Raw Deal - Raw recap for September 19, 1994

Lex Luger beats The Executioner (who is Executioner Agony instead of Pain this time around) with the Torture Rack. Before the match, WWF Magazine writer Lou Giannfrido takes notes on the match for a new section of the magazine concerning Raw.

Tatanka! Shawn Michaels and Diesel! King's Court with The British Bulldog! Next week on Raw!

Duke "The Dumpster" Droese beats "The King" Jerry Lawler after Lawler looks in Droese's trash can only to be squirted in the eye by Dink, who is lying in wait inside the can. Lawler chases after Dink, but as soon as Dink runs to the back, it's too late for Lawler to get back in the ring. Lawler tries to use the trash can as a weapon, but Doink suddenly appears behind Lawler and scares him. Lawler then escapes through the crowd.

On October 23rd at 12 PM Eastern/11 AM central, Action Zone premieres on USA Network!

The Heavenly Bodies (Dr. Tom Pritchard and "Gigolo" Jimmy Del Rey) beat Steve King and Mike Bell.

Vince McMahon interviews Bob Backlund in the ring. Vince is shocked by Backlund's actions as of late, especially in his recent match against Bret "The Hit Man" Hart when he finally turned back on his own values. Backlund says he's still the WWF Champion, and says that his standards are higher than ever before, before he goes on the rails about today's society and how everyone has destroyed the world around him. He says he put the crossface chicken wing on Bret Hart because he had the opportunity to put it on everyone in society, which he considers himself not to be a part of anymore. He then goes on about how the crossface chicken wing is the greatest hold in wrestling. The crowd begins to call Backlund a "has been." Vince then says that it was Backlund himself who said that for every hold, there's a counter. Backlund says that if someone can break out of the crossface chicken wing, he will retire from wrestling, then takes off his jacket to prepare for a fight. Lou Giannfrido, who was seen earlier in the night and has written positively about Backlund for years, volunteers to be put in the hold...and Backlund goes nuts. The camera man currently in the ring has to run for cover, and both Vince McMahon and "Macho Man" Randy Savage have to help the officials break the hold. Backlund then looks at his hands again as everyone tends to Anfredo. Backlund then calls himself "Mr. Backlund," and says that what just happened is what discipline is all about.



Bob "Spark Plugg" Holly (who is still called Thurman "Sparky" Plugg before the match) beats Richie Rich.

Yokozuna beats Phil Apollo. After the match, The Undertaker's gong sounds, and Yokozuna runs away scared.
