00:00Think about it and make a quick decision.
00:04Come in to the squared circle.
00:09One on one.
00:16Well, obviously we're out of time.
00:18I've already thought about it.
00:19Savage, don't do it, you'll get hurt.
00:22What are you talking about?
00:24You gotta be out of your mind, but we already know that, don't we?
00:27You better sit down before he- We'll be right back.
00:29Don't the clown victorious.
00:30Let's take a seat here.
00:31Brother, you're out of line.
00:32Hey, macho man.
00:33When it does happen, and next week will be fine with me, you won't be seeing double vision.
00:45You'll be seeing- Hey, wait a minute.
00:48Triple vision.
00:49What?
00:50Hey, wait a minute.
00:51Not fair.
00:52There's three of them.
00:53I can't believe it.

02:08What?
02:09Oh, yeah!
02:10Who'd have thought it would be Doink though, 17 down!
02:11One on one!
02:12What makes you think Doink is going to be just one on one?
02:1317 of them beat up Crush!
02:14Who knows what Doink's got in store!
02:15All right, standing by right now, watch out there Randy Savage, over there!
02:16Can you hear us?
02:17I'm jacked up and pooped up to the mat right here in Alexandria Bay, land of a thousand
02:18But I just might have a surprise myself, a little one, you know what I mean?
02:23Pumped up, go get him, yeah.
02:25All right, thank you very much.
02:27What a matchup that's gonna be.
02:29Macho Man with his own surprise.
02:32Here we go now with the Tag Team Champions on their way.
02:36The Styler Brothers on their way to the square circle and
02:41on their way to SummerSlam.
02:44In just four weeks time, the Styler Brothers have signed an open contract.
02:49They're looking for the Tag Team title against anybody.
02:52They just wanna go back home to Detroit, Michigan.
02:55What a wonderful wish, to go back home to the Motor City to Detroit.
03:00Well, that's something to shoot for.
03:02Shows you how bright they are, McMahon.
03:03Here are the World Wrestling Federation Champions, and
03:06they signed an open contract.
03:08They're real bright guys.
03:10The Miss Clarities, a moment ago, waving the red, white, and blue.
03:13And perhaps out of deference to the one and
03:16the only, the American original, Lex Luger.
03:19And our five-part series of Who Is Lex Luger begins this week on Monday night.
03:24Raw, we'll talk to Lex about his earlier years.
03:29He better remember those early years.
03:31Maybe remember a job he had as a paperboy or a soda jerk.
03:34Because Yokozuna is gonna put him out at the WWF.
03:38That remains to be seen.
03:39All right, starting action off here now.
03:41Scott Steiner backing Horowitz to the corner.
03:44Horowitz, hold over the top.
03:45Yeah, nice maneuver.
03:48All right, what does Horowitz and his tag partner, Dwayne Gill,
03:51have to do to defeat the Steiner Brothers, Bobby?
03:55Maybe a chainsaw.
03:57Chainsaws aren't allowed.
03:58Well, then I don't know how they're gonna beat the Steiners.
04:00The Steiners are an amazing team.
04:02I don't like their personality, but I like what they do in that ring.
04:05They pick up human beings and heave them through the air.
04:08What's wrong with their personalities?
04:09They're great guys.
04:10They wear those Mickey and Minnie coats and
04:12they like to sign autographs and talk to the humanoids.
04:14That's a waste of time.
04:15Look at this, Horowitz can't get Steiner out of the corner.
04:18Lifts the knee, that'll get him out.
04:19Swing and no, reverse into the corner.
04:22Aha, putting on the brakes there, Scott Steiner,
04:23pats himself in the back, Horowitz does.
04:25And now, Steiner sets up Horowitz, coming off the rope now, and, uh-oh.
04:29Trouble in River City, more like Alexandria Bay.
04:33Yes, sir, what a suplex.
04:37Now, you notice they don't put any holds on their opponents.
04:39They just pick them up and start breaking their bones.
04:42What's gonna happen when the Steiner brothers get to Detroit?
04:45What kind of an impression do you think they wanna make on the hometown fans in
04:48four weeks time at SummerSlam?
04:51I imagine they'll have the usual big parade for the Steiners.
04:54Yep. Three rusted cars and
04:55one guy throwing confetti if he can tear up the Detroit free press good enough.
04:59Nothing big, nothing big for these two losers.
05:01I sort of gather you're not too fond of the Detroit area.
05:04No, I don't like it.
05:05Too many blue collar people.
05:07Oh, you're too much.
05:09All right, in the ring right now, Rick Steiner.
05:12And Rick Steiner will attempt to have his way with Barry Horowitz.
05:16And he will.
05:19You have to get into the match now, Dwayne Gill.
05:20Oop, there we go.
05:21I got him, I got him.
05:23And a little double team effort going on here.
05:25And Alexandria Bay, what a gorgeous area up here in upstate New York.
05:29Off the rope, my goodness, what a clothesline.
05:32We're close to Canadian border, aren't we?
05:34Very close.
05:35I noticed Steiner's wearing his earmuffs.
05:36Those aren't earmuffs, they should be.
05:42Reaching for the tag now, and here comes Scott back in.
05:45Dwayne Gill wide open, and this looks like it's gonna be trouble.
05:49My, where's he going now?
05:50He's going down to the canvas.
05:53By the way, in a few moments,
05:54ladies and gentlemen, we'll take you back to the interview conducted.
05:57I personally had the pleasure and privilege of sitting down with Lex Luger and
06:01finding out just who is Lex Luger.
06:05Look at that, Frankensteiner, forget about it.
06:07He's done.
06:08After that, nobody gets up to count of three, it's history.
06:12And Steiner's on their way to SummerSlam.
06:18To the Grimlin Tag Team Championship and a hometown crowd of Suburban Detroit.
06:25All right, let's take you back now to the interview that was conducted.
06:27I think you'll find Lex Luger to be an informative, honest,
06:31interesting, proud, and patriotic.
06:38I never had a gung-ho dad when it came to sports at all.
06:41My dad was on a music scholarship studying to be a concert pianist.
06:45And when he was in college, he studied the arts, he studied music.
06:50He stressed that in our lives, but more than anything, he stressed academics.
06:54And as I grew up and wanted to participate in athletics and
06:57wanted that outlet, he made it crystal clear to me that if I didn't get
07:02straight A's in school, that I wasn't gonna be allowed to participate in athletics.
07:07My dad said that, straight A's, and he meant it, and I knew that.
07:11They made me participate in one, like I had to be in chorus or band.
07:16One other aspect of growing up, they wanted me to be well-rounded.
07:20And looking back on it, I remember singing in chorus and
07:22my friends making fun of me and everything when I was in front of the school.
07:25But looking back on it now, I think it made me a more well-rounded individual.
07:30And it wasn't such a bad thing.
07:34It's a strange thing, I think, in my life.
07:38I've always had, I don't know how to put it, the certain feeling that,
07:44because I think I moved around from place to place as a youngster.
07:48I think I used athletics as my calling card, actually as my form of
07:52communication for social acceptance, for friends.
07:56And I was actually, I'm basically, even to this day,
07:59a lot of my friends who knew me when I grew up, I'd laugh or
08:04they're shocked when they see me on TV in front of millions of viewers wrestling on
08:08TV or talking, cuz I was actually, as I grew up, very shy and introverted.
08:12It's a funny thing, as a matter of fact.
08:13I remember in high school, and here I am excelling in athletics,
08:20fortunate enough to do that.
08:21And I was so shy, I never asked a girl out on a date in high school.
08:26The only time I went to a dance in high school was at the Sadie Hawkins when
08:28the girls asked the guys.
08:30It was an amazing thing.
08:32And I think if you excel in sports and people look at you in a certain way,
08:37I think cuz I was rather quiet and shy and rather introverted,
08:43I think a lot of times that's mistaken as being arrogant by people who don't know you.
08:47My friends who really got to know me knew better.
08:50But when people look at you, they want to stereotype you or
08:54prejudge you by how you look and how you act.
08:56If you're shy, but you excel at something, they think you're arrogant or
09:00stuck on yourself.
09:01And it's like a vicious circle.
09:03The more people think about you, and if you're shy,
09:06the more it almost propagates itself.
09:07It was really strange.
09:10And sometimes I feel I fight that to this day, now,
09:15even in my career with people on television or in the press many times.
09:19Vince McMahon here along with Bobby the Brain, Heenan, and
09:22Themis Clarity is back on Monday Night Raw.
09:25And next week, Lex Luger will be here.
09:27Lex Luger, ladies and gentlemen, will face this squared circle.
09:31And he will come face to face with the World Wrestling Federation Champion.
09:36Over 550 pounds of Yokozuna.
09:40And they will sit down before WWF President Jack Tunney, and
09:44we will have the official contract signing for the main event.
09:48For the main event, the World Wrestling Federation title matchup at SummerSlam.
09:52You have a very bad memory, McMahon.
09:54You remember the last time Yokozuna and Mr.
09:57Fuji sat down for a contract signing was with Bret the Hitman Hart when he was
10:01WWF Champion, and they had to carry the Hitman out.
10:05And he lost the title at WrestleMania because of Yokozuna.
10:09Anything can happen.
10:10Are you insinuating that next week we're likely to have a melee during that
10:14contract signing, Bobby Heenan?
10:15If I was a betting man, that's the way I'd bet.
10:18I wouldn't put my money on the shy one, Lex Luger.
10:21I see.
10:22Take a look at this, ladies and gentlemen.
10:25It's Adam Bomb.
10:26And there's a good look at someone looking at Adam Bomb.
10:29He's a very impressive athlete, no question about that.
10:32And a little on the eccentric side, I would say, Bobby Heenan.
10:35Look at his eyes.
10:36I can't see his eyes.
10:37You will in a minute.
10:38Look at his tongue.
10:39Hey, back one got glasses.
10:41I beg your pardon?
10:41That's not back one.
10:43That's Adam Bomb.
10:44Tony Roy in the background.
10:46You wonder what's going on in Tony Roy's mind.
10:49What's he gonna do to defeat this big monster of a man?
10:52Look at this.
10:55Boy, if you ran a Geiger counter around him, would it tick?
10:57Mm, mm, mm.
11:01Adam Bomb, along with his manager Johnny Polo.
11:05Some of the ladies about ringside think he's a little interesting,
11:09perhaps, to look at.
11:10Tony Roy ready to lock up.
11:12What do you do if you're Tony Roy?
11:13You go down Bobby Heenan and take his chucks out from under him?
11:17Try and knock him off his feet?
11:18No, you try to make a deal with him.
11:20You try to clear the deal.
11:21I'm not making a deal.
11:22That's something you might do.
11:24I'm talking about wrestling Bobby Heenan.
11:26How do you lock up with a man like this, tight waist down to the canvas?
11:29Well, you don't stand toe to toe with him.
11:31Obviously, you don't want to get him down either.
11:32He knows how to wrestle.
11:33He's just a big, massive human being.
11:35Adam Bomb manhandling Tony Roy.
11:38Talk about manhandling, by the way.
11:40What about that huge USA premiere here on Wednesday night at 9 o'clock Eastern?
11:47A world premiere, ladies and gentlemen.
11:49It's the movie Marilyn and Bobby, her final affair.
11:54You know, whatever you hear about me and Marilyn, it's not true.
11:57We're good friends, but it didn't really happen.
11:59It wasn't an affair.
12:00What?
12:01You knew Marilyn Monroe?
12:03Monroe?
12:04I thought you were talking about Quayle.
12:06I think everyone at TV Land should give a big round of applause to my parents for
12:10having me.
12:11Johnny Polo in his commentary, along with Bobby Heenan, equally absurd.
12:16Marilyn Quayle.
12:17That was a long time ago, too.
12:20Nonetheless, ladies and gentlemen, Marilyn and Bobby,
12:22her final affair right here on USA, Wednesday night.
12:26The world premiere at 9 o'clock Eastern.
12:30Tony Roy's getting a premiere of sorts against Adam Bomb.
12:34Look at this one.
12:35Adam Bomb, pretty much manhandling Tony Roy all the way through this.
12:39Suplex of sorts.
12:40Johnny Polo's a heck of an athlete, too, you know.
12:43Johnny Polo?
12:44Oh, you should see him play badminton, nonstop, two, three hours.
12:48Badminton?
12:49Yes, strenuous.
12:50And look at this, ladies and gentlemen.
12:52Perched on the top rope, Adam Bomb, like a giant condor and a leopard.
12:58And look at this, ladies and gentlemen, perched on the top rope, Adam Bomb,
13:02like a giant condor and a leaflet goes right on Roy.
13:09You know what's coming next?
13:10I believe so.
13:11Adam Bomb now, cinching up Roy.
13:13This looks like trouble for Roy.
13:15Down.
13:17Adam Smasher.
13:18Down for the count, the cover, and this was history.
13:23By the way, we spoke earlier on about next week with
13:26The American original, Lax Luber coming face to face with Yokozuna for
13:30the official contract signing.
13:33Next week, there's a match you don't wanna miss right here on Monday Night Raw.
13:38Tatanka, the Native American Indian remains unbeaten in the WWF.
13:44Mr. Hughes, he's breaking streaks and
13:47breaking backs as he climbs the ranks of the WWF.
13:52Two fierce gladiators collide in the squared circle.
13:56Next week on Monday Night Raw.
13:58What a matchup next week, but right now, here he comes on his unicycle.
14:06Evil Clown Doink and what a matchup this is gonna be.
14:11You recall Bobby Heenan when all of a sudden last week a challenge was made.
14:14We saw not one, not two, but three doinks.
14:18How many doinks will we see tonight?
14:20What sort of jitcatery is that evil clown up to?
14:24Who knows?
14:24I have no idea, but he never lets you down.
14:27He always makes you laugh.
14:28He always makes you happy.
14:30Laughs at me?
14:31Yeah, I have a good time.
14:33Yeah, only you won.
14:34Little Macho Man Randy Savage have a good time?
14:37We'll find out.
14:38Welcome back to our Monday Night Raw.
14:42He's your buddy.
15:07All right, Macho Man Randy Savage standing up for him.
15:10Bobby, go for it.
15:11All right, yes, that's what it's all about right there, Bobby Heenan.
15:15And it's coming after you.
15:16You're picking on me, Ford.
15:20Well, this is gonna be a surprise and a half, I can tell you that.
15:24The Dixie Overdork, one, two, three.
15:27Well, that's what you think, Savage is full of surprises.
15:30But you can't outsmart Dork.
15:32Look at Dork, laying flat on his back.
15:34Come on, come and get it, Savage.
15:36He's crafty, no question about that.
15:38Very, very cagey day in crafty, Dork.
15:41But that's a bad move to make.
15:43You lay down and give Savage an inch, you'll kick his teeth in.
15:47What a matchup this is gonna be.
15:49Randy Savage likely to have problems with Dork the Clown.
15:52Everyone's had problems with Dork the Clown.
15:54You remember Crush certainly had his problems.
15:56And again, Crush really had his problems with the WWF champion Yokozuna.
16:01Suffering the collapsed chest cavity.
16:03And by the way, Macho Man Randy Savage is dedicating this matchup with
16:08Dork to Crush, who was convalescing in Kona, Hawaii.
16:13Crush, move over.
16:15I beg your pardon?
16:15Yeah, share your bedpan with Savage, cuz he's on the way.
16:19He's gonna be recuperating too when Dork gets done with him.
16:23Crush is likely to return to WWF action very soon.
16:27He will not forget Dork the Clown, certainly will he not forget.
16:31Wait a minute.
16:32Macho Man Randy Savage.
16:33What's going on?
16:37He's looking for more Dork.
16:38You know what, you don't blame him.
16:40Believe me, I looked under there a couple hours ago.
16:42There's nothing under there but a couple boards and some plywood and some tools.
16:46He can take your word for it, right?
16:47No problem. You can trust me.
16:48Of course he can.
16:49I'm a broadcast journalist.
16:51Randy Savage looking under that ring to make sure that he did not see
16:55any more Dorks.
16:56Who knows how many Dorks we're gonna see tonight at Alexandria Bay.
17:01You know what is so frightening to me?
17:03Dork is in there and he's laughing and he's moving around.
17:06Now you know the way Dork wrestles.
17:07He's a skilled wrestler.
17:08He wouldn't be in there laughing,
17:10especially with an opponent like Macho Man Randy Savage.
17:13This is all something to trap Savage.
17:16Shows you how sick this man is.
17:17I love it.
17:18Uh-huh.
17:20Savage missing with a left hand there and Dork laughs at it.
17:23Well, I don't think he's gonna be laughing.
17:25When this matchup is over, not at all.
17:29Dork as crafty and as cagey as he is, he's in there against the consummate athlete.
17:35He's in there against the man who knows strategy inside and out.
17:38And by the way, I wonder what Randy Savage was talking about when he said
17:42he was gonna have a little surprise for Dork.
17:46I'm glad to take that.
17:47Well, that's just psychological warfare he's using.
17:50I see.
17:50Dork's the man with the surprises.
17:53But you have to give him credit.
17:54Savage two time WWF champion, Intercontinental champion.
17:57He's done it all.
18:00Randy Savage.
18:01Look at Dork, he's having a ball.
18:05So far.
18:07You get the impression Randy Savage is very much enjoying this matchup so far.
18:13Hey, come on, ref, get in there, come on.
18:19And that's one thing you don't wanna do.
18:20You don't wanna, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
18:22Wait a minute, you don't wanna make Randy Savage angry.
18:24Randy Savage with that chair.
18:26This is gonna get ugly.
18:27This is gonna, referee grabbing that chair.
18:28Look at this, going all over Randy Savage.
18:30Boy, that's a professional, isn't it?
18:32He suckered Savage into that.
18:34He knew Savage would jump out of the ring and pick up a table or a chair.
18:37He wanted him to make a mistake, and he did.
18:39I don't think so.
18:40I think he's gonna regret that.
18:41But right now, it's going all over the Macho Man, Randy Savage.
18:43Hammering away, pummeling Randy Savage.
18:46Look at this, all over his throat.
18:49Come on, ref.
18:50What's the referee doing in there anyhow?
18:52Come on.
18:52He's got to a count of five, McMahon.
18:54He can break it.
18:55Off line, down goes Randy Savage.
18:57Doink is just all over the Macho Man.
18:59Setting him up now for the Boston Trap, trying to end this winnerly.
19:02Ring the bell, ring the bell.
19:03The submission hold of the Macho Man, Randy Savage.
19:06Ring the bell, ref.
19:07Give it up, Savage.
19:09Randy Savage hanging on.
19:11And Doink applying more and more pressure.
19:14Break his back so he can't come back and sit on a chair next to me.
19:18Doink now, trying to get even more leverage on the Macho Man.
19:21Look at that, squeezing a rope.
19:22Come on, ref.
19:23That's okay, you can do that.
19:25You cannot.
19:25Well, if the ref don't catch you, you can.
19:28Over this way, ref.
19:29Come on, turn around.
19:30Don't you know how to cheat, McMahon?
19:33Would you please stop it?
19:33Doink, the crown of the Boston Trap.
19:37Imagine the pain in this lower back area of Randy Savage.
19:42What's Randy Savage gonna do to counter this move?
19:44Come on, ref.
19:45Look, he's got his hand on the rope.
19:46You're caught, you're caught.
19:48And look at this, Doink capitalizing now on the weakened back of
19:53the Macho Man, Randy Savage.
19:56He knows what he's doing, and now he's going with the leg.
20:00No.
20:01Doink looking right at you, having a big laugh, are you, you two, huh?
20:06You know, as I look around here, I don't see any other Doinks.
20:09Look at this, making fun of Randy Savage, Doink the clown.
20:13How'd he break you up?
20:16Yeah, he's a real riot, yeah.
20:19Randy Savage now, suffering the consequences of this evil clown's tactics,
20:24continuing to work on the left leg.
20:26And Randy Savage retaliating.
20:28Never count the Macho Man out.
20:31Randy Savage now, across that top rope.
20:34My.
20:34Doink hammering away with the forearm.
20:36And that was a desperation move by Savage.
20:39And another one.
20:39He's fighting for his life in there, and he knows it.
20:42Savage now, hooks into the ropes, heading up, and no.
20:45Telegraphed for number one, a part of Doink, and Randy Savage now with momentum.
20:49Savage with Doink.
20:50Reversal.
20:51Macho Man moving out of the way.
20:53Nice maneuver.
20:54Randy Savage with the momentum.
20:58Randy Savage drives a knee, Doink flying to the outside.
21:03Wait a minute, Macho Man Randy Savage coming outside as well.
21:05I'm getting out of here.
21:06Savage and Doink right out here in front of us.
21:09No, look, watch this.
21:10To the post, my goodness.
21:14We're back, we apologize for
21:16having to take that commercial break during the action on the outside.
21:18They're back in right now.
21:20And the Macho Man Randy Savage trying to figure out the tactics of Doink.
21:25Macho Man reversing his backbreaker now.
21:26What a grueling matchup this is.
21:28Randy Savage and Doink going at it tooth and nail.
21:31Randy Savage unquestionably a future WWF Hall of Famer.
21:36Speaking about Hall of Famers,
21:37you know, I just received a phone call this morning from George Steinbrenner.
21:40He says, Reggie Jackson was inducted into the Hall of Fame yesterday,
21:43you know, Mr. October.
21:44He says, could I have Reggie on All-American this Sunday with you and
21:47Gene Okerlund at noon?
21:48I said, no, I'm sorry, George, but I'm gonna be having Shawn Michaels on as my
21:52special guest, Intercontinental Champion.
21:54So Mr. October's gonna have to wait another year.
21:56You know something?
21:57What?
21:58You stutter when you lie.
21:59I'm not, ooh.
22:00Right. I wouldn't lie.
22:01George Steinbrenner calling you.
22:03I'll smell the time.
22:03Asking for Reggie Jackson to be on All-American next Sunday.
22:06Give me a break.
22:07Mr. October, there's Mr. August right there, Doink the Clown.
22:10Doink the Clown all over the Macho Man Randy Savage.
22:12A grueling, grueling matchup.
22:14A high stakes matchup between Doink and the Macho Man Randy Savage.
22:19Boy, is there ever a lot at stake here.
22:21The winner of this match gets full custody of Pat Pettengill on Saturday
22:24Morning Mania.
22:25Bobby Hannon.
22:26A very rare, rare television appearance in the square circle of the Macho Man,
22:33Randy Savage.
22:33He was called out by Doink the Clown last week.
22:36There were three Doinks calling him out.
22:38Randy Savage, to his credit, answered that call, and we've got the match.
22:42Wait, whoa.
22:43A suplex.
22:44Well, as I look around, and I look under the ring, I look in the dressing room
22:47area, one.
22:48Not easy.
22:49You're not gonna be able to pin the Macho Man that way.
22:52And I looked around- You have to drop an anvil on him.
22:54Well, you bet.
22:55But I did all my investigation.
22:56I found no sign of another Doink on the premises.
23:00Okay, great.
23:01And a two in an easy kick out again by Randy Savage.
23:05Now, if you're Doink the Clown, why wouldn't you hook the leg?
23:08Why wouldn't you try and get every bit of leverage you possibly could with
23:11a Macho Man Randy Savage?
23:12You know he's gonna, wait a minute, here we go, abdominal stretch as him.
23:16And I don't believe that's gonna put him away either.
23:18It may weaken him a bit, but it won't put the Macho Man away.
23:21You never know, though.
23:22He's been working on that back for quite some time.
23:24Good point, good point.
23:25And he's got him in abdominal stretch, but he should be hooking his leg,
23:28with his own leg, wrapping his leg around there.
23:30That's, then you lean down on his hip, hook the tights, and pull up.
23:34And Randy Savage reversing things on Doink the Clown, but
23:37nonetheless paying the toll.
23:39He's still got some left in him, don't he?
23:42Randy Savage doesn't know where he is, except he knows he's in a fight.
23:45That's for sure.
23:46You're on Raw, Savage.
23:48You're on Monday Night Raw.
23:50A hard left hand, right into the face, and another one.
23:53Doink the Clown hammering away on the Macho Man Randy Savage.
23:56Doink snaps him over.
23:59What is Doink up to?
24:00Doink with all these punishing tight holds, that's what he enjoys the most.
24:03Be able to put these near submission holds, wear an opponent down,
24:07make him suffer, make him squeal, but you hear nothing from the Macho Man.
24:10Well, think about it, he's worked on his back, he's worked on his leg,
24:13he's worked on his neck.
24:15He's gonna start squealing eventually, McMahon, real loud.
24:17Randy Savage escapes, and no, Doink the Clown with a slam.
24:22Doink reversing, Doink to the outside now.
24:24I know what he's gonna do.
24:25What? He's gonna climb to that third floor, and
24:27he's gonna come off with that cannonball.
24:30Doink from the top, raw point of pro Macho Man, and Doink leaps down.
24:34Dead message.
24:36Randy Savage playing possum on the deck.
24:39Randy Savage now.
24:40With the momentum that had to take a great deal out of Doink.
24:44This could be the turning point right here.
24:46Turning point again was right.
24:47Doink, over the top rope, Randy Savage, to the outside.
24:52You never know what Doink is going to do.
24:54It's unbelievable.
24:55It's, yes.
24:58You must be lying again, you're stunning.
25:00And again, a left hand, and Randy Savage down.
25:04Wait a minute, Randy Savage is going underneath the ring, what's he doing?
25:07I know what he's gonna do, he's gonna crawl to the other side and
25:09try to surprise Doink.
25:10Forget it, come up with something new, Savage.
25:12I've never seen this before, Randy Savage using tactics we've seen.
25:15There he comes again, with his hat.
25:16What's this, it's a midget, it's not Savage, it's a midget.
25:20Look at this, it's a little Macho Man.
25:23I can't believe my eyes.
25:25This capacity crowd can't believe what's going on.
25:27What is he, what are you trying to pull?
25:30Macho Man Randy Savage said he had a little surprise.
25:33Look, it looks just like him.
25:35But where's Savage?
25:36Where is Savage right now?
25:38Yeah.
25:38Where he is?
25:39Yeah, wait a minute.
25:41Referee, stop this right now, stop this match.
25:43What a surprise.
25:45Wait a minute.
25:45Get him, Doink.
25:46Look, coming after the little macho midget.
25:48He's going after him, I can't believe it.
25:49Randy Savage comes up above the knee to the ring.
25:51This isn't fair.
25:53Randy Savage with Doink now.
25:54Randy Savage slapping Doink to the outside.
25:57Randy Savage with Doink the clown.
25:59Now who's laughing?
26:00Bobby Heyman.
26:01Randy Savage with his own surprise.
26:03He said he was gonna have a little surprise, and he has.
26:06And there he is under the apron of the ring.
26:07He shouldn't even be out here.
26:08The referee should stop that match right now.
26:10It's 12 by 7.
26:12Doink mesmerized the cover on Doink.
26:14He gets it, he gets it.
26:15Yes, it's all his fault.
26:17Who is that?
26:18Macho Man Randy Savage.
26:21Who is that?
26:23What a victory over Doink the Clown.
26:25Look at this.
26:27I've heard of guys losing 10, 15 pounds during an match.
26:30That's ridiculous.
26:31It's plain and simple.
26:33Doink has been outdoinked by the Macho Man Randy Savage.
26:39No, this can't go.
26:41They can't let this happen.
26:42Wait a minute, he's biting him on the keister.
26:44He just bit him on the keister.
26:47Doink, he ran into Randy Savage.
26:49Randy Savage with Doink the Clown bouncing to the outside.
26:52Referee's coming over and keeping Doink outside the ring.
26:56Randy Savage gonna leap to the top rope.
26:58He's gonna come down.
26:58No, he got him down.
27:01Doink the Clown being ushered back to the dressing room with a defeat under his belt
27:05and inside the ring.
27:07This is the Macho Man Randy Savage.
27:09Take a look at this.
27:11My goodness, talk about double vision.
27:14That's what Doink was famous for.
27:16And now, the Macho Man Randy Savage steals the thunder from Doink the Clown.
27:23Where'd he get that little guy?
27:24At a discount store?
27:25You pay half price for him?
27:27All I know is the Macho Man and the Macho Vision.
27:32Take a look at this.
27:33What a surprise.
27:35Oh, yeah.
27:36Doink can't believe his eyes.
27:40Macho Man Randy Savage outdoinked the size of Doink.
27:44Right here on Monday Night Raw.
27:45A first ever on Monday Night Raw.
27:49Macho Man Randy Savage.
27:51Oh, yeah.
27:55Promotional consideration paid for by the following.
28:06Ikepro, you've got to want it.
28:11Chips.
28:14Gotta have beef, gotta have spice.
28:16Need a little excitement?
28:18Snap into a Slim Jim.
28:19Oh, yeah.
28:22Well, folks, it just goes to prove that anything can happen here on Monday Night Raw.
28:26And anything usually does happen in the World Wrestling Federation.
28:30The Macho Man teaching Doink, or should I say Doinks, a lesson in one-upsmanship.
28:36This Summer Slam Report brought to you by Chevrolet.
28:40The Macho Man.
28:41The Macho Man.
28:42The Macho Man.
28:43The Macho Man.
28:44The Macho Man.
28:45The Macho Man.
28:46The Macho Man.
28:47The Macho Man.
28:48The Macho Man.
28:49The Macho Man.
28:51The heartbeat of America.
28:53And red-hot Chevy trucks like this one.
28:56Tough like a rock.
28:58Ladies and gentlemen, four weeks from tonight.
29:01Monday, August 30th at 8 o'clock Eastern.
29:04From suburban Detroit in the Palace of Auburn Hills, it's Summer Slam.
29:09See it exclusively on pay-per-view cable TV.
29:13World Wrestling Federation champion Yokozuna, managed by Mr. Fuji.
29:17Defending against challenger Lex Luger.
29:20Luger, by the way, will be wearing a pad over his elbow and forearm.
29:24And next week, right here, you'll see the official contract signing
29:29between Yokozuna and Lex Luger on Monday Night Raw.
29:34Royalty is on the line when the King of the Ring,
29:37Bret the Hitman Hart, battles the self-proclaimed King Jerry Lawler.
29:41Last week, I'm sure you recall Lawler verbally terrorizing
29:45Stu and Helen Hart, those are Bret's parents,
29:48in an incident that the Hitman will never forget.
29:51And you can bet that Bret's family is going to be on hand
29:54to support him in the Motor City at Summer Slam.
29:57If Lawler doesn't give a good account of himself,
30:00instead of sitting on the throne,
30:02I've got to believe he's going to be cleaning them out.
30:05Now, just announced this past weekend,
30:07with his bodyguard Diesel in his corner,
30:10Intercontinental Champion Shawn Michaels
30:13will be defending that prestigious title against Mr. Perfect.
30:17Perfect himself, a two-time former Intercontinental Champion.
30:22It's a rest in peace match for the Undertaker
30:25and the 8-foot-tall Giant Gonzalez.
30:28Harvey Whippleman still doesn't know for sure
30:31what kind of a match he's gotten the Giant into.
30:34Only four weeks from tonight, folks,
30:36it's Summer Slam, exclusively on Pay-Per-View Cable TV.
30:41And right now, let's get back to Raw and Vince McMahon.
30:45Thanks, Gene.
30:46This past weekend on Wrestling Challenge,
30:48you saw Ted DiBiase defeated by the 1-2-3 Kid.
30:51We'll be back with the Million Dollar Man on the telephone.
30:54Stay with us.
30:58Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
31:00More Monday Night Raw.
31:01What action we have here this week.
31:03Talk about action.
31:04That would take us, by the way,
31:06to Wrestling Challenge this past weekend,
31:08which we're going to talk about.
31:09The matchup between Ted DiBiase and the 1-2-3 Kid.
31:12On the line right now, I believe.
31:13Ted DiBiase, are you there?
31:14I'm here.
31:15Well, Ted DiBiase, you can't be too pleased
31:17as to the outcome of the matchup
31:19with you and the 1-2-3 Kid this past weekend.
31:21Pleased? Upset?
31:22Upset, McMahon, is not even the word
31:24to describe how I'm feeling right now.
31:26And it's not that snot nose 1-2-3 Kid
31:28I was wiping the mat with him.
31:31It's that no-good, stinking Razor Ramon
31:33coming out there and sticking his nose in my business.
31:36He will pay for that, McMahon.
31:37I guarantee you he'll pay for that.
31:39I will stay with us if you would,
31:40because we're going to take you back right now
31:42to footage from this past weekend.
31:43What? What? You're going to do what?
31:45We're going to show the footage.
31:46No, I won't show that.
31:47No, no, McMahon, you can't show that footage.
31:49No, no, I'm telling you, let's roll the footage.
31:51No, no, no, don't.
31:52He doesn't want you to roll it.
31:53If you show that footage, McMahon, I'm hanging up.
31:55Teddy, don't hang up.
31:56This is Bobby.
31:57Don't hang up, Teddy.
31:58All right, let's take you back to this past weekend.
32:00It's wrestling challenge.
32:01Here we go, ladies and gentlemen.
32:021-2-3 Kid versus Ted DiBiase.
32:05Hello.
32:06Sometimes you can feel a man grab you.
32:08You can just tell by moving your arm or your leg
32:10that his strength isn't there anymore.
32:12Hey, wait a minute.
32:13Look who's coming down the aisle.
32:15Razor Ramon.
32:16Razor Ramon making his way to the ring.
32:19Man, this could be a volatile situation.
32:22This could be the end of the 1-2-3 Kid.
32:26Oh, Mommy, Daddy, please come help me.
32:28They're going to tear me apart.
32:30Oh, please stop that.
32:32It could be the end of the Million Dollar Man.
32:37And Razor Ramon gets his hands on DiBiase.
32:40Well, see, Razor being beaten twice by the Kid
32:43gives us all a black eye.
32:46What do you mean, gives us all a black eye?
32:49Well, Razor is a friend of ours.
32:51Then he lets his Kid beat him.
32:53I mean, he makes us all look bad.
32:55Well, DiBiase has dominated the 1-2-3 Kid.
33:02And DiBiase's really rubbing it in.
33:05And the Kid's got to show him.
33:06He's on top.
33:08He got it.
33:09He got it.
33:10Oh, my God, no.
33:11The 1-2-3 Kid has beat DiBiase.
33:141, 2, 3.
33:16I can't believe this.
33:18The 1-2-3 Kid has beat DiBiase.
33:21And now Razor Ramon is laughing at the Million Dollar Man.
33:26What a victory for the 1-2-3 Kid.
33:29Razor Ramon at ringside adding insult to injury
33:32to the SummerSlam matchup.
33:34I'll tell you what.
33:35This is going to be something extraordinary.
33:37Ted DiBiase very, very upset.
33:39Well, you've made an enemy now out of Ted DiBiase,
33:41the Million Dollar Man.
33:42All right.
33:43And Money, Inc.
33:44What you do, McMahon, is your business.
33:46But when you get into the ring-
33:48Speaking of business, what's this man doing here?
33:50Wait a minute.
33:51He has no business here.
33:52Do you know?
33:54Do you know who that is?
33:56Do you have any idea?
33:57Do you have any idea who that is?
33:59Yeah.
34:00Jimmy.
34:01Jimmy.
34:02Jim Cornette.
34:03Wait a minute.
34:04Don't get carried away.
34:06I've never seen Bobby Heenan so delighted.
34:09What is this?
34:12Oh, look at this.
34:15A reunion.
34:16Bobby Heenan and Jim Cornette from Smoky Mountain Wrestling.
34:22Ladies and gentlemen, I don't believe this.
34:26I do not believe this.
34:28Do you know who this is?
34:30Do you have any idea who this man is?
34:34Now quit it.
34:35No.
34:36I'm going to talk right now.
34:38You listen.
34:39Relax.
34:40I'm going to talk for you.
34:42This, ladies and gentlemen, this is the greatest manager in the history of the sport of wrestling.
34:51Yes.
34:52I couldn't even surpass what this man has done.
34:57Jim Cornette, what are you doing here in the WWF?
35:02First of all, Bobby, I want to say something.
35:04I'm the greatest manager in wrestling only because that you're no longer managing.
35:09I've got to say.
35:10And by the way, my mother really liked that bouquet of roses you said.
35:13But you know something?
35:14Everybody's wondering.
35:16Jim Cornette.
35:17I know all the people out there.
35:18They've got their false teeth laying on the floor, man.
35:21And they've got to have their wife slap them, bring them back around, sit them up on the couch.
35:25Jim Cornette's on the WWF, man.
35:28Tell me, Jim, what is going on with Smoky Mountain Wrestling?
35:32Let me just explain for all you genetic defects out here living downstream of the nuclear plant.
35:37Jim Cornette has done everything in his career.
35:41I've done everything in professional wrestling.
35:43I've traveled coast to coast, border to border.
35:45I've managed the greatest tag teams in wrestling.
35:47The one thing that I haven't done is appeared in the World Wrestling Federation.
35:52I'm here to do that now because I finally have my knockout blow.
35:56A year and a half ago, I settled in the Great Smoky Mountains down there in Knoxville, Tennessee.
36:01And I became involved with the hottest wrestling promotion in the South, Smoky Mountain Wrestling.
36:06And I formed, I handpicked a tag team guaranteed to be the piece de resistance, the cream of the crop,
36:13the greatest combination that I have ever managed.
36:16None other than the Heavenly Bodies, the Doctor of Desire, Tom Prichard, and the Gigolo, Jimmy Del Rey.
36:22And they are, without a doubt, the object of every American woman's desire.
36:27Talk about surprises.
36:29You never cease to surprise me, Jim.
36:32That's exactly right.
36:33And I'm full of surprises because I got another one.
36:36What?
36:37I'm here in the WWF for one reason.
36:40Because, like I said, I managed the greatest tag team in wrestling, the Heavenly Bodies.
36:44They have dominated Smoky Mountain Wrestling for a year and a half.
36:48And now, I hear you got some big fish up here.
36:51A couple guys called Rick and Scott Steiner.
36:54That every, yeah.
36:56Oh, boy.
36:58Going in, wasting no time, going to the top.
37:00Well, they're the WWF Tag Team Champions.
37:02Yeah, that's exactly right.
37:03They're the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions.
37:06But they're not the best tag team in the world.
37:09The Heavenly Bodies are.
37:11So, what I'm saying, Rick and Scott Steiner, now I'm ready for the knockout blow.
37:16The only step I've never taken.
37:18You got a challenge on your table, Steiner Brothers.
37:21Either you can get in a ring with the Heavenly Bodies, defend those belts, get beat, of course.
37:27But at least these people will know that you had some guts.
37:30And, hey, it's no disgrace getting beat by the best.
37:33Or you can just overlook my challenge.
37:36And then every single one of these people will know that you're yellow, stinking, dog-curve cowards.
37:41And I know you are.
37:43Ladies and gentlemen, this man is going to set the World Wrestling Federation on fire.
37:49And, Jimmy, you're the man that can do it.
37:52You're here. You're really here.
37:55Well, if Jim Cornette is looking for the Steiner Brothers, he won't have far to run.
38:00The Steiner Brothers always answer the call.
38:02They always answer the challenge.
38:04They won't back down from this one, I'm sure.
38:07Jim Cornette and Bobby Heenan together.
38:10My, oh, my, what's next on Monday Night Raw?
38:12Mr. Perfect, that's who's next.
38:18Bobby Heenan.
38:21What's next for you, Bobby?
38:24What?
38:25What kind of a job this guy does?
38:28I got a box here, Bobby.
38:30This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my life.
38:33Bobby Heenan, what is the meaning of this?
38:35What is the meaning of this?
38:36This is Jim Cornette.
38:38This is the most wonderful call.
38:41I know it's Jim Cornette.
38:42I heard your interview a few minutes ago.
38:44Jim Cornette, what are you doing here, buddy?
38:47Look, first of all, what are you doing here?
38:50I got no volume here.
38:52I got no volume.
38:53Turn this stuff up.
38:54There we go.
38:55Boy, he didn't even prepare for my arrival.
38:57Bobby, thank you for the invitation.
38:59My pleasure, friend.
39:02A look at Memphis County's, a look at one of the greatest
39:05in the World Wrestling Federation today,
39:07Mr. Perfect on his way to SummerSlam.
39:10On his way for the Date With Destiny
39:13to lock up with the reigning Intercontinental Champion
39:16Shawn Michaels.
39:17Forget about the Date With Destiny.
39:18You got a date with her?
39:20I know her sister.
39:22You do?
39:23Yeah, you see, the other day we-
39:24Wait a minute, please.
39:25Let's stay with the action here.
39:27Oh, geez.
39:28I'll tell you later, Jim.
39:29Okay, Bobby.
39:30I must say, Mr. Cornette,
39:31very boastful comments from you.
39:33I mean, you have your own problems
39:34in Smoky Mountain Wrestling.
39:36I understand the Armstrong Brothers,
39:37the Rock and Roll Express,
39:39they're all lining up to take on the Heavenly Bodies.
39:41How dare you come to the WWF
39:43and challenge the Steiners?
39:45They're all lining up to take on the Heavenly Bodies
39:47instead of the other way around.
39:48We don't line up to take on anybody.
39:50We're the best, and that's why we do it.
39:52We challenge the Steiners
39:53because we know we can take them,
39:55and that's that.
39:58Mr. Perfect standing side, headlocked,
39:59trying to get out now.
40:01You know, his opponent
40:02is constantly making fun of Mr. Perfect.
40:04He's got the blonde hair.
40:05He's got the same Mr. Perfect suit.
40:07He even spits some gum out of his mouth.
40:09Uh-huh, that's ready to resemble its ends.
40:10Look at the athleticism of Mr. Perfect.
40:12Dropkick, actually not.
40:13Hey, what's the-
40:14Look out.
40:15Guy almost fell on me, Bobby.
40:16I thought I was gonna get
40:17tweeted right away.
40:18I'll get some security.
40:19Maybe they don't know who you are
40:20here right yet.
40:21He's gonna be spitting more than gum
40:22out at SummerSlam.
40:23He's gonna be spitting teeth
40:24out of his mouth, Mr. Perfect,
40:25which Shawn Michaels gets ahold of him.
40:27Please.
40:28You talk about the Armstrongs
40:29and the Rock and Roll Express
40:30and Smoky Mountain Wrestling.
40:31You talk about the Heavenly Bodies.
40:32They're gonna be here real soon.
40:34I'm gonna show the Steiners
40:35that their fate awaits them
40:37in the form of Tom Prichard
40:38and Jimmy Del Rey.
40:40There's no question
40:41some of the hottest wrestling
40:42all across America
40:43is occurring in Smoky Mountains.
40:44I would suggest to you, Mr. Cornette,
40:45that it's so hot
40:46that that's why you're here.
40:47You're getting out of Dodge.
40:48Isn't that true?
40:49You're leaving the Smoky Mountain area.
40:51Don't have a hemorrhage,
40:52and I know you will.
40:53I'll tell you why I'm hot,
40:54because they ain't got
40:55no air conditioning up here
40:56in this place.
40:57That's why I'm hot.
40:58What's the deal with your hair,
40:59by the way, McMahon, huh?
41:00I didn't know Earl Shive
41:01was doing hair these days.
41:03Hey, and he's also the president.
41:05Yeah.
41:06Hey, you know, I'll tell you what, though.
41:07I really kind of like
41:08what your stylist does with it.
41:09Maybe you ought to be present
41:10sometime when she does it.
41:12Ha-ha!
41:13You never stop.
41:14You're the greatest.
41:15You don't know what this is like.
41:16This is like a present, McMahon,
41:18to see a good old friend of mine.
41:20Oh.
41:21You know, me and Bobby,
41:22we've been on a lot of cons.
41:23I mean, a lot of projects together.
41:25Many times.
41:26We've helped a lot of people's careers.
41:27That's exactly right.
41:28Look at this.
41:29What's he doing?
41:30He's taking off the Mr. Perfect suit.
41:31He certainly is.
41:32Hey, wait a minute.
41:33They don't mean that kind of Raw.
41:35You don't know here, though, Jim.
41:36It could get that way.
41:37This is Raw.
41:38This is Monday Night Raw.
41:39Mr. Perfect.
41:41That's five dominating a matchup,
41:43much like Jim Cornette
41:44has been dominating the conversation.
41:46And he's gonna dominate
41:47the World Wrestling Federation.
41:48I know his credentials.
41:49I don't know.
41:50I don't know whether the Steiners
41:51will accept my challenge
41:52to meet the Heavenly Bodies
41:53for that WWE title.
41:54That's it.
41:55That's Raw.
