MONDAY, AUGUST 1, 1994
LIVE FROM THE FERNWOOD RESORT IN BUSHKILL, PENNSYLVANIA

AIRING FROM 8pm - 9pm EST ON THE USA NETWORK












GORILLA MONSOON and BOBBY HEENAN welcome us to the Fernwood Resort in Bushkill, Pennsylvania, for another edition of MONDAY NIGHT RAW!!!

MONSOON hypes tonight’s show. On the show, we’ll see Crush challenge Steve Austin for the Intercontinental Championship, and Roddy Piper will square off with John Hawk.

HEENAN predicts the end of Rowdy Roddy Piper, right here tonight on RAW!


HOWARD FINKEL is in the ring, and introduces the competitors for the first match.


RODDY PIPER v. JOHN HAWK (w/ Bob Orton Jr) – Only 6 days before Piper and Orton square off in a Chicago Streetfight at SummerSlam, Hot Rod takes on Orton’s protege John Hawk.

Piper spends plenty of time jawing back and forth with Orton at ringside. The match itself is a wild brawl, neither man is so much interested in winning as they are in hurting the other.

We’re only about three minutes or so into the match, when Bob Orton Jr. trips Piper as he bounces off the ropes. Referee Dave Hebner sees this, and calls for the bell, disqualifying Hawk.

As Hebner raises Piper’s hand, Hawk clobbers him from behind with a clothesline. Bob Orton Jr. then grabs a chair at ringside and jumps into the ring with it!

Hawk puts the boots to Hot Rod, then pulls him up, and holds him while Orton winds up and BLASTS Piper in the head with the chair! Piper crumbles to the mat, but Orton says he’s not done, and tells Hawk to pull him up again!

Hawk does as he’s told, and holds Piper in place and Orton again tees off on him with the chair!

A cheer errupts, and Hulk Hogan and The Big Bossman hit the ring! The Hulkster and the Bossman tear into Hawk and Orton. Orton is able to escape, and takes off to the back, leaving Hawk in the ring!

Hogan catches Hawk in the chin with the Big Boot, Hawk falls to the mat, and then quickly rolls out under the bottom rope. Hawk then hightails it to the locker room.

Hogan and the Bossman check on Piper, who’s been busted open.


GORILLA and HEENAN talk about what we just saw.

HEENAN says that he would have been right, we would have seen the end of Roddy Piper, if it wasn’t for Hogan and Bossman sticking their noses where they didn’t belong!

MONSOON talks about Bob Orton Jr. taking off, leaving John Hawk in the ring.

HEENAN says that, as a manager, sometimes you’ve got to look out for yourself, he’s sure Orton knew that Hawk could handle himself.

MONSOON says that there was an interesting development backstage during the break.


We’re backstage, where John Hawk finally catches up with Bob Orton Jr.

HAWK comes up behind Orton, grabs his shoulder, and spins him around.

JOHN demands to know why Orton just left him out there, he says that if Orton had helped him out, instead of taking off like a coward, they could have taken care of Piper, Bossman AND Hogan right here tonight.

ORTON takes a moment to think, and says that he honestly thought Hawk was right behind him, he didn’t even stop to look until he was already in the back.

ORTON is able to smooth things over, and he promises Hawk that sort of thing won’t happen again.

HAWK seems satisfied with this, and the two men walk off.


MONSOON says it looks like there may be some dissention in Bob Orton’s stable.

HEENAN says that Monsoon just can’t help but try and create problems where there clearly aren’t any.

GORILLA then sends us to Sean Mooney.





SEAN MOONEY is in the WWF Event Center for the SUMMERSLAM REPORT.





MOONEY says that SummerSlam, the biggest event of the summer, is almost here! It will take place this Sunday night, August 7, from the United Center in Chicago, and you can only see it on Pay-Per-View!

MOONEY runs down the full line-up . . .

WWF Champ Lex Luger will defend the title against Intercontinental Champ “Stunning” Steve Austin! Only Luger’s belt will be on the line for that one.

Mr. Perfect will face Shawn Michaels in a Steel Cage match, where the loser must LEAVE the WWF.

Roddy Piper has challenged Bob Orton, Jr. to a Chicago Streetfight at SummerSlam! Piper is looking for payback after Orton cost him the Texas Bullrope match at In Your House.

Hulk Hogan will team up with The Big Bossman for a tag team match against the Mastadon, Big Van Vader, and John Hawk.

WWF Tag Team Champions The Quebecers will put the belts on the line against the Windham Brothers, Barry and Kendall.

Dean Malenko makes his WWF Pay-Per-View debut against Hacksaw Jim Duggan.

Crush meets the Ugandan Headhunter Kamala.

And the Headshrinkers meet Duke Droese and Brutus Beefcake.


MOONEY then sends us to comments from MR. PERFECT.


MR. PERFECT is standing in front of a WWF banner.

PERFECT says that SummerSlam will be the end of the line for either him or Shawn Michaels, only one man will remain after their match. Perfect says that, when he’s through with Michaels, there’s going to be a “vacancy” sign hanging at the HeartBreak Hotel!


We then go to comments from SHAWN MICHAELS.


MICHAELS is admiring himself in the mirror on the Heartbreak Hotel set, then turns to the camera.

MICHAELS says that at SummerSlam, he’s going to prove to the World that Mr. Perfect is anything BUT Perfect, when he beats him in the Cage and sends him packing. He ends by saying that the World Wrestling Federation will be a much better place without that jerk Mr. Perfect around!

HBK then tells the cameraman to get lost, and goes back to admiring himself in the mirror.


MOONEY says that SummerSlam is going to be the hottest event of the summer, so call your local cable provider now!

GORILLA says that LESLIE NIELSON will be the special guest at SummerSlam.


We see the previous vignettes that had aired, one with Nielson being scared off by Kamala, and then running into Shawn Michaels and Madusa in the back. Nielson can’t take his eyes off Madusa.

From there, we go to LESLIE NIELSON, walking around in the backstage area.

As he continues walking, the background behind him keeps changing.

First he’s in the arena, then the parking area, then an airport tarmac, and we see a plane take off, just missing the top of Leslie’s head by inches, with people screaming at him to get out of the way.

From there, he walks out in front of a double-decker bus in London, and off camera, we hear it swerve, and then crash, and finally an old Roman coliseum behind him, Leslie, of course, pays no attention to any of it.

NIELSON talks about SummerSlam, saying that he’ll be interviewing the wrestlers on the show, and says he hopes to get to spend some “quality time” with Madusa as well!


MONSOON laughs, and says that Leslie is a class act, and he’s happy to have him involved with the World Wrestling Federation.

HEENAN says he must have 9 lives, and then echoes Paul E. Dangerously’s comments on Superstars, that he doesn’t think Leslie is man enough to handle Madusa.


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the next match.


MR. PERFECT v. THE BROOKLYN BRAWLER – Brawler gets some offence in, but Perfect puts him away with the Perfect-Plex.

DEAN MALENKO v. BARRY HOROWITZ – Malenko wears Horowitz down, and locks on the Texas Cloverleaf for the submission.


GORILLA MONSOON climbs into the ring, and interviews HULK HOGAN and THE BIG BOSSMAN.

GORILLA talks about their tag team match coming up at SummerSlam against the team of John Hawk and Big Van Vader.


We see a highlight video, showing the past incidents involving the four men that have led to this match. It ends with Hawk and Orton bloodying Roddy Piper earlier tonight, and Hogan and Bossman coming to Piper’s aid.


HOGAN promises to make Hawk pay for what he and Orton did to Piper earlier tonight. He says that Piper is getting his head stitched up, and says that he can’t wait to watch Hot Rod tear Orton apart at SummerSlam!

BOSSMAN tells Hawk and Vader that, at SummerSlam, there will be no pardons, no parole . . . only HARD TIME!


After the interview, we see a video of Big Van Vader, destroying some hapless opponents.

GORILLA and HEENAN talk about the WWF Tag Team Title match that will take place at SummerSlam, between the Champions The Quebecers, and the challengers, Barry and Kendall Windham.

GORILLA says that we have comments from the Windham Brothers.


BARRY and KENDALL WINDHAM are standing in front of a WWF banner.

BARRY says that this opportunity at SummerSlam is the reason why he came back to the WWF. He says that he’s held the belts before, but now he has the opportunity to hold them with his brother Kendall. They’ve worked hard to get this chance, and he promises that they’ll be leaving Chicago with the belts.

KENDALL says that this type of opportunity doesn’t come along very often, and they’re going to make the most of it. He tells the Quebecers to get ready, because they’ve got the fight of their lives coming up on August 7!


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the final match.


WWF INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE MATCH
“STUNNING” STEVE AUSTIN (w/ Madusa) v. CRUSH – It’s been more than a year since Crush has had a shot at the IC Title, and he’s determined to make the most of it here. He takes the fight right to Austin, overpowering him early on.

Austin fights back, and clips the knee of the challenger. For the next few minutes, Austin focuses on the knee, softening it up for the Hollywood and Vine. Crush tries to fight him off, but Austin is relentless.

Late in the match, Crush does manage a comeback, but it’s obvious that he’s in pain, he can’t put a lot of weight on his knee, and Austin simply kicks the leg out from under the big man, and goes back to work on the knee.

Crush gets one more chance, when Austin backs him into the corner and delivers several chops. Crush responds with a forearm smash with enough force, it’s a surprise he didn’t break Austin’s jaw!

Crush comes out of the corner and catches Austin square in the mouth with a big right hand, but the Champion once again kicks Crush’s leg out from under him.

Austin locks on the Hollywood and Vine, and there’s nothing for Crush to do but submit.

Steve Austin is successful in retaining the Intercontinental Championship as he now looks ahead to next Sunday night, and his shot at the World Title!

GORILLA and BOBBY talk about the matches we’ll see, and then send us to the ring for the first match.


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the first match.


DUKE “THE DUMPSTER” DROESE & BRUTUS BEEFCAKE v. THE HEADSHRINKERS
The Headshrinkers are without their manager Afa at ringside, but they don’t let that bother them. They take the fight right to Brutus and Duke to start the match. The action goes back and forth for the first few minutes. In the end, Samu dives off of Fatu’s shoulders, delivering a Splash on Duke Droese for the pinfall victory at 6:21.


LESLIE NIELSON conducts a backstage interview with BARRY and KENDALL WINDHAM. The Windhams talk about the match with the Quebecers, and predict they will become the new World Tag Team Champions.


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the next match.


CRUSH v. KAMALA (w/ Kim Chee)
Kamala puts up a good fight, but in the end, Crush gets the win with the Kona Crush headvice at 7:18.

Kim Chee spent most of the later part of the match flat on his back on the floor. He made the mistake of getting up onto the apron during the bout, and was met with a huge right hand from Crush!


LESLIE NIELSON talks with HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN backstage. Duggan talks about his match with Malenko, and even gets a HOOOOO! from Leslie Nielson!


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the next match.


HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN v. DEAN MALENKO
The fans are solidly behind Duggan here, but it makes no difference, as Malenko methodically wears him down, and locks on the Texas Cloverleaf for the submission at 8:29


We see a highlight package of the Windham Brothers in action, including their win over The Headshrinkers at the last In Your House event, to earn the shot at the Quebecers tonight.


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the Tag Team Title match.


WWF TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH
THE QUEBECERS (Champs) v. BARRY & KENDALL WINDHAM
The action is fast and furious in this one. Kendall finds himself in trouble in the early going. The Quebecers cut off the ring, and keep him isolated in their corner. Several times, Barry tries to come in and help his brother, which only distracts the referee, allowing the Quebecers to get some double-teaming in.

Things are looking bleak for Kendall, when he’s finally able to make the tag to Barry . . . but Jacques distracts the ref, and he doesn’t see the tag! Referee Tim White forces Barry back out of the ring, while the Champions once again double-team Kendall.

Finally Kendall is able to make the hot tag, and Barry comes and cleans house. That lasts for a minute or two, until Jacques clips the knee of Barry. Everything goes downhill from there. The Quebecers are merciless in their assault on Barry’s knee, and soon, Barry can’t even stand. Kendall tries to come in and help, but gets tossed out of the ring by the Champions.

Jacques climbs out of the ring, then drags Barry over to the corner, and wraps Windham’s knee around the ringpost not once, but twice.

Back inside, while Pierre keeps Kendall Windham at bay, Jacques locks Barry in an Indian Death Lock. Barry, obviously in a lot of pain, gives up almost immediately, giving the Quebecers the win at 15:01.

The Quebecers have successfully retained the World Tag Team Titles.


A video package is shown, highlighting all that’s gone down between Roddy Piper and Bob Orton, Jr. It starts out with them as tag team partners, then skips ahead to Orton bringing John Hawk to the WWF, and the ensuing confrontation on Piper’s Pit. It ends with Orton and Hawk ganging up on Piper recently on Monday Night RAW.


LESLIE NIELSON interviews “ROWDY” RODDY PIPER about the Chicago Streetfight, coming up momentarily. Piper promises to destroy Bob Orton and run him out of the WWF once and for all!


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors, and goes over the rules, for the Chicago Streetfight.


CHICAGO STREETFIGHT
“ROWDY” RODDY PIPER v. BOB ORTON, JR.
Both men come to the ring in street clothes, and they don’t even wait for the bell, they tear into each other as soon as both men are in the ring. Ring announcer Howard Finkel barely gets out of the way!

There’s nothing pretty about this one, as both men are interested in only one thing . . . the complete destruction of their opponent. They don’t stay in the ring long, and instead make their way to the floor, and even out into the crowd! Fans scatter as Piper and Orton make their way through the first few rows of seats, throwing punches with reckless abandon.

Orton gets the upper hand as they brawl back around ringside. He slams Piper’s head into the ringpost, then grabs a nearby chair, and clocks Hot Rod over the head with it! Orton continues to hit Piper with the chair, and then rolls him back into the ring.

We can see that Piper’s been busted wide open, and within moments, his face is a crimson mask. Despite that, he won’t stay down. Orton attempts several nearfalls, but Piper always manages to kick out.

Late in the match, Orton removes the padding from one of the turnbuckles. He goes to whip Piper into it . . . but Roddy reverses it! He sends Orton crashing into the exposed steel turnbuckle!

From there, Piper rams Orton’s head into the steel a few more times, then whips him into the ropes, and locks on the Sleeperhold!

Orton is out like a light, and Roddy Piper is declared the winner at 10:02.

The match really took it’s toll, as both men have been reduced to a bloody mess!

GORILLA MONSOON says that the match certainly was not for the faint of heart.


LESLIE NIELSON interviews HULK HOGAN and THE BIG BOSSMAN about the upcoming tag team match with Vader and John Hawk. Hogan puts over Leslie as one of his favourite actors of all-time, and then discusses the match. Hogan and Bossman are ready for a war, and they’re going to come out victorious!


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the next match.


HULK HOGAN & THE BIG BOSSMAN v. BIG VAN VADER & JOHN HAWK
This match is a slobberknocker right from the opening bell! Referee Earl Hebner really has his work cut out for him here, as we see all four men in the ring at the same time for most of the match.

Both teams get plenty of offence in, but in the end, Hogan and the Bossman get the upper hand. While Bossman brawls with Big Van Vader, the Hulkster whips John Hawk into the ropes. Hogan then connects with the Big Boot as Hawk shoots off the ropes. Hogan then delivers the Legdrop and covers John Hawk for the pinfall at 8:52.

After the match, Big Van Vader is NOT happy. He pulls Hawk to his feet . . . AND SLUGS HIM IN THE CHOPS!!!

As Hawk slowly regains his senses, Vader nails him with a clothesline. From there, Vader pulls Hawk back to his feet again . . . and delivers a Powerbomb!

Hawk is flat on his back on the mat at this point. Vader picks him up again, and delivers a SECOND Powerbomb!

For the grand finale, Vader climbs to the top rope . . . and delivers a Moonsault on John Hawk!

Hawk has to be helped from the ring, as Vader storms off.


GORILLA and BOBBY discuss what just happened.

HEENAN says that apparently Vader REALLY doesn’t like to lose!


LESLIE NIELSON interviews “STUNNING” STEVE AUSTIN, “THE HEARTBREAK KID” SHAWN MICHAELS, and MADUSA. Just like the last time he talked with them, Nielson can’t seem to take his eyes off Madusa. She flirts with him a little as Austin and Michaels talk about their matches, to which Leslie pays absolutely no attention!


HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the WWF Title match.


WWF CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
LEX LUGER (WWF Champ) v. “STUNNING” STEVE AUSTIN (IC Champ) (w/ Madusa)
The two men lock up to start the match, with Luger getting the upper hand and backing Austin into the corner. Austin responds with a thumb to the eye, and then tosses Luger into the corner, and hits a series of chops. Luger fights his way out of the corner by hitting Austin with a stiff right hand that leaves the IC Champ a little wobbly. Luger then charges out of the corner with a clothesline that puts Austin flat on the mat.

Luger goes on the attack, but Austin rolls out of the ring to consult Madusa at ringside. We see plenty of stalling from Austin, who does everything he can to avoid locking up with the Champ again.

Lex finally gets his hands on Austin, and delivers a big powerslam, and another clothesline sends the challenger back out of the ring, right at Madusa’s feet.

Austin eventually turns the tables, clipping the knee of the Champion, putting Luger down on the mat. Austin goes to work, and spends the next few minutes softening up Luger’s knee.

Luger fights back, and the knee doesn’t seem to phase him as he throws punches at Austin, backing the IC Champ into the corner. Luger then places Austin on the turnbuckles . . . BELLY TO BELLY SUPERPLEX!

Luger plants Austin on the mat with the Superplex and covers him. Unfortunately for Luger, they’re close enough to the ropes, that Madusa can reach in and put Austin’s leg on the bottom rope, breaking up the count.

Luger warns Madusa to keep her nose out of the match. Lex then waits for Austin to get up, then nearly decapitates him with another wicked clothesline! Luger pulls Austin up . . . and HOISTS HIM UP IN THE TORTURE RACK!!!

Austin’s got no way out of this, but Madusa jumps into the ring, and clips the knee of the Champion, causing him to fall to the mat, and drop Austin.

Referee Tim White calls for the bell, DISQUALIFYING Steve Austin at 18:51.

Austin and Madusa then put the boots to Luger, and Austin soon locks on the Hollywood and Vine!

Several wrestlers and referees arrive on the scene and pull Austin off of the Champion. Luger is having trouble standing, and has to be helped out of the ring, but is able to walk down the aisle on his own as the fans cheer him on.


GORILLA and BOBBY talk about the match, and GORILLA says that he believes this rivalry is far from over.


We see a highlight package of the Mr. Perfect – Shawn Michaels feud. It includes footage from their feud in mid-1993, and continues on with Michaels’ surprise return to the WWF at WrestleMania 10, by interfering in the Perfect – Austin match.


With the Cage in place, HOWARD FINKEL introduces the competitors for the final match, the Loser Leaves the WWF match!


STEEL CAGE MATCH
LOSER LEAVES THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION!
MR. PERFECT v. “THE HEARTBREAK KID” SHAWN MICHAELS (w/ Madusa)
Michaels attacks Perfect as soon as he steps into the Cage, and whips him into the corner, where he continues to pummel him. With Perfect slumped in the corner, Michaels tries to make a quick getaway over the top of the Cage, but Perfect grabs his leg and pulls him back down into the ring. Michaels attempts to slam Perfect’s head into the Cage, but Perfect blocks it, and instead sends Michaels face-first into the steel bars!

Perfect then attempts to leave the Cage, but Michaels catches him, and uses a big back suplex to put Perfect flat on the mat. As Perfect slowly gets back to his feet, Michaels comes off the top rope with a flying bodypress, then makes a mad dash for the door of the Cage. Perfect catches him at the last second, and drags him back into the Cage . . . then Perfect dashes towards the door, only to be caught and dragged back by his opponent.

The next minute or two see both men trying to escape. At one point, they both climb to the top of the Cage, and trade punches while straddling the top of the Cage. Perfect gets the better of that exchange, and sends Michaels falls back into the ring. Perfect starts to climb over the top, but Madusa climbs up the Cage from the outside, and keeps Perfect from getting over the top.

That gives Michaels a chance to recover, and he pulls Perfect back down into the ring. The next few minutes see Michaels trying desperately to get out of the Cage, but Perfect stops him each time. Perfect takes Michaels and slams his head into the Cage on each of the four sides. Michaels is groggy, but when Perfect tries to go out the door, Michaels is able to stop him.

Perfect climbs to the top turnbuckle, and starts to go up the Cage, but Michaels climbs to the top and SUPERPLEXES Perfect back down to the mat! HBK follows that up with a Piledriver. Michaels tries to leave the Cage through the door, but Perfect is able to grab his foot and drag him back to the middle of the ring.

The two men trade punches in the middle of the ring, with Perfect getting the upper hand. He puts Michaels flat on the mat with a big haymaker, then, holding Michaels legs, he falls backwards, catapulting Michaels, head-first, into the steel bars!

Perfect picks Michaels up off the mat, and delivers a Piledriver of his own. Perfect then goes for the door. Michaels is still down on the mat, and it looks like Perfect is going to win this one!

Madusa has other ideas, as Perfect starts to go through the door, she grabs the Cage door . . . AND SLAMS IT ON PERFECT’S HEAD!!!

Perfect falls backwards, back into the ring, and appears to be out. Madusa is screaming at Michaels to get out of the Cage.

HBK, for some reason, decides to go over the top, instead of out the door. He gets to the top, and climbs over! Michaels is starting the descent down the outside of the Cage! All he has to do is jump down to the floor, and he’ll win the match!!!

Perfect is back up, and he grabs Michaels foot through the bars . . . Michaels falls, and catches his foot in the bars!!!

MICHAELS IS STUCK, HANGING UPSIDE DOWN ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAGE!!!

Madusa rushes over and tries to free the HeartBreak Kid, while Perfect rushes to the door.

Perfect climbs through the door, just as Madusa has got Michaels’ foot free from the bars, and he falls the rest of the way to the floor!!

PERFECT JUMPS DOWN TO THE FLOOR, REACHING IT JUST SECONDS BEFORE MICHAELS CRASHES INTO THE FLOOR!!!!

MR. PERFECT HAS WON THE CAGE MATCH . . . SHAWN MICHAELS MUST LEAVE THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION!!!!

The time of the match is 38:17.


After the match, LESLIE NIELSON interviews MR. PERFECT. We get the usual comedy bits from Nielson, as Perfect brags about beating Michaels, and says that’s the last the WWF fans will see of the HeartBreak Kid!


GORILLA and BOBBY recap what took place, focusing on the Quebecers retaining the WWF Tag Team Titles against the Windhams, Big Van Vader demolishing John Hawk after their loss in the tag match, Lex Luger’s DQ victory over “Stunning” Steve Austin, and of course, Mr. Perfect beating Shawn Michaels in the Loser Leaves the WWF match!

GORILLA reminds everyone to tune into Monday Night RAW tomorrow night for all the fall-out from tonight’s event.

MONSOON then sends us to the ring and HOWARD FINKEL, as two men who were victorious at Summerslam will face each other here tonight as Crush battles Dean Malenko!!!!

CRUSH V. DEAN MALENKO- Crush has the size advantage here, without a shadow of a doubt, but Malenko is quick and keeps away from Crush. Malenko strikes Crush with several dropkicks to the knee, hobbling the big man. Malenko gets Crush down to the mat and locks in the Texas Cloverleaf. Crush fights and fights and finally reaches the ropes. Malenko tries to go back to work Crush’s leg, but Crush is swinging like a madman. Crush is finally able to connect with a big haymaker that knocks Malenko a little silly, Crush catches the dazed Malenko with a chokeslam!!! Crush collapses on Malenko and gets the three count, though Malenko kicks out a split second too late! Crush is on the mat clutching his knee as Malenko yells at referee Dave Hebner for the count. Malenko loses it, pushes Hebner down, and locks HIM in the Texas Cloverleaf!!!!!!Crush fights Malenko off Hebner, but Dave isn’t looking too good. Malenko leaves for the back, and does not look happy.

HEENAN gets a great laugh out of what just happened to Dave Hebner and MONSOON says it was despicable, you should never lay your hands on a referee and Monsoon is sure SHANE MCMAHON is not going to be happy about this one bit!

We then see a clip of STEVE AUSTIN AND MADUSA walking in the back hallway and MONSOON says that Austin will be in action NEXT!!!!!

INTERCONTINETAL CHAMPION STEVE AUSTIN V. DOINK THE CLOWN- This is a non title match, and is Doink’s first match back in a while here in the WWF. Doink offers Austin a handshake, and has a joy buzzer on. Doink gets a good laugh about it, but Austin isn’t in the mood for games and slaps the taste out of Doink’s mouth. This match is pretty much all Austin as he dominates Doink before putting him away with a Stun Gun.

AUSTIN then is joined by the newest member of the WWF announce team KEN RESNICK in the ring. RESNICK goes over with AUSTIN what happened at Summerslam and how he was trapped in the torture rack, before the save by MADUSA. AUSTIN ignores RESNICK saying MADUSA didn't save him from nothing. AUSTIN says that he wants LUGAR in the ring again, and as IC CHAMPION, that makes him the #1 contender for the belt. AUSTIN says LUGAR can't duck him forever, and soon AUSTIN will be both IC Champion and WWF WORLD CHAMPION!!! MONSOON then sends us to a video package for a strange gentleman who will soon be making his debut here in the World Wrestling Federation very soon, THE JACKYL.

THE JACKYL is sitting quietly in a dark room. He has a big smile on his face as he welcomes us to his home. THE JACKYL claims to not have many possessions because he does not believe in the ways of the world, he says government, religion, work, friends, are all here just to hold us down, to force us to conform to their ways, but that is not what THE JACKYL wants for us, THE JACKYL simply wants us to be happy, and in order to be happy you have to let everything go. THE JACKYL invites us to follow him, to follow his ways, and allow him to leads us into a new understanding and enlightenment. THE JACKYL claims that he has already done this for other wrestlers who have fallen by the wayside here in the WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION, and soon he will be bringing them back to the WWF and showing the World how he has rescued them and reshaped them. THE JACKYL ends the interview by saying once again that he wants to help, and he can help if you just reach out and follow him. The video ends with THE JACKYL’S hand on the screen asking you to reach out to him.

KEN RESNICK is backstage with WWF OWNER SHANE MCMAHON! SHANE first wants to address what DEAN MALENKO did to EARL HEBNER, that kind of thing is never allowed here in the WWF, you cannot put your hands on a referee or official. SHANE says that the board will have to decide MALENKO’S fate, but he has the power to suspend MALENKO FOR 90 DAYS!!!!

SHANE then talks about STUNNING STEVE AUSTIN’S demand for a title match. SHANE says AUSTIN WILL have a title match RIGHT HERE ON RAW NEXT WEEK!!!! But SHANE says it will not be for the WWF TITLE, but for STEVE’S IC BELT!!!! SHANE says AUSTIN did not defend the title at SUMMERSLAM, thus next week he will defend it against the winner of a 10 MAN BATTLE ROYAL which will happen RIGHT HERE TONIGHT!!!! SHANE thanks the fans for watching and sends us back to ringside and MONSOON AND HEENAN.

HEENAN says that SHANE is getting drunk with power, MONSOON is glad to see Shane lay down the law!! HEENAN says that AUSTIN will not be happy about this at all. MONSOON can't wait till the battle royal later tonight!!!!

BIG VAN VADER V. CHAZ WARRINGTON AND GLEN RUTH- VADER rips both men apart, the entire time he is yelling “WHO’S THE MAN” or “WHAT TIME IS IT?” Vader hits both men with Powerbombs before pinning them together. Vader looks in the camera after the match and threatens PIPER, HOGAN, BOSSMAN AND LUGAR saying they are all in his path of destruction!!!!!!

10 MAN BATTLE ROYAL WINNER FACES STEVE AUSTIN NEXT WEEK. PARTICAPANTS: BRUTUS BEEFCAKE, KAMALA, JIM DUGGAN, SAMU, TATANKA, FATU, DISCO INFERNO, BOB HOLLY, PAT TANAKA, KENDELL WINDHAM- It's total chaos as the bell rings, The Headshrinkers are the only people really working together as everyone else seems to be out for themselves. PAT TANAKA is the first man eliminated after a couple of minutes by BRUTUS BEEFCAKE. DISCO INFERNO and KENDELL WINDHAM soon follow as DISCO is trying to eliminate KENDELL and JIM DUGGAN dumps them both out. BOB HOLLY tries to eliminate KAMALA, but gets tossed out himself by THE UGANDAN GIANT. On the other side of the ring, BRUTUS BEEFCAKE has picked up where he left off last night at SUMMERSLAM as he battles THE HEADSHRINKERS. He tries to battle them on his own, but falls to their superior numbers and is tossed out of the ring, just as DUGGAN and TATANKA work together to toss out KAMALA.

This makes the final four, THE HEADSHRINKERS, TATANKA and JIM DUGGAN, and the match pretty much turns into a tag match. DUGGAN and TATANKA pair off with a Samoan and the war is on. The faces have the HEADSHRINKERS routed early, but the HEADSHRINKERS have been working as a team for a long time and are able to turn the tide and after a double headbutt on TATANKA to knock him down, they hit DUGGAN with a double superkick to send him sailing out of the ring over the top rope. HEENAN questions on commentary if THE HEADSHRINKERS are going to fight themselves or if AUSTIN is going to have to be in a handicap match next week.

TATANKA is still down and the HEADSHRINKERS go for the coup d’état as FATU climbs the ropes and SAMU launches him off with a 400 pound rocket launcher!!! But TATANKA rolls out of the way and FATU eats canvas!!!!! FATU is rolling around on the mat and SAMU is shocked!!! TATANKA wastes no time wearing SAMU out with chops, backing the big man to the ropes and then creaming him with a massive chop that sends SAMU over the top and to the floor!!!!

FATU rises to his feet and looks at TATANKA. TATANKA starts to break into a war dance and then charges FATU!! The two men are standing in the middle of the ring trading chops!!! The blows are brutal as the two men try and peel the skin off each others chests. FATU headbutts TATANKA and gives the Native American Warrior pause. Fatu then runs the ropes, but TATANKA ducks a clothesline, and then catches FATU with with THE END OF THE TRAIL INDIAN DROP!!!!FATU rises to his feet against the ropes and TATANKA nails him with a running clothesline that sends FATU over the top and out of the ring, giving TATANKA the victory and the shot at the IC TITLE NEXT WEEK!!!

WWF CHAMPION LEX LUGAR rushes out to the ring, slides in and hugs his long time friend. LUGAR holds TATANKA’s hand in the air as we go to a commercial and MONSOON says KEN RESNICK will speak with TATANKA and LUGAR NEXT!!!

KEN RESNICK is in the ring with WWF CHAMPION LEX LUGAR and the man who will challenge for the IC TITLE next week TATANKA!!!! LUGAR congratulates his friend and promises to be at ringside when TATANKA faces AUSTIN next week, just to make sure that MADUSA doesn't stick her nose where it doesn't belong. TATANKA thanks LUGAR and promises the fans to bring the IC TITLE home to the LUMBEE NATION!!!! RESNICK then sends us to RODDY PIPER who is on the set of PIPER’S PIT!!!!

PIPER thanks RESNICK and wishes TATANKA luck next week against AUSTIN, and also takes time to wish his friends HULK HOGAN and THE BIG BOSSMAN luck in their match in a few moments against THE QUEBECERS for the WWF TITLE. PIPER then introduces his guest at this time, the man who ran SHAWN MICHAELS out of the WWF MR. PERFECT CURT HENNIG!!!!!

HENNIG comes out and talks with PIPER, he says how good it feels to have run HBK out of the WWF and down South where HBK gets to play with big boys, something he knows MICHEALS has experience with, playing with boys. That gives PIPER a chuckle. PIPER asks PERFECT what's next for him now that he has gotten rid of HBK? PERFECT would love to take on HBK’s old running buddy STEVE AUSTIN and take back the IC TITLE, and become the first man to hold the belt 3 times. Though PERFECT wishes TATANKA luck with his match next week, PERFECT also says he still hasn't won the big one, the WWF TITLE. PERFECT says that he and LUGAR are friends, but he won't that get in the way of trying to get a title shot. PERFECT says the future is wide open for him, and that's just PERFECT!!!

WWF WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS V. HULK HOGAN & THE BIG BOSSMAN W/BRUTUS BEEFCAKE- BOSSMAN is wearing a HULK HOGAN T Shirt to the ring with HOGAN. The two challengers clear the ring of the Champions fairly quickly. HOGAN rips his shirt off and poses for the fans while BEEFCAKE whips the fans into a frenzy!! The match settles down into a standard tag match, with BOSSMAN and HOGAN battering the QUEBECERS, until a little cheating by the Champions catches BOSSMAN unawares. The Quebecers down team and work over BOSSMAN for several minutes, HOGAN jumps into the ring several times, which only serves to distract the referee and allow THE QUEBECERS a chance to double team BOSSMAN some more. At one point HOGAN finally has enough, pushes his way into the ring and slams the QUEBECERS heads together! HOGAN then gets forced out of the ring again.

QUEBECER PIERE tries to throw BOSSMAN into the ropes, but BOSSMAN reverses the whip and then flattens PIERRE with a BOSSMAN SLAM!!!!! BOSSMAN collapses to the mat however and cannot make the pin!!! HOGAN is reaching out for the tag going crazy, begging BOSSMAN to make the long crawl and tag out. PIERE is trying to get to his corner at the same time!!! PIERE makes the tag to JACQUES who rushes into the ring, but doesn't get to BOSSMAN in time!!! BOSSMAN makes a final leap into his corner and makes the tag to HOGAN!!!!

HOGAN is a house of fire unloading on JACQUES with punches, before bodyslamming him to the mat!!!! PIERE tries to jump into the ring and attack HOGAN but HOGAN no sell’s PIERRE’S attack and slams him to the mat!!!!! HOGAN then hits a double clothesline on both QUEBECERS!!!! HOGAN sends JACQUES into the ropes and catches him with the BIG BOOT!!! HOGAN runs the ropes ……LEG DROP!!!!!! HOGAN MAKES THE COVER!!!! PIERRE TRIES TO BREAK UP THE COUNT BUT BOSSMAN STOPS HIM!!!!! THE REFEREE COUNTS THREE!!!! HULK HOGAN AND THE BIG BOSSMAN ARE THE NEW WWF TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!

BEEFCAKE grabs the title belts and jumps in the ring, he hands one to BOSSMAN and one to HOGAN. BEEFCAKE raises HOGAN and BOSSMAN’s hands in victory as REAL AMERICAN blasts through the building!!!! HEENAN says he is about to throw up as MONSOON sends us to a commercial break!

HEENAN is acting like he is sick and throwing up in a garbage can. MONSOON says “WILL YOU STOP” to HEENAN. They watch a replay of HOGAN pinning JACQUES then MONSOON sends us to the locker room and SEAN MOONEY who is in the middle of a celebration!!!! The other babyfaces are dumping champagne over HOGAN and BOSSMAN’s head!!! WWF CHAMPION LEX LUGAR walks in and after a brief staredown shakes HOGAN’S hand and then hugs him!!! The celebration stops in it's tracks though when IC CHAMPION STEVE AUSTIN and MADUSA appear!!! AUSTIN promises to let everyone get back to their little celebration soon, but he has something to say, he points to TATANKA and tells him next week he is going to drop his dime store Indian ass on that stack of dimes he calls a neck, and then he tells LUGAR that he is coming after the WWF TITLE and (AUSTIN snatches a bottle of champagne out of LUGAR’S hand) he is going to take it just like that. AUSTIN chugs the bottle and then tosses it to the ground where it shatters. AUSTIN AND MADUSA leave as LUGAR, TATANKA, HOGAN all look on with angry looks on their faces.

MONDAY, AUGUST 15, 1994
LIVE FROM THE MILWAUKEE AUDITORIUM IN MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN

AIRING FROM 8pm - 9pm EST ON THE USA NETWORK












GORILLA MONSOON and BOBBY HEENAN welcome us to The Milwaukee Auditorium, for another edition of MONDAY NIGHT RAW!!!

MONSOON says last week, the WORLD TAG TEAM TITLES changed hands? Will another title change hands this week as TATANKA challenges IC CHAMPION STEVE AUSTIN for the belt? Speaking of the new WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, HULK HOGAN AND BIG BOSSMAN will be guests in this week’s PIPER’S PIT!!! Also this week, BRUTUS BEEFCAKE teams with HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN to take on THE HEADSHRINKERS, MR. PERFECT will be in action, and the MASTEDON that walks like a man BIG VAN VADER is here and no one knows what he might do next!!!! MONSOON then sends to the ring and HOWARD FINKEL for our opening match!!!

BRUTUS BEEFCAKE AND “HACKSAW” JIM DUGGAN V. THE HEADSHRINKERS- In a quasi SUMMERSLAM rematch, BEEFCAKE finds another partner to challenge the HEADSHRINKERS, who not only beat him and DUKE DROSE at SUMMERSLAM, but also eliminated both DUGGAN and BEEFCAKE from last week’s BATTLE ROYAL!!!!! DUGGAN quiets the crowd at the start of the match and gets them to start chanting USA USA USA! This doesn’t faze THE HEADSHRINKERS who go right after DUGGAN. The babyfaces give as good as they get and soon we have a full fledged brawl on our hands that referee Earl Hebner is having a hell of a time controlling. MONSOON mentions that the HEADSHRINKERS are more out of control now than ever, now that they have lost AFA as their manager. BEEFCAKE and DUGGAN have a strong run and come close to pulling out the win, but FATU is the star of the match fighting off both men and hitting an unbelievable SUPERFLY SPLASH on BEEFCAKE for the win.

After the match, THE HEADSHRINKERS trap DUGGAN in the ropes, and then continue to beat up on BEEFCAKE!!! They are targeting his surgically repaired face and MONSOON mentions that BEEFCAKE almost lost his life and a year or wrestling due to that injury and now the HEADSHRINKERS are trying to reinjure him!!!! Finally WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPION HULK HOGAN & THE BIG BOSSMAN run to the rescue and clear the HEADSHRINKERS from the ring.


HEENAN says it makes him sick seeing HOGAN ride into the rescue for his buddy BEEFCAKE. MONSOON says that it’s a good thing HOGAN did or else BEEFCAKE could have been seriously injured! MONSOON then sends us to the back and KEN RESNICK who is with IC CHAMPION STEVE AUSTIN and MADUSA!

RESNICK starts to ask AUSTIN about interrupting the celebration for HOGAN and BOSSMAN last week, but AUSTIN doesn’t want to waste his time talking about that, he wants to talk about tonight. He says that TATANKA thinks he is going to war dance his way to the ring in his stupid little feather hat and take HIS IC Title away? AUSTIN says TATANKA needs to put the fire water down for a second and use that pea sized brain of his, ain’t no way TATANKA is going to take this belt away from him. AUSTIN says tonight he is going to drop TATANKA on his pin head just like that (snaps his fingers), put him down for the 1-2-3 and send him back to the reservation to sit with WAHOO MCDANIEL, JAY STRONGBOW, JULES STRONGBOW and whatever old washed up broken Indian is there waiting on their checks from the Casinos. AUSTIN says then, when he is done with TATANKA, he wants LUGAR and the WWF TITLE, and there ain’t a damn thing anyone can do to stop it.

KAMALA W/KIM CHEE V. BOB HOLLY- HOLLY has been showing some great flashes of drive lately and takes the fight right to the monster KAMALA. Holly throws everything he has at KAMALA, and while he rocks KAMALA some, it’s not enough to put the monster down. KAMALA puts HOLLY down for the three count @3:14.

After the match, the referee tries to help Holly to his feet, but Holly brushes him off and says he can do it. MONSOON says HOLLY took a hell of a beating, but he is back on his feet and didn’t need any help to get there. MONSOON then sends us to another video from THE JACKYL!

THE JACKYL is once again in his dark room. He says that he has been called many things, a crazed lunatic, a savior, a messiah, and a demon. THE JACKYL says he is all these things and more, just like HULK HOGAN . THE JACKYL calls HOGAN a false Idol being worshipped like a golden calf, people flock to HOGAN and cheer him on, feed his ego and his legend. But THE JACKYL says HOGAN is a poor man because of it. THE JACKYL says he can look into HOGAN’S eyes and see the evil that is there, he can see that HOGAN is lost, and he needs someone to guide him through the wilderness. THE JACKYL says he is that man, he puts his hand up on the screen and asks for the fans to reach out for him, he asks HOGAN to reach out to him. THE JACKYL says two former WWF SUPERSTARS have already found their way to him, and soon he will bring them back to the WWF and show HOGAN and the rest of us just how much the JACKYL can do for us, if we take his hand and follow him to the Promised Land.

MR. PERFECT V. RENO RIGGINS- Complete and total squash with Perfect just dominating Riggins before putting him away with a Perfect Plex.


MONSOON says PERFECT looks better than ever and should soon be challenging for a title now that he no longer has to deal with HBK. MONSOON sends us to the back and KEN RESNICK who is with WWF CHAMPION LEX LUGAR and the man who will challenge for the IC TITLE later tonight, TATANKA!!!
RESNICK asks TATANKA if he is ready for tonight? TATANKA says he is and that he heard what AUSTIN had to say earlier. TATANKA says normally it would be an honor to be mentioned in the same sentence as legends like THE STRONGBOWS and WAHOO MCDANIELS, but all AUSTIN did was further insult him and fire him up even more. TATANKA says he is coming for AUSTIN tonight and AUSTIN has no idea what he is in for. LUGAR restates that he will be in TATANKA’s corner tonight to watch his back, as LUGAR is talking; BIG VAN VADER suddenly appears on the scene. VADER says LUGAR better open his eyes and realize what time it is, IT’S VADER TIME. VADER says he is on a mission of destruction, he is going to destroy and lay waste to everyone and everything that gets in his way, so while LUGAR is spending all his time hold TATANKA’S hand and playing around with that bleach blonde AUSTIN, VADER is waiting for his shot at the title. VADER says that LUGAR is scared, he knows he’s scared, he can smell it. LUGAR tells VADER he isn’t scared of anything and if VADER wants a shot at the title all he has to do is put his name on the dotted line. VADER tells LUGAR to watch the show tonight very closely because VADER has a message for LUGAR. VADER leaves a very angry LUGAR with TATANKA, who tries to talk his friend down from fighting VADER right here in the dressing room!!!

MONSOON says that TATANKA sounds ready for tonight, but on the other hand, now LUGAR has to be thinking about VADER!!! It seems that everyone wants the WWF TITLE!!! HEENAN says of course they do, hell TATANKA was probably trying to figure out how to stab LUGAR in the back to take the title, HEENAN then mentions for a mere 89% of TATANKA’S salary for a year THE BRAIN will tell him how to do it!! MONSOON ignores HEENAN and sends us to the ring for our next match.


DUKE “THE DUMPSTER” DROSE VS. PAT TANAKA- TANAKA and DROSE have had hard luck as of late, both are looking to get one in the win coloum here tonight, they have a nice little starting battle, that is until BIG VAN VADER rushes out to the ring and slides in!!! VADER attacks both men, clobbering them with punches and short arm clotheslines, he powerbombs PAT TANAKA and then after a powerslam, climbs the ropes and hits a VADERSAULT off the top onto DROSE!!!! VADER drops to one knee and asks “WHAT TIME IS IT?” VADER then yells into the camera “LUGAR!!! YOU GET THE MESSAGE??? IT’S VADER TIME!!!”

RODDY PIPER is in the PIT!!! PIPER says VADER is indeed a monster, but all he has seen VADER do is beat up some rookies lately and jump guys when their backs are turned. PIPER also talks about looking forward to the IC TITLE match and wonders if we are going to see a title change for a second week in a row? PIPER then brings out his friends, WWF WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, THE BIG BOSSMAN and HULK HOGAN!!!! PIPER congratulates both men on winning the WORLD TAG TITLES, HOGAN says he has been WWF CHAMPION 5 Times, but this is the first time he has ever held the TAG TEAM TITLES, and he is proud to do it with BOSSMAN. BOSSMAN says how 6 years ago when they were trying to kill each other in cage matches; he never would have imagined standing at HOGAN’s side as his tag team partner, and especially not as ½ of the WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS. HOGAN then talks about what happened earlier tonight, with the HEADSHRINKERS, HOGAN says that since AFA vanished, the HEADSHRINKERS have been out of control and what they tried to do to BROTHER BRUTI tonight was the last straw. HOGAN challenges the HEADSHRINKERS to meet he and BOSSMAN right here next week on RAW!!!!! HOGAN closes the interview by asking the HEADSHRINKERS…”WHATCHA GONNA DO, WHEN THE BOSSMAN, AND HULKMANIA RUN WILD ON YOU??”

We return to the show and TATANKA has AUSTIN flying all over the ring still!!! MONSOON announces during the match that the HEADSHRINKERS have accepted HOGAN AND BOSSMAN’s challenge for next week and will face the WWF TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS RIGHT HERE ON RAW WITH THE BELTS ON THE LINE!!!! Things look bleak for the IC CHAMPION that is until TATANKA runs chest first into the corner after MADUSA pushes AUSTIN out of it!!!!! LUGAR THEN GIVES CHASE TO MADUSA!!!!! MADUSA TRIES TO RUN AWAY, BUT SOON REALIZES THAT ISN’T GOING TO WORK!!! MADUSA THEN TAKES AN EVEN MORE ILL ADVISED STANCE AND SLAPS THE TASTE OUT OF LUGAR’S MOUTH!!!!!!

LUGAR answers by scooping MADUSA up, throwing her over his shoulder and CARRYING HER TO THE LOCKER ROOM!!!! HEENAN screams wanting to know what LUGAR is doing with MADUSA? MONSOON says he is removing her from ringside, and HEENAN says LUGAR is kidnapping her!!!! HEENAN is despairing for MADUSA and her virtue which he is sure LUGAR will try and rob her of and begs someone to save her from LUGAR. MONSOON ignores HEENAN and goes back to calling the match.

AUSTIN now has complete control and is working TATANKA over. TATANKA is doing everything he can to fight back, but AUSTIN is unrelenting!!! AUSTIN gets a Sleeper Hold locked in on TATANKA and it looks like it’s lights out as TATANKA falls to the mat. The referee checks with TATANKA, but before he can call for the bell TATANKA starts fighting to his feet!!!! TATANKA gets vertical and unloads elbows into AUSTIN’S gut forcing him to break the hold!!!!! TATANKA sends AUSTIN into the ropes and tries to take his head off with a big chop but AUSTIN ducks!!! TATANKA then leapfrogs AUSTIN, but comes down wrong on his knee and is hobbled!!! MONSOON says he could hear something pop all the way at the announce table!!! TATANKA grabs his knee as AUSTIN comes back with a huge clothesline that turns TATANKA inside out!!!!!

TATANKA is down on the mat clutching his knee and like a shark to blood AUSTIN goes right for it!!! AUSTIN batters TATANKA’S knee for several moments before clamping in THE HOLLYWOOD AND VINE!!!!! TATANKA is fighting the hold for all that he is worth, TATANKA refuses to give up, but soon passes out from the pain!!!! Referee Earl Hebner calls for the bell, ending the match and giving AUSTIN the win, but when HEBNER awards the belt to AUSTIN, The Champion refuses to release the HOLLYWOOD AND VINE!!! TATANKA is out cold but AUSTIN is refusing to let up!!!!! HEBNER tries to pull him off but AUSTIN pushes him away!!!


LEX LUGAR COMES RUSHING BACK OUT OF THE LOCKER ROOM AND SLIDES INTO THE RING!!!!AUSTIN QUICKLY RELEASES THE HOLD AND BAILS OUT OF THE RING!!!! LUGAR BENDS DOWN TO CHECK ON TATANKA AS AUSTIN WALKS OVER TO THE ANNOUNCE TABLE AND SNATCHES THE WWF TITLE, WHICH LUGAR LEFT WITH MONSOON BEFORE THE MATCH BEGAN, AWAY!!!! AUSTIN CLIMBS BACK INTO THE RING, LUGAR HAS NO IDEA AS HIS BACK IS STILL TURNED!!! LUGAR TURNS AROUND AND AUSTIN BLASTS HIM IN THE FACE WITH THE WORLD TITLE BELT!!!!!! LUGAR IS DOWN AND OUT ON THE MAT!!!!! AUSTIN SCOOPS UP THE IC TITLE THAT HEBNER DROPPED AND STANDING BETWEEN THE KOED BODIES OF LUGAR AND TATANKA HOLDS UP BOTH THE WWF TITLE AND THE IC TITLE AS THE SHOW GOES OFF THE AIR!!!!!!!!
