Take The Wrestling Challenge - Wrestling Challenge recap for July 18, 1993

In the continuation of last week's main event six-man tag match, The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) and Bam Bam Bigelow beat The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) and Tatanka.

Lord Alfred Hayes announces Lex Luger's Call To Action.
D Doink beats Ken Hamilton. Before the match, Doink looks at the camera, and the image on-screen splits into two before combining back into one to briefly create the illusion of a second Doink.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund announces that Lex Lugger and the Lex Express can be seen across New York City tomorrow and Tuesday. It is announced that The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) will take on The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), The 1-2-3 Kid will take on Doink and "Macho Man" Randy Savage will take on "The King" Jerry Lawler. The WWF Championship Steel Cage Match between Bret "Hit Man" Hart vs. Yokozuna will also take place that night. Okerlund then interviews the team of Marty Janetty, Mr. Perfect and Tatanka as well as the team of Bam Bam Bigelow, Diesel and "The Heartbreak Kid' Shawn Michaels, as both teams will face each other that night in a six-man elimination tag team match. Shawn says he doesn't want to give his team any thoughts that they will have an easy time, but none of their opponents could take the Intercontinental title from him. Diesel says that the last time he saw a team that formidable was when "Rob, Chip and Ernie were on prime time." Bigelow says that Perfect will be the first to go, and Tatanka will go out in flames. Tatanka says Bam Bam will be the first to go, as there is no love lost between them. As for Shawn, he's beaten him three times.

Mr. Hughes beats Marty Jannetty after turning a top rope cross body into a power slam.

It is announced that there wil be a Rest In Peace Match between The Undertaker and Giant Gonzales has been made official for SummerSlam.

It is announced that Crush has suffered a collapsed chest cavity at the hands of Yokozuna last week on Raw, and that he is currently convalescing at home.

It's time for The King's Court. Tonight's guest is "The Rocket" Owen Hart. "The King" Jerry Lawler asks Owen how it feels to stand next to the real king. Owen says he made a promise to his brother Bret "Hit Man" Hart as well as to his parents that he would not hit him and that he would save the beating to Lawler for Bret at SummerSlam. Lawler asks Owen what was going through his mind when Bret won the King of the Ring Tournament only for him to confront Bret and ruin his coronation. Owen says all he thought is that Lawler is a coward and that Bret is the real king, and that Bret will prove it at SummerSlam. The only reason why he never got involved at King of the Ring is because he promised not to get involved in the match and promised not to get involved with Lawler, but he would have loved to rip his head off. Lawler then mocks Owen's family, which ends up being the last straw for Owen as Owen tells Lawler he made a promise not to let anyone talk bad about his family, and he challenges Lawler to a match next week. Lawler tells him that if he is feeling froggy, all he has to do is jump, because he's ready and he's the king of wrestling. Owen tells Lawler that the only king he is is the Burger King.

"The Heartbreak Kid' Shawn Michaels beats Chris Hahn. During the match, it is announced that the newest issue of WWF Magazine is on sale now, and also includes an article on how Shawn took the Intercontinental Championship back from Marty Jannetty.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Doink and The 1-2-3 Kid. The Kid says August 13th will be his first night in Madison Square Garden when, all of a sudden, a second Doink shows up and walks around behind The Kid. Doink tells The 1-2-3 Kid that he'll have to turn him over his knee and give him a spanking at the Garden. Okerlund also interviews "Macho Man" Randy Savage, who says that it's time to get rid of all the clowns in the World Wrestling Federation, saying that you'll have to see it to believe it when it comes to what he is going to do to "The King" Jerry Lawler in the Garden.

Next week on Wrestling Challenge: Men on a Mission (Mabel, Oscar, Mo)! Mr. Perfect! The debut of Ludvig Borga! "The Rocket" Owen Hart vs. Jerry Lawler!
