00:00The following tag team attraction is scheduled for one fall with TV time remaining.
00:06In the ring being accompanied by Chyna from Greenwich, Connecticut.
00:10Weighing in at 244 pounds, the king of the ring, Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
00:18An extraordinary competitor.
00:21This year's king of the ring, Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
00:23And Chyna makes him all the more dangerous.
00:28And his sexy partner from San Antonio, Texas, playing in at 234 pounds, the heartbreak kid, Shawn Michaels.
00:42Oh!
00:42I'm down there, it's fine.
00:45I'm just a sexy for you.
00:48I'm not a boy.
00:52I'm just a sexy for you.
00:56I'm not a boy.
01:00I make them hot.
01:03I make them shiver.
01:05They're missing me.
01:06I make them hot.
01:33Shawn Michaels is not impressing China, but you can bet he impressed everyone last week.
01:39One of the great matches that you'll only see in the WWF.
01:42It was a grueling physical encounter when Michaels and Mankind went at it last week.
01:48As a result of that, and Helmsley's interaction and what have you.
01:53Commissioner Slaughter has ordered some reluctant tag team partners.
01:58And what a matchup this is likely to be.
02:01The question here is how will all these egos coexist?
02:04How will the giant ego of Shawn Michaels and that of Hunter Hearst Helmsley coexist?
02:09And how can The Undertaker and Mankind forgive and forget?
02:15Whoa! Whoa!
02:19And his sang team partner, from Death Valley, weighing in at 328 pounds, The Undertaker!
02:44He may not be the World Wrestling Federation Champion, due to a fluke, but he is the phenom.
02:55He is still the man, make no mistake about it, he is still the man.
03:05And Shawn Michaels will come face to face with The Reaper tonight, right here,
03:13moments from now, live on Raw, from Atlantic City, New Jersey.
03:19And the other three.
03:20All right.
03:38Whoa!
03:40Whoa!
03:43Whoa!
03:45Whoa!
03:47Whoa!
03:47Whoa!
03:57Shawn Michaels is likely to be very very reluctant to lock up with The Undertaker.
04:03And The Undertaker is gonna be very very reluctant to trust mankind.
04:09But nonetheless, whether it was intentional or unintentional,
04:13Shawn Michaels cost The Undertaker the World Wrestling Federation title at SummerSlam.
04:20No one can deny that, whether you're a Shawn Michaels fan or not.
04:24No one wants to start this match.
04:27The Undertaker does.
04:30I think Mankind does.
04:32Helmsley, Mankind had a heck of a cage match at SummerSlam.
04:35Their rivalry is far, far from over, no doubt about that.
04:39And here we go, we might pick up right where we left off at SummerSlam.
04:42Hunter Hearst, Helmsley, and Mankind.
04:47Mankind in an unbelievable, grueling matchup we alluded to earlier last week.
04:52With Shawn Michaels and-
04:54Look at this, here comes Shawn Michaels.
05:01Shawn Michaels being hammered by Mankind.
05:03Hunter Hearst, Helmsley hammered.
05:05Thus far, Mankind pretty much in control.
05:10And the official will have some degree of difficulty maintained in this match.
05:16There's a little teamwork, uh-oh, look out.
05:18Yeah, but look at Mankind, Mankind's fighting its way out of it.
05:22It remains to be seen just how effective Hunter Hearst, Helmsley, and
05:26Shawn Michaels will be as a team.
05:28Let's go.
05:33And Undertaker tagged in Mankind, and Shawn Michaels makes a quick exit.
05:38Helmsley is a legal man in the ring.
05:40Hold on, you gotta go.
05:41You get him, you get him.
05:43Hold on, you get him.
05:46And some encouragement by Shawn Michaels, as Hunter Hearst Helmsley will now enter the ring.
05:58And Undertaker distracted by Michaels, and Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
06:02Certainly taking full advantage, and look at this, look at Shawn Michaels.
06:05There you go.
06:06As quick as a cat.
06:09Michaels can certainly be an antagonist, and look at the power.
06:12Look at Michaels trying to distract The Undertaker, and he's succeeded.
06:28And Michaels on the apron.
06:33And he got some of that, a glancing on Sweet Chin Music, Undertaker now at
06:38Disadvantage, and Michaels is ready and happy to get the tag.
06:42And The Undertaker, Michaels is just so quick.
06:45He's just wearing The Undertaker out.
06:48Michaels is waiting like fast.
06:50You said he's charismatic.
06:54He's opportunistic, you better take the opportunity to leave, and he did.
06:58Hey, what's he doing?
07:01Come on.
07:05He's caught him.
07:06Wait a minute, wait just a moment.
07:09Could this be the insurance policy?
07:12Walking down to ringside, stay with us ladies and gentlemen.
07:15We'll take this break.
07:18We're live ladies and gentlemen, welcome back.
07:20Reluctant tag team matchup signed by Commissioner Slaughter.
07:23And now just tagging in Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
07:25It's Helmsley now against Mankind.
07:28Here we go.
07:35And Chyna behind the officials back.
07:42And Chyna, the bodyguard of Hunter Hearst Helmsley,
07:46took Mankind's feet right out from under him and split the post with his legs.
07:50She can be a real difference maker.
07:52And now Shawn Michaels has the tag.
07:55No Undertaker in there.
07:56And Undertaker yet to get his hands on Shawn Michaels.
08:02And there's some of that athleticism we alluded to.
08:05No question Shawn Michaels whether you like him or not.
08:07Truly one of the great athletes of our era.
08:20And that's the first effort.
08:23Here we go with the tag.
08:24No.
08:24First effort we have seen on the part of Michaels and Hunter Hearst Helmsley in
08:29terms of tag team coordination.
08:30It's a great move to show teamwork.
08:32It showed that they have spoken.
08:34Uh-oh, right out here in front of us now, be careful.
08:38Hunter Hearst Helmsley with Mankind and Shawn Michaels attacking Helmsley from behind.
08:43So from a tag team standpoint, it would appear- Look out.
08:47No.
08:50That Michaels and Helmsley seem to be coordinated a bit better than Mankind and
08:58The Undertaker.
08:59Mankind and The Undertaker have been bitter rivals in the past.
09:02And there you see Ravaging Rick Rude in the lower portion of the right hand down the screen there
09:07just a moment ago.
09:08The insurance policy that Michaels was waving down earlier.
09:13Well, I think Shawn Michaels and Hunter Hearst Helmsley have resigned themselves to the fact
09:16that if they don't operate as a team, they're gonna get their butts kicked out here, or maybe even worse.
09:22And Michaels taunting The Undertaker.
09:24Michaels is like a Benny Rooster.
09:27More like a pit bull, Jay.
09:29This man can do some damage to you, he's lethal.
09:39And Hunter Hearst Helmsley just hammering away, and Michaels again taunting The Undertaker.
09:52John Michaels, who will face The Undertaker in one-on-one action at ground zero.
09:57Uh-oh.
10:01But The Undertaker counting on getting his hands on Michaels, here tonight, live.
10:06Perhaps now will be the opportunity, Michaels the legal man in the ring.
10:13Michael's and Mankind going at it just as they did last week.
10:17Maybe Mankind could all of a sudden become dude love and do a little better, what do you think?
10:21I don't know.
10:24Snap suplex, nicely executed by Shawn Michaels.
10:30Michaels is arrogant, no doubt about that, he is cocky.
10:33Uh-oh, here we go.
10:34And you have his kind of athleticism, perhaps you can be.
10:37And Michaels hits it.
10:41Perhaps time for some sweet chin music, here we go.
10:48Michaels made the tag with Helmsley.
10:50Yeah, boom, Mankind catches, look at Mankind now.
10:57Mankind had the hold on Michaels, however, Helmsley, no.
11:01Helmsley tried to get the pedigree on him, Mankind back to the corner.
11:08Look like somebody just got mugged on the boardwalk.
11:12How does it happen in Atlantic City?
11:14Of course not.
11:16And Undertaker, desperately trying to get them to match, here's a tag, yes, here we go.
11:28The Phenom is cooking.
11:30Undertaker now, under the clothesline.
11:40The Phenom is cooking and Shawn Michaels is conveniently out of the kitchen.
11:44Over the top to the outside.
11:46And Helms is in trouble, wait a minute, Michaels has been caught.
11:49No, yeah.
11:56What a right hand by The Undertaker.
11:59And Helms has got a chair.
12:06The Undertaker is going to follow him, Undertaker now just might get his hands on Rick Rude, and now-
12:20The Undertaker is in the ring, the Undertaker is going to follow him.
12:28Undertaker now just might get his hands on Rick Rude, and now-
12:31He has his hands on Rick Rude, he has his hands on Rick Rude, he has his hands on Rick
12:39Rude.
12:41No!
12:45My God, what a shot to the face, look at that chair, Michaels is dead in the chair.
12:53The Undertaker, trying Michaels, an obvious disqualification.
12:57Here it goes with The Undertaker.
13:01And-
13:04The Undertaker's been busting wide open.
13:06The Undertaker, Undertaker.
13:26My God!
13:28going up.
13:31My God.
13:32My God!
