00:00We're back, ladies and gentlemen, on a night when Raw is War.
00:05And here we go, Mankind and Vader, perhaps the next Tag Team champion.
00:09The following Tag Team contest is scheduled for one call.
00:12Entering the ring, accompanied by Paul Bearer at a total combined weight of
00:21742 pounds, the man may call Vader and Mankind.
00:30And Conn and Vader to lock up against the reluctant combination.
00:34The combination indeed that will clash together for the WWE Championship,
00:38assuming Bret Hart is not successful.
00:41Their opponents, at the total combined weight of 600 pounds.
00:45And here comes the WWE Champion.
00:49First from West Memphis, Arkansas,
00:52the World Wrestling Federation Champion,
00:54the World Wrestling Federation Champion.
00:55Time to fill it.
01:02.
01:05.
01:06.
01:06.
01:07.
01:07.
01:23Perhaps the most dominating WWE Champion ever.
01:31And there he is, Vader lurking in the shadows.
01:37Well, this matchup could have great revelations when you think about the fact
01:41that Sid and Undertaker are scheduled to meet at WrestleMania for the WWE title.
01:48We've also found out that right here, and we found out tonight,
01:51that next Monday night inside of Steel Caves, it'll be Sid and Bret Hart for
01:56the WWE title.
01:58Uh-oh, here we go.
01:59Mankind and Vader, double teaming Sid.
02:02Sid trying to hammer his way out of this.
02:05Elbows, Undertaker is not here as of yet.
02:08Vader and Mankind wasted no time in the official inadvertently, I believe,
02:12ring the bell and Vader's down.
02:14He can never take on both of them.
02:16He's gonna have to have a partner.
02:18And Sid, at this juncture, being able to keep Mankind at bay.
02:24And from behind, Vader crashing down on his back.
02:28Big, powerful Vader now.
02:30No, look at this.
02:32And again, you have to wonder where The Undertaker is.
02:38This is the ultimate handicap matchup.
02:40And one that, as Honky Tonk Man said, Sid will not win, no one individual will.
02:46No, not against these two guys, it's impossible.
02:48Vader and Mankind are double tough, they're deadly.
02:51And at WrestleMania, they had a chance to be the next tag team champion.
02:54And comes The Undertaker.
03:05Undertaker, underneath the clothesline from beyond.
03:14Chokeslam, he got it.
03:17A chokeslam for the 450 pound fader who doesn't know where he is now.
03:22Yes, he does, he's over the top, he's out of here.
03:24What a boot to the head.
03:28And Mankind now.
03:30The proof go outside.
03:34Undertaker landed on his feet, Mankind landed on his hip.
03:38Got it to the steps.
03:43The Undertaker.
03:46Back in the ring, I'm not so sure he's a legal man, or whether it's Sid.
03:50It's gotta be Sid.
03:51Or does it matter?
03:56Uh-oh, and Mankind, we saw earlier on with his commentary.
04:06A cracked skull will not hurt Mankind, he kinda likes that, he likes it that way.
04:15What a clothesline, we got a late start, ladies and gentlemen, on our tag team matchup.
04:23And we're gonna make an effort to ask USA to try and bear with us as best as possible.
04:28Look out, this one's history, we're not gonna need any additional time.
04:32Yes, well, look at that, check out.
04:35See, it got the left shoulder up, a testament to the courage of the WWF champion.
04:39So much emotion running rampant in this contest, so much on the line.
04:45None afforded in this matchup can afford an injury just 13 days away from
04:51WrestleMania when the stakes get as high as they can be.
04:54It's the biggest day in the career of any World Wrestling Federation superstar.
04:59It's WrestleMania, and you're right.
05:01These guys have to fight tooth and nail now to make it the next 13 days.
05:07WrestleMania 13, ladies and gentlemen, in a matchup that we'll see Sid one on one,
05:12defending a WWE title, assuming the Hitman Bret Hart does not defeat him next week
05:16in a steel cage match here on Raw.
05:20Assuming Sid holds on to the title, of course, he'll face The Undertaker.
05:24And it's been a long, hard road for The Undertaker to finally be in position of
05:29taking all the gold.
05:30Well, it certainly is.
05:31And of course, right here next week on Raw Live from the Arm Center in Syracuse,
05:36War Memorial, that whole thing could change.
05:39Bret Hart wins the cage match next Monday night.
05:42Bret Hart and Steve Austin will then wrestle for the WWF title at WrestleMania.
05:47I can never remember going into a WrestleMania with so much up in the air and
05:52with so many major changes that look like they could occur.
05:56And his capacity crowd, partisan indeed, very much behind Psycho Sid.
06:01And he noticed that King has not rejoined us since his debate.
06:05The great debate.
06:06A lot thereof.
06:08King asking for his friends to come out and join him, and they all did.
06:12No one showed up.
06:13I told you there's no audio back in the dressing room area.
06:16The boys could not hear him.
06:18No one could hear the King asking for help.
06:22Psycho Sid could use some help right now.
06:24Speaking of championships, of course, Vader and Mankind are hopeful that they
06:28will be the tag team champions at WrestleMania.
06:32Who knows what's gonna happen here in this matchup.
06:35Sid's starting to make a move.
06:36Unfortunately, we're gonna have to take this commercial break.
06:38Stay with us for more tag team action.
06:41We are live, yes, the tag team matchup.
06:45What a suplex Sid, just suplexing the man they call Vader.
06:49And The Undertaker, Undertaker, hammering away on Mankind.
06:57And ladies and gentlemen, we've asked for more time from USA Network and
07:01they have considered-
07:03No one in the corner for the tag.
07:07You better adjust those VCRs, cuz we aren't going away.
07:11No, indeed.
07:12We've been granted a little more time, ladies and gentlemen.
07:14And we thank you very much for joining us tonight on a night when Raw is war.
07:20On a night next week when Bret the Hitman Hart will attempt to defeat Psycho Sid.
07:26Here's a cover for the WWF Championship inside a steel couch.
07:31Here we go, Undertaker, here he comes.
07:36Undertaker, unwinding on Mankind.
07:38Undertaker sets him up for the ride.
07:40Coming up to Raw.
07:44We thank USA Network for allowing him to come slam.
07:52And now, this win is, no, no it's not.
07:56And again, The Undertaker and Psycho Sid not getting along.
08:01Obviously, they are opponents at WrestleMania.
08:03They were certainly reluctant tag team partners.
08:06And thus far, we have seen a little in the way of-
08:09Wait a minute.
08:10The Undertaker just went for Vader and he just clobbered Sid.
08:13What a right hand by The Undertaker.
08:15He's gotta make you wonder what's gonna happen right here next Monday night.
08:18WWF title online.
08:19Is it just nailed in?
08:20Uh-oh.
08:21No, it's breaking down.
08:28Undertaker and Sid, we're not gonna wait for WrestleMania.
08:30They're partners, they're partners.
08:34The partnership has been designed.
08:38Did you see that?
08:48The Undertaker, who's supposed to meet Psycho Sid for the WWF Championship in
08:55WrestleMania.
08:56They were reluctant tag team partners coming in here.
08:59Look at this.
09:00Almost a count of three on Sid when he was able to kick out.
09:05And you can bet The Undertaker can't be too pleased by the announcement.
09:10Uh-oh.
09:12That was made with a hitman.
09:14Did you see this?
09:16No.
09:17Bret Hart and Sid right here next week in the cage.
09:20Live on Raw next Monday.
09:23Powerbomb, powerbomb.
09:26Powerbomb.
09:27Dead Man Land.
09:31And Sid nailing Mankind for good measure, and I think he's walking out.
09:36And Vader has just covered The Undertaker.
09:38Two.
09:39He got him.
09:40Vader defeating The Undertaker again.
09:42Here are your winners, the team of The Man They Call Vader and Mankind.
09:50Unbelievable, Sid and The Undertaker.
09:52Ladies and gentlemen, they will be opponents.
09:55Opponents, and look at this, they were partners opposed.
10:01Sid prevented Vader from coming off the top.
10:04And The Undertaker's back up, and the fight is on.
10:10Undertaker unloading on Vader all the way over to the top.
10:16Undertaker going after Mankind.
10:19The Undertaker wants Sid.
10:21The Undertaker wants Sid.
10:23He's going back after him.
10:25He's going to the dressing room.
