Raw Deal - Raw recap for October 18, 1993

The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) beat P.J. Walker and Tony DeVito. During the match, Vince McMahon keeps calling P.J. Walker "Cory Student."

The fans get a chance to vote by phone on whether WWF President Jack Tunney should lift Shawn Michaels' suspension. Doink and Mr. Perfect argue over whether Michaels should be brought back, with Doink telling people to vote "Yes" and Mr. Perfect telling people to vote "No."

Irwin R. Schyster beats Scott Taylor.

World Wrestling Federation...meet "Double J" Jeff Jarrett. He wants to make it big in the country music business, but says the business is corrupt. He plans to use the WWF as a stepping stone to greatness...and a recording contract.

Tatanka beats "Iron" Mike Sharpe.

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. Bret Hart (Bret Owen, Bruce and Keith Hart) will take "The King" Jerry Lawler and "his knights," whose identities have yet to be announced. Family Feud host Ray Combs will also be on hand at the show.

Crush has arrived in the arena, and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan escorts him in. It is noted that Crush now has a mustache and goatee.

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.

64% of callers have voted that Shawn Michaels' suspension should not be lifted by WWF President Jack Tunney.

Next week: Diesel! The 1-2-3 Kid vs. Marty Jannetty! Ludvig Borga! Crush!
