Vince's Got A Shotgun - Shotgun Saturday Night recap for February 8, 1997

Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train" plays as The Undertaker welcomes us to "Amtrak's night train to Hell," as tonight's edition of Shotgun Saturday Night takes place at Penn Station in New York City.

Clarence Mason guests on commentary for the next match.

The Nation of Domination (Faarooq and Crush) beat The Godwinns (Henry O. and Phineas I. Godwinn). During the match, Todd Pettengill puts some guy on camera, claiming he is his dentist and that he saves $100,000 a year on dental floss. Also, Savio Vega shows up to watch from ringside before the first commercial break. Later on, Savio Vega trips Phineas, and when Phineas grabs Vega, Faarooq and Crush double team Phineas to get the win.

Thursday Raw Thursday is this Thursday, two hours and live on USA Network.

A limousine pulls up at Penn Station. Out comes Hunter Hearst Helmsley, who heads to the ring, and Todd Pettengill interviews him. Helmsley tells Pettengill he has a better chance of seeing him ride an Amtrak train than seeing him lose the WWF Intercontinental Championship. When he interviews the building, he gives a few brief words to the crew of Entertainment Tonight, who are covering the event.

Hunter Hearst Helmsley retains the WWF Intercontinental Championship by disqualification. Early into the match, The Undertaker whips Hunter Hearst Helmsley into the referee, and Helmsley uses the opportunity to nail The Undertaker with the WWF Intercontinental Championship. The referee is back up after the second commercial break of the match. Later on in the match, Helmsley tries to use the title as a weapon again, but The Undertaker takes it from him and uses it against him in full view of the referee, ending the match. After the match, The Undertaker hits Helmsley with a mighty choke slam. He then calls for the Tombstone Piledriver, but Helmsley gets out of the ring and The Undertaker chases after him, eventually grabbing him and hitting the Tombstone right in front of a down escalator. Triple H lays in a sitting position as it takes him to the bottom.

Todd Pettegill interviews people in the crowd to no avail as the cameraman cannot get a clear shot of him.

Clarence Mason guests on commentary again for the next match.

Savio Vega vs. "The Portuguese Man-o-War" Aldo Montoya ends in a no-contest. During the match, Todd Pettengill interviews a fan who has an old Vince McMahon figurine from the 1980s. Shortly after this, Faarooq and Crush show up to watch the match from ringside before the commercial break. After the break, The Godwinns (Henry O. and Phineas I. Godwinn) show up to do the same. It doesn't take long for Faarooq and Crush to get in the ring, but The Godwinns get in there with them and clear them out. They then ask the referee to make it a six-man tag team match.

Tomorrow on Superstars: "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Vader! Bret "The Hit Man" Hart guests on color commentary!

Savio Vega vs. "The Portuguese Man of War" Aldo Montoya is now a six-man tag team match between the team of Montoya and The Godwinns (Henry O. and Phineas I. Godwinn) vs. The Nation of Domination (Faarooq, Crush, Vega). During the match, Todd Pettengill interviews a woman who confronts another woman for stealing her man, and the other woman asks Todd to hold her purse while both women go at it.

The Nation of Domination (Faarooq, Crush, Savio Vega) beats the team of "The Portuguese Man of War" Aldo Montoya and The Godwinns (Henry O. and Phineas I. Godwinn) after Montoya never gets the chance to tag in and Henry O. Godwinn chases a member of The Nation further into the building.

Henry O. Godwinn is seen trying to throw slop at a member of The Nation of Domination. The slops ends up all over Pat Patterson, who is on the monitor at gorilla position, asks Sunny if she thinks this is funny.

Todd Pettengill interviews Curtis Lee, founder of The Guardian Angels, who says The Nation of Domination (Faarooq, Crush, Savio Vega) needs an attitude adjustment and need to get a therapeutic massage and stuffed in some concrete.
