Raw Deal - Raw recap for October 11, 1999

RAW

This week, Robert James Marella, better known as Gorilla Monsoon, passed away at the age of 62.

WWF Chairman Vince McMahon shows up to start tonight's show. On behalf of the World Wrestling Federation, Vince says it feels good to be in Atlanta, Georgia. He then introduces the man who could become WWF Champion this Sunday at No Mercy: "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. Austin shows up. Austin says that for the last two months, he has been on the sidelines due to one particular asshole: Triple H. He has a message for Triple H: tonight, he is back, "you dumb son of a bitch." Ever since he had been gone, Triple H shows up and attacks Jim Ross and rattlesnakes, and says that does not scare him. When he gets him in the ring at No Mercy, he can rest assured that the WWF Championship is coming back to him. Right now, he is a little pissed off and he does not feel like waiting until No Mercy, and tells Triple H to come to the ring as he has something for him. Triple H shows up, and he tells Austin he hears him running his mouth, then Austin tells Triple H he has 40,000 people calling him an asshole. Triple H says that is really 40,000 people that he does not care if they live or die. He tells Austin he could walk down to the ring, and says there is not one person in the crowd who does not think he could rip him from one end of Atlanta to the other, but seeing as he is in the driver's seat, he is not doing that. He says Sunday will come soon enough, and says he does not have to scare Austin anymore as he has looked into his eyes and has seen that he is scared, as deep down inside, Austin knows that on Sunday, he cannot beat him. Triple H says nobody can beat him, as he is "The Game." After some more "asshole" chants, Triple H changes his mind and heads towards the ring, then circles it before slapping the headset off Jim Ross' head before shoving him again. Jim Ross finally has it with Triple H, and hits him from behind with the commentary table fan. Austin takes advantage of the situation and beats Triple H up at ringside. Austin then calls for Jim Ross to get in the ring, and he does. Austin holds Triple H back so Jim Ross can hit him, and Jim Ross punches Triple H in the gut. Chyna shows up and takes Jim Ross down before punching him in the face repeatedly, and Austin pulls Chyna off before punching her out of the ring. Triple H and Chyna retreat, and Triple H tells Austin that wants a piece of him and if Jim Ross wants to get involved, then the two of them can face him and Chyna later tonight. Austin asks the crowd to give him a "hell yeah" if they want to see him "open a can of whupass on these two bastards." He then tells Triple H he has signed his ass whipping.

We see a kennel full of bulldogs located backstage.

Mankind is seen waiting for The Rock backstage, carrying his "Rock 'n Sock Connection" jacket.

Before the next match, "Road Dogg" Jesse James sends his prayers out to Droz. He then calls out Hardcore and Crash Holly.

The New Age Outlaws ("Road Dogg" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn) beat Hardcore and Crash Holly. After the match, Hardcore Holly lays out the Outlaws with the scale.

Michael Cole interviews Mankind, whose guest appearance on GvsE will be replayed right after Raw goes off the air. Mankind admits this was a lot of fun, but he is really here to say that everybody makes mistakes, and that maybe he made a mistake hitting The Rock with a steel chair. He says that one of them is not being a team player, saying there is no "I" in "team," "Rock," or "sock." Before he can commit to making some lucrative endorsement deals, he wants commitment from The Rock. He says it is put up or shut up time, and that it is up to The Rock, though he does not give a damn as he can go either way.

The backstage bulldog pen is seen again.

Before the next match, Ivory announces that she will "beat the Metamucil out of that old sea hag, Mae Young," and that this match will serve as a demonstration to "The Fabulously Old Moolah" at No Mercy this Sunday. She says she will not old back, and that she does not care if that makes the crowd uncomfortable. She says that nobody knows what they have put her through, as she has to live with anxiety and stress in anticipation of them ripping her hair out and her clothes off. She even sees their wrinkled faces and hunched backs in her nightmares. She says that justice will be served at No Mercy, then tells Mae Young to strap on her Depends, as she will need them when she beats the regularity out of her tonight.

Mae Young vs. Ivory ends before it can begin when Ivory hits Mae Young with the WWF Women's Championship. During the match, The Fabulous Moolah shows up and grabs Ivory's hair when she tries to hit Mae Young with the WWF Women's Championship again.

Mankind is still waiting for The Rock backstage. Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler call The Rock and tell him about what Mankind is doing. The Rock says he doesn't like Mankind or could care less about him, and that if there is any physicality, it will be from him. He will be in the Georgia Dome in a little bit to turn it upside down.

Terry Taylor interviews The British Bulldog, who has no idea why there is a pen of bulldogs in the back, and if is a trick of some sort, he will get the last laugh. He also does not care what The Rock and Mankind do to each other, and come this Sunday, he will beat The Rock and get one step closer to the WWF Championship.

In footage from earlier today, Michael Hayes interviews WWF co-owners Shane and Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie says that she is feeling much better physically, and with the exception of the headaches, she feels okay. The most frustrating part, however, is that she can't remember anything that happens to her short-term and she has to write everything down. Tonight was supposed to be her wedding night, but she cannot remember any of the feeling she has for Test. Shane tells her not to blame herself, as everyone knows whose fault this is.

Val Venis attacks Mankind backstage, as does The British Bulldog. Referees and officials have to restore order.

As for The British Bulldog, he will not have his way with him at No Mercy, and that nobody cares about him. He calls The British Bulldog "a nobody" and that he has invited a few "Georgia Bulldog mascots" here later tonight as he has a surprise for him later tonight. When The Rock gets finished, Mankind shows up and wants to know where he stands. The Rock tells Mankind to take his jacket, his mask and his "ten-cent outfit" and roll it up into a ball, but before he can tell Mankind to shove them all up his candy ass, WWF Chairman Vince McMahon intervenes and tells him that he and Mankind have a tag team match later tonight against Val Venis and The British Bulldog. The Rock tells Mankind that he had better win one for "the Scooper."

X-Pac beats Faarooq on his own after sending Faarooq into Bradshaw, who is on the apron arguing with referee Jimmy Korderas. Before the next match, it is announced that Droz has greatly improved, and that there is a message from Droz and his family on WWF.com. After the match, Faarooq and Bradshaw gang up on X-Pac, then Kane shows up. Kane then stands on the apron as Faarooq and Bradshaw both powerbomb X-Pac. After some hesitation, Kane cannot stand it any longer and attacks Faarooq and Bradshaw. Kane helpds X-Pac down from the top rope, but X-Pac shoves him away again.

Jim Ross leaves the commentary table to prepare for his match.

We find out that the woman that "Sexual Chocolate" Mark Henry arrived to the ring with is his second sex therapist in a week as we see footage from Mark Henry's second sex therapy session.

She proposes some special intense overstimulation techniques to tame "the wild sexual beast" in Mark, and they will start tonight.

Kevin Kelly interviews Triple H and Chyna. Triple H says tonight's match should be a concern for "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, and that there will be nothing fun happening to Austin and Jim Ross.
