Vince's Got A Shotgun - Shotgun Saturday Night recap for August 29, 1998

The Disciples of Apocalypse (Skull and 8-Ball) beat Ace Darling and Devon Storm.

We hear from The Undertaker, who tells "Stone Cold" Steve Austin that he is the fastest-growing legend in the WWF but spends too much time running his mouth. He says that he may have no idea that he is about to face a legend slayer. He says that he has slayed what was immortal and beaten what was ultimate (references to "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior, respectively), and at SummerSlam, the end is inevitable and all Austin can hope for is that it comes quickly, as he will rest in peace. We then hear from "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who says that The Undertaker's ass belongs to him, and that's the bottom line.

"Bombastic" Bob Holly beats Dick Togo.

The S.T.O.M.P 2: Underwater Siege action figure line with underwater warfare armor and weaponry and featuring "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Rock, The Headbangers (Thrasher and Mosh), Owen Hart and Chyna are available now!

We hear from "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, who warns The Rock that he crossed the line on Raw, and at SummerSlam, it will strictly be between Triple H and The Rock. Not only is the WWF Intercontinental Championship on the line, so is "The Rock's ass," and if there is anything left of The Rock when he is done, Chyna is going to own it.

The Headbangers (Thrasher and Mosh) beat The Pitbulls (Pitbull #1 and Pitbull #2). (Interestingly, Anthony Durante, who is known as Pitbull #2, is called Pitbull #1 at the beginning of the match.)

We hear from "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, who tells The Rock that he will make him his bitch at SummerSlam after how he crossed the line with Chyna on Raw, while The Rock says he will show Triple H why he is the best damn WWF Intercontinental Championship there ever was. We then hear from Owen Hart, who tells "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock that he has done it before and will do it again, and that he will be going down in the Lion's Den Match at SummerSlam. We then hear from Shamrock, who tells Owen that he is stepping into the Lion's Den - his world, his zone - and to knuckle up. Finally, we hear from The New Age Outlaws ("Road Dogg" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn). Billy Gunn has two words for Kane and Mankind: you lose. Road Dogg then says they have two more words for them: suck it.

D'Lo Brown beats Dustin Runnels.During the match, D'Lo Brown seems to tweak his knee, and as Dustin Runnels is helping im up, D'Lo hits the Sky High before hitting the Lo Down for the win.

The show ends with a short music video of WWF Superstars for AC/DC's Highway To Hell, the theme for this year's SummerSlam.
