00:00Tonight, will a lifetime of hard work and dedication pay off for
00:05Bret the Hitman Hart?
00:07Or will Made in the USA Lex Luger get first shot at the reigning WWF Champion?
00:14After arguably the closest result in WWF history,
00:17the fate of the co-winners of the WWF Royal Rumble will be decided by
00:23the toss of a coin.
00:24A simple heads or tails will determine who these two superstars
00:30their paths to championship gold tonight on Monday Night Raw.
00:35Welcome to
00:39Bushkill, Pennsylvania.
00:46Welcome to
00:52Bushkill,
00:58Pennsylvania.
01:05Welcome to the Fernwood Resort, nestled in a polka dot.
01:10And welcome everyone to Monday Night Raw.
01:17I'm Buster McMahon, along with Erwin R.
01:20Shyster, and I'm gonna say, Mr. Shyster, tonight a mere flip of the coin will
01:26determine who will face Yokozuna at WrestleMania.
01:29And we'll have that flip of the coin right here tonight.
01:33Well, that's real nice, McMahon.
01:35You just explained to all the tax cheats out there what the winner gets.
01:40But what you failed to do is explain what the loser gets.
01:44Well, I was about to, but why don't you explain it?
01:47I will.
01:47I'll do that right now.
01:49What the loser gets is two extra large Buffalo Bills t-shirts at my expense,
01:55because it is a tax deduction.
01:58Let's get serious now.
01:59This is for all the gold.
02:01The man who wins the coin toss could wind up being the champion.
02:04It's for the gold.
02:05Well, first of all, McMahon, speaking of all the gold, Mr. and
02:10Mrs. Slipknot just won $10 million.
02:13And I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate them.
02:18Mr. and Mrs. Slipknot.
02:20You mean the Sweepstakes winners?
02:21Yes, they just won the Publisher's Clearing House Sweepstakes.
02:25But listen here, Mr. and Mrs. Slipknot, if you get a knock on your door tomorrow,
02:30you better be sure it's gonna be IRS, and you're gonna pay your fair share.
02:34Because I'm gonna make personally sure that you pay all the back taxes
02:39that you've been ripping the government off of.
02:43That is a true bureaucrat.
02:45Here we go, an action.
02:46This contest is scheduled for one fall.
02:52Coming down on the aisle from Columbus, Georgia,
02:59Marty Dinetti.
03:03Marty Dinetti.
03:04Coming into ringside by the one, two, three kids.
03:11Marty Dinetti, ladies and gentlemen, who is taking the place of the one, two,
03:15three kids.
03:16Many of you know it was the kid who recently was injured.
03:20Come on over.
03:23Unfortunately, could not make it to the Royal Rumble.
03:25He had hoped he would return here.
03:28The face, Johnny Polo.
03:30Hold a minute, man, what is this?
03:32The drum and bugle corps from the Military Academy coming down here.
03:36You got this fat-nosed brat coming down here looking.
03:39What is he doing here in the first place?
03:41Thanks for joining us, kid.
03:42How's the injury coming along?
03:44It's coming along real good, Vince.
03:46I'm glad to be here.
03:47It's too bad I can't be in the ring versus Johnny Polo, but
03:50Marty's gonna take care of the situation right now.
03:53What a matchup.
03:54This is gonna be right here on Monday night.
03:56He's gotta be the luckiest guy in the world.
03:58He's not paying any taxes.
04:00He's a tax cheat and he gets to sit on worldwide television out here with
04:04the likes of IRS.
04:06And here we go, ladies and gentlemen.
04:07Hey, kid, you got a social security card?
04:10Let me see it right now.
04:11Let me see your driver's license.
04:12Hey, let's get to what's going on in the ring, IRS.
04:16And what a matchup this is gonna be, ladies and gentlemen.
04:20Marty Jannetty substituting for the one, two, three kid against Johnny Polo.
04:26Uh-oh, what just happened?
04:27We're so- Now, wait a minute.
04:32Just be quiet, please.
04:34Keep the noise to a minimum.
04:36These people are rude.
04:39Now, does anyone in TV land actually believe that the snot-nosed kid is hurt?
04:45Did he hurt his knee?
04:46He's a fraidy cat wussy boy, and he's scared to step in the ring with Johnny Polo.
04:52What do you have to say now, kid?
04:55I'll tell you what, I'd like to be in there more than anybody in the entire world,
04:59but I can't.
04:59And he wants to step in the ring with the superstar, Johnny Polo.
05:03However- Hey, kid, what do you mean you can't or you won't?
05:07I can't, I wanna be in there so bad I can taste it.
05:09Now, you stink.
05:12Really?
05:12This, ladies and gentlemen, a rematch.
05:15And what a match it was before.
05:18Marty Jannetty looking forward to this opportunity.
05:22What's this, Jannetty has a few words to say as well?
05:25Look at that, yeah, look at that, McMahon.
05:27Jannetty, he just used the microphone and hit him in the chops.
05:31He should be disqualified.
05:32Get him, Marty.
05:33Wait a minute, the microphone cord being wrapped around the ankles of Marty Jannetty.
05:37What is this, a rodeo?
05:39Is this a rodeo or is this WWF?
05:41That's illegal, McMahon.
05:42He should be disqualified right now.
05:44And Johnny Polo is all tied up.
05:48Look at this.
05:48Whoa, down to the canvas.
05:53You find that real funny, McMahon.
05:55But if I was doing that, you would make it a point to Jack Tunny to have me.
06:00Fine, I know that.
06:01And- It appears as though, wait just a moment.
06:06That was a good technical move.
06:09Technical move?
06:10Yes.
06:10Johnny Polo now.
06:12Look at this.
06:14And again, this is a first for Monday Night Raw.
06:16We've never seen a microphone cord being used in offensive capacity.
06:20To the outside.
06:21There's another cheap shot by Jannetty.
06:25Obviously a fan favorite.
06:30Johnny Polo.
06:33And Marty Jannetty and the one, two, three kid looking on.
06:41By the way.
06:47You know something, McMahon?
06:49I see why Shawn Michaels went on his own and left the likes of Jannetty.
06:58Look at this.
07:03Jannetty's gotta use everything in his power illegally to win this match.
07:08And coming back to the ring.
07:11Back in the ring now.
07:13Johnny Polo begging off.
07:14Marty Jannetty right on top of him.
07:17And taking his time.
07:19That's Johnny Polo for you.
07:20Showing his true colors in there right now.
07:23Backing off.
07:25Look at that maneuver.
07:26No.
07:26Nice maneuver by Marty Jannetty.
07:28Staying on his feet.
07:29Jannetty coming up on the top rope here.
07:32Money, money, pound.
07:33One, two, and.
07:35A kick out by Polo.
07:38You can say what you want, McMahon.
07:41You just watch Johnny Polo.
07:42Look at this.
07:43He's very smart out there.
07:44Yeah.
07:45He's smart all right.
07:49From behind and to the outside, Marty Jannetty.
07:55Jannetty caught one in the chops a little bit earlier on.
08:01That's what I'm talking about.
08:02Polo's a little smart.
08:03We'll be back, ladies and gentlemen.
08:05More action here on Monday Night Raw, stay with us.
08:09We're back, ladies and gentlemen.
08:10We are live from the Fernwood Resort in Bushkill, Pennsylvania.
08:14And Johnny Polo has things pretty much well under control.
08:18Johnny Polo's appallingly here against Marty Jannetty.
08:20What advice, kid, would you give Jannetty?
08:23I think Marty should just hang in there.
08:24I know he's one of the toughest guys around.
08:27And Johnny Polo, he's not a full-time wrestler.
08:30He can't, I don't think he can go.
08:31I just don't think Johnny Polo can go.
08:34I've got some advice for you, one, two, three, kid.
08:36You should just sit down and keep your mouth shut and let them wrestle.
08:39Wait a minute, look at this.
08:41And Johnny Polo trying to get underneath Marty Jannetty.
08:45Did a pretty sloppy job of it, nonetheless effective.
08:48To the outside, Marty, look out, here comes Polo.
08:50Polo's doing a good job now, McMahon.
08:52He's got Jannetty on the ropes, and he's keeping the pressure on.
08:55It's gonna be a victory for Polo, I can tell.
08:58And I must say, Johnny Polo showing no signs of ring rust, but a hard right.
09:02Oh, look at this, seesaw battle back and forth.
09:06And actually, this may work to Polo's advantage that he doesn't wrestle on
09:10a full-time basis.
09:11Obviously, not injured at all.
09:13Obviously, has not undergone the ring or so.
09:16My goodness, previous matches and a big smile on Johnny Polo's face.
09:20Well, I'll say one thing for Polo, he might not wrestle every night, but
09:23that guy is in good condition.
09:25And Marty Jannetty's got his hands full, obviously.
09:29And a cover here, count of two, not hooking the leg.
09:31Come on, Mr. Polo, you should know better than that.
09:33He's never gonna get Marty without hooking the leg.
09:35I don't think he'll get Marty anyhow.
09:37Is that right, one, two, three, kid?
09:39You say that he should hook the leg, right?
09:42Later on this weekend, this coming weekend, ladies and gentlemen,
09:44on WWF Superstars, Johnny Polo will be in his normal capacity.
09:49That is managing the tag team champions of the WWF, the Quebecers.
09:53And it'll be the Quebecers in a non-title matchup against the Steiners.
09:58That heads your way this coming weekend on WWF Superstars.
10:03That's quite a team, isn't it, McMahon, the Quebecers?
10:06They're doing a very good winning tour.
10:09And Marty Jannetty has Polo's out, but Jannetty's hurt.
10:13Jannetty favoring the refs over Polo now, right back at him.
10:17And both men down to the canvas, Polo to the outside.
10:20What a collision that was.
10:24Get up, Polo.
10:25Come on, Marty, get up.
10:26I think-
10:29Marty Jannetty and Johnny Polo, both men suffering the effects of that collision.
10:34So I'm gonna assume he has a gut right now.
10:38And obviously, Polo's getting up first.
10:41Anxious moments, undoubtedly, in the dressing room for
10:44Lex Luger and Bret Hart.
10:45More on that later on.
10:46There's a cover, one, two.
10:47No.
10:48Again, Polo not hooking the leg.
10:50Something that he preaches to his Quebecers are now resorting to aggressive
10:53tactics.
10:54Come on, ref.
10:55Come on, ref, break the hold.
11:01Come on.
11:02As you can see, Johnny Polo is applying pressure right now, McMahon.
11:05You call that pressure, do you?
11:06I asked Jannetty if it's pressure or not.
11:08Jannetty coming off the rope now, back by-
11:10No, no, try to get him down.
11:12He's got his tights.
11:13He's got a hold of his pants right there, McMahon.
11:16Jannetty is-
11:17Two handfuls.
11:17Holds it down, two and-
11:19Polo kicking out and with authority right in the forehead.
11:23Look at this, a cover, two and no, one, two.
11:29For sure, I thought Marty Jannetty had Polo.
11:31Well, as you can see, that worked against him that time because he didn't hook the
11:34We made reference to the coin toss earlier on.
11:37The loser of the coin toss, by the way, does not receive, to my knowledge,
11:42the Buffalo Bills t-shirts, unless you want to present them personally.
11:47Again, many of you tuned in earlier this weekend and heard Jack Tunney state that,
11:51and let me try and set this up for you, which we will later on prior to the coin
11:55toss, if Lex Luger wins the coin toss, he faces Yoko Ono.
11:59Which means the loser of the coin toss,
12:01Bret Hart, would have to face his brother, Owen, and
12:04then face the winner of the Lex Luger, Yokozuna matchup at WrestleMania.
12:08However, if it's the other way around, it's Bret Hart facing Yokozuna.
12:12Lex must face suitable competition, which in this case would be Crush, and
12:16then Lex would face the winner of the Bret Hart, Yokozuna matchup at WrestleMania.
12:20Look at this, yeah.
12:22Marty Jannetty, Crush, and
12:24time that one perfectly.
12:32Yeah, he does that real well, McMahon, play possum.
12:36And who would you like to see face Yokozuna at WrestleMania?
12:41Many of you had an opportunity when you dialed the Royal Rumble hotline,
12:4557% of you felt as though the Hitman Bret Hart won that controversial
12:50ending to the Royal Rumble matchup, and thought that Bret should go on.
12:54Look at this, 43% thought that Luger won, and
12:57that Luger should go on to WrestleMania.
13:01You know something, McMahon?
13:02It looked like to me that they were both losers in that.
13:05No, I would say they were both winners, unquestionably.
13:08We saw no less than four replays, which were totally inconclusive.
13:12My.
13:14And now, look at this, Marty Jannetty, quick to momentum.
13:17You know something, McMahon?
13:21It doesn't really matter, because neither Luger or
13:24Bret Hart are gonna be able to beat Yokozuna.
13:26Now, tell me he doesn't have a handful of hair right there, McMahon.
13:33He doesn't, look, he doesn't.
13:34He's not holding on to any hair at all.
13:36He just yanked half of it out, that's why.
13:43Marty Jannetty in control with Johnny Pullo.
13:46What a match-up this has been thus far, and I must say, hats off to Johnny Pullo.
13:51But this is a much better match-up than their initial event.
13:55Uh-oh, look at that.
13:56All in here, punching.
13:58Jannetty's broken every rule in the World Wrestling Federation rulebook.
14:01And Pullo has been, my, so scientific.
14:05Johnny Pullo will probably not be riding any of his ponies.
14:12Right after that, back to his feet now, and backing off a bit.
14:19Marty Jannetty brings him out.
14:22And Marty Jannetty in control.
14:25Hey, kid, is it past your bedtime yet?
14:28Not quite.
14:29To the buckle, here, look at that, my goodness.
14:33Maybe we can send out for some milk and cookies for you.
14:37Marty Jannetty was gonna polish off Pullo, and
14:40he really went into that corner with authority.
14:42Unfortunately, the shoulder hitting the ring post.
14:44Now, Johnny Pullo back in control, see-saw match-up back and forth.
14:49I gotta take back what I said earlier.
14:51This Johnny Pullo, he's really putting it to Marty.
14:53I gotta admit it.
14:55It's about time he realized it.
14:57And down to the canvas, first maneuver.
15:00Hey, that move should be outlawed.
15:01And the one, two, and yes, he's got it.
15:04He's got it, he's got it.
15:06That move should be outlawed.
15:07That should be the ring of the World Wrestling Federation.
15:10Marty Jannetty obviously cheated on that match to win,
15:13just like he cheats on every single match he ever had in his life.
15:17And he's a loser, and he's out of the IRS.
15:19He's been in the middle of the ring.
15:22Speaking of cheats, we all know what you got in that briefcase there.
15:25You gotta raise the score in the briefcase.
15:27I see you're cheating.
15:28Who do you think you're talking to, you little boy?
15:30Hey, what are you doing?
15:58A melee has ensued.
16:00Look at this.
16:01And Marty Jannetty wants the IRS to get in the ring.
16:11Stay with us, everyone.
16:13We'll be back with our Monday Night Raw.
16:15What's gonna happen next?
16:19We're back, ladies and gentlemen.
16:21Get back to your position.
16:23Erwin R.
16:23Shyster- Enough, get back to your position.
16:26Let's go.
16:27Erwin R.
16:28Shyster is looking everywhere.
16:31He has been looking everywhere for his briefcase during the entire-
16:33Where's my briefcase, McMahon?
16:35I have no idea where your briefcase- You mean you don't have any idea?
16:38You're sitting right here.
16:40Yeah, I was sitting right there when you knocked me over just about, yeah.
16:43Jannetty, take my briefcase.
16:45You took, you saw it in the briefcase, right?
16:50Where's my briefcase?
16:53Jannetty took it, I know it, and I'm going to get it.
16:56Yeah, go get it.
16:57You better make sure he didn't take it, I'm gonna find out who took it.
17:01Erwin R.
17:01Shyster, I guess, on his way back to the dressing room to find Marty Jannetty.
17:05He thinks Marty Jannetty stole his briefcase.
17:08Let's stay with it if we can.
17:10Let's follow Erwin all the way back.
17:14RRS is on- Wait a minute, what's that?
17:17Whoa, wait just a moment.
17:20Hey, look at that, look what's around Razor's neck.
17:26Can you believe that?
17:29Look what is around Razor Ramon's neck.
17:34It's the gold.
17:37Yes, the kid apparently opened the briefcase and found the gold.
17:44It's now worth- Look at it, by Razor Ramon.
17:48And I believe Erwin has his briefcase back with the gold.
17:53Erwin has his briefcase back, but
17:55it might be a little bit lighter than it was before.
17:58Erwin not a happy camper, stay with us for more Monday Night Raw.
18:06Promotional consideration paid for by the following.
18:10I always like to keep my favorite snack handy.
18:16Need a little excitement, step into a Slim Jim, yeah.
18:22We're back, ladies and gentlemen- This is an injustice, big man.
18:26You have your briefcase with you.
18:27Somebody should call security right now.
18:29They just stole all the contents of Marty Jannetty's briefcase.
18:32That Jannetty's responsible for this whole thing.
18:33Then you admit that you had Razor's gold in there after all.
18:34I didn't say that.
18:35You're putting words in my mouth, big man.
18:36I never said that.
18:37I said they stole the contents in there.
18:38It's nobody's business what I had in my briefcase.
18:39Well, it was unquestionably Jack Cunningham who did this earlier this week.
18:40Jack Cunningham's a thief.
18:41Marty Jannetty's a thief.
18:42Razor Ramon's a thief.
18:43Be careful what you say.
18:44Let's take you now to the comments, ladies and gentlemen.
19:30WrestleManias indeed have their just opportunity.
19:33For the first time in WrestleMania history, the WWF title will be defended not once, but
19:39twice at the same event.
19:42And there could be no greater event than WrestleMania X at Madison Square Garden.
19:48Let me elaborate.
19:50This Monday night, there will be a coin toss to determine who will be the competitor to
19:56face Yokozuna.
19:59Assuming, of course, that Yokozuna is the champion at WrestleMania X.
20:04If Lex Luger wins the coin toss, he will face Yokozuna, which means that Bret Hart would
20:11then face suitable competition.
20:14In this case, his brother, Owen Hart.
20:17After the Bret Hart-Owen Hart match, Bret then would face the winner of the Lex Luger-Yokozuna
20:24match.
20:25However, if Bret Hart wins the coin toss this Monday night, then he will face Yokozuna,
20:32which means that Lex Luger would then also face suitable competition.
20:37In this case, Crush.
20:39After the Lex Luger-Crush match, Lex Luger would then face the winner of the Bret Hart-Yokozuna
20:45match.
20:46All three parties, Yokozuna, the current champion, Bret Hart, and Lex Luger, the current contenders,
20:54have agreed to this historic format, which will take place at WrestleMania X.
21:00I believe, under the circumstances, this is a fair and equitable decision.
21:06Just one more thing.
21:08Unannounced guest referees, acceptable to all parties, will be assigned to the two championship
21:15matches at WrestleMania.
21:19We are back, ladies and gentlemen, and we are live, and we are cooking on Monday Night
21:25Raw.
21:26Those comments from this past weekend from the president of the WWF, Jack Tuggin, I must
21:30say, a very equitable decision indeed.
21:33You know something, man?
21:35If man, there's one thing I hate, it's a thief, and that's exactly what Marty Jannetty is,
21:40a thief.
21:41And if he's got any guts at all, I'll wrestle him right here next week on Monday Night Raw,
21:47and I'll show him just exactly how the IRS treats a tax cheat and a thief, if he's got
21:52any guts, that is.
21:55You're challenging Marty Jannetty for a match-up here next week?
21:58That's exactly what I'm doing.
22:00Right here next week, I'm gonna beat him like a drum.
22:02That'll be interesting.
22:03We'll try and get word from Marty Jannetty a little bit later on as to whether or not
22:07he will accept the challenge from Erwin Arsheister.
22:10And right now, Mr. Rossano in there against the beast from the east, Bam Bam Bigelow.
22:17Watch Bam Bam tear this guy up.
22:19This is exactly what I'm gonna do to Jannetty next week, right here on Monday Night Raw,
22:23McMahon.
22:24What makes you think he's going to accept the challenge?
22:25If he's got any guts, he will.
22:27I see, if he has any guts.
22:28And even if he doesn't, I'll pull some strings in Washington and make sure he's in this ring.
22:32Yeah, I bet you have a lot of strings in Washington, don't you?
22:35You know I do, McMahon.
22:37Speaking of big match-ups, this coming weekend on WWF Challenge, Bam Bam Bigelow against
22:44Doink the Clown.
22:45Now, that one's been brewing for some time.
22:47You'll see it this coming weekend on WWF Wrestling Challenge.
22:51What a match-up.
22:52Oh, Bam Bam missing.
22:54It could be Doink's last match, McMahon.
22:56Look at this, Rossano hammering away on Big Bam Bam Bigelow.
23:03This is hilarious.
23:05Rossano can do what he wants, but Bam Bam is gonna tear him up.
23:10And Bam Bam apparently nailed in the eye a little bit earlier on.
23:14His vision partially impaired.
23:16Oh, my goodness!
23:18I want Doink!
23:21Uh-oh.
23:22You heard that.
23:26Bam Bam wants Doink.
23:27Right now, he has Rossano.
23:28And he is.
23:29Oh, my goodness.
23:30Forget about it.
23:32You know something, McMahon?
23:34If Marty Jumedi was smart, he'd put on a disguise like Bill and Hillary Clinton
23:39and just get out of town before I get my hands on him.
23:42I see.
23:43You and your White House connections and all of that.
23:45Coming off the rope, Rossano now.
23:46Bam Bam Bigelow, back pressure!
23:48Oh, my goodness!
23:51Maybe we could find him on Jimmie Johnson's boat.
23:56Well, uh, Bam Bam Bigelow, we can find him right here on Monday Night Raw.
24:00Tattoos all over the place.
24:03The Beast from the East.
24:04Pretty much having his way with Rossano.
24:06However, I would suggest that he's gonna have some problems with Doink the Clown this coming weekend.
24:10Look at that maneuver.
24:12Oh, my.
24:13Very impressive on the part of Bam Bam.
24:15He's very agile for a man his size.
24:17Here's the cover that can, and this one's history!
24:25Bam Bam Bigelow, no doubt headed to WrestleMania, ladies and gentlemen.
24:28WrestleMania 10, back on Broadway.
24:30Bigelow!
24:31Ten years in the making.
24:33Sunday, March the 20th, from Madison Square Garden in New York, New York.
24:41And just who will face the WWF Champion at WrestleMania?
24:45We'll be back and find out with the coin flip.
24:48So stay with us!
24:49Will it be the Hitman?
24:51Will it be Lex Luger?
24:52We'll find out when we return.
24:57We're back, ladies and gentlemen.
25:00Among other luminaries, would you please welcome
25:02the esteemed President of the World Wrestling Federation, Mr. Jack Tunney.
25:12All right, Mr. Tunney.
25:13Correct me if I'm wrong on this scenario you have set up.
25:17And I might have had a very equitable decision on your part.
25:19Very fair indeed.
25:21And let me run through it and see if I have it right.
25:23If Lex Luger wins the coin toss,
25:26Lex Luger faces Yokozuna at WrestleMania.
25:29Which means then that Bret Hart
25:31must face his brother, Owen,
25:33prior to the Lex Luger-Yokozuna match.
25:36And then Bret would then go on and face the winner
25:39of the Luger-Yokozuna match.
25:41Correct. That's correct.
25:43All right. If in fact, however,
25:45the Hitman, Bret Hart, wins the coin toss,
25:47then Bret Hart will face Yokozuna.
25:49Which then means that Lex Luger would face suitable competition
25:53prior to the title match.
25:55In this case, Luger against Crush.
25:57And then Lex Luger would then go on and face the winner
25:59of the Bret Hart-Yokozuna matchup.
26:01That's the way it is.
26:03And you have the coin toss.
26:05Do you have the coin with you?
26:07I have the coin with me, Vince.
26:09Could we take a look at that coin just to make sure
26:11that it has two sides to it?
26:13Uh, wait a minute now.
26:15Heads.
26:17Let's get a look at it.
26:19Is this a Canadian coin, by the way, Mr. Tunney?
26:23This is United States Silver Dollar.
26:26United States Silver Dollar.
26:28That's one side.
26:30Could we see the other?
26:32There we go.
26:34All right, ladies and gentlemen.
26:36With that in mind, would you please welcome
26:38one of the two co-winners
26:40of the 1994 Royal Rumble.
26:42Ladies and gentlemen, would you please welcome
26:44Mr. Lex Luger!
26:46Lex Luger!
27:16All right.
27:18And now, ladies and gentlemen,
27:20please welcome the hitman, Bret Hart!
27:46All right!
28:13All right!
28:17And now, ladies and gentlemen,
28:21Mr. Jack Tunney
28:23will toss the coin.
28:25And again, a reminder, the winner of the coin toss
28:27will indeed face Yokozuna
28:29at WrestleMania.
28:31And Lex, if you don't mind,
28:33if it's all right, would you please call it
28:35when it's in the air?
28:37All right. Jack Tunney, please.
28:41Lex Luger called heads.
28:43And ladies and gentlemen,
28:45it is.
28:51Lex Luger will face Yokozuna.
28:53It's been a long, long road.
28:55I guess it started at SummerSlam.
28:57Well, first of all, I feel
28:59very fortunate to be co-winner
29:01of the Royal Rumble.
29:03I feel very lucky to have won
29:05the coin toss and get this opportunity.
29:07Now, I don't take Yokozuna
29:09lightly at all. Let me tell you something.
29:11I plan on being
29:13in that last match
29:15at WrestleMania.
29:17And Bret Hart, I couldn't think
29:19of a tougher competitor to face
29:21than you right there. I wish you the best
29:23of luck. All right.
29:25Thank you very much.
29:29And Bret, your reaction,
29:31please.
29:33Well, I'll just say first that
29:37this inevitable confrontation
29:39with my brother Owen
29:41is something that I would rather have avoided.
29:43But it looks like
29:45as fate's gonna have it,
29:47there's no way around it. It looks like I'm gonna have to
29:49go to battle
29:51with my brother Owen. So I'm just gonna
29:53have to do it and get it over with. I wish I
29:55didn't have to deal
29:57with that. But as far
29:59as Lex
30:01wrestling against Yokozuna,
30:03I wanna make it really clear that under
30:05no circumstances could I ever wish
30:07Yokozuna any luck at all.
30:09I consider you a worthy
30:11opponent, and I wish
30:13you all the luck in the world, and it would be a real
30:15honor and a pleasure
30:17to tie up with you in the
30:19last match of WrestleMania 10.
30:21I wanna wish you all the luck in the world.
30:23Thank you very much, Jerry Abbott. Ladies and gentlemen,
30:25the co-winners of the 1994
30:27WWF
30:29Royal Rumble. They are both
30:31headed to WrestleMania
30:3310. Let's hear it,
30:35Mark. Let's hear it.

30:55I'm really tired.
30:57But it's only Monday.
30:59Monday.
31:01Feels like Friday. Honey,

31:05But it's only 9 o'clock.

31:17Monday Night Raw!

31:23Unbelievable!
31:25You've got that right!
31:27Monday Night Raw!
31:29It just keeps on getting
31:31more exciting, and keeps on
31:33getting better. Take a look at this, if you will.

33:47...
33:51...
33:53...
33:55I'm gonna hurt his leg so bad, he's gonna have to crawl out of the ring.
33:59He may not be able to crawl back into the ring.
34:01Congratulations, Owen.
34:03Thank you very much.
34:04And Mr. Hart, if you wouldn't mind answering the question you refused to answer
34:07this past Sunday.
34:09What does your family think of your actions?
34:11What does your family think of the physical attack that prevailed upon you and
34:15your brother there?
34:16Why did you do what you did?
34:18Look, I told you before, and I'll say it again,
34:20it's got nothing to do with my family.
34:21And I wish you would quit trying to poke your nose into that.
34:24My family has nothing to do with this right now.
34:26It's an issue between me and Brett.
34:28It's gonna be resolved at WrestleMania X.
34:30And I guarantee you, Brett, and everybody else out there watching,
34:33I'm gonna make the Hitman ashamed of himself.
34:35And I'm gonna make him pay for the lifetime of abuse and
34:38humiliation that he's caused on me, trying to cast a shadow on me.
34:42Tell him, Owen.
34:43That's right, RR.
34:44Thank you very much for joining us.
34:46I think we've heard enough.
34:47Yeah, I've said enough.
34:48Brett Hart, you won't even be able to get in the ring at WrestleMania X.
34:51Thank you, Owen Hart.
34:53Could you believe that?
34:56You can't keep a good man down.
34:58It's time for Owen Hart to show the world who the better Hart is.
35:03By the way, Brett will, I'm sure, respond to Owen's comments from this past Sunday
35:09and respond to his comments we just heard.
35:12This coming Sunday, the Hitman Brett Hart is scheduled to join us on WWF All-American.
35:16Look at this.
35:17Look, high risk maneuver.
35:19Myers missing with that one.
35:21And Quang, very impressive as of late.
35:26This is it, McMahon.
35:27Nice move by Quang.
35:29And this one could very well be over.
35:33Yes, indeed.
35:34This guy is impressive.
35:36Yes, he is, very impressive.
35:37Here is your winner, Quang.
35:40Quang.
35:42I bet he's a handsome devil under that mask, stupid man.
35:45Oh, really?
35:49Quang, the newest protege of Harvey Wibbleman, ladies and gentlemen.
35:54Standing by right now, Todd Pettengill.
35:57And yes, Todd, we're gonna take you to a WrestleMania report.
36:00Let's go now and find out some news about WrestleMania.
36:03Welcome everyone to your WWF WrestleMania report right here on Monday Night Raw.
36:18My name is Todd Pettengill.
36:20Check out the jacket, huh?
36:22Yeah, looking fly, feeling good, got the hat working.
36:25Believe it or not, the event that was ten years in the making
36:28is right around the corner, WrestleMania X.
36:31Sunday afternoon, March the 20th from Madison Square Garden.
36:35Tickets are gone.
36:37These things sold out in one day as usual.
36:39However, tickets are still available to watch WrestleMania X
36:43on big screen closed circuit at the Paramount Theater at Madison Square Garden.
36:46You can get those tickets by calling Ticketmaster phone charge at 212-307-7171.
36:53But you better do it quick because these seats are going fast as well.
36:57Now, we just had the coin toss.
36:59You watched it, I watched it.
37:00Talk about excitement, right?
37:02That coin went up, bam, Lex Luger is the winner.
37:05That means he gets first crack at Yokozuna.
37:08Let me kind of lay this out for you.
37:09That would mean the Hitman would face suitable competition at WrestleMania X.
37:14That competition being none other than his brother, Owen Hart.
37:18Remember, regardless of the outcome of that match,
37:20the Hitman will face the winner of the Lex Yoko match.
37:24That means we will have an unprecedented first in the World Wrestling Federation.
37:28You will see two WWF Championship matches at WrestleMania X,
37:33Sunday afternoon, March the 20th.
37:36Plus, in a move already agreed upon by all participants,
37:39there will also be unannounced guest referees for both WWF Championship matches.
37:45And as you know, they could be anybody.
37:47Now, in the weeks to come, I will be right here every Monday night bringing you
37:51updates, not only on the unbelievable matches scheduled for WrestleMania X,
37:56but also the who's who list.
37:58The cavalcade of celebrities already lining up to be part of the biggest
38:02WrestleMania of all time, the WrestleMania that was ten years in the making.
38:07WrestleMania X, live from Madison Square Garden, Sunday afternoon, March the 20th.
38:12When we come back here on Monday Night Raw, a very special look at The Undertaker.
38:17We're back with more Monday Night Raw.
38:22Right now, let's take you back to this past weekend, ladies and gentlemen.
38:25Let's take you now to a tribute to unquestionably a phenom in
38:29the World Wrestling Federation.
38:31Let's take you to the tribute of The Undertaker.
38:33Yes, can you feel it?
38:39Can you feel it?
38:42The spirit of my Undertaker.
38:46I feel it all around.
38:50In fact, I feel it the strongest,
38:55the strongest right here.
38:58And the spirit of my Undertaker is alive in each and every one of you.
39:07Some say that my Undertaker is gone.
39:14But that couldn't be further from the truth.
39:17You must remember what my Undertaker said.
39:23He said he would never, never rest in peace.
39:30But you, you can mark my words.
39:34My Undertaker will return.
39:38He will return.
39:40Yes, my Undertaker will return.
39:47Yes, he will return.
39:52He will return.
39:56The spirit of the Undertaker felt by this capacity crowd in Birchdale, Pennsylvania.
40:01We are live here for Monday Night Raw.
40:05And you're about to hear a big ovation.
40:07Corey Student.
40:10No, not for Corey Student, but yes, indeed, things are starting to shake here.
40:17And here comes The Goodness coming back to the WWF.
40:20I thought for a second there when you said there was gonna be a big ovation.
40:28You were taking a walk, McMahon.
40:29You're a riot.
40:32The earthquake, ladies and gentlemen, ready to lock up with Corey Student.
40:36Look out.
40:37My, look at this.
40:38Can he ever move?
40:39Unbelievable.
40:42Look out from behind, Corey Student attacking the earthquake.
40:47Student trying to lock up.
40:49Coming off the ropes now.
40:50Uh-oh, look at this.
40:52And ready to move.
40:55I know that didn't feel good, McMahon.
40:57No, indeed not.
40:58That's a lot of weight.
40:59Student appears to be just that, the student and the teacher right now is he,
41:03what's this?
41:04Wait a minute, it has been confirmed, Marty Jannetty has accepted the challenge.
41:08Marty Jannetty, to meet you, Erwin, right here next week on Monday Night Raw.
41:14What about it? Do you have that in writing, McMahon?
41:16I'd like to see that document right now.
41:18I don't think you need it in writing.
41:19His word is his bond.
41:21Yeah, I trust Jannetty.
41:22Obviously, I trust him.
41:24I want it in writing before Monday Night Raw is finished tonight.
41:28I don't think you're gonna have a problem with that at all.
41:30Marty Jannetty, ladies and gentlemen, will, in fact, face Erwin Arnsheister.
41:34What a matchup that's going to be right here on Monday Night Raw next week.
41:39And maybe the tax man will be paying for a change as opposed to collecting it.
41:44No, I don't think so, McMahon.
41:45As a matter of fact, I'm liable to get all the contents back in my briefcase
41:50before this one's over, that they stole.
41:53Yeah, right.
41:54You mean the gold around the neck now of Razor Ramon.
41:58Razor with the gold around his waist and the gold around his neck as well.
42:01And look at this.
42:02Earthquake with Corey suited up there across the back.
42:05And drops him, has some pity on him.
42:08Wait.
42:09Wow.
42:11This is Earthquake's debut and he's already using illegal holds.
42:14I see.
42:16By the way, Wednesday, a policeman's widow discovers the new man in her life
42:19could be her husband's killer.
42:21Who am I?
42:22Tim Daly and Lauren Holly star in Dangerous Heart,
42:27a USA World Premiere movie, Wednesday night at 9, 8 Central, here on USA.
42:33I think I might even watch that one, McMahon.
42:36Sounds like your kind of movie.
42:38What does that mean?
42:40Well, I mean-
42:41Never mind, never mind.
42:43I don't wanna know.
42:43I see.
42:46I can imagine.
42:48And back to the corner here.
42:50My goodness.
42:51One, two, three.
42:55Earthquake with Student.
42:56And, my.
43:02But you could- Student is being squashed.
43:04You could say this guy is a slow learner, I would say.
43:07Perhaps so.
43:09And the Earthquake measuring Mr.
43:16Student.
43:17Forget about it.
43:19Man.
43:22Earthquake is taking it.
43:23There's a lot of people in big trouble, cuz Earthquake's back.
43:28Yeah, you've got that right.
43:29He wasn't talking to me, was he, McMahon?
43:31I think he was looking right at you.
43:32I don't think so.
43:35Why don't you go ask Mr.
43:36Earthquake if he has paid his taxes.
43:40And, what a power slam.
43:43Maybe I will.
43:46And it looks like Corey Student is ready to bite the dust.
43:53We feel the tremors coming, ladies and gentlemen.
43:56Look out.
43:57Earthquake now.
43:57He should move right now.
43:59Earthquake from McMahon.
44:00Got him.
44:01Fucked.
44:01Got him.
44:03An easy victory.
44:05Hey, McMahon, that was a quick count, don't you think?
44:08No.
44:08He could have counted to 100.
44:10Earthquake.
44:11Earthquake, victorious.
44:17And by the way, we are told that joining us momentarily will be Razor Ramon and
44:22Marty Jannetty with commentary.
44:24So we will be right back, ladies and gentlemen, with Razor and Marty.
44:28Stay with us.
44:32All right, back out here, ladies and gentlemen, with Irwin Arsheister.
44:34And standing by, I believe, do we have Razor Ramon.
44:37There we go.
44:38Marty Jannetty, Razor Ramon.
44:40Look at the gold.
44:41It never looked better than it does right now around you, Razor Ramon.
44:45But how about- Real funny, McMahon.
44:47But how about- There's a couple of these if I've ever seen one.
44:49Hey, wait a minute.
44:50What about the matchup next week?
44:52Marty, you one-on-one with Razor Ramon.
44:54You know, I wanna say something, McMahon- I beg your pardon.
44:56And Taxman.
44:58Oye, mi chico.
44:59You're talking about you want Marty Jannetty?
45:02You got him.
45:03Here I am.
45:04You know, isn't it typical of the IRS to kick a man
45:09while he's down, take advantage of an unfair situation?
45:11You know, one, two, three kids sitting there with his leg in a cast, and
45:14you wanna jump on him?
45:16Let me tell you something, IRS.
45:18For every man that's been abused by the IRS, you're gonna get satisfaction
45:23in the form of Marty Jannetty kicking your butt.
45:25I'll tell you right now,
45:27you won't whoop me without the help of your stinking government.
45:30And you can take that to the bank and then steal it from yourself.
45:34Thank you very much.
45:35Marty Jannetty, ladies and gentlemen, looking forward to the match.
45:38I surely am.
45:40But you're gonna hate Jannetty.
45:42We're out, we're back.
45:48You think this is real funny, don't you, McMahon?
45:49We're back with more Monday Night Raw.
45:51Listen to this.
45:54By the way, ladies and gentlemen, next week right here on Monday Night Raw,
45:58scheduled to join us in action, Thurman Puck, his friends call him Sparky.
46:03What a competitor.
46:05My goodness, yes.
46:07We heard him earlier on the telephone.
46:08You'll see him in action next week.
46:10The hitman's brother, The Rock, and Owen Hart in tag team action.
46:15The Smoking Guns will be here as well.
46:17And then from there, the big one next week,
46:20Erwin R. Shyster against Marty Jannetty.
46:23What a matchup that's going to be here on Monday.
46:27You love this, don't you, McMahon?
46:29These people are rude.
46:30This week, Jannetty's gonna pay.
46:32I'm gonna like it a lot better next week, that's for sure.
46:34Because I believe in Marty Jannetty.
46:36And if Randy Orton- Wait a minute.
46:39That's the one, two, three kick.
46:41Wait a minute, wait a minute.
