00:00Last Monday night on Raw, the speculation continued.
00:05Had the Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase, bought Lex Luger?
00:08DiBiase would only promise a shocking announcement for
00:11WWF superstars, but Tatanka couldn't contain himself any longer.
00:15Come on, Million Dollar Man, won't you tell the world the news that's gonna shock
00:21them?
00:22I know you bought Lex Luger, and I know he is sold out to you.
00:27Needless to say, all eyes were on WWF superstars this past weekend,
00:33anxiously awaiting the Million Dollar Man's huge announcement.
00:38Without further ado, I want to give to you the one,
00:43the only, the man made in the USA.
00:46That's right, the latest addition to the Million Dollar Man's corporation,
00:52Lex Luger.
00:53I don't believe it, Moneybag.
00:56Shawn Michaels and the rest of America were shocked to see Lex Luger appear
01:01after DiBiase's introduction.
01:03Could Lex Luger really have a price for the Million Dollar Man?
01:07Native American Tatanka had seen all the evidence he needed.
01:12Lex Luger, I thought you were my friend.
01:16I thought you represented the same things that I fought and
01:21battled for every day.
01:23Lex, you were my friend until you sold out to the Million Dollar Man.
01:29Tatanka, I did not sell out.
01:33Get ready everybody, this is Monday Night Raw.
01:38It's Monday Night Raw.
01:43It's Monday Night Raw.
01:48It's Monday Night Raw.
01:53It's Monday Night Raw.
01:58It's Monday Night Raw.
02:03That's right, tonight's gonna be a blast.
02:08Hello again, ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jim Ross, and I'm a legendary.
02:11My turn man, Randy Savage, and not only tonight will you see the 568 pound
02:16Yokozuna take on Adam Bomb, but will Tatanka leave the ring $10,000
02:21richer if he can defeat Nikolai Vorkoff?
02:25But the big question is, my turn man, has Lex Luger sold out?
02:30He says that he didn't.
02:32I don't think that he did.
02:34He's either telling the truth or he's lying.
02:39Well, hopefully tonight, ladies and gentlemen,
02:40we'll find out exactly what's going on right here on Monday Night Raw.
02:45The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
02:48Coming down the aisle, accompanied by the Million Dollar Man.
02:52Million Dollar Man leading his first acquisition.
02:57Nikolai Vorkoff to the ring in this $10,000 challenge matchup.
03:01And I'll tell you something, my turn man, there's something fishy here.
03:05I mean, it was obvious that Lex Luger was very adamant that he had not sold out to
03:09the Million Dollar Man.
03:11No doubt about it, the Million Dollar Man and
03:12Lex Luger are saying two different things.
03:14So somebody's lying.
03:17Nikolai Vorkoff, as has been documented,
03:21down on his luck considerably before he was bought by the Million Dollar Man.
03:27And you've got to think that his family's got to be very distraught at what has
03:31transpired as far as his career is concerned.
03:33But at the same time, he's accepted money to knock heads, and
03:36that can't be forgotten.
03:37From Pembroke, North Carolina.
03:39Here he comes.
03:40250 pounds.
03:42Motivation for Tataka as the Lumbee Indian makes his way to the ring
03:48in hopes of leaving with $10,000 of the Million Dollar Man's money.
03:54That $10,000 challenge was in the form of an insult because TBI,
03:58he thinks there's no way that Tataka can beat Nikolai Vorkoff.
04:04You know, Macho Man,
04:04Tataka has been very outspoken regarding the Million Dollar Man-Lex Luger
04:09controversy.
04:10Tataka's very emotional about the Lex Luger-Million Dollar Man controversy.
04:15But Tataka's gonna feel real stupid if Lex Luger's
04:19telling the truth, I'll guarantee you that.
04:23Ted DiBiase sitting on top of the financial world here in the WWF.
04:29As the veteran Nikolai Vorkoff,
04:31who will have a big size and strength advantage over Tataka here.
04:36Yeah, but Tataka's got a much better sun tan, no doubt about that.
04:39Absolutely.
04:41Got an elbow tie up with Vorkoff and Tataka.
04:45Little test of strength here, Tataka with a wrist lock.
04:48As we documented, will be much quicker than Nikolai Vorkoff.
04:52And I would think, Macho Man, he will want to get big Nikolai off his feet.
04:56Very good deduction right there.
04:58He's gotta keep his eyes off the Million Dollar Man and keep him on Vorkoff.
05:03DiBiase looking on as Tataka flies the armbar to Nikolai Vorkoff.
05:09Break it up, break it up.
05:11Vorkoff with a headbutt downstairs on Tataka.
05:16Irish whip far side, and a hard shoulder block by Tataka sends Vorkoff down.
05:22I think that surprised Nikolai Vorkoff right there.
05:25You know, Tataka is deceptively big.
05:28Very thick in his torso.
05:30And I think one of the more stronger competitors here in the WWF.
05:36No doubt about it.
05:37He's driven right now because he wants to prove a point to not only the Million
05:40Dollar Man, but Lex Luger and the entire wrestling world.
05:44Rights and less by Nikolai Vorkoff, as he has Tataka back in the corner here.
05:49Tataka's gotta get out of that corner, but everybody would know that.
05:53Extended fingers to the throat there by Tataka,
05:55shielding from the official, and a double axe handle to the mid-back area.
06:00DiBiase likes what he's seen thus far.
06:02Million Dollar Man doesn't want to lose that $10,000, but
06:07more important, he doesn't want to be embarrassed.
06:11Stay on it.
06:14DiBiase shouting instructions to his first acquisition here at the WWF.
06:20As you can see, documented on the back of Volkoff's tights,
06:23property of the Million Dollar Man.
06:26Nikolai Vorkoff's not a smooth wrestler, but he's a very powerful wrestler.
06:31He'll lean on you.
06:32Very deliberate.
06:33That's it, that's it, get on it.
06:34And again, Volkoff with a double axe handle.
06:41Very deliberate, high impact maneuvers by Volkoff, and
06:44a kick to the ribs of Tataka by the veteran.
06:46Volkoff with those kicks right to the head.
06:54And Tataka has found himself on the defensive here.
07:00Another hard kick to the head, and Tataka in a great deal of trouble.
07:03Not only with his pride, but $10,000 of DiBiase's money on the line here.
07:09Tataka better get a wake-up call right here real soon,
07:12because Nikolai Volkoff's all over Tataka.
07:15Volkoff very, very aggressive, and you have to believe Macho Man,
07:20that he received a stern talking to from the Million Dollar Man before the match.
07:26As Tataka got that wake-up call, firing up those tops, and Volkoff now in trouble.
07:32Volkoff reeling as Tataka backs him into the ropes.
07:36Here he comes with the Irish Whip.
07:37It's gonna be reversed by Volkoff, and Volkoff caught him with the elbow.
07:42I'm sure DiBiase's got Volkoff psyched to the max,
07:45dangling all that money in front of him right before this match.
07:47Volkoff had a big victory this past weekend on WWF Challenge.
07:54He beat Virgil, my, what a clothesline,
07:57with a little help from the Million Dollar Man, did he defeat Virgil?
08:00That was a wicked clothesline by Tataka, a nice drop kick.
08:04Up and over goes Volkoff, and
08:06Nikolai Volkoff now reeling from the offensive attack of Tataka.
08:12Nikolai Volkoff doesn't look like he's in a hurry to get back into the ring with
08:16Tataka.
08:19Look at this, Jim Ross.
08:21You got to get back in there, you're working for me, you get the job done.
08:27$10,000, Nikolai, $10,000.
08:30Get back in there and get the job done.
08:32What a sad situation this is.
08:35Verbal abuse by the Million Dollar Man on Nikolai Volkoff.
08:39And Volkoff brings Tataka outside.
08:42My, Volkoff really manhandling the Native American here on the outside.
08:48And he does it again.
08:49I guess the Million Dollar Man's pep talk worked on Nikolai Volkoff.
08:54I think DiBiase enjoys abusing his authority.
08:58Definitely abusing his power like all bosses do.
09:03Volkoff now stomping away at Tataka with DiBiase's $10,000 on the line here.
09:10Volkoff has got a great deal of incentive.
09:12Get him, Nikolai, put him away.
09:14You know, everybody hates their boss to some degree.
09:18And I think Nikolai Volkoff really hates the Million Dollar Man, but
09:21he's got no choice.
09:22Go on ahead, break it, boy.
09:24Very good point, as Volkoff with a headbutt downstairs.
09:30And DiBiase seems to be getting a little anxious here.
09:34Native American Tataka showing some life right here.
09:39Tataka with his head bouncing off the turnbuckle.
09:42And he's trying to get that war dance going.
09:45Getting a little momentum, and look at DiBiase.
09:47My, not his chops.
09:53Volkoff in trouble.
09:55Tataka with another chop, and down goes the veteran.
09:59Nikolai's wobbly legged.
10:02Tataka knocks him down again.
10:05And the Native American climbs the ladder up top.
10:08He wants to put Volkoff away.
10:10Caught him with a big tomahawk chop.
10:12He's got the ladder pressed, and he's got two, and that's all this time.
10:16From the top of the Empire State Building,
10:18Tataka dropped on Volkoff, but it wasn't good enough.
10:22Irish whip down, coming up, far corner.
10:25He got caught in the face by the big boot of Nikolai Volkoff.
10:29And Volkoff shows his strength, scooping up Tataka and slamming him.
10:33$10,000 and a lot of prides in the balance.
10:36It's a cradle, one, two, three, he got him, he got him.
10:42Tataka has defeated Nikolai Volkoff, and
10:45has won $2,000 of the Million Dollar Man's money, and DBIC is living.
10:51Give him the $10,000.
10:55You're gonna lose that, man.
11:00Come here, big man.
11:01You lost, get the $10,000, give it to Tataka.
11:05Hey, you lose, big man.
11:07You owe him money, give him his money.
11:15Back off, Macho.
11:16I ain't backing up, pay the money.
11:19Come on, big money, keep your head on, Macho Man, I'm a man of my word.
11:24Well, that's debatable.
11:25Pay him his money, you owe him $10,000.
11:28This is gonna be great, give him the money.
11:32Never let it be said that the Million Dollar Man is not a man of his word.
11:37You're gonna find out right now, pay him his money, pay him his money.
11:41$10,000, Tataka, I never said that I didn't think you were a great athlete.
11:51You are, as a matter of fact, I have to admit that I was pretty impressed tonight.
11:58As a matter of fact, maybe you even earned this money.
12:05You know, but, but- He's up to something, he's up to something.
12:10What you did here tonight to Nikolai Volkov, you could never,
12:17ever in your wildest dream or on your best day do that to my Lex Luger.
12:25My Lex Luger?
12:27Save your money, kid.
12:29A Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase,
12:35I can beat your Lex Luger on my worst day.
12:41You think that you can beat Lex Luger?
12:44You think you can beat my Lex Luger?
12:46Your ego is that big that you think you can beat Lex Luger?
12:51Well, I'll tell you something.
12:51Here comes Lex, here comes Luger.
12:53I'll tell you something, Tataka, if you think you can beat Lex Luger,
12:57why don't you tell him yourself?
12:59Why don't you challenge him right now?
13:01Because here he comes.
13:04Where's DiBiase going?
13:05This is the second time we've seen Luger tonight.
13:07The first time he was admit that he had not sold out to the Million Dollar Man.
13:11Well, Tataka, do you have a, obviously you have a problem with me.
13:16Are you challenging me?
13:18Do you really think you can beat me?
13:21Is that what you're saying?
13:22Lex Luger, that's what I'm definitely saying.
13:25I can beat you any time, any place.
13:28You name the time and the place, I'll be there.
13:33Sounds like we got a match.
13:35I don't understand this, I saw Luger and DiBiase gaming eye contact.
13:42Now somebody's gotta tell me, what is going on here?
13:45What is going on here?
13:46You heard him, you got the match you wanted.
13:49Anytime, any place, you want my Lex Luger, you just let me know.
13:57Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to Monday Night Raw.
14:00As you can see, this crowd in basically a stunned silence.
14:02They're confused, as am I.
14:04Has Lex Luger sold out to the Million Dollar Man?
14:07Well, everybody here heard what the Million Dollar Man said.
14:09DiBiase has sold out to the Million Dollar Man.
14:12Lex Luger sold out to the Million Dollar Man.
14:14Well, everybody here heard what the Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase, said.
14:17He said his Lex Luger sold.
14:21Folks, there's a lot more to this story than meets the eye.
14:23But as you can hear, the Head Shrinkers are on their way to the ring.
14:27We're ready for Tag Team Action.
14:30Macho Man, did you see the look that Luger shot DiBiase there in the ring?
14:35I couldn't tell if it was a look of, hey, stay out of my way,
14:39or a look of, don't worry, everything's under control.
14:43Something's going on there.
14:45Ladies and gentlemen, we're scheduled to take a quick 30-second time out.
14:49We should do that right now, as a matter of fact.
14:51But, hey, hey, the Head Shrinkers.
14:53Check out these Head Shrinkers, brother.
14:56Promotional consideration paid for by the following.
15:00To be the World Wrestling Federation Champion, you gotta want it every day.
15:04It takes an integrated approach to training,
15:06and that is what ICO Pro is all about.
15:09We have a match with Farside, and he caught him with a co-sign.
15:17High impact maneuver.
15:19Awesome, no secret, my favorite team is the Head Shrinkers.
15:22They're impervious to pain, and they work exceptionally well together.
15:26Check this out.
15:27Double hip-butt as Batu takes in his partner, Samu.
15:31The WWF Tag Team Champions looking as intense and as physical as ever.
15:38We apologize, ladies and gentlemen, for taking that quick break just moments ago,
15:42but still to come in this hour, the 568-pound Yokozuna takes on Adam Bond.
15:48What a one-on-one matchup that's gonna be.
15:49We'll hear more from Leslie Nielsen,
15:51when I have a special interview with the WWF Women's Champion, Alundra Blaze.
15:57Wow, what a DDT from the second rope.
16:01Joey Stoll just almost got driven through the mat,
16:04and we're going to see Duke the Dumpster Grossi in action.
16:08Pull that repress.
16:08One, two, and he picked him up.
16:11That's right, he picked him up.
16:12He could have pinned him, but he didn't.
16:14And apparently, we're gonna try to get Jerry the King Lawler on the telephone.
16:17No doubt, Monday Night Raw's gonna have to pay for it.
16:21Double teamed by the WWF Tag Team Champions.
16:24They are assaulting this young man here.
16:27Talk about relentless.
16:29I hope that the mama's boy down in the Smoky Mountains,
16:33James E. Cornette, is watching very closely,
16:36because I know his heavily bodies want a shot at the WWF Tag Team titles.
16:42Well, let me warn you, Cornette, the Head Triggers are fearless.
16:45They're very rugged, and they rely on Albano for experience.
16:49Team Head Triggers are very well put together.
16:54Albano's got a wealth of experience, as we have documented.
16:57Plus, he speaks 20 different languages.
17:00Uh-oh, here's more double teaming by Batu and Samu.
17:04Double clotheslines.
17:06They are assaulting, and as aggressive as we have ever seen them,
17:11here this week on Monday Night Raw.
17:13Talk about the look when Lex Luger and B.B.I.C. gave each other.
17:15Uh-oh, ladder one, two, and-
17:17The Head Triggers sometimes look like they're gonna beat up each other.
17:20They're so intense.
17:22Well, they enjoy competing here on Monday Night Raw,
17:24because it was here about three months ago on Raw
17:28that they beat the Quebecers to win the WWF Tag Team titles.
17:32Let me tell you about the Head Triggers.
17:34They're typical new generation.
17:36WWF, they got raw strength.
17:38They're very agile, and they're very, very, very quick.
17:42Oh, another hard headbutt.
17:44And Hardy gets knocked off the apron by Samu.
17:47Very unorthodox is this team, with perhaps the highest threshold of pain
17:53of any team that I have ever seen.
17:55And they're full of surprises.
18:00There's another one.
18:02Ah, two, hammering Hardy on the outside.
18:04Action all over the ring here.
18:07Hey, Head Triggers, I like you guys.
18:10Don't be looking at me like that.
18:11No kidding.
18:13Well, they have been dominant in this contest.
18:16I wonder if they will defend their tag team titles at SummerSlam,
18:21and if so, against who?
18:23Ah!
18:25Poor double teaming.
18:27They need to put this young man out of his misery.
18:29Even when they tag each other, they tag hard.
18:32Oh, watch this move.
18:33Remember, 5'2", over 300 pounds.
18:37The big man on top.
18:39And here he comes!
18:41That is patented, Head Triggers.
18:43Unbelievable!
18:45And that is a victory for the Head Triggers.
18:49Man, they have been so, so dominant here.
18:52I don't know who they will face at SummerSlam, but I don't envy that team.
18:57Check out the atmosphere.
18:58Maybe the Head Triggers will challenge six different tag teams
19:01in the same night at SummerSlam.
19:03What a Monday Night Raw we'll have here next week!
19:06Just listen to this!
19:08Razor Ramon and Shawn Michaels.
19:11Their ladder match at WrestleMania X was one of the greatest battles in WWF history.
19:17Last week, their paths crossed again on Monday Night Raw.
19:21Razor Ramon came to the aid of Lex Luger,
19:24but Shawn Michaels and Diesel made him pay for his cameo appearance.
19:28Now, the bad guy plans to light the vacancy sign at the Heartbreak Hotel.
19:34Razor Ramon battles Shawn Michaels next week on Monday Night Raw.
19:41Well, if next week is just half as good as their ladder match at WrestleMania, I can't wait!
19:46And ladies and gentlemen, when we come back, it's Jim, the Inval Neidhart!
19:53Welcome back, everyone, and thanks so much for being with us.
19:56Jim Ross and Macho Man Randy Savage here with you tonight on Monday Night Raw.
20:00And here they come, Jim, the Inval Neidhart, with his brother-in-law,
20:05the King of Hearts, Owen Hart.
20:07It's like Boots Cassidy and the Sundance Kids.
20:09Look at that guy!
20:10That guy is devious, Jim Neidhart.
20:13Well, I can tell you one thing.
20:14If insanity is contagious, Owen's been exposed hanging around The Anvil.
20:19No doubt about it, Neidhart is not playing with a blown deck.
20:22He's a loose cannon.
20:24He's crazy, and everybody knows crazy is as crazy does.
20:29Indeed, you are right.
20:32The wit and wisdom of Forrest Gump.
20:35Hey, Macho Man, I stole it from him.
20:38It's legal.
20:38Jim, the Inval Neidhart, one of the more powerful competitors you'll ever see.
20:46I want respect.
20:47I'm a king.
20:48He wants to be the World Wrestling Federation champion, too.
20:52Jim Powers has got to be quick, oh, so very quick,
20:56to survive against Jim, the Inval Neidhart, who just missed the clothesline.
21:00And now, oh!
21:01Neidhart elevated Powers all the way over the top rope and down to the floor.
21:05Powers looked like he was off to a great start,
21:08but then the devious one, The Anvil, caught him by surprise.
21:13Neidhart measures Powers and clubs him with that forearm right across the chest.
21:18Unbelievable wall power by The Anvil, Jim Neidhart.
21:21Neidhart volunteered to be in his brother-in-law,
21:25Bret Hart's corner at the King of the Ring.
21:27In a steel cage, Bret, I'm taking your pride,
21:30and I'm taking that title, just like I beat you at WrestleMania.
21:34As I was about to say before, we were interrupted, Macho Man.
21:40The agenda that Neidhart had at the King of the Ring was not to support his brother-in-law.
21:46Not even to support his brother-in-law.
21:48He had other agenda and other motives, which he carried out.
21:53He wants Owen Hart to be the World Wrestling Federation champion.
21:57Neidhart clubbing away at the lower back of Jim Powers here.
22:02Another hard forearm by this extremely strong and very volatile individual.
22:07Knowing Diesel and Shawn Michaels,
22:09they can't be happy with Jim The Anvil Neidhart at the King of the Ring either.
22:13Well, the jury is still out.
22:15Could The Hitman have been able to kick out of Diesel's jackknife?
22:20We'll never know, perhaps.
22:22My brother-in-law, The Anvil, a real powerhouse and someone I can trust.
22:27Is that a look of pride or is that a look of insanity?
22:30Well, he is the youngest of the Hart children and he's certainly acting that way right now.
22:36His mother and father have got to be so embarrassed and so ashamed of his actions.
22:43Neidhart and Owen Hart, the Rocket, guilty of dividing the family.
22:47Unlike a friend of mine that just was proven innocent.
22:52Waistlock applied by Neidhart as he drops Jim Powers with that suplex.
22:59Press one, two, and Neidhart could have had the victory right there.
23:02Look at The Rocket.
23:06Changes with the wind.
23:08Well, he certainly has his sights set on his brother's WWF Championship.
23:13He wants to win it during the Summer Slam Tour as Powers fires back with right hands.
23:18But Neidhart reverses the Irish whip and he's planted with that Power Slam.
23:23His attitude's even more aggressive than he was in the World Wrestling Federation before.
23:28Neidhart now, manhandling Powers.
23:31Got him in a submission maneuver right here, bending him backwards.
23:35Powers, how much longer will he last?
23:37Not much longer.
23:38Not much longer.
23:39Powers gives it up.
23:41Neidhart with a submission victory.
23:43And that young man, Owen Hart, wants to beat his brother with or
23:48without the help of the Anvil this summer during the Summer Sizzler Tour and
23:52become the WWF Champion.
23:54But in any event, no matter what happens, Nacho Man,
23:57the two brothers will meet inside the steel cage at SummerSlam.
24:02Exactly.
24:03And still to come right here tonight,
24:06the 568-pound Yokozuna goes one-on-one without a bomb.
24:12It's gonna be wild and woolly.
24:15Oh, look at this.
24:16Mutual admiration society.
24:19This is completely and utterly sarcastic for The Hitman.
24:23Because those are Brett The Hitman Hart's glasses.
24:28Alundra Blaze, the WWF Women's Champion,
24:31has stampeded her way through all of her competition.
24:35Now she must take on this raging bull from the land of the rising sun.
24:40Alundra Blaze clashes with Bull Nakano next week on Monday Night Raw.
24:46Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming the WWF Women's Champion,
24:52Alundra Blaze.
24:54What an ovation for the World Wrestling Federation Women's Champion,
24:59Alundra Blaze, adding abuse, burbs and curves to the World Wrestling Federation.
25:06Aha.
25:06Jim Ross, Brady, and
25:09Alundra Blaze.
25:18And I caught him spraying a little cologne on himself before this interview happened.
25:28Enjoy the light show of the new generation, Monday Night Raw.
25:34Check it out.
25:35Alundra, thanks very much for being with us.
25:37Recently, you did something rather unusual for a champion.
25:41You issued a challenge to any ladies athlete, any lady in the world,
25:45to challenge you to wrestle you for the WWF Women's Title.
25:50Luna Vachon was the first to accept your challenge.
25:53That's right, Jim Ross.
25:55Luna Vachon, you have been a thorn in my side ever since I came into the WWF.
26:01Well, not anymore.
26:03I am finished with you.
26:05You know why I am the World Wrestling Federation Ladies Champion?
26:09Because I have pride, and I have dignity, and I have class, and honey, I have morals.
26:16Let's now, if we may, turn our attention to next Monday Night.
26:21One of the greatest athletes from Japan, Bo Nakano, will be here to challenge you.
26:27Tell us about your challenger here next week.
26:30Well, Bo Nakano weighs over 250 pounds, 5'10", and I think she can beat most of the men.
26:37In fact, there's a lot more where she came from.
26:41In Japan, there's not only Bo Nakano, but there are three more other girls.
26:46Just a moment here.
26:48Alundra, please.
26:50You want to know who is responsible for bringing Bo Nakano here to America?
27:01Luna Vachon is responsible for bringing her to America.
27:08What a sexy voice.
27:10Apparently, Alundra, our question has been answered.
27:14Luna Vachon responsible for your challenger, Bo Nakano, here next week?
27:18She's not responsible for anything.
27:20I have the title now.
27:22I'll always have the title.
27:24And need I say more?
27:26All right, ladies and gentlemen, there you hear it from the WWF Women's Champion,
27:30Alundra Blaze, a member of the new generation.
27:34I wonder if the lunatic Luna Vachon is going to be in the corner
27:37of Bo Nakano next week when she goes against Alundra Blaze
27:42in a non-title match.
27:44Wow.
27:45Talk about Monday Night Raw being on fire.
27:48Can't wait.
27:48Yeah.
27:58It's what I love the most.
27:59Good food, a family getting together on Monday night.
28:04Only one thing can make this night more perfect.
28:07Hey, Antonio, come here.
28:09Is everything all right, Don Chi Chi?
28:11Wonderful as usual.
28:12Just one more favor.
28:14It's 9 o'clock.
28:15Put on Monday Night Raw.
28:16I never miss that show.
28:18I can't do that, Don Chi Chi.
28:20You say no to me?
28:23I'm sorry, we don't got a cable TV.
28:29Luigi, quick, get the car.
28:32The new WWF generation.
28:34It's what the family loves to watch.
28:36Hey, Antonio, where's the cheese?
28:42Where's the cheese?
28:44Where's the meat?
28:45Hey, I don't know, but I know where the beef is, Jim Ross,
28:47and it's coming down the aisle right now in the form of Yokozuna.
28:52Mr. Fuji will lead the 568-pound former WWF champion to the ring.
28:59And ladies and gentlemen, I have never seen an athlete in my life
29:03more fearsome, more just absolutely awesome than this man.
29:09As a matter of fact, he's on the cover of the current WWF magazine, Macho Man,
29:13and the editor of that publication argues that Yokozuna is, without a doubt,
29:18the greatest WWF champion of all time.
29:22Hey, brother, don't you know who you are with over here?
29:25You know what I mean?
29:26I'm just sitting here chatting with you.
29:28I'm just sitting here chatting with you.
29:30You know what I mean?
29:31I'm just sitting here, two-time World Wrestling Federation champion,
29:34but I understand what you're talking about.
29:36That man right there, I know from personal experience that he is devastating, yeah.
29:42Well, he is a man that certainly despises the American culture.
29:47He loathes the American public.
29:50He's here for one reason with Mr. Fuji, and that's to hurt these athletes
29:54and to convert the greenback into yen.
29:58And a lot of people realize that he is definitely a threat
30:02to get that World Wrestling Federation championship back if given the opportunity.
30:08This should be quite a confrontation, ladies and gentlemen.
30:12Adam Bond has got a wealth of potential,
30:16a young man that has ridded himself of Harvey Whippleman.
30:20I've talked to him.
30:21He doesn't blame Harvey for all of his problems.
30:25He's looking forward to a new beginning here in the WWF,
30:29and I believe that he's going to become one of the great fan favorites
30:33here in the World Wrestling Federation.
30:34Well, we'll see about that.
30:35He wanted an opportunity and a chance to prove himself in the World Wrestling Federation.
30:41No time more than now has he given that opportunity against Yokozuna.
30:46Look at Yokozuna, look at Adam Bond.
30:47Look at that.
30:48Check it out.
30:49This is going to be the supreme test for that young man,
30:52Adam Bond, against that awesome, frightening, individual Yokozuna,
30:59who's got to be hovering at least around 600 pounds.
31:02I know he was announced at 568.
31:05I think he goes more than that.
31:07Well, Adam Bond, if you've got it, show it.
31:10This is the time.
31:11Monday Night Raw, you're going against Yokozuna,
31:14and that just says it all right there.
31:16Check this out.
31:18Adam Bond is a great power competitor,
31:20but he cannot match the girth and the mass of the former WWF champion,
31:26who starts off with those hard chops right to the chest
31:29and chokes Adam Bond over the top rope.
31:31Yokozuna's showing no fear of Adam Bond
31:34and the nuclear offense that he says that he possesses.
31:38Hard elbow coming off the ropes delivered by Yokozuna,
31:42a man that totally disdains the American athlete.
31:47Slow and methodical Yokozuna with the off-balance.
31:51He will not get in any hurry.
31:52He will indeed dictate the pace, if possible, in this match-up.
31:57Hard headbutt by Yokozuna.
31:59And he's proving it by doing it now.
32:03Misses the clothesline, and Adam Bond comes back
32:07with a left hand, follows it with a right.
32:09Hard right hand, Yokozuna is reeling.
32:11Adam Bond trying to quicken the pace here a little bit.
32:14It's reversed by Yokozuna.
32:15Who misses the clothesline.
32:17He misses again.
32:18But Adam Bond, clothesline found his march here.
32:23Hits him again, and Yokozuna may be on the verge of going down.
32:29Adam Bond with his shoulders off.
32:31And Yokozuna all the way outside.
32:33The crowd is getting electric right now.
32:36Yokozuna on the outside of the ring.
32:38You haven't seen that here lately.
32:40Adam Bond standing tall.
32:42Yokozuna's got a right hand.
32:44Standing tall.
32:46Yokozuna's got to make his way back to the ring.
32:50Welcome back, everyone, to Monday Night Raw.
32:52The awesome 568-pound Yokozuna being challenged by young Adam Bond here.
32:58And Adam Bond is ready for a test of strength with that beamer.
33:06Tim Ross and Macho Man Randy Savage back with you.
33:08I tell you, a lot of people are watching this all over the world.
33:10And I'll tell you one person that's watching it.
33:12It's my good friend and one of the greatest running backs of all time, Walter Payton.
33:18Happy birthday, Walter.
33:20And you know his son, Jared, is a good friend of mine.
33:22Walter in the National Football League Hall of Fame.
33:26Tremendous chop there by Yokozuna.
33:28Comes back with another headbutt.
33:30And down once again goes Adam Bond.
33:32I didn't hear what you said, Jim Ross, because my chest hurts from that last chop.
33:36Man, Macho Man, you have been in the ring with Yokozuna.
33:40And it's gotta be just, I know not intimidating, but how do you prepare to meet a man this huge?
33:46I'm pretty much okay from those confrontations.
33:48I got a little bit of a twitch, but other than that, I feel fine.
33:52He is a huge man, Orson-esque.
33:55Another chop there.
33:57What a test for Adam Bond right now.
33:59He wanted the match, he's got it.
34:02Irish whip hard into the turnbuckle.
34:05And Yokozuna caught Adam Bond with that clothesline.
34:08This huge, huge man does not get in any hurry.
34:12I think he really, really enjoys beating up, for the lack of a better term,
34:17these great young American athletes.
34:19You know, it's really scary to think that Yokozuna can take a big man like Adam Bond
34:24and put him down so easily with that clothesline.
34:28Adam Bond is 6'7".
34:30I think he weighed in at 292 and a half.
34:33He is a huge man.
34:34Exactly.
34:35Look at what he did to Adam Bond right there.
34:37Just think what he could do to Dink.
34:41You hear the crowd here getting behind Adam Bond,
34:44who, as we documented earlier,
34:46has ridded himself with that little rodent Harvey Putman.
34:54Yokozuna with just one hand on Adam Bond's neck.
34:58Obviously a nerve hole.
35:01Now both hands, now both hands.
35:03Adam Bond showing some life.
35:05Yokozuna doesn't want to let him get away.
35:07Adam Bond back up to that vertical base,
35:09catching Yokozuna in the midsection of those elbows
35:12and getting some momentum off the ropes.
35:14Yokozuna missed the clothesline once, but not twice.
35:17Adam Bond did good just to get out of there for a little while anyway.
35:23And he is just getting bigger and bigger by the day.
35:27And, you know, I gotta wonder where in the heck is that loudmouth
35:32Jim Cornette?
35:33He's usually always at ringside
35:35when we see Yokozuna here on Monday Night Raw.
35:37He might be with the Heavenly Bodies
35:39trying to figure out how to get out of the situation
35:41with the HeadShrinkers after opening this big mouth.
35:43And check this out.
35:45If he lands this, it's all over for Adam Bond.
35:49But Adam Bond, too quick on this occasion,
35:52able to avoid the contact with this huge Yokozuna.
35:56A lot of rumors floating around about Cornette
35:59and his association with Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji.
36:04Adam Bond trying to rock Yokozuna with those clotheslines.
36:08He's hitting the champion, former champion, I should say,
36:12with all he's got.
36:14And he caught him in a DDT.
36:16What a great move by Adam Bond.
36:20Big time offensive maneuver by Adam Bond
36:24has Yokozuna in trouble.
36:27If you've got it, show it now, Adam Bond.
36:29If you've got what it takes,
36:31do it against Yokozuna and we'll all be impressed.
36:34292 and a half. Off the top.
36:36He hits him.
36:38Should be over.
36:39Oh, what an upset this would be.
36:42Cover him.
36:43Look at his cover.
36:44Look, there's Harvey Willman and Quang.
36:47Big elbow lands on Yokozuna.
36:50He's got to go for the cover.
36:51Uh-oh.
36:52There's Quang and Harvey.
36:53Quang is devastated.
36:55Quang, he tripped.
36:56He tripped Adam Bond.
36:58What an opportunist move.
37:00Referee did not see it,
37:02but Adam Bond was-
37:03Right hand on Quang.
37:05Another right hand.
37:07Get that strap down.
37:08Do some fighting.
37:12Adam Bond really manhandling Quang here.
37:14Slams him on the outside.
37:16Look at Harvey.
37:17Unfortunately, Yokozuna's back up on one knee
37:20and the bell is rung.
37:21Jim Ross, what happened?
37:22I think Adam Bond should count it out,
37:24but Harvey Willman's got to be shaking in his shoes right here.
37:27Bob picks up Harvey and throws him at Quang.
37:31A gift from Adam Bond to Quang.
37:36The winner of this bout,
37:37as a result of a count out,
37:40Yokozuna.
37:43Well, Harvey and Quang cost Adam Bond the opportunity
37:47to compete in the King of the Ring
37:49when the Bond met the one, two, three kid,
37:52and now they have perhaps cost him the opportunity
37:55against that awesome man
37:57to really showcase his talents here on Monday Night Raw.
38:00What a huge disappointment.
38:02This has got to be for Adam Bond.
38:04Right here on Monday Night Raw,
38:05he had a chance to beat Yokozuna
38:07and Harvey Willman and Quang.
38:09Man, alive.
38:11How's he going to get over this?
38:14Promotional consideration paid for by the following.
38:18I always like to keep my favorite snack handy.
38:23Need a little excitement?
38:25Step into a Slim Jim, oh yeah!
38:38Boy, I'll tell you what, folks,
38:39you got to give Harvey Willman a lot of credit.
38:41This guy's got fewer brains than he does guts.
38:44I think Adam Bond did what everybody watching
38:46would have liked to do him.
38:47For that matter, probably could have.
38:49Anyway, Todd Pettengill with your WWF SummerSlam report
38:52here on Monday Night Raw
38:53being brought to you by Domino's Pizza
38:55because this year, Domino's delivers SummerSlam.
38:59Believe it or not, SummerSlam is just five weeks from tonight
39:03at the brand new United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
39:06That's a Monday night, August the 29th,
39:088 Eastern, 5 Pacific.
39:10Over 23,000 superfans will jam-pack
39:13the brand new United Center,
39:14and it's not going to be like a Yanni concert.
39:16We will be rocking.
39:18Now, let's start off talking about the huge double main event.
39:21First off, The Undertaker versus The Undertaker.
39:24Can you imagine two Undertakers in the same ring?
39:28Talk about strange.
39:29Anyway, Leslie Nielsen is now officially on board
39:32to help unravel this mystery,
39:34and if anybody can do it, Leslie Nielsen can.
39:37Now, second half of the big double main event,
39:39it's a steel cage match for the WWF Championship.
39:42Is this incredible?
39:43The Hitman defends the gold against his brother,
39:47the King of Hearts, Owen Hart.
39:49Take just a second and think about the pressure
39:51facing these two WWF superstars.
39:53Remember, their entire family will be in Chicago looking on.
39:57Truly unbelievable.
39:58And as I announced over the weekend
40:00on the WWF Television Network,
40:02the Intercontinental title will also be on the line
40:04as Diesel defends the gold against
40:07the former Intercontinental Champion,
40:09the bad guy, Razor Ramon.
40:11You talk about a great triple header.
40:13We got it for you.
40:14Monday night, 29th of August,
40:168 Eastern, from the brand new United Center in Chicago.
40:19Now, don't go away.
40:20When we come back, America's favorite garbage man cometh.
40:24It's Duke the Dumpster Drosy.
40:26Right, guys?
40:27You're right, Toddster.
40:28And not only that, we're trying to get Lawler on the phone,
40:30but if we don't, it's no loss.
40:32Our producer's trying to get Jerry the King Lawler
40:35on the phone as we speak.
40:37Ladies and gentlemen, our favorite garbage man is up next.
40:40All right!
40:42He was taken away in his prime
40:45and walked where no other man has been.
40:50Now, he has returned.
40:54That's right. I'm back.
40:56It's me. I'm undercover.
40:58To solve the mystery of the Undertaker,
41:01because I'm a man with no fear,
41:03I have seen the light.
41:06What was that?
41:09Uh...
41:10Uh, hey, uh, fellas.
41:12Uh...
41:13Uh, the lights?
41:15It was scary in here.
41:17Come on, fellas.
41:19Yoo-hoo!
41:23You know, I think Leslie Nielsen's onto something,
41:25and so am I.
41:26Well, Leslie Nielsen's reports debut
41:29every Saturday morning at 10
41:31right here on USA on WWF Mania.
41:35Don't miss Mania this Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.
41:40Duke the Dumpster Drosy on his way to the ring
41:43with his trusty trash can.
41:45And, of course, it was five weeks ago
41:47when Duke the Dumpster Drosy cross paths
41:50with Jerry the King Lawler,
41:52who I understand we're still trying
41:54to get on the phone tonight.
41:57Well, Lawler had to apologize for what he did,
42:00and I don't think he enjoyed doing that,
42:02but he had to do it anyway.
42:05Well, as we said, ladies and gentlemen,
42:06it was five weeks ago when Jerry the King Lawler
42:09used that dumpster's trash can on Big Duke,
42:12and that is certainly not appropriate here in the WWF,
42:15and quite frankly, ladies and gentlemen,
42:16I don't care if we talk to the King tonight or not.
42:20Let me tell you one thing, you peon.
42:21You better put my call through right now to those idiots,
42:24because I'm tired of waiting.
42:25Your job is on the line.
42:26I'm telling you that right now.
42:27Put me through.
42:28King, we hear you.
42:30You're on the air.
42:31You're on Monday Night Raw
42:32with Jim Ross and Macho Man Randy Savage are here.
42:35Well, it's about time I'm here.
42:36I've been dealing with an idiot
42:38that would not put my phone call through
42:40for the last 15 minutes.
42:41He's a friend of mine.
42:42Yeah, well, that explains it then.
42:44Like I said, an idiot.
42:46Well, Macho, I'll tell you something.
42:47King, we see Duke the Dumpster Drosy in the ring,
42:50and he's a man that certainly
42:52has a score to settle with you.
42:54Why would he have a score to settle with me?
42:57Explain that to me, Jim Ross.
42:58Because you used that trash can on him
43:00in a very inappropriate way five weeks ago here on Raw.
43:03Wow, look at this.
43:04That's all I've heard from everybody.
43:06Everybody I walked up to, everybody I see says,
43:08why did you hit Duke the Dumpster Drosy with a trash can?
43:12And my answer is this,
43:13because I couldn't find a baseball bat.
43:15That's nothing compared to what I'm gonna do to him
43:17the next time I get my hands on him.
43:19The thick and slimy, smelly,
43:21who could be, other than the Macho Man,
43:23who could be a fan of a garbage man?
43:26Hey, you should see Duke the Dumpster in there right now.
43:28If you're looking at the TV, check it out, man.
43:30He's all over his opponent,
43:32just like he's gonna be all over you.
43:34When he's on TV, it's not television.
43:36It's smell-o-vision.
43:37There's a bear hug applied by Duke the Dumpster Drosy
43:40on Dwayne Gill,
43:41and that looks like a hole
43:42that may be just tailor-made for you, King.
43:45Oh, I can't wait.
43:46I cannot wait.
43:47I wish I was there right now.
43:49I wish I was there in person.
43:50I wish I was there and able to climb in that ring.
43:52You'll be here.
43:53Well, wait a minute.
43:54You'll be here next week.
43:55We'll be live on Monday Night Raw,
43:56and I understand you'll be back
43:57with a very special King's Court.
43:59Oh, that's right.
44:00Next week, another King's Court on Monday Night Raw.
44:02I'm gonna play Buffalo Bob next week.
44:04You know why?
44:05Why's that?
44:06I'm gonna have as my very special guest Howdy Doody.
44:10Are you excited about that?
44:11Who's the Howdy Doody fan, huh?
44:13Who are you talking about?
44:15What time is it, kid?
44:17I'm talking about none other than Bob Backlund.
44:20Bob Backlund, your guest?
44:21What does Howdy Doody look like?
44:22I'm sure he'll bring along
44:24Well, he may be the WWE champion by Monday
44:28because he meets Bret the Hitman Hart
44:30this weekend on WWE Superstars.
44:32Well, believe it or not,
44:33I'll be pulling for Bob Backlund.
44:35You know, I don't know if he'll have the energy
44:38to get up out of his wheelchair
44:39and get in the ring there against Bret Hart.
44:41The other day, I tried to take him out
44:42to a Chinese restaurant, and he ordered egg fu.
44:45Oh.
44:46Wow.
44:47That one, two, three.
44:50There's the Dukester.
44:51He wins it right here.
44:53Oh, yeah, look at him now.
44:54He's real proud of himself,
44:55walking around with his nose up in the air.
44:57But the truth of the matter is,
44:58he does that to keep from smelling himself.
45:01He won't do that when I get through with him.
45:03Let me tell you that, Ross.
45:04You too, Macho Man.
45:05I'm gonna finish him off once and for all.
45:07Well, that remains to be seen, King.
