The show begins with a recap of what happened to "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, and is explained as an example of what can really happen in the ring.
Ahmed Johnson beats Rad Radford. During the match, Bob Backlund can be seen in the crowd campaigning for United States President. After the match, Jerry "The King" Lawler interviews Ahmed Johnson, but the interview is more of a bunch of lame jokes from Dean Douglas. Ahmed tells tells Lawler to show some respect, or he can have him in the ring. Suddenly, Dean Douglas shows up, looks at Ahmed and says he might have what it takes to be a superstar, and that the road to superstardom takes place in "his classroom," which just so happens to be the ring. Ahmed considers this a challenge, and wants the bell rung so that he can take him on right now. Referees have to stop Dean Douglas from approaching Ahmed.
The World Tour de Force continues in Wheeling, West Virginia; Youngstown, Ohio; Canton, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; and Ft. Wayne, Indiana.
We see a video package summarizing "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels' medical woes thus far. It is revealed that he is going through the symptoms of post-concussion syndrome, and that he is hoping to return to the ring.
Barry Didinsky advertises the new Bret "The Hit Man" Hart T-shirt, only $20 plus $3.95 shipping and handling.
Aja Kong and Tomoko Watanabe beat Alundra Blayze beat Kyoko Inoue. (This will prove to be Alundra Blayze's last appearance, as the Women's Division was forced to dissolve due to budget cuts within the WWF.)
Brother Love is back with The Brother Love Show. His guest tonight is Bret "The Hit Man" Hart. He reminds Hart that he is a marked man with the WWF Championship around his shoulder, and mentions Hart's recent match with Diesel at Survivor Series. As Brother Love refuses to let Hart speak, he mentions a probable championship match with The Undertaker, and insinuates that Bret has made his mother cry by fighting his brother Owen Hart before mentioning the Harts' one last match at In Your House in a few weeks. Hart finaly gets his hand on Brother Love's wrist and reminds Owen of how cheaply he beat him when they crossed paths in the ring. As for The Undertaker, he'll cross that bridge when he comes to it. He tells The British Bulldog that he will find out it's a dog-eat-dog world and that what goes around, comes around, as he plans to redeem himself for what happened at SummerSlam 1992. After the show is over, Bret Hart and Brother Love argue until Bob Backlund sneaks up on him from behind and puts Hart in the Cross Face Chicken Wing, saying that Hart is a disgrace.
Hunter Hearst Helmsley beats John Crystal. Before the ring, we see a pre-recorded message from Henry O. Godwinn where he says that Helmsley will meet the Godwinn family - his pigs - up close and personal at In Your House. We also see footage of Howard Finkel covered in Godwinn's slop.
Razor Ramon and Marty Jannettty will face Sycho Sid and The 1-2-3 Kid at In Your House. Also, Jim Cornette issues an open challenge for anyone willing to face Owen Hart, whom Cornette hails as the man who took "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels out of commission.
"The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase shows up with Kama...who appears on crutches. DiBiase announces that Kama is unable to wrestle tonight, but he has paid for and bought the services of another WWF Superstar to take Kama's place: Sir Mo.
Next week on Raw: Dean Douglas vs. Razor Ramon for the WWF Intercontinental Championship!
The Undertaker beats Sir Mo. During the match, it is revealed that Kama isn't really hurt at all as he and "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase attack The Undertaker behind the referee's back. After the match, DiBiase and Kama retreat and leave the gold chains behind. King Mabel shows up and tries to get them back, but 'Taker the gold chains. Suddenly, Yokozuna shows up and tries to challenge The Undertaker. The Undertaker hands the gold chains to Paul Bearer as The Undertaker and Yokozuna square off, but King Mabel attacks Paul Bearer from behind and runs off with the chains. The Undertaker leaves the ring and heads to the back in search of King Mabel.
Next week: Marty Jannetty vs. Sycho Sid!
