The Undertaker beats Butch Banks.

Leslie Nielsen has been tracking down leads for "The Case of the Undertakers," but the trail has run cold every time.

Before the next match, "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase has a friendly exchange with Lex Luger. It doesn't seem like Luger wants any part of what looks like an offer from DiBiase, however.

He and "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase have a confrontation, and DiBiase shoves a stack of money in Luger's hand before leaving. Tatanka comes to and confronts Luger, and notices the money still in Luger's hand. Both men argue, and officials have to keep the men separated as I.R.S. try to stir the pot further.

Next week on Raw: The 1-2-3 Kid vs. "The King of Harts" Owen Hart!

It's time for The King's Court. "The King" Jerry Lawler's guest this week is whom he considers true royalty: "The King of Harts" Owen Hart, who shows up with "The Anvil" Jim Neidhart. Owen considers his SummerSlam match with Bret "Hitman" Hart a dream come true after years of dealing with him. He paints Bret as a bully since childhood and tells Lawler that his entire family has come around and sided with him. Lawler says there's still one family member who's still behind Bret, and Lawler has him on the show right now: Bruce Hart, who shows up and tells Owen that nobody in the family is on his side and calls him out on relying on Nedihart to become King of the Ring. He calls Owen a disgrace to the family, and both Bruce and Owen argue. Bruce tells Owen that there will be nobody to protect him in the steel cage at SummerSlam. Neidhart says there's one jealous brother in the family, and Bruce tells Neidhart that the jealous brother is him. The segment ends with Bruce continuing to argue with Owen and The Anvil.

Bret "Hit Man" Hart defends the WWF Championship against The 1-2-3 Kid next week on Raw.

It's time for The King's Court. "The King" Jerry Lawler's guest this week is The 1-2-3 Kid. He tells The Kid that he's pulling for him, and wants him to beat Bret "Hit Man" Hart "like the dog that he is." The Kid says that he has respect for Hart and is one of his biggest fans. Lawler replies by saying that with an attitude like that, he will not win the WWF Championship. The Kid says that he has too much respect for Hart to sock him in the nose like Lawler wants, and he has too much respect for himself to pull anything Lawler would. Nevertheless, Lawler tells him to win the title and win it for him, but The Kid tells him he's not doing it for anybody.
