Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for December 25, 1993

Bret "Hit Man" Hart and "The Rocket" Owen Hart show up on the video screen, together again. Bret admits that there was a lot of friction between him and Owen, but he knew this was tearing the family apart and that they had to sit down and talk about it, which worked. He may never find out who the better wrestler was, and feels better about it anyway as he knows he can better channel his energy into a tag team match against The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) with the WWF Tag Team Championships on the line, as united, they stand, and divided, they fall. Owen says he said things after Survivor Series he should not have said, but it does not matter if they were true or not as 1994 will be their year when he kicks off with Bret right behind. Together, they will take the WWF Tag Team Championships and make 1994 memorable for him and Owen.

Cornette says he and Fuji are more nervous about this event than anything else, and says Tatanka and Lex Luger have been humiliated and embarrassed numerous times at the hands of Yokozuna and Ludvig Borga. He says that one is humiliated and embarrassed that much, one would want revenge, but if Ludvig Borga does not break their backs, then Yokozuna will flatten them like pancakes.

At Royal Rumble, Yokozuna will have his turkey late in the former of an Undertaker turkey with Paul Bearer stuffing.

Irwin R. Schyster beats Ralph Mosca. Before the bell rings to begin the match, Mosca whips I.R.S. into the ring post, then tries to look in the briefcase as I.R.S. tries to get up. However, there is a combination lock, and when I.R.S. sees him, he takes the boots to him, and the match begins as he tells Mosca that nobody touches his briefcase.

He says he will make Savage's worst nightmare come true. We then hear from Savage, who says he is concerned but he is a survivor, and when the bell rings, he turns on the switch and he becomes electric. He says he and Crush can take it to a different level, and if Crush shows up, he can promise that their match will be the wildest thing we have ever seen.

Next week: Razor Ramon! Ludvig Borga! "The Rocket" Owen Hart!

We hear from Johnny Polo and Jacques. Revenge is on their minds, and they have been waiting for Lex Luger. They are coming prepared, and what happened to Pierre will not happen to Jacques.

We see Vince McMahon interview Bret "Hit Man" Hart in footage from earlier this week. Bret says his brother "The Rocket" Owen Hart is mixed up right now, and that a match between them would tear up the entire family. He does not know where Owen gets the impression that he was always favored while Owen was pushed off to the side. He admits that Owen won as many accomplishments as he did, but he never felt they needed to be compared to each other. He also does not buy the belief that Owen has lived in his shadow, even if he started off, got famous and accomplished things before Owen did. He is proud of what he has done in the WWF, as is his family, and so should Owen, who has hurdles to jump and goals to reach of his own as he has a whole career ahead of him. As for the post-match celebration at Survivor Series, he says Owen was aware he could join them, and is shocked by Owen saying he felt left out of it. When asked if he has ever been selfish, Bret believes he has never been selfish and has always tried to be the best big brother he could be to Owen, and if Owen feels he is jealous, he would rather talk about it. As for Owen's challenge to a one-on-one match to prove who the better brother is, Bret says he has never backed away from anybody or turned down a challenge, but there are no circumstances where he would want to step into the ring with his brother Owen, and says he will not do it as he does not want this to go any further than it already has.

We then hear from Razor Ramon for Face To Face. He tells Jeff Jarrett that the Garden is like his second home, and in his schedule defending the title, he spends more time in New York than in Miami. He says that this is Jarrett's first time in the Garden, where he is undefeated. We then hear from Jarrett, who says the New York fans stink. He says they may be called "enthusiastic," but to him they are "loudmouthed foreigners." He says Razor Ramon reminds him of the loudmouth New York fans, and the Intercontinental Championship will soon be his.

Ludvig Borga vs. Tatanka: next week on Raw!

Before the next match, "Double J" Jeff Jarrett says his debut on Superstars is what everyone has been waiting for, and tells everyone not to forget his name.

During the match, we hear pre-recorded comments from Jeff Jarrett, who says that whatever he wants, he takes when it comes to what he wants for Christmas.

It is also announced that Lex Luger is denied entry in the Royal Rumble Match due to the clause in the SummerSlam contract where if Lex Luger did not win the title, he would not get another chance at Yokozuna for the WWF Championship. It is announced than an opinion poll over whether or not to let Luger into the Rumble is now open, and there will be more details this weekend on All-American Wrestling.

Jim Ross re-advertises the show at Madison Square Garden on January 17th. Rick Steiner faces Ludvig Borga. We then hear from Tatanka, who says he is physically ready because when he got injured and felt all the pain he had inside, he went back to his homeland where he could gain the wisdom from his elders and sit down with a medicine man who could help him heal faster. He has trained six days a week, two-and-a-half hours a day for his return, so he is definitely ready for Yokozuna, who has created an animal. He has realized that Yokozuna brought something out when he put him in all that pain, and he will soon feel that pain himself. We then hear from Jim Cornette (accompanied by Mr. Fuji and Yokozuna), who does not care about Tatanka's revege and says that Tatanka has no chance at the WWF Championship.

It is announced on Update that the main event of Royal Rumble is The Undertaker vs. Yokozuna for the WWF Championship. Jim Cornette has added a stipulation making it so that it is The Undertaker's one and only chance against Yokozuna for the WWF Championship, but Paul Bearer has added a clause of his own making the match a Casket Match. We then hear from Cornette, who says there are a lot of accusations thrown around and shady deals going around, and says he made no mistake and that Paul Bearer pulled a fast one on him.

We then hear from Lex Luger, who will be facing Ludvig Borga in a grudge match tomorrow night, saying that the stipulation that he must war a protective pad on his right forearm does not bother him, as he welcomes the opportunity to wrestle Borga with no excuses. He says defeat is a very bitter pill for Ludvig Borga to swallow, and now they get to do it one more time and see what Borga is really made of, and he will see if Ludvig Borga will admit to losing if he beats him. We then hear from Ludvig Borga, who insists Lex Luger cheated to beat him. This time, it will be different and he will show no mercy to Luger before he finishes him one and for all.

We see an interview from earlier this week where Vince McMahon interviews "The Rocket" Owen Hart. Owen says the friction between himself and Bret "Hit Man" Hart started long before Survivor Series, saying he always did better than Bret but but Bret ended up being the golden child. He says that is fine, but that it is now time to step away from Bret, and he must show everyone that he can make a name for himself on the World Wrestling Federation on his own without using Bret's name. He also says he carried the Hart family honor, and when he collided into Bret, everybody paid attention to him. When he was not invited to celebrate after the match - to Bret's music - he had to tell Bret to stop being so selfish and taking all the recognition. He says he has done a lot in his lifetime, and that it is time for people to pay attention to what he has done. When told that he is Bret's brother, Owen simply states that he is Bret is the brother of "The Rocket" Owen Hart, not the other way around. He then says he has lived in Bret's shadow all his life, and challenges him to a one-on-one fight to settle it once and for all and prove he can beat him.

We then hear from Savage, who says it will be "Crush Crush Night," and that when he gets down with Crush, Crush will think the New York Giants trounced him before the New York Jets slapped him.

Shawn Michaels vs. The 1-2-3 Kid ends when Razor Ramon shows up taking offense to Michaels hitting The Kid with two Razor's Edges, obviously a message from Michaels to Razor. Razor chases Shawn Michaels around the ring after Michaels slaps him in the face, and is about to chase him backstage when he is suddenly knocked out from behind the curtain leading to the backstage area by Diesel.

He is tired of carrying the load for the family only for Bret "Hit Man" Hart to get all the recognition, and he was two for two until Bret got in his way and got him eliminated. He is also offended by not being invited back to the ring for the victory celebration, and knows where he stands with the family as he says that Bret has been a problem for a long time. He tells Bret to stay out of his way, as he is now looking out for number one.

Savage says he is a cheap shot artist and he will cheap shot Crush all he wants, and he'll give him another one at the Meadowlands.

The 1-2-3 Kid beats Glenn Ruth.

It's time for Reo's Roundup. Reo Rodgers interviews Shawn Michaels, whom he calls the undisputed WWF Intercontinental Champion. Shawn shows up in a suit, and says everyone is grateful that the Intercontinental Champion is back in town. He says WWF President Jack Tunney suspended him and stripped him of the title for not making contractual obligations, and says he answers to no man, follows no rules, and comes and goes as he pleases. If he feels like going out on his boat in Texas instead of defending the title at Madison Square Garden, he is going to do it. As for Razor Ramon, him being the Intercontinental Champion concerns him, as he looks like he combs his hair with a pork chop, spent his whole life in the gutter, and strapped a gold belt along his waist and suddenly called himself the Intercontinental Champion. He is afraid this will cause an epidemic, as any joe (or Jose) can get a gold belt anywhere and call himself a champion. He then says there is only one undisputed WWF Intercontinental Champion, and it is him. Suddenly, Razor Ramon shows up and tells Shawn he has been hearing him tell the whole world that he is the undisputed Intercontinental Champion, and if it was up to him, he would take the gold the easy way. All he has to do is beat him one, two, three, but just like his whole life, he has to do it the hard way, go through 19 of the best and fight his way from the bottom to the very top, where he likes it. He then says to say hello to the real Intercontinental champ. Shawn blows bubble gum in his face, but Razor pops it with his toothpick and apologizes for bursting his bubble.

Borga says he did not lose and that Lex Luger cheated the last time they met, and next week, he will finish Lex Luger once and for all and show everyone he is no hero. Luger says he will get a chance to prove that next week, because when he gets in the ring, they are face-to-face, and forearm pad or no forearm pad, he wants to settle this and once for all because he and the fans are tired of listening to him. He cannot wait to take him out one more time, as there will be no more excuses when the square off in the Meadowlands.

Cornette says he knows the effort it will take to put one man in the casket for the Casket Match, as he explains as there are no rules and the only way to win is to get a man in the casket and close the lid. He says the fans at Madison Square Garden will see something the likes of which they have never seen before in the Casket Match, and that Yokozuna will win. Paul Bearer tells Cornette to go ahead and laugh, but the clock on his embalming room wall is ticking and everything is in order, and he, the casket and The Undertaker is ready. The Undertaker tells Yokozuna that when he is finished battering his Japanese pulp carcass, the cement at Madison Square Garden will erupt, and out will come the gargoyles to take the casket into eternal darkness.

J.B. Yetter is the honorary ring announcer for the next match. We also hear from Lex Luger, who tells us to just say no to drugs.

Adam Bomb beats Adam Bomb beats Mike Bucci.

The Survivor Series encore is this Tuesday at 8 PM Eastern and Pacific on pay-per-view!

Ray Rougeau interviews Santa Claus. His bag is a bit heavy tonight, as he has gifts for some nearby children as well as for Ray Rougeau. After one child gets a big red cowboy hat and another one gets a Bret "Hit Man" Hart foam finger, Ray Rougeau gets an Undertaker teddy bear.

Shawn Michaels beats Dan Dubiel.

WWF Posters 8 is now available on newsstands everywhere.

Doink introduces another Doink: a smaller Doink named Dink, whom Doink brings out on a little red wagon.

Doink beats Sid Garrison. Before the match, Doink pranks Garrison, who pulls a multi-colored cloth out of Doink's arm, and even has Dink thrown at him. After the match, Dink "pins" Garrison and Doink counts the "pinfall."

We hear from "Double J" Jeff Jarrett, who is back at Buddy Lee's Talent Agency with "R.V. Lee." However, he is hurried out of the premises by everyone working there, as he does not have an appointment. They tell him to stick to wrestling, and eventually call security on Double J.

Crush beats Paul Jones with the Cranium Crusher.

Jim Ross re-advertises tonight's show at Madison Square Garden. The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) will take on The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), and The Undertaker takes on Yokozuna in a Casket Match. He then interviews Razor Ramon and Diesel for Face To Face. Diesel says he will do whatever it takes to win the WWF Intercontinental Championship, and he wants to know what Razor Ramon is made of. He plans to beat him into a pulp and test him inside, and when all is said and done, he is walking away with the belt. Razor tells Diesel he is undefeated at Madison Square Garden, and if he can make it in New York City, he can make it anywhere. If he wants a fight, he will get one, as New York likes nothing better than a good fight and he will deliver.

Next week: Marty Jannetty! Diesel! The 1-2-3 Kid! Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo)! Ludvig Borga!

We see a short video package of this week's episode to round out the show.

Survivor Series 1993 - The Results

Lex Luger and his family wishes everyone a happy Thanksgiving.

The show starts with a rendition of The Star Spangled Banner.

Razor Ramon announces that Mr. Perfect "tagged out before the match could start." "The Macho Man" Randy Savage takes Perfect's place.

The 1-2-3 Kid, Marty Jannetty, Razor Ramon and "The Macho Man" Randy Savage beat Irwin R. Schyster, Diesel, "The Model" Rick Martel and Adam Bomb in a Traditional Survivor Series Match. Marty Jannetty and The 1-2-3 Kid are the survivors on the winning team. (During the match, Savage is eliminated thanks to a distraction from Crush, and Savage goes after him immediately afterwards. He is later banned from the building.)

Todd Pettengill interviews the recently reinstated Shawn Michaels, who has the Intercontinental Championship around his waist even though he was stripped of it upon suspension. Aside from wanting to be Superstar of the Year, he has to watch Family Feud host Ray Combs interview The Hart Family (Stu, Bret, Bruce, Owen and Keith Hart), who says that they're read to take on The Knights, whoever they may be, and make Shawn pay for what he did with their parents. Shawn is unimpressed with the fact that Bruce and Keith came out of retirement for this match, and it is readily apparent that Shawn Michaels is replacing Jerry Lawler at the last minute, making this Michaels' first match since the suspension.

Martha, Georgia, Helen, Ross, and Wayne Hart are all in attendance in the front row. After this, Ray Combs pokes fun at Shawn Michaels before he and The Knights (Red Knight, Blue Knight, Black Knight) arrive. Shawn Michaels taunts the Hart Family members in attendance. Ray Combs guests on commentary for the match.

The Hart Family (Bret, Owen, Bruce and Keith Hart) beat Shawn Michaels and The Knights (Red Knight, Blue Knight, Black Knight) after Shawn Michaels flees to the back. After the match, Owen, the only eliminated member of the Hart Family, confronts Bret for unintentionally being in his way when Shawn Michaels whipped him into the rope and distracting him long enough to be eliminated. Owen complains that he gets no recognition and that Bret gets all the glory, and Helen Hart is embarassed as Owen tries to appeal to the crowd only to receive a lot of boos. Todd Pettengill tries to interview Owen, but to no avail.

Bobby "The Brain" Heenan and Vince McMahon switch over to the Radio WWF side for the next match while pay-per-view commentary is now handled by Jim Ross and Gorilla Monsoon. Monsoon almost gets his hands on Heenan.

WrestleMania 10 will be at Madison Square Garden in New York City on March 20, 1994!

The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Pritchard and "Gigolo" Jimmy Del Rey) beat The Rock 'n Roll Express (Robert Gibson and Ricky Morton) when Jim Cornette hands Del Rey his tennis racket to hit Robert Gibson with from the top rope to win the Smoky Mountain Wrestling Tag Team Championships!

The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), Afa and Bastion Booger chow down on turkey as only they can as Bam Bam Bigelow proclaims his team ready for The Four Doinks.

Vince McMahon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan switch back to pay-per-view commentary while Gorilla Monsoon and Jim Ross head back to Radio WWF.

The Four Doinks are revealed to be The Bushwhackers (Luke and Butch) and Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo), going by the names Luke Doink, Butch Doink, Mabel Doink and Mo Doink, wearing Doink wigs and facepaint. Oscar also dons the Doink headgear and facepaint for Men on a Mission's entrance.

The Four Doinks (Luke Doink, Butch Doink, Mabel Doink and Mo Doink) beat Bam Bam Bigelow, Bastion Booger and The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) in comedic fashion without losing a single individual. After the match, Doink appears on the TitanTron and taunts Bam Bam Bigelow and Luna Vachon. (This is the first appearance of Ray Apollo as Doink, as Matt Borne, who previously played the character, has been fired for multiple drug-related rule infractions.)

Todd Pettengill interviews The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Quebecer Jacques, Crush). Jim Cornette knows The All-Americans (Lex Luger, Undertaker, Rick and Scott Steiner) well, and his team plans to crush all four of them.

The All-Americans (Lex Luger, Rick and Scott Steiner, Undertaker) beat The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Quebecer Jacques, Crush, Ludvig Borga) with Lex Luger the only survivor on the winning team.  During the match, Randy Savage makes his way back into the arena only to be pushed backstage by officials in attempt to escort him back out of the building, but Savage returns and the distraction is enough to get Crush eliminated by count-out. Also, Yokozuna and Undertaker fight each other outside of the ring to a double count-out, leaving the match a one-on-one match between Borga and Luger. After the match, it snows in the ring, and Santa Claus arrives. Lex Luger and Santa Claus send the crowd home happy.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for November 20, 1993

It is announced that Quebecer Pierre was knocked out by Lex Luger and is therefore out of Survivor Series.

This week, Vince McMahon announces that he will be joined by a brand new co-host this week. It is also announced that "The King" Jerry Lawler is on hiatus pending legal action, and that WWF President Jack Tunney has reinstated Shawn Michaels, who will take Lawler's place at Survivor Series. We then learn that Vince McMahon's co-host is Reo Rodgers, a satirical jab at "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes. (This tandem lasts for only one week.)

The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) beat Phil Apollo and Mike Bell.

Jim Cornette says that the name of the game for Survivor Series is elimination, and that is what The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Quebecer Jacques, Cornette, Johnny Polo) did by eliminating Tatanka, but The All-Americans (Lex Luger, Rick Steiner, Scott Steiner) responded by replacing Tatanka with The Undertaker before taking a page from their book and knocking out Quebecer Pierre with a forearm smash with the steel plate in Lex Luger's forearm. Cornette then announces that they have replaced Pierre with Crush, whom Cornette calls one of the strongest men in wrestling but also the world. Crush says that The Foreign Fanatics are men of honor who will fight and watch each other's back until the very end while The All-Americans will be wondering who will stab who in the back first. Cornette says The All-Americans will be eliminated one by one. Meanwhile, we hear from The All-Americans (Luger, The Steiner Brothers, Paul Bearer, The Undertaker). Luger admits that Crush is a big, strong man and a devastating force, but the All-Americans have Rick and Scott Steiner, and red, white and blue fever is running high for Survivor Series. Paul Bearer says The Undertaker is proud to be a part of the team, and represents all the Americans who have gone before them. The Undertaker says there is pride, honor and total domination in the team. The addition of Crush means he only has to dig a bigger grave.

Bam Bam Bigelow beats Scott Taylor. After the match, Doink appears on the video screen and makes fun of Bam Bam's Survivor Series team, then introduces his partners as four Doinks slowly fill up the video screen.

Razor Ramon is on the cover of the newest issue of WWF Magazine - available now - and inside is an article on Doink.

Jim Ross advertises a show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, November 27th with four main events. The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) will take on The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), Razor Ramon will defend the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Diesel, The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) will defend the WWF Tag Team Championships against The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner), and The Undertaker takes on Yokozuna in a Casket Match. (Doink vs. "The King" Jerry Lawler has been removed due to Lawler's legal issues.) Jim Ross then interviews Diesel and Razor for Face To Face. Razor says the WWF has done it again with the supercard coming to Madison Square Garden, and says Diesel has been lurking in the shadows as a bodyguard, but now the spotlight is on him. If Diesel wants the gold, all he has to do is come and get it. Diesel says you can call him a thug or a bodyguard, but you can call him clairvoyant, as he will be winning the Intercontinental title. Razor says he doesn't like Diesel, but Diesel is a lot like him in that he will do anything to get the gold, as he has already proved that he will.

We hear from "Double J" Jeff Jarrett, who is in a recording studio, unhappy with the guy playing on guitar.

On the Survivor Series Report, Crush officially replaces Quebecer Pierre in The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Crush, Ludvig Borga, Quebecer Jacques, Cornette, Johnny Polo).

Before the next match, Irwin R. Schyster says that for a town in the middle of nowhere, it sure has a lot of tax cheats.

Bret "Hit Man" Hart beats Irwin R. Schyster by disqualification. During the match, Mr. Fuji shows up and watches the match from ringside. Later on, Mr. Fuji trips Bret by the ankle from ringside while referee Earl Hebner is not looking, and Bret quickly gets back at him by hitting Mr. Fuji with a right hand as soon as he is able to slide out of the ring. After this, Jim Cornette and Yokozuna show up, and Mr. Fuji whacks Bret in the back with the pole of his Japanese flag. Hebner sees this and calls for the bell, ending the match. After the match, Irwin R. Schyster continues to attack Bret, but "The Rocket' Owen Hart shows up and fights Irwin R. Schyster while Bret Hart drop kicks Yokozuna off the apron. Referees have to keep Bret from going after Yokozuna, and officials have to keep Yokozuna from getting in the ring.

Jim Ross re-advertises the show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, November 27th. He then interviews The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) and Quebecer Jacques (accompanied by Johnny Polo) for Face To Face. Johnny Polo says that it is a rip-off and a conspiracy against him and Jacques now that Quebecer Pierre has been knocked out of action. Scott Steiner says The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Quebecer Jacques, Cornette, Johnny Polo) made a mistake thinking that if they hurt The All-Americans (Lex Luger, Rick Steiner, Scott Steiner, The Undertaker, Paul Bearer), they wouldn't hurt them back, and now Pierre is out. He tells Polo to get his trunks on. Rick says the Fanatics stuck their hand in the dog dish only to have it bitten off, and Madison Square Garden will see a human sacrifice in the form of Johnny Polo. Jacques says he will protect Johnny Polo, and says the 13th of September will happen again.

Fowler then interviews Lawler for Face To Face. Lawler makes fun of Fowler's tie, then says he has looked at the card and has noticed that Bret "Hit Man" Hart is not on it. He then says he and his parents had a summit conference and met with fellow Canadian, WWF President Jack Tunney, on how to get one up on him. He says that they are trying to bring in Bret disguised as Doink, and he plans to remove that facepaint and reveal who he is really is. If Doink is indeed Bret, he will end his career once and for all.

Bret "Hit Man" Hart vs. Irwin R. Schyster...next week on Superstars!

Ludvig Borga beats Dan Dubiel with the Torture Rack. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Yokozuna, The Quebecers and Jim Cornette.

The All-Americans (Lex Luger, Rick Steiner, Scott Steiner) show up. Luger says that although Tatanka will not be at Survivor Series physically, he will be there in spirit just like he is now. Luger then says he is privileged to take part in an annual Thanksgiving tradition, and he and the Steiners are very privileged to introduced their new tag team partner: The Undertaker. The Undertaker shows up with , then says that throughout all of eternity, he has walked alone, and his existence has been filled with eternal darkness. He has stood tall in his beliefs, and even when condemned for his action, he stood by what he believed in. Now, Luger and the Steiners stand up for what they believe in: American pride. In honor of their devotion, he will stand with them and he will survive with them. He says freedom will ring, and The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Jacques, Pierre) will rest in piece. The Undertaker then opens the bottom of his jacket to reveal that the inside is the original flag of the original thirteen colonies. The Foreign Fanatics show up to ringside absolutely livid, and referees keep them from entering the ring.

Before the next match, two Doinks show up on the video screen. They tell Bastion Booger that he is so ugly, they had to tie that they had to tie a pork chop around his neck to get his dog to play with him and that when he was born, the doctor slapped his mother. A third Doink pops up on the video screen, then all three of them laugh and tell Bastion Booger he will be eliminated first at Survivor Series. Bastion Booger vows to tear the hair and head off one of the Doinks.

Bastion Booger beats Joe Brenan.

We hear from "Double J" Jeff Jarrett, who is in front of the Ryman Auditorium Opry in his 1955 Cadillac with his driver Billy Joe Brooks. He says that he takes care of his property, unlike the corrupt country music industry, and and mentions that the Ryman Auditorium has graffiti on the front walls and is basically dead. He says that Conway Twitty is dead and buried, and George Jones' career is just dead. He says the auditorium reminds him of The Undertaker: dead, decrepit and in shambles. He plans to use The Undertaker and the WWF, and when he is done, they will have to rename it "the Double J-F" and the Ryman Auditorium will be "the Double J auditorium" and the home f the greatest country who ever lived: himself.

Before the next match, it is announced that Razor Ramon is on the cover of the newest issue of WWE Magazine, available on newsstands everywhere this Tuesday.

Razor Ramon beats "The Model" Rick Martel by count-out. During the match, Harvey Wippleman shows up and watches the match from ringside. When Razor goes for The Razor's Edge, Wippleman gets on the apron, distracting Razor and allowing Martel to knee Razor out of the ring. Razor alnds on his feet and confronts Wippleman, and when Martel goes for the double axe handle off the apron, he hits him in the gut, hits an atomic drop that sends Martel directly into Wippleman, and barely gets back in the ring in tim e to win by count-out. After the match, Martel and Wippleman have a shoving match, and Martel grabs Wippleman and threatens to beat him up. Adam Bomb shows up and confronts Martel, and Wippleman has to stand between both men. Suddenly, Diesel and Irwin R. Schyster show up to be the voices of reason to keep them united before Survivor Series.

On the Survivor Series report, it is announced that the official Survivor Series program will be available on newsstands this Tuesday. We hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that there was a recent survey done with 15,000 people who were asked who would be completely annihilated at Survivor Series, and that person will be "The King" Jerry Lawler. His family will eliminate his three knights, as they all want a piece of Lawler. They plan to get a few pieces of him and throws the scraps to his father and the family cats, as Lawler will be obliterated. We also hear from Jim Cornette, who says it has been a long time coming, but he and The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Prichard and "Gigolo" Jimmy Del Rey) finally have The Rock 'n Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) in a neutral location away from Smoky Mountain Wrestling officials, and they will take the Smoky Mountain tag titles at Survivor Series.

Diesel beats Chaz Ware.

Joe Fowler re-advertises the show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, November 27th. He then interviews Paul Bearer and Jim Cornette (accompanied by Mr. Fuji) for Face To Face. Cornette says one man is the most impressive physical specimen in the history of the WWF in Yokozuna and the other is the man who will meet his final resting place and whose time has long since passed in The Undertaker, and says the real problem is who will beat the other man so senseless that they cannot do anything about it, which he says will happen to The Undertaker before he enters the casket as well as Twilight Zone. Bearer says Cornette and Fuji can feel good in the fact that Yokozuna will be resting in some of the finest materials that The Undertaker personally picked, and that Yokozuna will rest in peace forever.

This Monday on Raw Lex Luger vs. Quebecer Pierre!

Next week: Bam Bam Bigelow!

We hear from Irwin R. Schyster, who says history will be made when he becomes the one to ruin Bret "Hit Man" Hart's quest to become WWF Champion.

He will win the WWF Championship, and he will make both I.R.S. and Yokozuna sorry as they both find out that he means business.

Fowler then interviews Paul Bearer and Jim Cornette (accompanied by Mr. Fuji) for Face To Face. Cornette says he and Mr. Fuji did not accept the match and says WWF President made them take part in the match. He says that everyone in the back is jealous because Yokozuna is unstoppable, and try to stack the deck against them. He says that last time they were in Madison Square Garden, it got wild; this time around, it will get even wilder, and one way or another, they will close the lid on The Undertaker and give him his final resting place as his time has already passed. Paul Bearer says last time got out of hand when Cornette tossed a bucket of salt into The Undertaker's eyes and caused the disqualification; this time, Yokozuna will go into the casket and there will be a giant cremation.

Marty Jannetty heads to the ring for his match when Harvey Wippleman gets in his way. Jannetty shoves him away, but Adam Bomb swings at him only for Marty Jannetty to get the upper hand. Referees have to keep both men from fighting each other.

On the Survivor Series Report, we hear from The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Jacques, Pierre, Jim Cornette, Johnny Polo, Mr. Fuji). Polo asks if the conspiracy theory against The Foreign Fanatics will ever end, as Rick Steiner pulled Jacques' tights to win the match (even though he didn't). He also announces that Ludvig Borga will face Scott Steiner on Raw, and Ludvig says it doesn't care what Rick and Scott will do as Scott's career will be over. Jim Cornette says The All-Americans (Rick, Scott, Lex Luger) are falling one by one, and this weekend, they will announce their replacement for Tatanka. However, Cornette has done his research, and nobody will want to be on the team because they are scared of The Foreign Fanatics, who are after elimination and survival at Survivor Series. He says the Fanatics will reign supreme at Survivor Series. We also hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that "The King" Jerry Lawler will be sorry he ever started a war with his family. He says it is one thing for him to be mad at Lawler and ready to rip his legs from his body, but he went to far and now he has his entire family in the building. He says Lawler bit off more than he can chew, and his Knights will be going down with him. Also, the match between The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Prichard and "Gigolo" Jimmy Delrey) vs. The Rock 'n Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) for the Smoky Mountain Wrestling Tag Team Championships is made official for the event.

We hear from "Double J" Jeff Jarrett in front of Tootsie's Orchid Lounge in Nashville, Tennessee. He calls Boxcar Willie an example of the corruption in the country music industry, and calls Billy Ray Cyrus "some Italian boy with buggy-whip arms who jumps around like Sweatin' To The Oldies with Richard Simmons." Jarrett says he is the best and that he also wants to smack Razor Ramon in the face like he wants to slap Billy Ray Cyrus, send Men on a Mission (Mabel, Mo, Oscar) back to "the homeless joint where they belong," and make the only "1-2-3" The 1-2-3 Kid hears is when he pins his shoulders on the mat. When all is said and done, everyone will be wanting to buy his debut album.

Before the next match, Doink shows up on the video screen and introduces his double to The Headshinkers (Samu and Fatu): another Doink. Both Doinks tell The Headshrinkers they will see them at Survivor Series.

Joe Fowler re-advertises a show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, November 27th. Fowler then interviews Diesel and Razor Ramon for Face To Face. Razor admits that Diesel has made a lot of impact since entering the WWF, but he will be in the Garden and he will be bringing all his gold. Diesel says some people think this will be a fight, but he says this will be a war and when they leave, he will be missing the gold around his waist. Razor says it's not about how many times you get knocked down; it's how many times you get back up. He has beaten 19 men to take the Intercontinental Championship, and he will do anything to keep it. He then says that if Diesel wants a piece of him, "don't sing it...bring it."

Adam Bomb beats Marty Jannetty by count-out. During the match, Harvey Wippleman stomps Marty Jannetty as Adam Bomb has the referee distracted.

We see highlights from the "Savage-Crush Summit" on Raw, where Crush and "Macho Man" Randy Savage shake hands only for Crush to turn on Savage.

The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) beat The Executioners (Pain and Agony).

Lex Luger says The All-Americans (Luger, Rick Steiner, Scott Steiner) have never been more ready than they are right now for Survivor Series. Tatanka, who is not here, has a match later tonight, as do The Steiner Brohthers (Rick and Scott Steiner), who are. Scott tells The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Jacques, Pierre) to pay attention later on, as they have never been more psyched and focused than they are right now. Rick says it will get wild and crazy in the dog pound. They are gladiators, which makes them survivors, and they will be survivors at Survivor Series. Luger says Ludvig Borga has said that he will start eliminating people this week, and they will be watching each others backs as they will be the ones to survive.

Bam Bam Bigelow is on his way to the ring when Doink is on the video screen with two buckets in his hands. One is for Bam Bam; the other is for Luna Vachon. He says the biggest surprise at all is that at Survivor Series, he will see four buckets. He then disappears.

Bam Bam Bigelow quickly beats Tim McNeany. After the match, "The King" Jerry Lawler draws a road map to Survivor Series on the veins on the side of Luna Vachon's face.

Joe Fowler advertises a show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, November 27th with four main events. The Undertaker takes on Yokozuna in a Casket Match, Doink the Clown will face "The King" Jerry Lawler, The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) will defend the WWF Tag Team Championships against The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner), and Razor Ramon will defend the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Diesel. Razor and Diesel are interviewed for Face To Face. Razor tells Diesel that he is coming to the Garden and this will be as high as he will go. Last time, Diesel tried to make a name for himself and failed. This time, Razor will bring all his gold, and if Diesel wants it after shining it for Shawn Michaels, he will have to go through him. Diesel tells Razor that when he leaves the ring that night, he will leave four or five pounds lighter as talk is cheap. Razor tells Diesel that if he wants to fight, he will fight, but if he wants to wrestle, he'll do that, too. Either way, the Intercontinental Championship will still be his.

The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) beat Bert Centeno and Chris Duffy. During the match, Quebecer Jacques tells The Steiners that they will never digest the beating they gave them for the tag titles, and next week, he will give Rick Steiner a personal beating he will never forget.

Razor Ramon is seen advertising Acclaim's Dual Turbo wireless controllers - currently available at K-Mart - for the Sega Genesis will playing Royal Rumble. You can also register for a trip to see Royal Rumble live at K-Mart.

The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Prichard and "Gigolo" Delrey) beat P.J. Walker and Mark Thomas. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from The Rock 'n Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson), who say The Heavenly Bodies are the best team Jim Cornette has ever managed. They may be in the WWF in a non-sanctioned match, but they want the Smoky Mountain tag team titles at Survivor Series.

On the Survivor Series Report, the non-sanctioned match for the Smoky Wrestling Federation Tag Team Championships between The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Prichard and "Gigolo" Delrey) and defending champions The Rock 'n Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) is made official for the event. We then hear from Ray Combs, host of Family Feud, who says that we will not see a feud between The Hart Family (Bret "Hit Man" Hart, "The Rocket" Owen Hart, Bruce Hart, Keith Hart) and The King's Knights ("The King" Jerry Lawler, The Red Knight, The Blue Knight, The Black Knight).

Before the next match, Ludvig Borga, who says that Tatanka represents all Americans, and in a few minutes, he will not only beat Tatanka, he will destroy him.

In a battle of the undefeated, Ludvig Borga beats Tatanka to end his undefeated streak once and for all, but not without controversy. During the match, Mr. Fuji shows up and waves his Japanese flag at ringside. After the commercial break, Ludvig Borga tosses tosses Tatanka over the top rope, and as Mr. Fuji distracts the referee, Ludvig Borga smashes the back of Tatanka's head with a steel chair, knocking him out. Borga then rolls an unconscious Tatanka back into the ring and pins him with one finger. After the match, Yokozuna shows up and joins Ludvig Borga in the ring, then both men bow to each other before Yokozuna hits Tatanka with the Banzai Drop as Ludvig Borga holds Tatanka down.Suddenly, Lex Luger is seen fighting off The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) before running towards the ring. The Quebecers catch up with Luger and pummel him as officials and referees try to restore order. Luger manages to slip ast the officials and goes at it with both Ludvig Borga and Yokozuna, cleaning house before covering Tatanka. Lex Luger screams for medical help as Tatanka is in pain.

Joe Fowler re-advertises the show at Madison Square Garden. He then interviews The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) and Johnny Polo for Face To Face. Johnny Polo says he is so nauseous from the fans saying they didn't beat The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) and that they are trying to duck The Steiners. On November 27th, The Steiners will get their shot, and if The Steiners beat The Quebecers, they will become the WWF Tag Team Champions. Johnny Polo says that will not happen however, as The Quebecers are the number one team in the sport today. Jacques congratulates Joe Fowler on his Halloween mask, then says The Quebecers are so hot Pat Riley is combing his hair like them. He says they have taken The Steiner Brothers seriously since they first met, and they will take them more seriously when they leave Madison Square Garden with the tag team titles.

We see footage of officials, referees and Lex Luger taking Tatanka out on a stretcher. It is reported that The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) were unable to help as they were padlocked in their dressing room and were just released.

Next week: The 1-2-3 Kid! Crush! Rick Steiner vs. Quebecer Jacques!

Raw Deal - Raw recap for October 25, 1993

Crush, now in darker clothing and matching facepaint, beats Phil Apollo in his first match as a heel with the Cranium Crusher. Crush attacks Apollo further after the match.

Johnny Polo makes fun of the match between The 1-2-3 Kid and Marty Jannetty happening next, saying he could beat both of them with both arms tied behind his back despite being a manager.

The 1-2-3 Kid and Marty Janetty fight to a double-count out after the ref is unintentionally knocked out and The Kid misses a dive over the top rope. During the match, Johnny Polo shows up and trips both of them on separate occasions, and after the match, Jannetty gets his revenge by tossing Polo into the ring so he and The Kid can beat him up.

Doink beats Barry Horowitz, then heads back to the back on his scooter.

Jim Cornette is seen with The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, Jacques, Pierre, Johnny Polo, Mr. Fuji), putting the team on a pedestal before saying that The All-Americans (Lex Luger, Tatanka, Rick Steiner, Scott Steiner) won't be able to stand up to them as they have an international flavor that is coming at them. Ludvig Borga says his beef is with Luger, and tells him to cash his last check as this will be his last match in the WWF after he breaks his back and ends his career. Yokozuna says something in Japanese.

Bret "Hit Man" Hart tells "The King" Jerry Lawler that he will bring knights into the ring and step up against his family in a family feud. He and his brothers all hate Lawler's guts, and Lawler will pay severely for everything he has said about his family when he and his brothers give a new meaning to the term "Hart attack."

Bastion Booger beats Ray Roy.

Joe Fowler advertises a show at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York for next Friday night with a quadruple main event.

Fowler then interviews the team of Irwin R. Schyster and Diesel and the team of Razor Ramon and Mr. Perfect for Face To Face. I.R.S. tells Razor and Perfect that he is not a fool, because Diesel gave Razor 18 stitches the last time they were in the Nassau Coliseum. He then says it is his turn, because nobody makes a fool out of him on national television. Razor tells I.R.S. he got eaten at Raw, and he had hiss hot in the Intercontinental Championship Battle Royal, and Mr. Perfect interjects that he tossed Diesel out of the ring during that battle royal. Razor says all the talk ends on Frinday night when they settle the score. Diesel says last time, he left them laying like a couple of punks, and this time they will do audit and Razor and Mr. Perfect will be paying the penalty. Perfect tells Diesel that he is going down, and tells I.R.S. not to hang out with trash as he will be thrown out with it.

Ludvig Borga vs. Tatanka: next week on Superstars!

Before the next match, Irwin R. Schsyter calls the ring announcer a run-of-the-mill tax cheat for deducting $800 off his tuxedo and making a $3,000 write-off for his toupee. He calls the crowd tax cheats who use the system and cheat on their taxes because that is all they know.

Irwin R. Schyster beats Ken Garrison.

The Rock 'n Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) beat Flex Armstrong and Richie Rich. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Jim Cornette, who says that for the last ten years, The Rock 'n Roll Express have defeated every tag team he has managed. They may be the Smoky Mountain Wrestling Tag Team Champions, but The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Prichard and "Gigolo" Jimmy Delrey rule Smoky Mountain Wrestling and will soon rule the World Wrestling Federation. He says that while the Express may feel jealously, all he and the Heavenly Bodies feel is hatred.

We se Jeff Jarrett in Nashville, Tennessee. He is here today at Buddy Lee Attractions, the premiere talent agency in the city, as they will not give him a break as he is not from outside of Nashville. He says that Willie Nelson cannot "carry a tune in a bucket" who is "a stranger to music." He then says he has the greatest voice and claims he is the world's greatest singer and wrestler, and says he will prove it to the stars of the WWF. After he is finished using the WWF, he will come back to Buddy Lee Attractions, and Buddy Lee will crawl on his knees and plead and beg for him to sign the dotted line so he can say he signed him.

Diesel beats Ralph Mosca.

Two new matches are made for Survivor Series: The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), Bastion Booger and Bam Bam Bigelow square off against four Doinks in a Traditional Survivor Series 4-on-4 Match.

Joe Fowler re-advertises the show at Nassau Coliseum. He then interviews Lex Luger and Ludvig Borga for Face To Face. Luger says it has been a long wait, but he finally gets Ludvig Borga in the ring after all the disparaging remarks about him and America, and now he can see if he can back it up in the ring when he cleans the garbage up in Nassau Coliseum. Ludvig Borga says that Luger is right about taking out the garbage, as he is the "garbage driver" of America. This Friday night, he will show all the Americans what their hero is all about. When he is through with him, his hero role will be played out and he will end his career. Luger says Ludvig will see what Ameria and the top competition in the WWF is all about on Friday night.

Next week: The Smoking Gunns (! Bam Bam Bigelow! The Steiner Brothers! Ludvig Borga vs. Tatanka!

Survivor Series has sold out in one hour this year despite no matches being announced. That's changed with the All-Americans (Tatanka, Rick and Scott Steiner and team captain Lex Luger) vs. The Foreign Fanatics (Ludvi Borga, Jacques and Pierre of the Quebecers and team captain Yokozuna) being announced as the traditional 4-on-4 Survivor Series main event for this year.

Bam Bam Bigelow beats Dennis Diamond.

Diesel makes another plea to get Shawn Michaels' suspension lifted by tricking people into voting "yes."

Bobby "The Brain" Heenan hosts the "Crush-Savage Summit." Crush shows up first, and he shows up with Mr. Fuji. Crush says that Savage couldn't handle Crush being higher on the food chain than him, and that Savage didn't have his back when he faced Yokozuna only to be hit by four Banzai Drops, and that Savage wanted him out of the WWF. After saying that Mr. Fuji's word is gold to him and not Savage's, he tells Savage to stay out of his life. Savage gets in the ring and tells Crush to give him a chance to talk it out with him, but Crush says it's too late as Savage tells him to shake his hand so they can work it out. Heenan tells him not to shake hands, but Crush pushes him aside and tells him to shut up. After much hesitation, Crush and Savage shake hands. As they leave the ring, however, Crush double-crosses Savage and viciously attacks him, and Crush's heel turn is complete. Yokozuna and Jim Cornette show up as officials check on Savage. Yokozuna and Crush bow to one another, then they both bow to Fuji. The officials have to keep Crush and Savage separated as Crush tries to attack Savage again, this time with the Cranium Crusher. He then tosses Savage into the ring, and Crush finishes Savage off with a super-kick before leaving him to the mercy of a Banzai Drop from Yokozuna. Savage is pulled out of the ring by officials before Yokozuna can go for a second one.

Randy Savage has suffered a lacerated tongue at the hands of Crush.

He says that this time, things will be different. Diesel says his right hand will do the talking, and Mr. Perfect says he has seen guys like Diesel come and go in the WWF, and now he is standing next to Razor Ramon. Diesel will be looking at both him and Razor, and Mr. Perfect makes it clear that Diesel is the man that he wants after what he did to The 1-2-3 Kid. Irwin R. Schyster says Mr. Perfect has the wrong person on his back, and he will pay for it in Nassau Coliseum.

Pat Tanaka pays homage to Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji in footage from earlier today.

The 1-2-3 Kid beats Pat Tanaka.

We get a look at "Double J" Jeff Jarrett, who is in front of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. He was born into a wrestling family, and he was predestined to become the greatest wrestler of all-time, but he is coming to WWF to not only prove that, but to prove he is the greatest country singer of all time, as he has more talent, stage presence and charisma than anyone else. However, he has yet to get noticed in the country music business due to the fact that he is from Nashville and due to the corrupt politics in the business. He plans to use the WWF to get noticed, and the country music business will come crawling to him, begging him to sign a contract. When that happens, the sign for the Country Music Hall of Fame will be replaced with a statue of himself and the Hall of Fame itself will be a shrine dedicated to him.

In a rare twist, Jerry Seavey and Mike Davis beat The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) by disqualification after Pierre pulls Mike Davis out of a pinfall, even though Davis was never officially part of the match.

Fowler then interviews Bret "Hit Man" Hart and "The King" Jerry Lawler for Face To Face. Bret calls Lawler "scum," and says Lawler never beat anybody to become king. As far as SummerSlam, he did not lose anything and Lawler got stretchered out. At Nassau Coliseum, he will make Lawler pay for what he did to him and his family, and he will prove that Lawler is no king. Lawler says Bret's mouth is making promises his body cannot keep, and he finds it fitting that their grudge match is happening at Nassaum Coliseum "where all the losers congregate." He says this match will take place close to Halloween, when his mother "can come out of the house and look normal," and he wants him to bring his mother to the match to see him lose.

Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) beat Damien Demento and Rock Werner.

Bret "Hit Man" Hart says hearing that "The King" Jerry Lawler is the undisputed king of the WWF makes him sick, especially when he had him in the Sharpshooter for two-and-a-half minutes and came just short of ending his career. He can make one promise right now: if he can make a promise right now, it will be that if he gets in the ring with Lawler again, it will be the end of him.

He is glad to be the first one in line to give him a big U.S.A. welcome to the World Wrestling Federation and show him what competition is all about. Ludvig says he will give him a European farewell for his career, because if this is the top of the ladder, then he is not impressed with the WWF, Luger or America. When he pins him, he will stay down.

We see highlights of last week's Intercontinental Championship battle royal from Raw.

Mr. Perfect beats Red Tyler (whose tights are a tad small and make for a few posterior jokes on commentary).

Boni Blackstone interviews Bam Bam Bigelow and Luna Vachon. Bam Bam says there was nothing funny about last week, and says "The King" Jerry Lawler was right was about Doink. He let the confetti bucket prank slide the first two times, but the third time, he dumped water on Luna's head. He says that hearing Doink's name drives him crazy as Luna is in a frenzy. Bam Bam says he will make him pay for his pranks and humiliating him and Luna, and when he gets done with him, Doink will wish he was back in the circus on top of a tightrope.

Polo says the Smoking Gunns are rugged, but The Quebecers do not think much of them. Bart Gunn says The Quebecers do a lot of talking, but they do their talking in the ring, and Billy Gunn tells them that that they will become the tag team champs on the first shot just like The Quebecers did. Polo says The Gunns are climbing the ladder, while they are the top of the ladder and they will stay there after October 29th.

Next week: Two of the main events for Survivor Series are revealed! The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre)! The 1-2-3 Kid vs. Pat Tanaka! Ludvig Borga! Highlights from the Intercontinental Championship match on next Monday's Raw!

"The Model" Rick Martel says that he will be wrestling Razor Ramon for the WWF Intercontinental Championship, and he will be the winner because when it comes to him and Razor in the ring, Razor does not cut it.
