Raw Deal - Raw recap for March 13, 1995

The Headshrinkers (Fatu and Sione) vs. The Blu Brothers (Eli and Jacob Blu) ends in a double count-out as both teams take the fight backstage. It is mentioned before the match that Bob "Spark Plug" Holly and The 1-2-3 Kid were supposed to be in this match, but are unable to compete due to Bob Holly not being able to make it to the arena tonight, and that The Headshrinkers are taking their place. It is also noticeable that Afa and "Captain" Lou Albano are not in the arena tonight, either.

We hear more from Lawrence "L.T." Taylor. It is announced that Carl Banks, Chris Spielman, Ricky Jackson, Ken Norton Jr., Reggie White and Steve McMichael will be joining Lawrence "L.T." Taylor's "All Pro" team at WrestleMania 11. We hear from McMichael, who says that Kama has been supposedly talking trash about him and will be at Raw next week to get the bottom of this. We also hear from The Million Dollar Corporation ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, King Kong Bundy, Tatanka, Bam Bam Bigelow, and Kama, who is suddenly part of the group with no explanation), who tell L.T.'s all-pro team that they're stronger than any football team they've ever come across.

Earlier today, Vince McMahon interviewed NFL and WWF legend "The Big Cat" Ernie Ladd, who has done it all in both football and wrestling. He thinks Lawrence "L.T." Taylor's chance are not very good, and will try to help him get any kind of edge that he can, especially since Ernie himself didn't make it in wrestling right away and he knows that L.T. is "wrestling on emotion." He says L.T. is a great athlete, but needs to generate some element of surprise if he is to have a chance at WrestleMania 11.

Before the next match, Barry Horowitz says his chances are great against Jeff Jarrett, especially after becoming more confident and getting some encouragement from Razor Ramon.

"Double J" Jeff Jarrett retains the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Barry Horowitz with the Figure Four Leg Lock. Unlike his past matches, Horowitz really puts up more of a fight than usual.

Bret "The Hit Man" Hart has been sick and tired of Jerry "The King" Lawler ducking him for so long, and he promises to beat Lawler into oblivion tonight.

It is announced that Salt 'N Pepa will perform at Lawrence "L.T." Taylor's entrance at WrestleMania 11. We hear from the hip-hop duo as they talk about a few of the WWF Superstars in the recording studio.

We hear from Pamela Anderson and Shawn Michaels. Michaels says they'll be the talk of the town when he wins the WWF Championship at WrestleMania 11.

Numerous matches are official for WrestleMania 11: The Undertaker will take on King Kong Bundy at WrestleMania 11, and that Bret "The Hit Man" Hart will take on Bob Backlund in an "I Quit" match. Meanwhile, Razor Ramon gets another shot at "Double J" Jeff Jarrett's WWF Intercontinental Championship, and The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) defend the WWF Tag Team Championships against Owen Hart and a mystery partner. In the greatest announcement yet, Lex Luger teams with The British Bulldog to take on The Blu Brothers (Eli and Jacob Blu).

Before the next match, Jerry "The King" Lawler is accompanied to the ring by Bull Nakano.

Jerry "The King" Lawler beats Bret "The Hit Man" Hart by count-out when Bull Nakano grabs Hart's leg from below the ring and out of the referee's field of vision, keeping Hart from getting back in the ring. During the match, Bob Backlund can be seen sitting in the crowd, watching the match. Hakushi and Shinja are seen watching from the entrance ramp. After the match, Hart chases after Nakano, who hides behind Hakushi and Shinja. Lawler gets a cheap shot, but Hart gets the last word in and Lawler retreats.

Next week: Razor Ramon vs. Henry Godwinn! The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) vs The Heavenly Bodies ("Doctor" Tom Pritchard and "Gigolo" Jimmy Del Ray) for the WWF Tag Team Championships!

Vince McMahon interviews "Double J" Jeff Jarrett and Barry Horowitz outside of the ring. He gives Horowitz an Intercontinental Championship rematch for next week and even has a contract for it, , but when Horowitz signs the contract, Backlund puts Horowitz in the Crossface Chicken Wing and signs it instead. McMahon makes Jarrett vs. Backlund for the WWE Intercontinental Championship official, and Jarrett and The Roadie take their anger out on Barry Horowitz just before the show fades to black.
