Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 3, 1993

"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan beats Shawn Michaels by count-out. However, Shawn Michaels retains the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Duggan is disappointed with Michaels' hasty retreat, and says he's not leaving until he gets another shot at him. He tosses a few chairs into the ring to get the point across.

"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan is still in the ring after the commercial break. He leaves the ring during the King of the Ring report, calling WWF President Jack Tunney for a shot at Shawn Michaels' Intercontinental title.
