The Casket for the Casket Match is set up at ringside before the match. Fatu attacks Taker as the Dead man enters the ring, but Taker is able to fight back and take control of the situation. Several times in the match Yokozuna helps Fatu without the referee seeing it, Fatu tries to put Taker away, but Taker even kicks out of a Superfly Splash!!! Finally the Undertaker has Fatu on the ropes and hits a chokeslam!!! Taker runs his thumb across his throat signaling he is going to take Fatu out with the Tombstone when Yokozuna grabs Taker by the foot and drags him out of the ring drawing the DQ!!!
WINNER: THE UNDERTAKER BY DQ!
Taker and Yokozuna are fighting on the outside of the ring, Fatu isn’t moving inside the ring. Taker starts to get the better of Yokozuna, he drags the big man over to the casket and opens it, preparing to throw Yokozuna in when HEADSHRINKER SAMU POPS OUT!!! WE HAVEN’T SEEN SAMU IN A MONTH SINCE TAKER DEFEATED HIM AND STUFFED HIM IN A CASKET!!!! Samu starts to attack the Undertaker and soon Fatu and Yokozuna join in. They beat the Undertaker down and toss Paul Bearer aside, Vince says it looks like a street mugging!!!
They then throw Undertaker into the casket and slam the lid shut!!!! But right after they do smoke starts to billow out of the casket!!!! Yokozuna and The Headshrinkers have no idea what’s going on, finally the smoke stops. Yokozuna orders Fatu to open the casket and when he does, THE UNDERTAKER ISN’T INSIDE!!!! Yokozuna and the Headshrinkers are beyond freaked out by this!!! Even Heenan is a bit leery about what is happening. Vince then sends us to footage of last week when WWF Champion Big Van Vader put Bret Hart through the announce table with a Powerbomb!!! After the footage plays Vince sends us to the back and Jim Ross who is with the European Champion, The British Bulldog for a word on his brother in law’s condition.
Jim Ross asks the Bulldog if he has had any word on Bret, Davey says that Bret has finally been allowed to fly and even though he wanted to be here on Raw, the doctors wouldn’t let him, so Bret is at home in Calgary and he’ll be back soon, and he’ll be here for Wrestlemania XI and his shot at the WWF Title, but Bulldog tells Bret he knows he is watching, and he is sorry but there may not be allot of Vader left for Wrestlemania because Bulldog has a non title match with him here on Raw next week!! Bulldog says he’ll try and leave a little for Bret!! Suddenly the interview is interrupted by Owen Hart and Jim Neidhardt!! Owen says he is tired of hearing about Bret, what he wants to hear about is how he, Owen Hart, pinned the British Bulldog the European Champion right here last week. Owen says by rights the European Title should be his!!! The Bulldog says if Owen wants a shot at the title, he can have it, anytime, any place!! Owen says if that’s the case he wants the shot HERE TONIGHT!!!! THE BULLDOG SAYS OWEN IS ON!!!! HERE TONIGHT ON RAW!!! BULLDOG VS OWEN WITH THE EUROPEAN TITLE ON THE LINE!!!!!!!!!!

SLAM OF THE WEEK: Clips of Hogan hitting Steve Austin with a chair last week then Ahmed Johnson hitting Austin with the Pearl River Plunge for the three count, Hogan handing the IC Title to Ahmed and raising his hand!!
HULK HOGAN VS. RAD RADFORD
Let’s get this straight, Rad Radford is an accomplished wrestler, and is a great brawler and technician, he could probably hold titles in other promotions, but here? Hogan simply outclasses him. Radford gets some shots in, but not much as Hogan steamrolls him and pins him after the Big Boot and Leg Drop!
WINNER: HULK HOGAN
Hogan doesn’t get the chance to break into his post match pose down though because “STONE COLD” STEVE AUSTIN COMES THROUGH THE CROWD, CHAIR IN HAND!!! AUSTIN LETS THE CHAIR FLY AND SCRAMBLES HOGAN’S BRAINS!!!!! AUSTIN IS STOMPING A MUDHOLE IN HOGAN!!!! REFEREE JIMMY KORDARIS TRIES TO PULL AUSTIN AWAY AND EATS A STONE COLD STUNNER FOR HIS TROUBLES!!!!!!! AS AUSTIN CONTINUES TO BEAT ON HOGAN SECURITY GUARDS FROM THE BACK RUSH TO THE RING!!! THEY TACKLE AUSTIN AND FORCE HIM TO THE GROUND!!!! THEY HAVE TO HANDCUFF AUSTIN AND ARE DRAGGING HIM, KICKING OUT OF THE RING AND BACK TO THE LOCKER ROOM!!!!
Vince is at total loss for words, he sends us to the back and Jim Ross!! Ross is standing with WWF CEO Shane McMahon, who is telling the Security Guards to take Austin out of the building!!! Shane tells Ross that he can’t let this go on any longer, its disrupting the WWF too much and it is happening every week, plus it is bringing them bad press when they need to rebuild the WWF’s image. Shane says as of this moment, Steve Austin will no longer be facing Ahmed Johnson for the Intercontinental Title at Wrestlemania XI, no he will be facing Hulk Hogan INSIDE A 15 FOOT HIGH STEEL CAGE!!!! Shane says he hopes those two beat the hell out of each other and finally put an end to this!!!!
As far as Ahmed Johnson, he will still have to defend the Intercontinental Title at Wrestlemania, and we’ll find out who over the next two weeks! Next week we’ll have two qualifying matches and the winner of those matches will face each other two weeks from today, with the winner going to Wrestlemania to challenge Ahmed Johsnon!!!!!
COMMERCIAL 9:30-9:32
WWF CHAMPION BIG VAN VADER VS. ROCKY MAIVIA
Vince and Heenan are both in shock over Shane’s announcement of the cage match at Wrestlemania, and they both agree Austin is going to be angry at losing his title rematch. The rookie sensation Rocky Maivia may not have allot of experience, but he more than makes up for it in heart and he takes the fight right too Vader. One day, Rocky’s time will come, but it’s not today. Try as he might Rocky just doesn’t have what it takes to put the WWF Champion down here tonight and he falls to the Vader Bomb!
WINNER: WWF CHAMPION BIG VAN VADER
Vader walks over to the announce table and throws the WWF Title belt on it in front of Vince and Heenan, he says he’s the man, and no one can stop him, he says that Bret Hart better stay in Calgary with his old lady if he wants to continue walking. Vader says IT’S VADER TIME and then storms off!!!
30 SECOND PROMOTIONAL CONSIDERATION
THE GODWINNS W/HILLBILLY JIM VS. TYPHOON AND PAT TANAKA
As the Godwinns prepare to face the Smoking Gunns at Wrestlemania, they face a former WWF Tag Team Champion in Typhoon and veteran Pat Tanaka here tonight!!! When Typhoon is in the ring he is able to get some shots in on the Godwinns, but it’s not enough and Phineas puts Pat Tanaka away with the Slop Drop. During the match, The Smoking Gunns make their way down to ringside, WITH A PIG?!?!?! Billy tells Heenan it’s a “gift” for the Godwinns.
WINNERS: THE GODWINNS
The Smoking Gunns get in the ring, dragging the pig along, they say it is a gift for The Godwinns, obviously they must have somehow crossed the line last week when talking about the Godwinns inbreed, ugly and illiterate family, so here is a way to make up for it. Bart hands the rope for the pig to Phineas and tells Phineas to make sure and “use protection”!!!! The Godwinns lose it and attack the Gunns right there!!! They send the Gunns flying out of the ring and the Champions don’t look much like Champions after that!!!
COMMERCIAL 9:45-9:9:47
EUROPEAN CHAMPION DAVEY BOY SMITH VS. OWEN HART W/JIM NEIDHARDT
Action packed, fast paced battle between the two superstars. Neither man is able to get an advantage and they have 2 dozen near falls throughout the match between them. The finish sees Bulldog roll Owen into the ring only to be attacked from behind by Big Van Vader!!!! Owen Hart keeps referee Earl Hebner’s attention as Vader whips Bulldog into the steel steps and then backs up the aisle to the locker room. Vader stands and watches at the top of the aisle as Owen rolls Davey into the ring and locks the Sharpshooter on. Davey tries to power out multiple times, and tries to drag himself across the ring to the other side and reach the ropes, but he just can’t do it. Davey finally passes out in the Sharpshooter after trying to power out one last time, giving the win and the European Title to Owen Hart!!!!
WINNER: AND NEW EUROPEAN CHAMPION OWEN HART
Owen celebrates in the ring while Hebner checks with Davey, Vince wonders what kind of condition Davey will be in next week against Vader? Vince tells us not to miss Raw next week, as not only will The Bulldog and Vader mix it up, but we’ll have the two qualifying matches to decide who will face Ahmed Johnson for the Intercontinental Title at Wrestlemania will be, plus Yokozuna and The Headshrinkers will face Men on a Mission and Rocky Maivia!!!

Men on a Mission ended the Headshrinkers last run with the WWF Tag Titles back on Christmas Eve, and there is still some lingering hatred between the two teams. Big dust up to start, but it settles down with Maivia playing your face in peril. The Headshrinkers take their time beating Maivia down. Maivia catches a break when he somehow finds the ability to roll out of the way of a Superfly Splash by Fatu. Maivia then makes the hot tag to Mabel who comes in and starts wearing the Headshrinkers out!!! He drops Samu with a big belly to belly suplex and tags out to Mo, they attempt a rocket launcher but Samu gets his knees up!! Samu then makes the tag to Yokozuna who drops Mo with a belly to belly of his own and follows it up with a leg drop for the three count and the win!!
WINNERS: YOKOZUNA AND THE HEADSHRINKERS

They leave it at ringside and Yokozuna rushes to it, you can tell he is fed up with all these games and he rips the casket open, only to promptly fall backward on his ass when he sees himself in the casket, a full mannequin that looks just like Yokozuna is a suit, arms crossed is lying in the casket!!!!

The Smoking Gunns insult Jim and the Godwinns calling them cowards and calling Jim a coward, they keep running down the family until Jim smacks Billy in the mouth and clotheslines Bart down!!!! Jim throws Bart through the ropes and tells Jimmy Kordaris to ring the bell!!!
HILLBILLY JIM VS. BILLY GUNN
Jim is all over Billy, he hits some stiff clotheslines, throws him into the corner and hits the Hillbilly Splash, before he can do much else Bart jumps in the ring and blasts Jim from behind drawing the DQ!!
WINNER: HILLBILLY JIM BY DQ
The Gunns double team and beat down Jim!!! They then drop him on his head with a spike piledriver!!!! Jim is convulsing in the ring and Billy says to do it one more time, just then the Godwinns, clothes torn and faces bloodied come running down to the ring to break it all up. The Godwinns look they have been put through the ringer. Vince says all of this was a set up, Heenan is getting a good laugh out of all of it!! Vince then sends us to the back and Jim Ross who is with WWF Champion Big Van Vader.
Ross says that he was preparing for this interview when The Godwinns came running past him, he doesn’t know what happened but it looked like someone must have jumped them. Ross asks Vader about tonight’s match with the British Bulldog and Bret’s presence. Vader says Bret should have listened to him, Bret should have stayed in Calgary with his old lady because Vader says he will destroy Bret at Wrestlemania, he is glad Bret will have an eye on the match because he wants Bret to watch, watch very closely because what he is going to do to The Bulldog tonight is just a FRACTION of what he is going to do to Bret at Wrestlemania!
Back at ringside, Vince says that Henry Godwinn told him that someone jumped them in the back, they didn’t see who did it, but they have a pretty good idea.
LEX LUGER W/MISS ELIZABETH VS. “PSYCHO” SID VICIOUS
Sid and Luger are no strangers to each other and have met several times in the past year. They brawl all over the ring, Luger tries to get Sid in the Torture Rack but struggles to get him up. The finishes sees Sid hit the big boot, followed by a chokeslam on Luger to get the three count after 8 minutes of intense brawling to advance to face the winner of the Marc Mero-Bob Backlund match next week for a shot at the Intercontinental Title at Wrestlemania!
WINNER: SID VICIOUS
COMMERCIAL 9:30-9:32
Vince is seated at ringside and brings in a split screen, on one side is “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, on the other is Hulk Hogan. Vince says he feels it is in everyone’s best interests to conduct this interview with the two men in separate rooms. Vince first asks Hogan how he is doing after Austin’s attack last week. Austin interrupts before Hogan can say anything and says no one gives a damn about how Hogan is doing. Austin says no one asked how he was doing, no one cared when Hogan wrapped a chair around his head and cost him the Intercontinental Championship two weeks ago, but everyone cried and whined when Austin paid Hogan back last week.
Vince asks Austin why this animosity, how did this war get this out of control. Austin says that all you gotta do is look right at Hogan, because everything he has done from putting The Ultimate Warrior out of the WWF to dropping Roddy Piper on his broken neck is all Hogan’s fault! Austin says Hogan got in his way on Christmas Eve when Hogan cost him the chance to be #30 in the Royal Rumble, then when Austin threw Hogan’s sorry piece of trash out of the ring at the Rumble, Hogan reached in, pulled him out and cost him the Rumble match!!!
Vince asks Hogan about the Steel Cage and if this is the kind of thing that needs to happen in order to end this war. Hogan says the Steel Jungle changes men brother, and when he is done with Austin in the cage dude, Austin won’t want to ever face Hogan again. Austin says that’s where Hogan is wrong, because it’ll never be over, win, lose or draw the only way this thing ever ends is one of them being taken out of the ring and out of wrestling for good!!!! Hogan tells Austin if that’s what it takes he can get just as down and dirty as Austin can, Austin says Hogan doesn’t have what it takes to take him out, Hogan is too busy being worried about all those snot nosed punk Hulkamaniac brats to do what it takes, Austin says Hogan is going to have to kill him to stop him and that’s the bottom line, Hogan will never be rid of Austin as long as one of them is still breathing.
Hogan gets pissed he starts yelling that Austin has no idea what he is capable of, Hogan stands up and says at Wrestlemania he is going to show Austin just what happens when you get locked in the cage with Hulk Hogan, Austin launches into a profanity laced tirade and Hogan is yelling back at him when Vince kills the interview.
30 SECOND PROMOTIONAL CONSIDERATION
Vince says he doesn’t know what is going to happen at Wrestlemania in the cage match, Heenan says he does, Hulkamania is finally going to die once and for all and he can’t wait!!!!
”WILDMAN” MARC MERO VS. BOB BACKLUND
Mero and Backlund have a decent mat wrestling battle to start, while that is going on Vince brings in the split screen with Intercontinental Champion Ahmed Johnson who is watching the match on a monitor in the back, Vince congratulates Ahmed on being the first African American Intercontinental Champion, and asks Ahmed if he has a preference to face Marc Mero, Sid Vicious or Bob Backlund, Ahmed says he does not, he’ll defend the title against all three of them if that’s what he needs to do. Ahmed says he isn’t afraid to fight anyone or defend the title against anyone and at Wrestlemania he’ll face anyone they put in his way. Back in the ring Mero beats Backlund back and then lands the Shooting Star Press on Backlund to get a measure of revenge for Backlund’s attack a couple of weeks ago and to advance to face Sid Vicious next week with the winner of that match going to Wrestlemania to battle Ahmed Johnson!!!
WINNER: MARC MERO
COMMERCIAL 9:45-9:9:47
Before the Main Event begins, Bret “The Hitman” Hart comes down to ringside and joins the commentary team.
WWF CHAMPION BIG VAN VADER VS. THE BRITISH BULLDOG
Anything but a technical masterpiece, these two just lay into each other!!! Vader normally mauls his opponents early, but that isn’t the case here as Davey fights right back in a stiff brawl. The two beat the holy hell out of each other until Vader is able to take control and hit a Vader Bomb on The Bulldog, but somehow, Smith kicks out at two!!! Vader is so pissed that he DECKS REFEREE JIMMY KORDARIS!!!!! Vader starts to smack the snot out of Davey in the corner, Bret has had enough and jumps into the ring to save his brother in law!!! Vader and Bret brawl with Bret beating Vader back and then dropkicking him out of the ring!!! Bret doesn’t stop there and tries for a slingshot plancha, but VADER CATCHES HIM!!!

It’s THE SLAM JAM with Michael Hayes: Hayes says we are ONE WEEK away from Wrestlemania!!! First of course he puts over the WWF Title Match, as Bret Hart will try and regain the WWF Title from Big Van Vader!!! He quickly jumps into footage from Monday Night Raw where The Smoking Gunns beat up Hillbilly Jim. We then get comments from the Godwinns, who are without their uncle. Henry says Jim was beat up pretty darn bad, and that he and Phineas were jumped by someone in the back before their match and that’s why they weren’t out there. Henry says that as much as they want the WWF Tag Titles, they want The Smoking Gunns blood that much more and that’s what they are coming for at Wrestlemania XI. The WWF Tag Champions then get a turn to speak, and they are pretty proud of themselves for what they did to the old Hillbilly, they say that they also pretty much take credit for attacking the Godwinns in the back. The Gunns say that they are guaranteeing that they will leave Wrestlemania XI with the WWF Tag Team Titles.
Next Hayes talks about the European Title match between new Champion Owen Hart and his brother in law, the former Champion Davey Boy Smith, The British Bulldog.

During the match we see that Ahmed Johnson is standing in the back watching a monitor and the match unfold. Mero hits some big moves during the match including a sommersault pescado and a picture perfect moonsault press, but he is unable to put big Sid down. Mero ends up catch a big boot flush to the mush, though he kicks out of one chokeslam, and then barley kicks out of a second chokeslam after he is driven into the mat by a powerbomb, Mero just can’t fight back anymore and is pinned by Sid in the middle of the ring.

Ross tells Bret that he may have gotten the upper hand last week, but he may have also awoken something in Vader that Bret may not be able to deal with. Bret says Vader is nothing but a bully, sure he is big, he is tough and he is dangerous, but Bret has never backed down from a bully and he isn’t about to start doing so now! Bret says that he has heard Vader for week telling people he is going to break Bret in half, well tonight Vader is going to get his chance, but he says Vader won’t be able to do it, just like he won’t be able to put him doqn at Wrestlemania. Bulldog then talks about Owen Hart having something that belongs to him, the European Title and Davey says that at Wrestlemania he is going to take it back, just then Hulk Hogan walks into the picture.
He and Bret have a stare down for a second before Hogan offers his hand, and Bret shakes it. Hogan says he wishes Bret all the luck in the world in regaining the WWF Title, but tonight they need to focus on the big 8 man tag match!

WWF TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS THE SMOKING GUNNS VS. TECHNO TEAM 2000
Travis and Troy came into the WWF with a pretty hot hand, but it has been getting progressively cooler in the last several weeks, ever since they lost a non title match to the Smoking Gunns on Wrestling Challenge, in perhaps a bid to reverse the curse the Technos threw everything they had at the Gunns quickly. During the match Vince conducts a split screen interview with the Godwinns where they once again confirm that it was the Smoking Gunns who attacked them in the back last week. Henry says Hillbilly Jim ain’t in the greatest of shape right now cause of what the Gunns did to him. Phineas says they will win the tag belts for their uncle, Henry simply says that they are going to Wrestlemania to give the Smoking Gunns the ass whopping of a lifetime!!! Back in the ring The Gunns have taken control of the match and after hitting a sidewinder on Travis, Billy makes the cover and gets the three count and the win!
WINNER:THE SMOKING GUNNS
Heenan calls the replay of the finish and puts the Smoking Gunns over as his kind of cowboys, Vince then sends us backstage to Jim Ross who is with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. Austin does not look happy at all when we cut to the back, Ross asks about George Foreman being the guest ring enforcer for his cage match with Hulk Hogan, Austin says it’s just the WWF stacking the deck against him once again. Austin says it don’t matter who they put out there to help Hulk Hogan, cause when that door closes it’s just going to be Hogan and Austin and Austin ain’t gonna stop beating on Hogan till he ain’t nothing but a bloody and broken pile of trash in the ring. As far as tonight’s match goes, he warns his partners just to stay out of his damn way, he doesn’t care what happens to them, he doesn’t care what happens in the match, all he care about is getting his hands on Hogan.
This brings in Yokozuna who is flanked on each side by one of the Headshrinkers. Yokozuna asks Austin to repeat what he just said, Austin insults Yokozuna’s intelligence and weight then repeats that he doesn’t give a damn about his partners tonight. Yokozuna says maybe Austin needs to be taught a lesson, Yoko says he’s all about going out there and crushing the Undertaker tonight, but he doesn’t need Austin to do that. The Headshrinkers start to move in and Austin tells them if they want to get their asses kicked to go on an make a move, officials quickly appear to get in between Yokozuna and Austin as Vince questions how in the world anyone could ever team with Austin??

Ross mentions that Austin and Yokozuna don’t seem to be getting along, Owen says that’s fine that he and Vader can take care of their opponents tonight themselves, just like they are going to take care of them at Wrestlemania, Owen says when Vader is done with Bret at Wrestlemania there won’t be much left, but Owen says Bret shouldn’t worry because Owen will finish Bret off for his own good.
