00:00The first ever submission match for the World Wrestling Federation title was held
00:05at the Survivor Series this past Wednesday night.
00:08The Hitman Bret Hart, the champion.
00:10In his corner, Davey Boy Smith, he'd have the towel.
00:12Would he throw it in?
00:13Or would it be Bob Backlund,
00:14the challenger with Owen Hart in his corner when Owen Hart threw the towel in?
00:18Look what happened.
00:19The sharpshooter applied on Bob Backlund, but
00:21Owen Hart clotheslines his brother Bret Hart.
00:23And then Davey Boy Smith takes after Owen.
00:25And Davey Boy hit his head right on the steps, knocked unconscious.
00:29Owen Hart distracts his brother, and Bob Backlund puts the cross-face chicken wing
00:32on Bret Hart.
00:33Bret trying to hang on as Owen Hart pleaded with his parents,
00:36begging them to throw the towel in.
00:38Finally, it happened.
00:40Helen and Stuart throw the towel in.
00:42They couldn't stand it any longer.
00:44And there at age 45, Bob Backlund once again, WWF champion.
00:49Unbelievable as he and Owen celebrated.
00:51But that wasn't the only story at the Survivor Series.
00:53Shawn Michaels tried to hog the spotlight on the Teamsters.
00:56But it was Big Daddy Cool, the seven-foot Diesel,
00:58who eliminated opponent after opponent after opponent until finally Michaels
01:02wanted to tag in because the damage had been done to Razor Ramon.
01:06Michaels said to Diesel, hold up, Razor, and then from there, the kick.
01:08But no, Razor ducks.
01:10And Shawn Michaels struck the seven-foot Diesel for the third time, and
01:14Diesel finally had had it.
01:16He had had enough with Shawn Michaels.
01:18No more Tag Team Championship, uh-uh, no more Mr. Nice Guy.
01:22And then this past Saturday night,
01:24Madison Square Garden with the Hitman's red arm temporarily out of action.
01:27Big Daddy Cool, the ranked number one contender, the bell rings, and
01:31Diesel, the seven-foot monster, seizes the opportunity.
01:34What a book to the midsection.
01:36And then from there, Bob Backlund, jackknife to the canvas.
01:40Diesel, the cover, and in a record-setting eight seconds,
01:45Diesel becomes the new World Wrestling Federation champion.
01:50The celebration was on as Big Daddy Cool became the leader of
01:55the new World Wrestling Federation generation.
02:00Welcome everyone,
02:01welcome to the kitchen of the new World Wrestling Federation.
02:08Let me introduce our special guest,
02:11the new World Wrestling Federation champion,
02:16your first official WWE Champion,
02:19Shawn Michaels.
02:21Welcome back to the show, Shawn.
02:23What's happening?
02:24Welcome everyone, welcome to Poughkeepsie, New York.
02:30Welcome to the Manhattan Civic Center, and
02:35welcome to Monday Night Raw.
02:38There's a raucous crowd here tonight on Monday Night Raw.
02:45Yes, you'll never get up from the bed, along with Terry, the King, Rawler.
02:50And indeed, we're gonna have some royal action for you tonight.
02:53Hey, hey, hey, that's right, and I can tell you in a big Thanksgiving yam breath.
02:58We're gonna have some royalty here tonight, not just me.
03:01The King of Ropes, Owen Hart, is gonna be here with us.
03:04And joining us, ladies and gentlemen, for a very special interview,
03:08the new World Wrestling Federation Champion, the seven-foot monster,
03:12Diesel, will be here.
03:14In addition to it, momentarily,
03:17what a matchup, Adam Bomb against Erwin R. Shyster.
03:21That's right, and I understand Adam Bomb's a little delinquent.
03:25Tonight, he's gonna pay up.
03:27Really?
03:28You can be paid to do this as well.
03:30Ladies and gentlemen, the one and all, approaching the ring from Calgary,
03:36Alberta, Canada, weighing 227 pounds, the King of Hearts, Owen Hart.
03:42His opponent, from Minneapolis,
03:47Minnesota, weighing 231 pounds, John Paul.
03:55All right, there we have it, Owen Hart.
04:00Owen Hart, ladies and gentlemen, who, my goodness, did he ever,
04:05I don't know what you can say about Owen Hart in terms of his actions at
04:09the Survivor Series.
04:12I'll tell you one thing you can say, I'll tell you one thing you can see.
04:15He's got that pink and black towel with him that his mother,
04:18old Michael, faced Helen Hart threw in the ring last Monday at Survivor Series.
04:23Last Wednesday night.
04:24That's right.
04:26And of course, Owen mocking his brother, Bret Hart.
04:29Who is, as we speak, ladies and gentlemen, in Calgary.
04:34And there is the very towel that Helen Hart had the displeasure of throwing in
04:40as a result of Owen's actions at the Survivor Series.
04:44See, that towel, McMahon, is sort of like, well, it's like Owen's belt.
04:47It's his own personal trophy now.
04:49Is that right?
04:50That's right.
04:51Owen Hart against John Paul.
04:55And wouldn't it be great to see John Paul pull off an upset here on Monday Night Raw?
04:59We've seen so many of them before.
05:02Great to who?
05:03Certainly wouldn't be great for the King of Hearts.
05:05Standing by, ladies and gentlemen, we have with us, I believe shortly,
05:09we're gonna have with us the former World Wrestling Federation champion,
05:13the Hitman Bret Hart, who, as we understand it,
05:15is gonna be on the phone very shortly.
05:17As he undoubtedly, if in fact we are broadcasting, my goodness.
05:22And there we go, Paul, off the rope and- Wow, what about that?
05:28Wait a minute, yes, he's with us now.
05:30What?
05:31Bret, the Hitman Hart from Calgary, Alberta, live here on Monday Night Raw.
05:36Bret, can you hear us?
05:37Yeah, I can hear you.
05:38Can you hear me?
05:39They have phone service in Canada up there, Hitman.
05:42How's your mom doing?
05:43If you don't mind, I'd like to conduct this interview.
05:45Come on, let me talk to you.
05:45Bret, firstly, thank you very much for joining us tonight.
05:49And obviously, we can hear the background, we want Bret, is what they're saying.
05:53Everyone wants to know what kind of physical condition you're in.
05:59Well, that's a good question.
06:00At this point, I've got stretched ligaments in my shoulder and
06:05I've got stretched tendon.
06:08Doesn't appear that there's anything torn, but
06:10you really can't tell right off the bat.
06:14I feel sore still, that it's really hard to say.
06:16I would say if I was a betting man that I'll be back sometime around the new year.
06:21Well, certainly hope that it's going to be a tremendous new year for you,
06:24as every year has been for you here in the World Wrestling Federation.
06:28And have you actually had an opportunity to view any of the footage and
06:32to see some of the despicable actions of your brother, Owen?
06:37I'll be really honest with you.
06:39I just, since that night, I've been kind of, I don't know what the right word is.
06:46Stressed, I guess, or discouraged by a lot of things.
06:48Did he say stretched?
06:49I don't, I haven't watched it back.
06:52I think tomorrow night, I'm gonna watch it in its entirety on the Survivor Series
06:57on where I think I'm gonna just sit back and really try to understand clearly and
07:03completely what happened, and still really, I don't know.
07:06I guess I'm really in shock.
07:08It's hard to be in shock after everything that Owen's done.
07:10I think I'm in shock.
07:12I've come to realize that life's not fair, and what happened was not right.
07:18What can you do?
07:20You gotta get back up on your horse and ride on, at least.
07:24Well, Bret, we wish you all the best.
07:26I would suggest when you watch your match on the Encore tomorrow night,
07:31I would suggest that you're gonna be even more upset than you are now.
07:35Yeah, right now, why don't you get on your horse and ride off into the sunset?
07:39Can't you ever be nice?
07:41Why would I wanna do that?
07:42I'd love to drag him on a horse.
07:44That might be appropriate.
07:47Bret, I know you're spending, as you said before, time with your family.
07:50Enjoy your time, if you can, as you're recuperating.
07:53Say hi to your mom for me.
07:55And we look, please, and we look forward to your return back in action
08:00here in the World Wrestling Federation around the first of the year.
08:03And who knows, it could happen again.
08:07You could set another record.
08:09When you come back, perhaps you could be, once again,
08:12World Wrestling Federation champion.
08:14Bret, we thank you very much for joining us tonight.
08:17Thank you, and I just wanna say to everybody,
08:19just like Douglas McCartney said a long time ago, I shall return.
08:23Ha, ha, ha.
08:24Bret, you sound like you're in great spirits considering everything.
08:27Thank you very much.
08:29So long, Bret.
08:30All right.
08:31And ironic to see this, the sharpshooter, the very hold that Bret Hart had,
08:37Bob Backlund, in until Owen Hart came in and broke it up.
08:41What, can you blame him?
08:42He took the hold of Bret Hart.
08:45Look at, he just threw the tail end on him.
08:47Ha, ha, ha.
08:48This is great.
08:49Owen Hart, ladies and gentlemen,
08:50continuing his winning ways here in the World Wrestling Federation.
08:54Owen Hart reaching a new level, a new depth, if you would.
08:59During the Survivor Series, you just wouldn't believe what Owen did.
09:03The way he manipulated his parents, it was despicable.
09:06We've never seen anything like that ever at a prior Survivor Series.
09:101994 WWF Survivor Series was the most surprising ever.
09:16Experience the drama.
09:17We have a new World Wrestling Federation champion.
09:20The Betrayer.
09:21I can't believe it.
09:23The whole team has ganged up on Diesel.
09:25The Left.
09:26Dink, Wink, Dink, Wheezy, Cheesy, and
09:29even Sleazy have the kinks spinning in circles.
09:33And the ultimate judge.
09:35Justice has been served here at Survivor Series.
09:38You won't see it on the networks or anywhere else.
09:41The WWF Survivor Series, a special encore presentation.
09:46Tomorrow night at 8 Eastern and Pacific, only on pay-per-view.
09:51Yes, for those who missed it, ladies and gentlemen,
09:53you do not want to miss the Survivor Series encore.
09:56That's tomorrow night, exclusively on pay-per-view.
10:00You don't want to miss what happened to my colleague, Jerry The King Lawler.
10:04That was a riot.
10:05Yeah, real funny, huh, Joy Boy?
10:08That's too funny for me, but don't worry, I've got things straight down now.
10:11You know, baseball's struck out, hockey's still out.
10:15Rumors are swerving about an F strike up at the North Pole.
10:18I may have to send Wheezy, Cheesy, and Sleazy up there for
10:21old Lela Fett man that wears that red suit.
10:24And speaking of the Lela Fusions, happy birthday to Randy Newman,
10:27ladies and gentlemen.
10:29Yeah, he's one of my favorite people.
10:30He's sang that song, Short People, right?
10:32Adam Bomb is ready for action.
10:36What a matchup this is going to be.
10:39Adam Bomb, ooh, yes, wow.
10:41Ready to explode on Erwin Alchester.
10:44Stay with us.
10:46We are back and we are live.
10:49Yes, from Poughkeepsie, New York, it's Monday Night Raw.
10:52Adam Bomb against Erwin Arshteyer, and here comes The Tactical Man.
10:57Yeah, look at the money trail.
10:59Yeah, the money trail, indeed.
11:01Hey, wait a minute, there's more than just the money trail out here.
11:07What's this?
11:08Well, there's Erwin Arshteyer.
11:11Yeah, and there's- Well, there's the Million Dollar Man.
11:17I've got that, too.
11:18And would you like to make a gander as to what this is out there with him?
11:22I don't know, but you might take some lessons.
11:24You'd look a lot better dressed like that.
11:27Thanks a lot.
11:29Erwin out there with his own druid, it would appear.
11:32Undertaker, you might be the master of the casket match, but
11:37you still won't rest in peace until you've paid IRS.
11:43Can you believe that?
11:47Yeah, Erwin Arshteyer, ladies and gentlemen,
11:50unquestionably somewhere along the Make-A-Wish Tour.
11:53IRS is gonna feel the wrath of The Undertaker, you wonder.
11:58Just who will be resting in peace after that match is over?
12:01We know where Yokozuna is, checking that little dirt map.
12:05Hey, listen to these morons out here, trying to get him upset.
12:08Listen to that Erwin chant.
12:10Adam Bomb locking up with IRS.
12:13IRS take nothing away from his wrestling skill, extremely accomplished.
12:17IRS hammering away on huge Adam Bomb.
12:20I think IRS is gonna make an example out of Adam Bomb.
12:23Reversal, over the hip, nicely done.
12:25What were you saying?
12:28Well, I was saying that he needs to make an example out of Adam Bomb,
12:32just to show The Undertaker what he might be in store for.
12:36Erwin Arshteyer trying to find a measure of escape here as Adam Bomb is whipped
12:40off the rope, down goes IRS.
12:43You gotta like IRS, a guy like that.
12:44Have to like him, he almost cost The Undertaker the matchup against Yokozuna.
12:49At the Survivor Series, you saw what he did.
12:51He jumped on The Undertaker when Chuck Norris wasn't looking.
12:53When Norris was distracted by a huge Bundy and Bam Bam Bigelow,
12:58that's when IRS chose his opportunity to leap from behind on The Undertaker.
13:04He put The Undertaker to sleep.
13:06The Undertaker fell on the casket.
13:08And thank goodness, came around before Yokozuna could shut the lid.
13:12Are you through, McMahon?
13:14That's what happened.
13:14I wanna know, if you have to work at being wrong, or
13:16does it just come natural to you?
13:18Wait a minute, where?
13:18What happened was Chuck Norris took a cheap shot on Double J.
13:22That's what he did.
13:23Talking about cheap shots here.
13:24No. Yeah.
13:26Adam Bomb.
13:26Adam Bomb up there with IRS.
13:28And The Taxman is thrown back into the ring.
13:33Where were you during the Survivor Series?
13:34What do you mean where I was?
13:35Look at this.
13:36What a clothesline, a slingshot clothesline.
13:38A cover on 280, no.
13:41Almost, very, very close.
13:43I was celebrating a big victory.
13:44Celebrating, yeah.
13:45That's right.
13:46You were humiliated beyond being humiliated.
13:50My goodness.
13:51Very impressed with Adam Bomb.
13:52Don't even talk about that.
13:53Everything's okay now.
13:54What do you mean by that?
13:56Well, you know, there was a little problem with my three little princes,
14:00Cheesy, Queezy, and Sleazy, but- Adam Bomb unloading.
14:04And what is Ted DiBiase doing up on the apron?
14:06Wait a minute, from behind.
14:10IRS drives the knee into Adam Bomb's back and to the outside.
14:14Now, out by that druid, I guess you would call him.
14:18Who is that?
14:20What is that?
14:21I don't know.
14:22I thought maybe you had all the answers around here.
14:24IRS with Adam Bomb and continuing with a flat on the foot.
14:28One, two, three.
14:32Adam Bomb has done extremely well for
14:34himself as of late climbing the ladder of success here in the World Wrestling Federation.
14:40Yeah, but tonight he's sliding down the ladder so fast he's gonna have splinters
14:43in his rear end.
14:43Did you slide on that, was it pumpkin pie or- Hey.
14:46What was that pie that was thrown in your face at the Survivor Series?
14:49Look, that's worth the price of admission alone,
14:51just to see what Jerry Lawler got in the Survivor Series.
14:54Do not watch it.
14:55Look at this, Adam Bomb has snapped off the top rope right back out to the outside.
15:01Let's talk about IRS.
15:02I'm telling you, I love this guy.
15:03You know, he's the kind of guy at Christmas, he buys little kids.
15:07You know what he buys them?
15:08What?
15:08He gets them a package of batteries and says on there, toys not included.
15:12Now, that's the kind of guy you gotta love.
15:15Really, and there's Mr. Scrooge himself.
15:17Mr. Scrooge?
15:18Yeah.
15:19This guy spends money like it's water.
15:21What? When he goes window shopping, he buys seven or eight windows.
15:25Adam Bomb off the rope.
15:26Adam Bomb is in trouble.
15:28What did you expect?
15:29Well, I expected a very competitive match.
15:31That's exactly what we're getting.
15:32My royal prediction was- And, the elbow right in the sternum area.
15:37Your royal prediction?
15:38It was gonna be no problem for IRS.
15:40A cover, one, two, and there it is.
15:41There it is.
15:42He does it.
15:43That was a kick out with a bit of authority, wouldn't you concur?
15:47Come on, IRS.
15:47He's got him now.
15:48Irwin R.
15:52Shyster, leaning out of his weight, wrenching back.
15:54IRS, ladies and gentlemen,
15:59almost stole the victory from The Undertaker at the Survivor Series.
16:02Speaking of stealing, did you hear about that burglar who got caught in a chimney
16:06for two days, trying to break into a pawn shop?
16:10Remember that out in Colorado, right?
16:11Yeah. Yeah, I read it.
16:13There's only one Santa Claus.
16:15Obviously, it's not that gentleman.
16:17And wait a minute, coming off the rope now, Adam Bomb underneath the roundhouse.
16:20Right in, yeah, crossbody, one, two.
16:26Welcome back, everyone, to Monday Night Raw.
16:28Here's what we saw earlier on as we went to the break.
16:31Yeah. There was Adam Bomb and
16:34there was a kick out.
16:35Everybody thought they had him.
16:38And now, Adam Bomb trying to hang on abdominal stretch here in IRS a moment
16:43ago, reaching for the ropes and getting a little more leverage.
16:46I didn't see that.
16:47Now you see it, right?
16:48Well, see, I'll tell you when I see something.
16:50Yeah, right, and you also saw it was the official saw it.
16:54That's right.
16:54Easy for me to say.
16:56Adam Bomb against Erwin Arnst Shyster.
16:58Yes, here we go with a roll up, single leg, and almost got him, almost got him.
17:05Might have just made him angry there.
17:07Erwin Arnst Shyster going back to what he was successful at earlier on,
17:10reverse chin lock, and look at this, come on.
17:11What a move.
17:15I mean, IRS is always talking about tax cheats.
17:18As far as cheating is concerned,
17:20I believe he stole a chapter or two from your book, Jerry Lawler.
17:24My book?
17:25Yeah, your book.
17:25What do you mean by that, McMahon?
17:27Everything you do.
17:29Look at that, look at that.
17:30Look at this.
17:33And I'm sure you would correct the, uh-oh, there's Ted DiBiase,
17:36who I must say was quite successful at the Survivor Series.
17:39His million dollar team doing extremely well for themselves.
17:43You gotta like him, too.
17:45He's so rich, every night when he says his prayers, he starts by saying, hey,
17:48God, you need anything?
17:49Ha, ha, ha, he gots loaded.
17:52Unbelievable.
17:55Adam Bob is in a little trouble here.
17:57IRS, no.
17:58Wait a minute, reversal.
18:00Pulled his hair, I saw that.
18:01Look at that.
18:02Yeah, he did.
18:03Adam Bob with Erwin Arnst Shyster, and Shyster is a little wobbly,
18:07as a slugfest is ensuing here on Monday Night Raw Live.
18:13Not a great deal of scientific wrestling here, coming off the rope.
18:16Over the hip, yes, nicely done.
18:17Adam Bob with a clothesline.
18:23Adam Bob with another clothesline, and IRS is stunned.
18:27Adam Bob with his bomb squad here.
18:33Uh-oh, here we go.
18:35Going up to the top rope, IRS maneuvering a part of Adam Bob.
18:38Wait a minute, there's that drilling.
18:41The Druid getting involved here.
18:45Behind the official's back, as Ted DiBiase distracted the cover.
18:50He got him.
18:52I missed it, what did you say?
18:55I was looking at this little idiom with a bird's beak crown on it.
18:57Yes, sir, you were.
18:58Here is your winner, IRS.
19:01Come on.
19:01Erwin Arnst Shyster.
19:06Whoever that is, that Druid.
19:11Obviously interfering in the matchup.
19:13And, come on.
19:15Hey, it might be the British Bulldog.
19:17Wait a minute, Lex Luger.
19:20Lex Luger is scheduled to enter on.
19:23What's he doing out here, McMahon?
19:25What's he doing out here?
19:26He's sticking his nose in some business that's not his.
19:29Obviously some uncalled for action after the match was officially over.
19:33And IRS is objecting vehemently to the presence of one Lex Luger,
19:39who is scheduled to wrestle here tonight live on Monday Night Raw.
19:43Lex Luger, Lex Luger, Lex Luger, Lex Luger.
19:47Lex Luger is going to be ready for action, and
19:50we're gonna be ready to see him in action here momentarily.
19:55Welcome back, everyone, to more Monday Night Raw.
19:58You saw what Lex Luger came in, thank goodness, in helping out Adam Bomb.
20:01Thank goodness.
20:02Like I said, stuck his nose where it didn't belong.
20:04He's liable to get it knocked off.
20:06I see.
20:07Speaking of not belonging, ladies and gentlemen, you won't believe what happened
20:10to Jerry The King Lawler at the Survivor Series.
20:12It was a riot, one of the funniest things ever in the history of the WWF for sure.
20:17But what wasn't so funny was what happened to you know who, Yokozuna.
20:22You're right, it wasn't funny at all.
20:24And Chuck Norris, ladies and gentlemen, the troubleshooting guest referee,
20:27he was there to make sure no one interfered in the casket match.
20:31As in the Royal Rumble, and Yokozuna, in his approach,
20:35he had that look in his eye like maybe he would not survive.
20:39No, that was a look of determination.
20:40And there was Paul Bearer and The Undertaker making their presence known.
20:45At the Survivor Series, there was an eerie, icy feeling almost.
20:49Bearer and San Antonio, the match ensuing, and
20:52The Undertaker in the casket first, but Yokozuna couldn't slam the lid.
20:55He couldn't get the lid shut.
20:57He couldn't win the match yet.
20:59The match progressed.
21:00Bundy and Bam Bam coming down, holding Chuck Norris at bay.
21:04And on the other side, behind Chuck Norris' back, Erwin Arsheister,
21:08as we said before, came in from behind The Undertaker,
21:12jumped him, put him to sleep, and stuffed him into the casket.
21:15However, Yokozuna couldn't get over to the casket soon enough.
21:19The Undertaker came back on Yokozuna, and talking about kickback.
21:25Cheap shot.
21:26Yes, there it was.
21:27Chuck Norris, the martial art expert, gave Double J something that he will always
21:32remember from the Survivor Series, a souvenir indeed.
21:35In the end, it was The Undertaker, victorious,
21:40as Paul Bearer held up high that urn, and The Undertaker earned a victory.
21:47Uh-huh.
21:49Making it victorious.
21:51Here comes the young man, hoping to be victorious this coming weekend.
21:55And the winner, Bob Smartplug Holly, he's hot, all right.
21:59Bob Smartplug Holly.
22:05His opponent, from New York City,
22:09weighing 244 pounds, Tony D'Amino.
22:14Tony D'Amino, the straight up against Bob Smartplug Holly.
22:19I'd like to get my hands on Smartplug Holly.
22:21I'd hit him so hard, he'd get arrested for speeding down here on Main Street and
22:24making a mistake in Poughkeepsie.
22:26Not very nice.
22:29Bob Smartplug Holly.
22:34An individual that's really making a name for himself as a lady here in the WWF.
22:37And D'Amino, his opponent, right back down to the canvas.
22:41Big fight by Bob Holly, and dropkick, nicely done.
22:47Hey, let me ask you a question, McMor, I mean, McMahon.
22:50I beg your pardon?
22:52I heard that Bob Smartplug Holly has entered some kind of powderpuff derby or
22:55something this weekend.
22:56No, no, no, not a powderpuff derby, rather.
22:59We're talking Bob Smartplug Holly, ladies and gentlemen.
23:01This weekend, participating in the 27th annual Skull Racing Snowball Derby
23:07in Pensacola, Florida.
23:09Matter of fact, the race that Mr.
23:11Holly is participating in takes place this Saturday, this Saturday night at 6 o'clock.
23:16Bob Smartplug- I think they named it after his chances.
23:19Snowball, you know.
23:21I see.
23:22Whoa, my goodness, DeVito coming in.
23:25He may not make it to the old Snowball Derby.
23:28And DeVito hammering away on Bob Holly.
23:32DeVito may put the skids on his career if he can get my grip.
23:36Bob Holly leading the WWF Racing Team, ladies and gentlemen,
23:40in action this Saturday night in Pensacola at the Snowball Derby.
23:44Holly now coming off the rope, and DeVito with the elbow.
23:47And I wonder what kind of condition Bob Holly's gonna be in this Saturday.
23:50And a cover, one, two, and a kick out.
23:53Bob Holly's crew chief, Laverne Fairlip, Jumbo Walker, gonna be there as well.
23:57Jumbo Walker?
23:58Yeah. Never heard of him.
24:01You're a riot.
24:02You're a riot.
24:04Gonna be in Pensacola this weekend watching the Snowball Derby?
24:08Well, you know, I might just venture down there for that.
24:10Bob Holly scooped up and slammed down to the canvas.
24:17DeVito off the rope and plants the elbow.
24:22Bob Holly.
24:26Well, Sparkplug might just get planted into a wall down there in Pensacola, too.
24:31Wouldn't that be nice?
24:32No, that would not be nice.
24:34And Bob Holly beginning an offense here.
24:42Off the rope, and elbow squirreling in the butt of the jaw of DeVito.
24:45I'll tell you what.
24:48What?
24:48The other racers should know, obviously, that Bob Holly, who's won many a race in
24:52his day, obviously has a temper.
24:54What you don't want to do is really get him angry.
24:56I think DeVito's done just about that.
24:58Whoa, wow.
24:59A kick to the head from the flat of the foot.
25:02Bob Holly will take a risk.
25:03He'll take a chance, just as he does with the raceway.
25:06Up high on the top rope.
25:08Bob Sparkplug.
25:08Look out, DeVito.
25:09And DeVito comes in.
25:12My goodness.
25:13That could do it.
25:14The cover, and the checkered flag is Bob Holly.
25:17Here is your winner, Bob Holly.
25:25Bob Holly.
25:28This Saturday night, participating in the Snowball Derby.
25:32Go get him, Bob Holly, the leader of the WWF Racing Team.
25:39You ever been on a racetrack?
25:41Yet to come, ladies and gentlemen, Big Daddy Kool.
25:44But up next, Rex Luger.
25:46Stay with us for more WWF action on Monday Night Raw.
25:52We're back.
25:53And obviously, Jerry Lawler, you've
25:54never been on a racetrack.
25:55But have you ever been down on the farm?
25:57What do you mean, down on the farm?
25:58Let's take you over to Henry Godwin, ladies and gentlemen,
26:01in Arkansas, down on his hog farm.
26:06Howdy.
26:06My name's Henry Godwin.
26:08I'm from Bitters, Arkansas.
26:09This here's my hog pen.
26:11And let me marry with him some of my hogs.
26:14Some folks thinks hogs is mean.
26:17They think they're ugly.
26:19And they think hogs are nasty.
26:21And they is.
26:23But the ugliest, meanest, nastiest hog of them all
26:27is me, Henry Godwin.
26:29And when I gets to the WWF, phew,
26:32I'm finally going to be in hog heaven.
26:35Rrrr.
26:35Rrrr.
26:36Rrr.
26:36Rrrr.
26:37Rrr.
26:37Rrr.
26:38Rrr.
26:38Rrr.
26:39Rrr.
26:39Rrr.
26:40Rrr.
26:40Rrr.
26:41Rrr.
26:41Rrr.
26:42Rrr.
26:42Rrr.
26:43Rrr.
26:43Rrr.
26:44Rrr.
26:44Rrr.
26:45Rrr.
26:45Rrr.
26:46Rrr.
26:46Rrr.
26:47Rrr.
26:47Rrr.
26:48Rrr.
26:48Rrr.
26:49Rrr.
26:49Rrr.
26:50Rrr.
26:50Rrr.
26:51What the hell?
26:52And to the ring, with his guest pull up armor,
26:55Stephen Coles, from the WWE Major League Wrestling.
26:58Here we go, big head to the ring by Flat Earth.
27:00Stephen Coles, just like you did when we saw him earlier on.
27:04Big smile from the kisser of Lex Luger,
27:07what a tremendous performance he gave at the WWF Survivor Series.
27:14Kurt Sentino.
27:16Kurt Sentino to try his luck against Lex Luger.
27:21I'd like to see you try your luck with Lex Luger.
27:26Yeah, I wouldn't mind it myself, McMahon.
27:27Yeah, I bet.
27:28Who's this little kid, who's this kid waving the flag here?
27:31That's a young man by the name of Steven Bowles.
27:34I guess all his cool clothes must be in the wash that he's wearing.
27:38You're not very kind.
27:39At least you're consistent.
27:40But you know, we are approaching the holiday season.
27:43Nice arm drag there by Lex, so- I can tell Thanksgiving was just over.
27:47Look at some of these morons here in the audience.
27:49Look at that guy over there.
27:51He's got so much food still in his teeth,
27:52Sally Struthers wants to send him to Africa.
27:54Try flossing, pal.
27:58Lex Luger quickly behind Burt Centeno reaching for the rope.
28:01And Lex Luger.
28:06Why won't he break the hold?
28:08He did.
28:10By the way, ladies and gentlemen, for the benefit of those of you who live in
28:13the Tampa, Florida area, or for anyone who enjoys participating live
28:18at the World Wrestling Federation pay-per-view events, I'd like to take this
28:22note that the Royal Rumble is gonna be held in Tampa in January.
28:26And the tickets, by the way, for the Royal Rumble go on sale this Saturday in Tampa.
28:33Is that really named after me?
28:34Ticketmaster, what?
28:36The Rumble, is it really named after me?
28:38No, I don't believe it was named after you at all.
28:42Centeno hauled right back out and again over the hip.
28:45Lex Luger.
28:49Nobody home there.
28:51And Burt Centeno would like to take a victory home here tonight.
29:02Speaking of victories, what about that victory by the Miami Dolphins?
29:05Did they make suckers out of the New York Jets or what?
29:07I didn't know you were a football fan.
29:10Are you kidding?
29:11Lex Luger, wow.
29:14And you can bet Lex Luger is gonna be participating in that Royal Rumble.
29:17As a matter of fact, we could very well be looking at the winner of the Royal Rumble.
29:21And remember, the person who wins the Royal Rumble faces the WWF
29:25champion at WrestleMania.
29:27However, Lex Luger, if in fact he's in the Rumble,
29:32he'll be one of 30 individuals.
29:35I wonder if you will be a king.
29:37I'd love to be there.
29:38Look at this.
29:39Centeno across the back.
29:40Lex Luger as he knocked up Rebel Rock.
29:44And Centeno wins no time insufficient.
29:49That was pretty impressive, McMahon.
29:53I agree with you there as well.
29:55There you go.
29:56Stephen Bowles, the fly bearer, has the privilege of waving the red, white, and
30:00blue for that man, that extraordinary athlete, a WWF superstar indeed, yes.
30:07He is certainly a part of the new World Wrestling Federation generation,
30:12Lex Luger.
30:12Ladies and
30:18gentlemen, would you please welcome
30:24the new World Wrestling Federation Champion,
30:30the one, the only, seven-foot, 300-foot pounds,
30:38Big Daddy Cool, the new WWF Champion, Diesel.
31:14All right, a standing
31:19ovation for you, Diesel.
31:24That must really make you feel great.
31:34Absolutely, absolutely.
31:36Thank you, thank you.
31:38All right, let's take you back to the Survivor Series, if we may.
31:42An unbelievable stellar performance, single-handedly,
31:48almost annihilating everyone else on the other team until Shawn Michaels decides
31:53he wants to get into the ring.
31:55And of course, we know what happened after that.
31:57I would suggest that was the straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak.
32:02We know we had a strategy where everybody was gonna go in on the Teamsters.
32:05We're gonna show what we had as a team.
32:08Somehow, when I got in, Shawn decided I would stay in.
32:13And when I started to run out of gas, or should I say diesel,
32:17Shawn decided it was time to stay in a little bit longer.
32:21I jackknifed Razor Ramon, now Shawn Michaels wants the tag.
32:27And we all know how much Shawn loves the spotlight, don't we?
32:32Yes, we do, we definitely know about that.
32:35But he didn't exactly get what he thought he was gonna get.
32:38As a matter of fact, we last saw him in his automobile getting out of town.
32:43Yeah, I got a message to you, Shawn Michaels, wherever you may be.
32:48That is, the Survivor Series, you might have got away.
32:54And I tell you, if I would have got my hands on you that night,
32:57you wouldn't have survived.
33:00Obviously, you did.
33:02You survived, as a matter of fact, since Shawn Michaels decided to
33:07dump the Tag Team Championship belt into the trash can.
33:10Obviously, there was a disillusionment of the Tag Team Championship combination with
33:14you and Shawn Michaels.
33:16Therefore, Jack Toney had to make a decision.
33:20With the Hitman Bret Hart temporarily out of action,
33:23you were named number one contender for
33:27your opportunity in Madison Square Garden.
33:32Tell us how that felt that day.
33:34Describe that day, if you would.
33:35Well, I woke up at 4 o'clock in the morning cuz I couldn't sleep.
33:39I was scheduled to fly in from Pittsburgh at about 8 o'clock.
33:43I took an earlier flight so I could get into the city.
33:45I took a cab from LaGuardia into the city and decided I'd walk the streets.
33:51Walked the streets of New York City and a person here and
33:54a person there wished me good luck.
33:56And as each person came to me and wished me good luck,
33:59I felt a little bit better about my chances.
34:02And as the day went on, after a couple of hundred people came up to me and said,
34:06hey, Big Daddy, do the job tonight at the garden.
34:09Bring home the gold, Big Daddy.
34:15Well, like Jackie Gleason says,
34:19how sweet it is because Big Daddy has got that gold.
34:24Yes, but I would suggest that, I would suggest you have not heard the last
34:30of the man who's the master of the cross face chicken wing, Bob Backlund.
34:35Hey, Bob, besides those bow ties, which I gotta say are quite stellar.
34:43Hey, you're a real wrestler, you're a real man, I respect you.
34:49If you get the cross wing chicken on me, hey,
34:52it might be trouble for Big D.
34:55But you know what, Bob?
34:57You gotta get it on me.
34:59You gotta get it on me.
35:00Whether or not that can be accomplished, I guess maybe time will tell.
35:06The Hitman Bret Hart is watching us tonight, temporarily laid up.
35:11As a matter of fact, we had him on the phone a few minutes ago.
35:15Any words for the Hitman?
35:17Well, I don't know Bret that well.
35:21I did combat with Bret in June at King of the Ring.
35:24It was 30 minutes of hell.
35:26The man is a great competitor.
35:28He was a true champion.
35:30I don't like the way Bret Hart's belt was taken from him.
35:34Because I think, I know, and everybody out there knows, that if they were waiting
35:38on Bret Hart to give up on his own, Survivor Series would be going on right now.
35:44I have to agree with you there.
35:47Now, I've been a champion for a few hours, a couple of days.
35:54It's all new to me.
35:56But if there's one thing I can do, one thing I can emulate from Bret
36:01the Hitman Hart, is I want to become, as he was, a fighting champion.
36:07Bret never.
36:08Yes, the fighting is champion of all time.
36:16Bret never turned down a challenge.
36:18I'm not real proud of the way I got mine, but
36:20he didn't turn it down when the time came.
36:23And Bret, enjoy that great family you have right now.
36:26Enjoy your time off.
36:28I'm sorry about the injury.
36:29But I'll tell you, as a man with my word and my hand out in front of you,
36:35anytime, anywhere, Bret Hart, you want a shot at this belt, brother, you got it.
36:41That's a promise from Big D.
36:42All right, any last words of wisdom?
36:50Let me think.
36:54On lives the new generation and the World Wrestling Federation.
37:02Yeah.
37:03There you have it, Big Daddy Cool,
37:06the new World Wrestling Federation Champion.
37:12Jeff Jarrett, Double J, the Motor Mouth from Music City.
37:22Got a real kick out of the Survivor Series.
37:25When he faces the battling Bret, he's gonna give new meaning to the term kickback.
37:31The British Bulldog.
37:32At the Survivor Series, he really wasn't able to unleash his fury.
37:36But against Double J, Jeff Jarrett, this canine is ready to provide the KO.
37:42Jeff Jarrett battles the British Bulldog next week here on Monday Night Raw.
37:49And not only that, big man, Double J has promised me that he's just made
37:55many honors with a song after his big victory here this week.
37:59Double J?
38:00That's right.
38:01You wouldn't care, though.
38:03You know what?
38:03You got the Van Gogh ear for music.
38:06You wouldn't appreciate his singing.
38:08Well, probably not because he probably doesn't sing all that well.
38:10I don't know.
38:12Just wait till next week.
38:13Really?
38:15The Heavenly Bodies, ladies and gentlemen.
38:17Set for tag team action here tonight live on Monday Night Raw.
38:22A tremendous pleasure to interview the new World Wrestling Federation Champion,
38:27Big Daddy Cool.
38:28And there you see, of course, Mr. Cornette.
38:36Did I hear Big Daddy Cool say that he would stick out his hand to shake hands
38:41with Bret and give him a match anytime he wanted it?
38:45Well, of course, that's what he said.
38:47Well, I'd suggest to the Hitman, don't try to shake it.
38:51That's what happened to Bob Backlund, Mr. Backlund.
38:53Hey, look at this.
38:55Here he comes.
38:56Mr. Backlund.
38:57Now, this is an honor, McMahon.
39:02Hey, wait a minute.
39:03Mr. Backlund, welcome to Monday Night Raw.
39:06I didn't know anyone invited you, but welcome nonetheless.
39:10Is it not all right that I'm here?
39:12Of course it is.
39:13Did you happen to hear the interview?
39:16I definitely did.
39:18And I tell that man, I'm gonna recover from adversity like nobody in
39:23the history of the WWF, all right?
39:26You know what that means, McMahon, recover from adversity?
39:30Am I gonna have to translate this for you?
39:31Does everybody have their dictionaries with them today?
39:33Well, I've got mine.
39:36All right, I'm sure you do, Mr. Backlund.
39:39Everybody, any intelligent person would have a dictionary within arm's
39:43length at all times.
39:44Yeah, but look at these morons.
39:45They might have one, but they couldn't read it, Bob.
39:47Well, Mr. Backlund, it seems to me that Big Daddy Cool
39:53was quite precious, actually, in that interview, almost humble.
39:57And Diesel made reference to the Hitman Bret Hart,
40:01giving him an opportunity to be the World Wrestling Federation Champion.
40:07And I'm sure that pleases Bret Hart, and I don't know how you feel about it.
40:11Well, at least he won't have to wait ten years.
40:14And as far as this interview, I remember when I used to be humble, and
40:18it didn't get me anyplace.
40:19I'm proud to be where I'm at, and I'm proud to be the way I am right now, so
40:24everybody in the world can catch up to me.
40:27I see.
40:28It was interesting in the interview that was conducted with you.
40:32Right after you won the title,
40:35you were talking about bringing morality back to the World Wrestling Federation.
40:38I'm gonna bring morality back to the whole world.
40:43Your champion, Diesel, this Neanderthal, talks about society.
40:48Well, what's good in society right now?
40:50Name me one thing.
40:52Children throwing people out of windows.
40:54Mothers killing their children.
40:56What kind of society is that?
40:59Obviously, we all- That's what I'm gonna change.
41:01That's what I stand for.
41:05Back in all difference, and I've known you for a long, long time.
41:10There are many who feel that you've gone over the edge.
41:14Hey, McMahon, watch out.
41:16No, I'm just telling you the way the fans feel.
41:18They feel like you have gone over the edge a bit mentally.
41:23I mean, there was an interview conducted in Madison Square Garden.
41:26I was told this.
41:27I wanna know if this is true or not.
41:28An interview conducted in Madison Square Garden after you lost the title, and
41:32the interviewer was asking you questions,
41:34you were responding as if the match hadn't even happened yet.
41:37You were talking about getting ready for the match.
41:40I mean, there was a mental blackout there for a moment, wasn't there?
41:43That was the biggest crisis in my life.
41:46And you know, I was at the library the other day, and I was reading Sigmund Freud.
41:50Sigmund Freud, does everybody know him?
41:52I do. He was the master of psychology.
41:54Exactly.
41:54And that can happen to people in a tragic situation.
42:00It was tragic for you.
42:01However, you did accomplish what you set out to accomplish.
42:04You did return to Madison Square Garden as the WWE Champion,
42:08as you promised, that you did, with a great deal of help,
42:13some would say, from Owen Hart.
42:16If there's anybody that can refute the things that I say, or the things that I do,
42:21I'll be happy to articulate with them in a manner that's respectful.
42:26And not the manner of some of the youth today, when you walk down the aisle and
42:30that language that flows out of their mouth, it's very embarrassing.
42:33All right, you have your opportunity, I'm sure,
42:38someday soon to win back the WWF Championship from Diesel.
42:41What sort of strategy are you going to have?
42:44I know this man like nobody.
42:46I've studied him, I know his mother's name, I know his birthday,
42:49I know where he's from, and I'm going to know everything about him.
42:53And I'm going to procure that chicken wing on him and destroy him.
42:58He should be exterminated from the WWF.
43:02Just like the Tyrannosaurus Rex was destroyed from this Earth.
43:07Promotional consideration paid for by the following.
43:12WWF Raw is War.
43:21All right, let's take you back, if you would.
43:22Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back.
43:24Let's show you this footage, Bob Backlund.
43:25Let's go back to Madison Square Garden.
43:26We can show you the whole match in its entirety.
43:28Here it is.
43:30The bell rings.
43:30I don't have to sit here and listen.
43:32Watch this.
43:32The worst thing that ever happened to my life.
43:35Why do we have to go over that again?
43:37Mr. Diesel Leanderthal is going to get the chicken wing
43:43sooner or later in the WWF.
43:47And McMahon, before I retire, before I retire from the WWF,
43:52I'm going to procure the chicken wing on you too.
43:56Hey, let me give him a standing ovation.
44:04I'd like to see that right now.
44:05Come back, Mr. Backlund.
44:06Well, what do you say about that, McMahon?
44:11I'm speechless, actually.
