GREG “THE HAMMER” VALENTINE
VS.
JOHNNY B BADD
The match starts with a lock-up in the center of the ring. Valentine uses his strength to push Badd into the corner. The referee calls for a clean break, but Valentine delivers a sneaky chop to Badd's chest. Badd, not one to back down, responds with a series of quick jabs, causing Valentine to retreat to the ropes. Badd whips Valentine into the ropes and nails him with a dropkick, sending "The Hammer" to the mat. Badd follows up with a quick leg drop and goes for an early pin. Valentine kicks out at two. Undeterred, Badd pulls Valentine to his feet and delivers a snap suplex.
Valentine, feeling the pressure, rolls out of the ring to regroup. Badd, not wanting to give his opponent any breathing room, follows him to the outside with a somersault plancha!!!!!! Badd lands a few punches before tossing Valentine back into the ring. As Badd climbs back in, Valentine catches him with a knee to the midsection, slowing down his momentum!! Valentine takes control, targeting Badd's leg to set up for the Figure-Four Leglock. He stomps on Badd's knee repeatedly, trying to weaken his opponent.

COMMERCIAL BREAK
Jim Ross: Fans, recently the WWF was sent a video from Brutus “The Barber” Beefcake, but he doesn’t want to be called by that name anymore, it seems the Barber has transformed into THE BOOTY MAN?!?!??!!?
The video opens with a flashy, neon-lit gym setting. The camera pans over various pieces of exercise equipment, with energetic music playing in the background. The gym is filled with posters of Brutus Beefcake in various poses, now stylized with a new, flamboyant look. The camera zooms in on a large mirror where Brutus Beefcake, now known as "The Booty Man," is flexing his muscles and admiring himself. Next to him stands a woman wearing a glittering, glamorous outfit. They both have confident, almost arrogant expressions.
The Booty Man: "Well, well, well, look who’s ready to get a makeover! The Booty Man is here, and I’ve brought the hottest sensation in the WWF, The Booty Babe! Together, we’re gonna whip this place into shape!"
The Booty Man flexes his muscles again, striking a pose as the camera pans to The Booty Babe, who smirks confidently.
The Booty Babe: "That’s right, Booty Man! We’re not just here to change the look of the WWF; we’re here to dominate it. We’re here to show everyone what real perfection looks like!"
The Booty Man: "You see, I’m bringing a whole new level of style and substance to the ring. The Booty Man is not just about looks, but about power, precision, and a whole lot of attitude!"
The Booty Babe: "And with me, The Booty Babe, by his side, we’re an unstoppable force. We’re gonna take down anyone who stands in our way and make sure they know who the true stars of the WWF are!"
The Booty Man: "So, listen up, WWF! We’re coming for the titles, the fame, and the glory. And there’s nothing anyone can do about it. We’re gonna reshape this federation and show everyone what it means to be at the top. Get ready, because The Booty Man and The Booty Babe are here to take over!"
The Booty Babe: "Get ready to witness the transformation of a lifetime. The Booty Man and The Booty Babe are on a mission, and we’re not stopping until we’ve whipped everyone into shape!"
The Booty Man: "The Booty Man and The Booty Babe are here, and we’re ready to bring the heat. The WWF will never be the same again. Believe that!"
The video ends with The Booty Man and The Booty Babe posing together, exuding confidence and determination as the screen fades to black.
Ted Dibiase: You know Jim Ross, I was never a fan of Brutus Beefcake, but the Booty Man? I like the new attitude.
Jim Ross: Give me a break!!! I used to be friends with Beefcake, but this new attitude, IT STINKS!!!!!! Fans, lets go to the ring for our next match!!!
Howard Finkel: "Ladies and gentlemen, the following six-man tag team contest is scheduled for one fall with a 10-minute time limit! Introducing first, the team of 2 Cold Scorpio, and the Hollywood Blondes, Steve Austin and Brian Pillman!"
Scorpio and the Hollywood Blondes make their way to the ring, with Austin and Pillman are cocky as hell as Scorpio follows behind them.
Howard Finkel: "And their opponents, the team of the 1-2-3 Kid and The Smoking Gunns, Billy and Bart Gunn!"
1-2-3 Kid and The Smoking Gunns rush to the ring, high fiving the fans on their way down the aisle!
THE HOLLYWOOD BLONDES & 2 COLD SCORPIO
VS.
THE SMOKING GUNNS & 1-2-3 KID
The match begins with 2 Cold Scorpio and 1-2-3 Kid squaring off. They start with a series of fast-paced exchanges, including arm drags and dropkicks, showcasing their agility and athleticism. The crowd is firmly behind the 1-2-3 Kid, who gets the upper hand with a spinning heel kick. 1-2-3 Kid tags in Billy Gunn, who continues the momentum with a few powerful clotheslines and a suplex on Scorpio. Scorpio fights back with a jawbreaker and makes the tag to Steve Austin. Austin enters the ring and immediately takes control with stiff punches and a knee to Billy Gunn's midsection.
Austin tags in Brian Pillman, who executes a snapmare followed by a running dropkick to Billy Gunn's face. Pillman taunts the crowd, soaking in their boos, before attempting a pin. Billy Gunn kicks out at two and fights back with a surprise roll-up, but Pillman kicks out. Billy Gunn makes the hot tag to Bart Gunn, who comes in like a house of fire, taking down Pillman and Austin with big right hands. Bart hits a sidewalk slam on Pillman and covers him, but Austin breaks up the pin. This leads to a brawl with all six men in the ring.
The referee restores order, and the match continues with Bart Gunn and Steve Austin now the legal men. Austin uses dirty tactics to regain control, including a thumb to the eye and a choke on the ropes. Austin tags Scorpio back in, who hits a springboard splash for a near fall. Scorpio and Austin double-team Bart Gunn, isolating him in their corner. Scorpio hits a moonsault for another near fall. Bart Gunn manages to escape and tags in the 1-2-3 Kid, who comes in with high-flying moves, including a diving crossbody on Scorpio.
The action becomes chaotic again with all six men brawling inside and outside the ring. The Hollywood Blondes and The Smoking Gunns brawl to the outside, leaving 2 Cold Scorpio and 1-2-3 Kid in the ring. Scorpio hits a spinning kick, but 1-2-3 Kid reverses a suplex attempt into a small package for a near fall.
With the match reaching its climax, Austin and Pillman, frustrated and realizing they might lose, suddenly walk away from the match, abandoning Scorpio. The Smoking Gunns chase them up the ramp, but they disappear backstage. Scorpio, bewildered, turns around and gets hit with a spinning heel kick from 1-2-3 Kid, who then climbs to the top rope and hits a Moonsault. 1-2-3 Kid covers Scorpio for the pin.
WINNERS: THE SMOKING GUNNS & 1-2-3 KID
The crowd erupts in cheers as 1-2-3 Kid and The Smoking Gunns celebrate their victory in the ring. Scorpio looks frustrated and betrayed as he watches from the mat.
Jim Ross: "What an incredible match and what a victory for the 1-2-3 Kid and The Smoking Gunns! But what was that about with the Hollywood Blondes walking away?"
Ted Dibiase: "It's called strategy, Ross! Austin and Pillman are always thinking two steps ahead. But tonight, it backfired on them!"
Jim Ross: Don’t go anywhere, we will be right back with more MONDAY NIGHT RAW!!!!
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Jim Ross: Welcome back to Monday Night Raw, I understand that our broadcast colleague Sweet Stan Lane is standing by with the Hollywood Blondes!
Stan Lane: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with the Hollywood Blondes, Brian Pillman and Steve Austin. Gentlemen, I have to ask, what just happened, what were you thinking when you abandoned your partner, 2 Cold Scorpio, leaving him to fend for himself. The fans and everyone in the locker room want to know, why did you do it?"
Brian Pillman: (laughs) "Why did we do it, Stan? It's simple. 2 Cold Scorpio was dead weight. He couldn't keep up with the Hollywood Blondes. We're not here to carry anyone; we're here to win titles and make money."
Steve Austin: "That's right, Stan. Scorpio was holding us back. We're the future of this business. We're the hottest thing going, and we don't need anyone dragging us down. So, we did what we had to do. We cut the dead weight."
As the Blondes continue to bad-mouth Scorpio, 2 Cold Scorpio suddenly appears, looking angry. He marches right up to the Blondes.
2 Cold Scorpio: "You got something to say to my face, Austin? Pillman? Why'd you leave me hanging out there?"
Brian Pillman: (sneering) "You want answers, Scorpio? You couldn't hack it. You were slowing us down, plain and simple. We don't owe you anything."
Steve Austin: "Yeah, and if you can't handle that, maybe you should find a new line of work."
Scorpio gets right in their faces, clearly not backing down.
2 Cold Scorpio: "You think you can just throw me under the bus and walk away? I don't think so. You owe me a fight!"
The tension escalates, and suddenly, the Blondes jump Scorpio. They start beating him down, with Pillman throwing punches and Austin stomping on him.
Stan Lane: "Hey, come on, guys! This isn't necessary!"
Just as the beating intensifies, 1-2-3 Kid rushes into the scene wielding a steel chair. He swings the chair, forcing Austin and Pillman to back off and eventually flee the scene.
1-2-3 Kid: "Get out of here, you cowards! Come on, you want to fight someone, fight me!"
The Hollywood Blondes back off, shouting threats but not daring to approach as 1-2-3 Kid stands protectively over Scorpio, chair in hand. The Blondes retreat down the corridor, glaring at Kid.
Jim Ross: "What a chaotic scene! It looks like 2 Cold Scorpio and the 1-2-3 Kid have found some common ground here. Let’s go back up to the ring as the Model Rick Martel is going to be in action!!!!
Howard Finkel: "Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 10-minute time limit! Introducing first, from Tampa, Florida, weighing in at 232 pounds, Barry Horowitz!"
Horowitz waves to the crowd from the ring as the music hits!
Howard Finkel: "And his opponent, from Cocoa Beach, Florida, weighing in at 234 pounds, Rick 'The Model' Martel!"
Martel struts to the ring, spraying his signature cologne "Arrogance" and taunting the fans with his conceited demeanor.
BARRY HOROWITZ
VS.
RICK “THE MODEL” MARTEL
The match starts with Martel immediately taking control, using his technical prowess to outmaneuver Horowitz. Martel delivers a series of quick arm drags, followed by a headlock takedown. Horowitz tries to fight back, but Martel cuts him off with a knee to the midsection and a snapmare. Martel continues to dominate, hitting Horowitz with a backbreaker and then posing for the crowd, drawing boos. Horowitz seizes the moment with a roll-up, but Martel kicks out at two. Martel, looking irritated, responds with a clothesline that damn near takes Horowitz head off. Martel then locks in a Boston Crab in the center of the ring. Horowitz struggles but eventually taps out, unable to withstand the pain of Martel's submission hold.
WINNER: RICK “THE MODEL” MARTEL
Martel celebrates his victory, arrogantly posing and spraying more "Arrogance" cologne around the ring.
Jim Ross: Rick Martel with a new, killer attitude!!! He has always been arrogant but now he has a vicious streak that----
Suddenly, Diesel's music hits as Diesel rides a Harley Davidson down to the ring!!!!
Jim Ross: BUSINESS IS ABOUT TO PICK UP!!! BIG DADDY COOL IS IN THE BUILDING!!!!
Diesel dismounts the Harley and enters the ring!!! He immediately delivers a devastating Jackknife to Barry Horowitz, who was just starting to recover. He then turns his attention to Rick Martel, who tries to attack but is quickly overpowered and Jackknifed as well. Diesel grabs a microphone and stands over the fallen bodies of Martel and Horowitz.
Diesel: "Big Daddy Cool is IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is just a taste of what’s coming. I’ve dominated everyone in my path, and now, it's time for Big Daddy Cool to get a taste of GOLD!!! Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Razor Ramon or Cactus Jack it doesn’t matter who has the belt – Diesel is coming for it, and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop me!"
Diesel drops the mic, standing tall over Martel and Horowitz as his music plays!!!!
Jim Ross: "By God, what a statement by Diesel! Who can stop this man?"
Ted Dibiase: "I don’t know, Ross, but whoever holds that title better watch their back because Diesel means business!"
Jim Ross: “That’s for damn sure. Fans, in the 70’s no Superstar made an impact quite like the High Chief Peter Maivia, well the legacy continues as a new High Chief makes his way to the World Wrestling Federation!!!!”
The video opens with stunning aerial shots of the Hawaiian Islands, showcasing lush landscapes, volcanic mountains, and pristine beaches. Traditional Hawaiian music plays softly in the background. The camera pans to a secluded beach where Headshrinker Fatu, dressed in traditional Samoan attire, stands solemnly. In the background, waves crash against the shore, and the sun begins to set, casting a golden hue over the scene.
Narrator: "In the heart of the Pacific, where the legacy of warriors and chiefs is etched into the land, a new chapter begins. Headshrinker Fatu has traveled back to his ancestral homeland to embrace his destiny."
The camera focuses on Fatu as he walks along the beach, heading towards a sacred ceremonial site adorned with torches and traditional Samoan decorations. Awaiting him is an elder, representing the lineage of High Chief Peter Maivia. The elder holds a ceremonial kava bowl.
Elder: "Fatu, you have been chosen to carry forward the legacy of our ancestors. Today, you will embrace the spirit of Peter Maivia and become the new High Chief. Are you ready to accept this honor?"
Fatu nods solemnly, his face reflecting the gravity of the moment.
Fatu: "I am ready. It is my duty and my honor to continue the legacy of my family and my people."
The elder offers the kava bowl to Fatu, who drinks from it in a ceremonial gesture. The camera captures the intensity and reverence of the moment as Fatu raises his head, now carrying the mantle of his great heritage. The Elder then places a headdress on Fatu’s head.
Elder: "From this day forward, you are not just Fatu. You are the High Chief, a guardian of our traditions and a warrior of our people. Carry this honor with pride and strength."
The camera transitions to scenes of Fatu engaging in traditional Samoan warrior training, practicing ancient rituals, and connecting with the natural beauty of Hawaii. His transformation from Headshrinker Fatu to the new High Chief is visually represented through these powerful images.
Narrator: "Embracing the strength and wisdom of those who came before him, Fatu has become the new High Chief. With the spirit of Peter Maivia guiding him, he will bring honor to his family and his heritage in the WWF."
The final shot shows Fatu standing atop a cliff, overlooking the vast ocean. He raises his arms in a gesture of triumph and reverence and begins to chant as the sun sets behind him, symbolizing the dawn of a new era.
Fatu (voiceover): "I am Fatu, the new High Chief. I will honor my ancestors, protect my people, and show the world the true power of my heritage."
The video fades to black with the text "High Chief Fatu - Coming Soon to WWF" displayed on the screen.

Suddenly Owen Hart appears on the screen!!!
Joey Styles: It looks like we are being joined by Owen Hart but Owen you aren’t on the ------
Owen grabs a mic from Joey Styles and pushes him off screen!!!!!
Owen Hart: " You know, I've had just about enough of being overlooked and disrespected in the WWF! I just watched as my brother Bret, Shawn Michaels, Razor Ramon, and THAT FREAK Cactus Jack were all announced for the Ladder Match for the vacant WWF Title. And where was I? Sitting in the back, watching them get the opportunities that I rightfully deserve!" Bret, it seems that no matter what I do, you're always the one in the spotlight, always the 'better' Hart brother. Well, I’m sick of it! I’m sick of being in your shadow, Bret. I should be in that Ladder Match. I should be the one fighting for the WWF Title!"
“Let me make one thing clear. If I can’t be in that match, then I’m going to make sure you don’t win it, Bret. I’ll do whatever it takes to ruin your chances. I don’t care if I have to climb that ladder myself and throw you off, I’m going to make sure that you walk out empty-handed! "And you know why, Bret? Because it's time for you to realize that I’m not just your little brother. I’m the better Hart. I’m the real 'Excellence of Execution.' And I’m going to prove it by making sure you never hold that WWF Title again! I’ll make sure your dreams come crashing down. Just like you’ve done to mine for years."
Owen throws the mic back down and walks away!!!!!
Jim Ross: A very angry Owen Hart, and you have to wonder what he is going to do to stop his brother from becoming Champion!!!! Let’s go to the ring because that match IS NOW!!!
Howard Finkel: "Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is a ladder match for the vacant WWF Championship! The only way to win is to climb the ladder and retrieve the title hanging above the ring!"
