windham with a kick out.
00:37:30There we go.
00:37:31I got in the ring trying to point out that Shamrock was breaking all the rules.
00:37:35He even punched the referee in the face right on purpose.
00:37:37And it just so happened that I accidentally ran into Jeff.
00:37:40But I'm sure that once that I get a chance to sit down and talk to Jeff,
00:37:44in some nice cool confines away from the arena, everything will be worked out just fine.
00:37:49No problem.
00:37:50There's no problem.
00:37:51Well, nonetheless, Mr. Cornette, a valiant effort here by the Light Heavyweight Champion,
00:37:56Taka Mishinoku, but the 280 pound Barry Windham in total control now.
00:38:02And watch this.
00:38:03A slam with authority.
00:38:06Mr. Cornette, I might want to remind you, sir, that the NWA Tag Team titles will once again
00:38:13be on the line right here tonight.
00:38:15Your Rock and Roll Express must defend against the Headbangers.
00:38:20A return match from this past Saturday night.
00:38:23I just hope you haven't forgot that fact.
00:38:25I don't see why in the world that we had to have a rematch, but obviously we do.
00:38:30So, if you will excuse me, I am now-
00:38:33We will.
00:38:34Yeah.
00:38:35We'll be happy to.
00:38:36You're a real smart aleck, you know that?
00:38:37Why don't you go back home yonder?
00:38:38Thelarious, Windham down, hooks to leg.
00:38:40This should be it.
00:38:41Two.
00:38:42Can you believe it?
00:38:49Kane is here.
00:38:51Kane is here in Waco.
00:38:53And the NWA Convention has just been adjourned.
00:39:03Yeah, it didn't take too long for Cornette and company to hightail it.
00:39:09And unfortunately, Takovic and Oku is laying prone in the center of the ring.
00:39:16After absorbing that beating from Barry Windham, he's motionless.
00:39:23None of us will ever, ever forget what happened at the Royal Rumble when Kane,
00:39:28The Undertaker's brother, set The Undertaker's casket on fire.
00:39:32And we have not seen The Undertaker since.
00:39:35And perhaps we will never see him again.
00:39:39No.
00:39:40Taka Minchinoku.
00:39:43Look at this.
00:39:44This is carnage.
00:39:46A chokeslam.
00:39:47Kane could break the light heavyweight champion's back.
00:39:52Taka weighs 200 pounds soaking wet.
00:39:55And look at this, Kane now.
00:39:57Come on.
00:39:58Come on.
00:39:59The Tombstone Piledriver.
00:40:02The prophecy continues from Paul Bearer.
00:40:05How can Paul Bearer explain this carnage?
00:40:10How can he bring Kane out to take on this prone man?
00:40:13Who's next on the list?
00:40:15There is only one WWF superstar that I am interested in.
00:40:21And his name is Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:40:26My, what?
00:40:28Uh-oh.
00:40:31Stone Cold Steve Austin, I know you can hear me and listen good.
00:40:42If you've got the guts, next week, right here on Raw is War,
00:40:55you'll step into the ring and look back Kane square in the eye.
00:41:01All Bears challenging Austin.
00:41:07Challenging Austin for next week.
00:41:10Well, I guarantee you one thing, if Austin were here right now,
00:41:15he would be right in Kane's face.
00:41:17If Kane wants to fight, he won't have to look far and look long for the toughest
00:41:22SOB in the WWF.
00:41:24What a showdown next week in Cleveland.
00:41:28Folks, thanks for joining us on WWF Raw.
00:41:32If you think this hour was great, you ain't seen nothing yet.
00:41:35The Warzone is on the way.
00:41:40Earlier tonight on Raw, the Legion of Doom.
00:41:43Within moments, seemingly, of regaining the WWF Tag Team titles.
00:41:48And then it was disaster.
00:41:50That's right, you see it, Hulk took a little too long getting out of the ring,
00:41:56and that gave badass Billy Gunn the opportunity to pick up the belt and put down Hulk.
00:42:03The New Age Outlaws, who we hope to talk to in just a few moments, win the matchup.
00:42:08But then it all broke loose, Kane.
00:42:10Two men who have been together for years as brothers broke into an all-out brawl.
00:42:15I'll tell you, I tried to get back in the dress room, get them back together,
00:42:20and then I got caught in the middle of this split between legends.
00:42:25And that's one of the bestwonks where'd it be?
00:42:27We went out there!
00:42:29Come out two men!
00:42:44No problem, man?
00:42:46We want more
00:42:48Everyone get on your feet
00:42:56When your heads turn up the heat
00:42:59Got enough and sure to go

00:44:10Billy the world tonight saw the demise of the Legion of Doom
00:44:13You're right they saw the demise because they said we couldn't cut their hair what did we do
00:44:17We cut their hair hey what did they say we couldn't steal their pads what did we do
00:44:22We stole their pads
00:44:23Oh yeah and now we did the ultimate oh yeah that's right
00:44:26We split them up
00:44:27But Billy it seems like the Legion of Doom actually split themselves up
00:44:31They didn't do nothing it's a compliment of the new age outlaws you know it everybody knows it because every time that we pull up to the building every time we do something that people just go oh my god what are they gonna do tonight

00:45:31Wait a minute that's useless
00:45:32This is useless
00:45:33It's over it's a wrap it's a wrap
00:45:36That's Chainsaw Charlie
00:45:40Chainsaw Charlie
00:45:42What is he doing?
00:45:43He's trying to cut his there's Cactus Jack with a baseball bat
00:45:47The new age outlaws are being ambushed right in the parking lot
00:45:50Look at this
00:45:52Chainsaw Charlie with that Chainsaw Cactus Jack with a ball bat
00:45:57Trying to get their hands on the tag team
00:45:59What is this Cactus doing over there?
00:46:01Get out of there, look out!
00:46:05Watch your hands!
00:46:06This is, look at, the outlaws are driving away.
00:46:17We'll be fighting, look out, look out!
00:46:23Ladies and gentlemen, here's what happened just moments ago in the war zone.
00:46:27Michael Cole had just concluded an interview with a new age outlaws when out of nowhere
00:46:31Chainsaw Charlie armed to the teeth and Cactus Jack with a baseball bat attacked the tag team champions.
00:46:38Attack, that's taking it lightly I would say.
00:46:41Look at this, a chainsaw trying to ram right through the window and Cactus Jack breaking out on the windshields,
00:46:47throwing the bat.
00:46:48The bat, I mean there was pandemonium in the parking lot.
00:46:50And as we speak, the new age outlaws are somewhere on I-35.
00:46:55They're gone.
00:46:56Getting the heck out of Waco.
00:46:57Well, ladies and gentlemen, this without a doubt will be Goldust's most outrageous characterization to date.
00:47:05Here is Goldust's own rendition of the American Dream.
00:47:10I can't wait to see this.
00:47:12If you will.
00:47:13The American Dream, Dusty Rose, five-time world heavyweight champion.
00:47:22The bullet of the woods, if you will, baby.
00:47:25You understand?
00:47:2725-time world heavyweight champion.
00:47:31I beat Ric Flair 25,000 times in a row.
00:47:37Had a legendary feud with Terry Funk.
00:47:40When Terry Funk always moved my ass, I thought I'm going to talk about that right now.
00:47:44Oh, no.
00:47:45I want to talk about the American Dream, Dusty Rose, Stardust himself, 2,000 times world heavyweight champion.
00:47:53Reach to the star.
00:47:54Touch it all.
00:47:55Stardust, you understand?
00:47:56Reach to the stars, but he never got the gold.
00:48:02But I'm oh so proud of my son, Dusty, and you understand?
00:48:06Goldust, if you will.
00:48:09Because he touched the gold.
00:48:11I'm oh so proud of my son.
00:48:14Yes.
00:48:15Comes straight from my loins.
00:48:18You understand, baby?
00:48:20But if the dream could go back in time to his proudest moment was when the American Dream, Dusty Rose, made it to the show.
00:48:31When he made it to the WWF right here, baby.
00:48:35And I could walk out with my sweet little half-eye.
00:48:39Oh, God rest her soul.
00:48:41In my little polka dots, her sweet little polka dots.
00:48:43It was the greatest time in my life.
00:48:45If I could only go back in time to when I was just the common man, if you will.
00:48:57American Dream.
00:49:09He's just a common man.
00:49:12Look at him.
00:49:13It's a dream.
00:49:17It's a nightmare, all right?
00:49:19No, no, this is the greatest thing I have ever seen.
00:49:21If you will.
00:49:25Look at, look at Goldust.
00:49:27What is he tonight?
00:49:28Hey, he's been Maryland Dust.
00:49:29He's been, he's been Goldust.
00:49:31I guess he's Dust Dust tonight.
00:49:32Look at that.
00:49:33Before the legions of American Dream fans get up in arms, let us let you know that earlier a WWF official talked to the dream, the real dream on the phone, and he had a good laugh with us about this whole situation.
00:49:50It's another attempt by the boy there to get attention.
00:49:54Yeah, when are those internet geeks gonna get it, huh?
00:49:57You don't want to be real, baby.
00:50:00Go ahead, get up, JR.
00:50:04Do a little dance.
00:50:05You're about the same size as Dust, doesn't it?
00:50:07Hey, hey, hey.
00:50:08Look at that.
00:50:09And his opponent, from Roscoe, Texas, weighing in at 3,06 pounds, Bradshaw.
00:50:19Well, business may pick up here because Bradshaw is a dead serious about his profession.
00:50:24He's dead serious about his career.
00:50:27And I've just noticed, where's Luna?
00:50:30We know Sable's in the house.
00:50:33Look at that.
00:50:34Just like that.
00:50:36Just needs a little sleep.
00:50:38No Luna, but she's here, I understand.
00:50:43Sable, we know, is in the arena.
00:50:45Yeah, and we know what happened last week.
00:50:47We know what happened Saturday night.
00:50:49Man, the fur flew.
00:50:51I got a feeling.
00:50:52I just got that feeling.
00:50:53Look at the dream.
00:50:55I just got that feeling those two make it together tonight.
00:50:58We may see it all tonight, JR.
00:51:00I thought we saw quite enough on Saturday night, but in any event, you gotta wonder.
00:51:06Look, Bradshaw, he's so ready, he's in great shape to move up the ladder here in the WWF.
00:51:12He wants to get into a tough athletic contest, and this is what faces him.
00:51:18And not that Dustin Rhodes is not a great athlete, Goldust.
00:51:22But this characterization is-
00:51:25Behind the elbow.
00:51:26You gotta watch that.
00:51:27You better believe it.
00:51:28If you will.
00:51:29What's with that polka dot outfit?
00:51:31Tell me about that, JR.
00:51:33That's another bit of marketing genius, I reckon.
00:51:37I don't really know.
00:51:40But again, Bradshaw is a no-nonsense guy.
00:51:44Good arm drag take down by Dusty Dust.
00:51:48Well, that didn't work.
00:51:53Well, that was a pretty successful knock down.
00:51:58That move always worked for the American dream.
00:52:01This in here, son, you know who I am?
00:52:05I'm a legend here.
00:52:09I'm the American dream Dusty Rhodes, the only two Texans in here.
00:52:12I'm the Babe Ruth of Pro Wrestling.
00:52:17You should be bumping your little ass around here in the ring for me.
00:52:21Now I'm gonna come on back in there, so you better start letting me beat you up.
00:52:30Well, I don't think Bradshaw's gonna let anybody do anything to him that they're not man enough to do.
00:52:37And I'm not saying that the former Intercontinental Champion, maybe in his right mind, isn't man enough to do it.
00:52:42But boy, this kid is so, he's so hell bent on that attention being drawn to him.
00:52:47Hey, I think Bradshaw needs to lighten up a little bit.
00:52:52Get a sense of humor.
00:52:53Ow.
00:52:54I don't see anybody laughing about those knife edge chops and that big cowboy.
00:52:59Boy.
00:53:00You better get him up behind the elbow, Dusty.
00:53:05You'll be looking for somebody to run into that elbow and back body drop.
00:53:14Get up and shake your behind or something.
00:53:16Well, Bradshaw's not missed a beat here.
00:53:19There's the elbow drop and a near fall.
00:53:21What's he doing now?
00:53:23I can't get over that outfit.
00:53:28When Dusty used to wear that, he said the outfit made him look fat.
00:53:32But I think it was really the fat that made him look fat.
00:53:36Hard kicks by Bradshaw, who's dead serious about this whole situation.
00:53:42And I don't think it's too entertained by Goldust.
00:53:45And a near fall on, or maybe I should say, Dusty Dust.
00:53:49I really don't know.
00:53:52Just calling the dream.
00:53:53Ow.
00:53:54Well, he's getting the stuffing's beat out of him right here, King.
00:53:57I guess.
00:53:59I guess it's kind of a bad dream tonight, but it's still the dream.
00:54:04You know Dusty, he's probably having a good laugh about this, isn't he?
00:54:07There's no doubt about it.
00:54:08He's got a good sense of humor.
00:54:09He's just a common man.
00:54:11Son of a plumber.
00:54:12And- He's always a good friend to me, at least he would stab you in the front.
00:54:17Bradshaw now, sending Dusty Dust to the far side.
00:54:23Here we go.
00:54:24It may be a little time to flip flop and fly.
00:54:26Here we go.
00:54:27Yes.
00:54:28That'll take, well, so much for that.
00:54:31Wait a minute.
00:54:32Can you say Lariat Dream?
00:54:36Hold it.
00:54:37Here's over, Bradshaw.
00:54:41Well, I don't know if this is some sort of bizarre tribute to his dear old daddy,
00:54:45but in any event, it is certainly one way to draw attention to himself.
00:54:49That's exactly what Dusty Dust has done.
00:54:52And Bradshaw, though, is on a roll here.
00:54:55Well, look at, he did all the moves that always worked for the old dust.
00:55:00And didn't seem to work too well for, for Dust Dust tonight.
00:55:05Even the old crotch thing, that always worked.
00:55:07Look at him, there he was.
00:55:08But-
00:55:09I can't believe it.
00:55:12Well, Michael Cole, best of luck to you.
00:55:15Michael Cole's gonna try to make some sense out of this deal.
00:55:18The scars are falling off.
00:55:21Gold Dust, what do you think your father would think about your performance tonight?
00:55:28I don't want things to start us.
00:55:31Doesn't compare to Gold Dust, that's for sure.
00:55:34I'm hanging these tights up.
00:55:36Well, folks, we've got more serious business to tend to.
00:55:39Kevin Kelly's back in the locker room area.
00:55:41That's right, JR.
00:55:42I'm attempting to get a word with Hawk of the Legion of Doom.
00:55:45We understand he is preparing to leave.
00:55:47Hopefully, we'll be able to get Hawk before he departs for the-
00:55:50Okay, here he is, guys.
00:55:51Let's follow him.
00:55:52Hawk, if I can, just a moment of your time.
00:55:53Hawk, could you try to put into words exactly what happened tonight between you and Animal?
00:55:57Hawk, please, if I could, just one moment, please.
00:56:00And welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to the War Zone.
00:56:10Jim Ross and Jerry the King Long are back with you at ringside.
00:56:13And what a night we've had already.
00:56:15The Legion of Doom apparently have broken up here tonight.
00:56:18Yeah, same goes for Jimmy Cornet and Jeff Jarrett.
00:56:20They may be parting ways.
00:56:21We've heard the 15-team battle royal announced tonight.
00:56:24And the Generation X proclaimed that WrestleMania is gonna be X-rated.
00:56:29Plus, we have seen Kurgan do his damage.
00:56:31Yeah.
00:56:32And then Kane has challenged Stone Cold Steve Austin for next week.
00:56:37We saw the New Age Outlaws' vehicle assaulted by Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie.
00:56:42Boy, and I never thought that I would ever see the American Dream back on Raw, but he was here.
00:56:47Also, still to come, another celebrity, a mega-celebrity announced to Dwight Lack Tyson at WrestleMania.
00:56:54From Miami, Florida, weighing in at 275 pounds,
00:56:58he's the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Champion, The Rock, Rookie Maivia.
00:57:05Well, The Rock hanging back a little bit, King, being fastidly late.
00:57:09Right, as all big stars are, JR.
00:57:11Well, it wasn't a rousing night on Saturday night for the Nation of Domination.
00:57:18The Rock had a little ceremony to the Ducks.
00:57:25He gave D-Lo, Kama, and Mark Henry $15,000 Rolex watches.
00:57:29Wow. And then The Rock gave Baruch a portrait.
00:57:33Boy, that was priceless. Look at it.
00:57:35Portrait of the Intercontinental Champion.
00:57:37Well, I wouldn't say priceless.
00:57:39Baruch wasn't too happy with it.
00:57:40Baruch was gonna use the portrait as a weapon.
00:57:42But the distraction caused Baruch, the leader of the nation,
00:57:46to lose to the undefeated Steve Blackman.
00:57:49Look what the end rate did.
00:57:51Baruch tearing up, like I said, a priceless portrait.
00:57:54The leader of the nation is Baruch.
00:58:01Let's keep that thought in mind.
00:58:03And right now, we've got a non-title matchup with the undefeated Steve Blackman.
00:58:07Well, you know, earlier in the evening, The Rock told me, he said,
00:58:10King, if you want a job done right, do it yourself.
00:58:13So he's gonna take care of Steve Blackman tonight personally.
00:58:16The Rock is, watch it.
00:58:18Might be good preparation for The Rock because if anybody even gets close to resembling
00:58:23Ken Shamrock as far as martial arts is concerned, in a unique fighting style.
00:58:28And Steve Blackman, it'll be The Rock and Shamrock at WrestleMania.
00:58:32And Maya Villa starts out very aggressively here.
00:58:35Right hands and kicks to the solar plexus.
00:58:37The Rock, Maya Villa.
00:58:39He's The Rock.
00:58:42Irish Whip knows gonna be reversed on the Intercontinental Champion,
00:58:46who's knocked down by Steve Blackman.
00:58:48Blackman now driving the elbow into the sternum, follows it with a right hand.
00:58:52Blackman can strike suddenly.
00:58:56Uh-oh, there's a little distraction there by D'Lo Brown.
00:59:00Yes.
00:59:01And that's all it takes.
00:59:02The leader surveying the nation here is Farouk.
00:59:06And Blackman is really outmanned here.
00:59:09The chances on Blackman remaining undefeated, I would say, are slim and none.
00:59:14Well, the Olympics and Nagano are over.
00:59:19Yeah.
00:59:20But The Rock gets a ten on style points and that didn't quite overwhelm Farouk.
00:59:25There's a cover and Blackman gets the left shoulder off the canvas.
00:59:28To me, the Olympics weren't quite the same without Tonya Harding.
00:59:31But The Rock, now The Rock, you know, all of this goes, a lot of this nation stuff goes back to The Rock.
00:59:37He told me personally, in confidence, that that salute by any means necessary.
00:59:41Yeah.
00:59:42That was his idea.
00:59:43Well, let me say this.
00:59:44The Rock came up with that.
00:59:45The Rock is no Julian Bond.
00:59:46Look at Kama.
00:59:47He's no what?
00:59:48Who?
00:59:49Julian Bond.
00:59:50The new chairman of the NAACP?
00:59:53Yes.
00:59:54He's a fine man.
00:59:55Can't say the same for The Rock, unfortunately, these days.
00:59:59And The Nation, when you talk about strength in numbers, that perhaps is what led to the demise of the Legion of Doom.
01:00:05And saw Hawk leaving the building.
01:00:08Apparently he has gotten in his car alone from what we're told and has left Waco here.
01:00:13Animal is still finishing dressing.
01:00:15I don't know if we're gonna have an opportunity, if he would even be willing to speak with us before we go.
01:00:19Look at D-Lo.
01:00:20Look at D-Lo.
01:00:21D-Lo choking.
01:00:22Steve Blackman.
01:00:23You gotta face it, J.R., that historic tag team of the Legion of Doom, the Road Wars, they have gone down like the Titanic.
01:00:31Well, I'll tell you, I've seen them on scaffold matches and great rivalries with the Horsemen and with the Minnesota Wrecking Crew, with the Midnight Express, the Nasty Boys demolition.
01:00:42Team after team was vanquished by the Legion of Doom over the years, as The Rock can't connect with the elbow.
01:00:48Watch it, Rock.
01:00:49Nice move by Blackman, catching The Rock in the solar plexus.
01:00:53Blackman now quickening the pace here, but The Rock reverses the whip and catches Blackman.
01:00:59And uh-oh.
01:01:00Well, wait a minute.
01:01:01Farouk, what are you doing?
01:01:02The Rock heavy man pinned.
01:01:03Farouk up on the apron, distracting the referee.
01:01:07What?
01:01:08Perhaps inadvertently.
01:01:09The Rock may have had the pinning combination right there following the power slant.
01:01:14I think Farouk still, look out!
01:01:16Uh-oh, Farouk and The Rock, another tactical error.
01:01:21And The Rock is wrapped up, one, two, three.
01:01:24No, did he get it?
01:01:25No.
01:01:26He got two.
01:01:27Boy, that was almost a repeat performance of Saturday night.
01:01:32When Blackman, as we showed you, did the same thing to Farouk.
01:01:37What is Farouk doing?
01:01:38I don't get it.
01:01:39He's not paying attention.
01:01:40Well, he's got a lot on his mind.
01:01:42Just stand there and watch The Rock.
01:01:44He'll get the job done.
01:01:45He'll be ranked number one just like Duke is again in basketball.
01:01:48Look at that!
01:01:49What'd I tell you?
01:01:50The DDT by The Rock.
01:01:52And again, look at this!
01:01:54Well, Farouk is having a debate with the referee Jack Doan.
01:01:59And now D-Lo's got Blackman's nunchucks.
01:02:02Uh-oh, here we go.
01:02:03Say it, JR.
01:02:04Business is about to pick up.
01:02:06Well, I'm afraid you're right.
01:02:07Hey!
01:02:08D-Lo, his aim was bad.
01:02:10Blackman with a nunchucks right in the back of the neck.
01:02:14Maybe the back of the head of The Rock.
01:02:16No, yeah!
01:02:17What?
01:02:18Blackman wins this match.
01:02:19You gotta be kidding me.
01:02:20Steve Blackman remains undefeated, but you gotta wonder what's going on here.
01:02:26Now Farouk gets in the ring, he gets out of the ring.
01:02:29He gets on the apron, he gets off the apron.
01:02:32I don't get this, JR.
01:02:36What, Farouk, what's up with you?
01:02:38You don't even seem upset at all.
01:02:41Well, D-Lo's taking it pretty hard because D-Lo.
01:02:48All he had to do was hand him the nunchucks and try to throw them to him.
01:02:51Mark Henry in comment.
01:02:56What's he saying?
01:02:57What?
01:02:58Pointing an explanation.
01:02:59D-Lo and The Rock are having problems.
01:03:01D-Lo saying that he told me to do it, obviously talking about Farouk.
01:03:09And The Rock is demanding, The Rock is demanding that The Boss get in the ring.
01:03:18He's calling out The Boss here.
01:03:21He's saying he caused him to get beat, one, two, three.
01:03:31I don't think Drew cares.
01:03:35He just said doggone.
01:03:40Uh-oh.
01:03:43Well, The Rock can't believe this turn of events as the apparent controversy and
01:03:50dissension within the Nation of Domination persists.
01:03:54And now Farouk is signaling for the troops.
01:03:57Let's go.
01:03:58I can't believe this, J.R.
01:04:04I think, well, there's Kevin Kelly and Luna.
01:04:08Well, I'm standing by right now with Luna.
01:04:10Earlier this evening, Luna, we saw the artist formerly known as Goldust, but you were conspicuous
01:04:14by your absence.
01:04:15What's going on?
01:04:16I am standing back here, calm, cool, and collective.
01:04:24Just a time bomb of insanity, waiting for the luscious Sable to make her grand appearance.
01:04:35I am the one that seems gonna take her Estee Lauder face and rearrange it into an anti-world
01:04:46original.
01:04:47I am the Vandal on your mind.
01:04:51And from this point on, I will be on you like maggots on Road Cow.
01:05:04That could happen tonight, Ross.
01:05:05Ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to take you back to last Sunday in Houston, Texas.
01:05:09It was at no way out for a record-setting crowd in the Compact Center when Kane would
01:05:15meet Vader.
01:05:16And, King, you gotta admit, Vader showed no fear in this matchup.
01:05:20No, he stood toe-to-toe with Kane.
01:05:22He even delivered a moonsault.
01:05:24But I couldn't believe it.
01:05:25Kane popped right up, reminiscent of his brother, The Undertaker, and delivered a devastating
01:05:30chokes limb, and then the deadly tombstone.
01:05:34But that was not all.
01:05:36Kane would retrieve a wrench from the toolbox from under the ring.
01:05:40And Kane would take that wrench and strike Vader directly in the face.
01:05:45Wow.
01:05:46Tomorrow morning in Boulder, Colorado, Vader will have surgery to repair several broken
01:05:51bones in his face, thanks to Kane.
01:05:54We'll keep you updated, hopefully, on WWE programming this weekend.
01:05:58And, well, here comes the commissioner along with referee Earl Hebner.
01:06:02And the commissioner.
01:06:03We've got an NWA Tag Team title matchup set.
01:06:06The Headbangers get one more chance at the Rock and Roll Express.
01:06:11The commissioner's bigger than Dusty.
01:06:14Gonna throw his weight around again.
01:06:17Mr. Slaughter, apparently asking to have a word with NWA referee Tommy Young.
01:06:24About what?
01:06:25What's going on?
01:06:26I don't want you in this match.
01:06:28Hey, hey, hey, hey, watch who you're pushing around.
01:06:31I'll have a lawsuit on you.
01:06:32Nothing to do with the WWE.
01:06:34Wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:06:36But I'm supposed to be the referee.
01:06:38Well, I'm the commissioner.
01:06:39This is an NWA world title match.
01:06:41He's an NWA referee.
01:06:42I want this man to take him to play for this match.
01:06:46No way.
01:06:47Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:06:51He's an NWA referee and this is an NWA title match.
01:06:54I can sue you for that.
01:06:56He's appointed by the NWA president.
01:06:58Okay, our cornet's right.
01:07:00Look at this.
01:07:02What is he doing?
01:07:04No, no, no.
01:07:05What are you doing?
01:07:06I can't believe this.
01:07:08Well, I think what precipitated this perhaps was on Raw Saturday night.
01:07:15It looked as if the headbangers after the stage died were gonna win the NWA tag titles.
01:07:20But right here you see Robert Gibson being thrown over the top rope,
01:07:24which according to NWA rules is an automatic disqualification.
01:07:28And you know that to be a fact, JR.
01:07:30Yes, I do.
01:07:31The NWA, the National Wrestling Alliance, has some different rules rather than they have
01:07:35here in the WWF.
01:07:36As a matter of fact, one of the rules is in the NWA, they don't allow chainsaws.
01:07:40Look who's coming.
01:07:41We've already got controversy here tonight.
01:07:44What about this?
01:07:45What about this, Jeff?
01:07:47Sit down.
01:07:48Well.
01:07:49Grab those headphones.
01:07:51Is this another example of the way that they treat real wrestlers in the WWF?
01:07:55They try to cheat him, putting another, another, WWF referee in this match instead of the NWA referee Tommy Young?
01:08:02What's the matter?
01:08:03Do you realize I can have a lawsuit?
01:08:06NWA President Howard Brody of Tampa, Florida assigned Tommy Young, and I'm gonna call the NWA law firm of Zach O'Pfeffer and Montt, and I'm gonna file a grievance and a complaint.
01:08:17I don't care how this thing turns out.
01:08:19You better settle down your faces.
01:08:21Getting ready, you're gonna have your asthma attack and everything else.
01:08:25Leave him alone, JR.
01:08:26It's Ricky Morton and Mosh now, the NWA Tag Team Championship is on the line here.
01:08:32And Morton now, the swinging neck breaker on Mosh.
01:08:36Morton and Gibson dominated tag team scene in much of the 80s.
01:08:41They got their start in Memphis, and of course, Jerry the King Lawler was right there when they first got their start.
01:08:46Uh-oh.
01:08:51Morton the blonde, Robert Gibson, the other Rock and Roll Express member kind of getting a little too close there.
01:08:58I would have to say that this match is being wrestled under protest.
01:09:02I mean, this is not right having a World Wrestling Federation official officiate an NWA match.
01:09:08But why don't you call Howard Brody?
01:09:10Do you owe him money too?
01:09:12Fournette gets paid every time he mentions his name.
01:09:14There's a front face lock by Gibson.
01:09:16A blind tag was made.
01:09:17Uh-oh.
01:09:18And the Rock and Roll, I'll tell you one thing.
01:09:20If the Rock and Roll Express get about a half a step off here against the Headbangers,
01:09:24they're gonna leave here without the NWA tag titles.
01:09:27And some folks are wondering, well, why would the Headbangers, former WWF Tag Champions,
01:09:32want these tag title belts representing the NWA?
01:09:35It's not so much about the NWA as it is about the Headbangers idolizing the Rock and Roll Express when the Headbangers were kids.
01:09:43And what a feather in their cap to beat two legends like Morton and Gibson.
01:09:48They just want belts, no matter what kind of belts they are.
01:09:52They would love to have the NWA titles.
01:09:54Those are very prestigious titles.
01:09:56Look at this.
01:09:57There you go.
01:09:58Morton snap marrying Thrasher in.
01:10:01And now Thrasher sending Morton back into Gibson.
01:10:05Uh-oh.
01:10:08Robert's mad now.
01:10:10Uh-oh.
01:10:11Well, the shades of the Legion of Doom.
01:10:13Now the Rock and Roll Express are having a little philosophical disagreement.
01:10:17Folks, we've just been notified that just signed for WrestleMania, apparently,
01:10:22Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie will meet the Road Dog and Billy Gunn.
01:10:27And we're not sure of the stipulation, but some sort of, well,
01:10:32we're not sure what the stipulation's gonna be.
01:10:35But we know that the match is gonna take place at WrestleMania between Cactus and
01:10:39Chainsaw, Road Dogg and Billy.
01:10:41Look out.
01:10:42And Cornette got just what he deserved.
01:10:44CQ, just qualification.
01:10:45See, if the National Wrestling Alliance referee was there, that match would be over right now.
01:10:50Look at Cornette tripping.
01:10:53Yes.
01:10:54Cornette was on the outside making his presence known there.
01:10:58Yeah, why was he on the outside?
01:11:00Because he'd been knocked there by the Headbanger.
01:11:02Well, that's where managers usually stay king, on the outside by the by.
01:11:07A knee right to the chest of a mosh by Gibson.
01:11:10And now Gibson and Morton have isolated their adversary in the Rock and Roll corner.
01:11:15Good strategy.
01:11:16And what Morton and Gibson may lack in size, they have great psychology.
01:11:21Snap mare, lateral press, and a near fall.
01:11:23That's right.
01:11:24What you've always said, size don't matter.
01:11:26Tell him, Jimmy Cornette.
01:11:29Folks, next Monday night, Kane has challenged Stone Cold Steve Austin.
01:11:34What a night it's gonna be from Cleveland.
01:11:36Mike Tyson's gonna be in the house live, and so will DX.
01:11:40They missed him.
01:11:41They missed him.
01:11:42Rock and Roll Express going for that patented double drop kick.
01:11:46We've seen them beat a lot of great teams with that maneuver.
01:11:49And some of those teams managed by Jim Cornette over the years.
01:11:53I can't wait to be in Cleveland next week myself.
01:11:55They love me in Cleveland.
01:11:58I wonder why.
01:11:59How come, King?
01:12:00What did they just do?
01:12:02McMahon and Cleveland.
01:12:04Well, yeah, you and Art Modell are good buddies, I heard.
01:12:06What?
01:12:07Sidewalk slammed by Thrasher on Morton, and Gibson interrupts the count.
01:12:13There it is again.
01:12:16Match is over.
01:12:17Well, yeah, the referee saw it.
01:12:19Look at this.
01:12:20But this is apparently under WWF rules.
01:12:24How can an NWA-
01:12:25Man.
01:12:26What a shot, and Cornette just- Wait a minute.
01:12:30He just knocked Thrasher right on board.
01:12:32Cornette, turn around.
01:12:33No.
01:12:34And the Headbangers, the Headbangers win this match.
01:12:37The Headbangers are the NWA Tag Champions.
01:12:40Impossible, Ross, you saw it.
01:12:42This provocation, the man was thrown over the top rope.
01:12:45The Headbangers.
01:12:48What have you done, Cornette?
01:12:52Cornette's era tennis racket has made its second mistake.
01:12:57And the Headbangers, look at that.
01:12:59Taking their titles to the fans here in Waco.
01:13:03And Mama's boy, the Prince of Polyester, is beside himself.
01:13:10I guess so, look at this, the prestigious National Wrestling Alliance titles
01:13:15being held by two groups wearing skirts.
01:13:18What's Howard Brody gonna say?
01:13:20Well, folks, I'll tell you one thing.
01:13:22Up next, we're gonna show you a very special look at the Rattlesnake.
01:13:26Stone Cold's road to WrestleMania.
01:13:30Well, I'll tell you, JR, these people are still on their feet here in Waco, Texas,
01:13:46since the announcement that the legendary Pete Rose is gonna be a part of WrestleMania.
01:13:51Yes, indeed, they are jacked up here in Waco, Texas, ladies and gentlemen.
01:13:54But what about next Monday night?
01:13:56The Gund Arena in Cleveland is going to be rocking.
01:13:59We heard what DX had to say earlier in the broadcast.
01:14:02And I'll tell you something, I take DX dead serious.
01:14:06They're gonna be in Gund Arena live next week.
01:14:08Let me tell you who else is gonna be there.
01:14:10Live and in person right in that ring in Cleveland, Ohio,
01:14:13the baddest man on the planet, Mike Tyson, next week in Cleveland.
01:14:17And you know what the Stone Cold Steve Austin thinks of Mike Tyson.
01:14:21He might get right in his face.
01:14:22As a matter of fact, DX is not exactly on Mike Tyson's Christmas card list either.
01:14:26This could be explosive next week.
01:14:28No doubt about it.
01:14:29Plus, ladies and gentlemen, Kane challenging Stone Cold Steve Austin,
01:14:32the toughest SOB in the WWF.
01:14:34Austin will not back away from a fight.
01:14:36We expect that to be a real slobber knocker.
01:14:39As a matter of fact, let's take this opportunity to take a very special look at
01:14:43Stone Cold Steve Austin's Road to WrestleMania.
01:14:47If you've never watched the show before, my name is Stone Cold Steve Austin.
01:14:54And if you have watched the show before, give me a hell yeah.
01:14:58Hell yeah!
01:15:00That rattlesnake is not afraid of anything!
01:15:05The compass has won't be in the WWF!
01:15:10He doesn't give a damn!
01:15:13Stone Cold Steve Austin!
01:15:18His popularity is, well, it's absolutely phenomenal.
01:15:25And that's what's hard to figure out.
01:15:27Austin 316 says, I just whipped your ass!
01:15:31No more Mr. Nice Guy!
01:15:35The rattlesnake!
01:15:36The rattlesnake!
01:15:37No, no, no!
01:15:38No!
01:15:39The stunner!
01:15:40Austin is raising hell!
01:15:41The venom is killing from the rattlesnake!
01:15:44Austin is gonna break the world here!
01:15:46He'll jump him up hole in you!
01:15:48Lion is unbelievable!
01:15:49He can't be controlled!
01:15:51Hell no!
01:15:52Will he be the next WWF champion?
01:15:55Hell yeah!
01:16:00As far as Shawn Michaels goes, professionally, I think you're one of the greatest wrestlers
01:16:05to ever step in a ring.
01:16:07Personally, I think you're a big piece of trash.
01:16:10There's a trick by Michaels!
01:16:11And Michaels and Helmsley!
01:16:13Dragging!
01:16:14Austin is solid!
01:16:16Yeah, that's 4-1!
01:16:17How many times are we gonna see this?
01:16:19It's a muggy!
01:16:20It's a damn muggy!
01:16:21Stone Cold Steve Austin is being assaulted!
01:16:25Michael, I'll give you any damn thing!
01:16:27The WWE best!
01:16:30You've never, ever had one of these!
01:16:33And I got news for ya!
01:16:35Stone Cold!
01:16:36This is as close as they're ever going to be!
01:16:39Yes!
01:16:40You've got no money to argue!
01:16:41This is it!
01:16:42This is it, Austin!
01:16:43This is it!
01:16:44This is it, Austin!
01:16:45This is it!
01:16:46This is it, Austin!
01:16:47This is it!
01:16:48This is it, Austin!
01:16:49This is it, Austin!
01:16:50This is it!
01:16:51His popularity is extraordinary!
01:16:54He is unquestionably the hottest superstar in the World Wrestling Federation today!
01:16:57And even I really don't know why!
01:17:05If you don't know, you should know!
01:17:07My name is Stone Cold Steve Austin!
01:17:09I've been busting my ass for eight years!
01:17:12To get this opportunity to wrestle for the WWF title at a WrestleMania!
01:17:17I won the Royal Rumble, which gave me that right!
01:17:20So Shawn Michaels, you can bet your last dollar!
01:17:23And I take this match more serious than any match I've ever had in my life!
01:17:32Can you imagine the pain that's rushing through Austin's body!
01:17:36I'm serving notice to every one of the WWF superstars, when you step through these ropes, you're asked for on screen!
01:18:00I don't give a damn what they are!
01:18:03They're all on the list!
01:18:04And that's Stone Cold's list!
01:18:06And I'm fixing to start running through all of them!
01:18:10Stone Cold!
01:18:11Stone Cold!
01:18:12Stone Cold!
01:18:13Stone Cold!
01:18:14Is going to Reptomania!
01:18:17Austin, Michaels, Tyson, the s*** is on!
01:18:23And that's the damnedest bottom line!
01:18:25I have a bottom line!
01:18:27Why?
01:18:28Hell yeah!
01:18:31Well, it is hard to believe that WrestleMania is only five weeks away.
01:18:42The Fleet Center in Boston is sold out.
01:18:44The only way to see it is on pay-per-view.
01:18:47Here we go, Jeyer!
01:18:50Listen to this ovation for Art Meryl!
01:18:53This is an information for Art Meryl!
01:18:55Stuck it back to Raw Saturday Night!
01:18:58Sable and Luna!
01:19:00Well, they went at it, King!
01:19:02They did it with a cat fight!
01:19:04The bird was flying!
01:19:05And I gotta believe that we're gonna see more of the same tonight!
01:19:08Wait a minute!
01:19:09Well, Luna is back in the locker room area!
01:19:13Meryl is dispatching Sable away from the ring!
01:19:17What?
01:19:18I don't think this will be the last time we see Sable tonight!
01:19:21We'll be right back!
01:19:22For the last two and a half minutes, this capacity crowd here in Waco have been chanting Sable.
01:19:32And his opponent-
01:19:33But to the chagrin of marvelous Mark Merrow!
01:19:36And up to 137 pounds!
01:19:38He is the World Wrestling Federation European Champion, Owen Hart!
01:19:45Owen Hart certainly proving to be the most competitive European champion ever in the WWF.
01:19:52Just two days ago on Raw Saturday night, Owen successfully defended the European title against Jeff Jarrett.
01:20:01European gold on the line here.
01:20:03And certainly depending on the outcome of this matchup, Owen Hart is scheduled to defend the European title against his arch rival,
01:20:11Triple H of D-Generation X at WrestleMania.
01:20:15J.R., you talk about these fans, they certainly are fickle.
01:20:18They cheered Mark Merrow when he came out with Sable, and then when she left, they booed him.
01:20:22It's just like the goofy fans down in Orlando, how they burned on Shaquille O'Neal yesterday.
01:20:27Well, speaking of Florida, we certainly wish our prayers and our best wishes to many of the families that were involved in the tornadic activity earlier here today.
01:20:36And again, here's the chant.
01:20:39This arena in Waco has been sold out for days and days.
01:20:43And certainly nothing like seeing the WWF live, folks.
01:20:48We've almost said it so much, we've made it cliche, but it has never been more true than now.
01:20:53And Owen Hart and marvelous Mark Merrow, and a knee right to the forehead of Merrow,
01:20:59who tried to get one move ahead of the European champion.
01:21:04First of the Irish whip, and Owen Hart keeping the challenger for the European title off balance and down.
01:21:11Merrow just doesn't seem the same without Sable out here.
01:21:16We're missing something.
01:21:18And there's a knock down by marvelous Mark Merrow.
01:21:21What a night this has been, JR.
01:21:22We started the night with the legendary LOD breaking up.
01:21:26Maybe we'll end it with Mark Merrow and Sable breaking up.
01:21:29She may be gone.
01:21:30She may not be back.
01:21:31We've seen a lot of folks walk out the back door here tonight.
01:21:35And there's a power bomb and a near fall.
01:21:38Man, the European title on the line here.
01:21:41Look here.
01:21:42She is back.
01:21:44With a look of determination on her face, Sable will pull a Tammy Wynette and stand by her man apparently.
01:21:52But no doubt that what Sable has on her mind is gaining physical retribution against Luna.
01:21:59When you see Sable, Luna can't be far behind, but Luna has no business out here.
01:22:04Look out.
01:22:05Look at this.
01:22:06A roll up by Owen Hart and a two and a half count before marvelous Mark Merrow quickly gets up.
01:22:12When is Sable gonna realize she's becoming just a distraction to marvelous Mark?
01:22:17I don't think anybody thinks of it.
01:22:19Maybe you and Owen Hart.
01:22:22There's a cradle, one, two, another near fall.
01:22:25He can't keep his mind on what's going on whenever she's out here now.
01:22:28I even saw him at no way out.
01:22:30He tripped and fell in the ring with her out here.
01:22:32That's not what I saw.
01:22:33Look at this.
01:22:34Inside cradle.
01:22:35Inside cradle at a two count.
01:22:38European title on the line.
01:22:40It has been an intense, wild, unpredictable night.
01:22:44By the way, folks, if you're in Hershey, Pennsylvania, or Lowell, Massachusetts, tickets for your big April events go on sale this Saturday in Hershey, PA, in Lowell, our debut at the new Paul Sangus Arena.
01:22:58A knockdown by the European champion, the youngest of 12 heart children.
01:23:02Proudly hailing from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
01:23:05Owen Hart.
01:23:06There's a missile drop kick that found it smart.
01:23:08And a nip up by the athletic youngster, the sole surviving heart, the black heart.
01:23:13And
01:23:17And Owen Hart is, he has looked absolutely phenomenal here.
01:23:21Leg hooked and marrow to his credit, reaches down and kicks out.
01:23:24You think Triple H is watching this right now?
01:23:26No doubt about it.
01:23:27And what will DX do to get Mike Tyson's face next week?
01:23:31You can almost feel it coming.
01:23:33And what are they, ooh, that might be X-rated.
01:23:36What do they mean when WrestleMania's gonna be X-rated?
01:23:38I'd like to hear more about that.
01:23:40I guess it's gonna be quite the night next Monday night in Cleveland.
01:23:43And Meryl now.
01:23:46Look at this!
01:23:47That's not very bright by Meryl, but maybe that shouldn't be surprising.
01:23:52The European titles on the line.
01:23:54Just put himself in jeopardy of being disqualified.
01:23:58Downstairs, the referee didn't see that.
01:24:02That was a galana, a low blow by Meryl.
01:24:06And now Meryl may be a TKO away from the European title.
01:24:11Wow, Marc Meryl never saw a belt without hitting below it.
01:24:14Look out!
01:24:15A counter, a counter to the TKO by Hart and to the DDT.
01:24:19Owen Hart trying to walk off that low blow.
01:24:25Sharpshooter.
01:24:27Nobody applies a sharpshooter like Owen Hart.
01:24:30He's got a locked on Meryl.
01:24:32No!
01:24:33And the referee's calling for the belt.
01:24:35See what you did, Sable?
01:24:37She didn't do anything.
01:24:39Distraction.
01:24:40I don't understand.
01:24:43Owen Hart.
01:24:44Well, the referee's disqualifying Meryl, I guess, for the shove.
01:24:47Here comes trouble.
01:24:50Where?
01:24:51Here comes trouble.
01:24:52Uh-oh!
01:24:53This is gonna pick up.
01:24:55Here we go.
01:24:56Look out, Marc, look at this.
01:24:58Meryl restraining Sable.
01:25:02Goldust and the referee's attempting to restrain that buzzsaw, Luna.
01:25:06It's Luna, it's Sable, it's Luna, Sable.
01:25:09Let them fight.
01:25:10Let them fight.
01:25:11Let them go.
01:25:12Meryl trying to protect Sable.
01:25:14They're gonna go.
01:25:17And there they go, here we go.
01:25:20We saw quite the altercation, a memorable altercation on Saturday night.
01:25:28Look, Marc Meryl's trying to protect Sable and she made him trip again.
01:25:32And now Goldust is trying to protect Sable from Luna.
01:25:37That's not your business, Goldust.
01:25:39Whoa!
01:25:40Meryl taking exception.
01:25:41What did I tell you?
01:25:42And now Meryl hammering away on Goldust.
01:25:45Meryl assaulting Goldust.
01:25:50They were just partners a little over a week ago.
01:25:53It'll happen every time.
01:25:54Don't get involved in a domestic dispute.
01:25:57Look out here.
01:25:58Tony Gurria now trying to keep Sable and Luna apart.
01:26:03We've got referees and commissioners there.
01:26:05They wanna go.
01:26:06Let them go.
01:26:07Luna and Sable wanna fight.
01:26:10Let them.
01:26:11Let them.
01:26:12Let them.
01:26:13They wanna settle this thing.
01:26:14Look at Meryl.
01:26:16As indignant as Meryl is with Sable, he doesn't want anybody else protecting her but him.
01:26:23Get back in there, Luna.
01:26:25Let Luna go, let her get in there.
01:26:30You get your ass back here, you little bitch.
01:26:36My.
01:26:37Here we go.
01:26:39Luna wants, Luna's trying to get, Luna's knocked down Goldust.
01:26:44Goldust tripped.
01:26:46She's not gonna take that.
01:26:47There goes Sable.
01:26:48The fight will be on.
01:26:51Get her.
01:26:52There goes Sable.
01:26:53Get her.
01:26:54Let her go.
