His new bodyguard is none other than...Sid Vicious, who hasn't been seen in WWF in quite some time.

But he says that when you have confidence, you had better back it up, and only Yokozuna is able to back up his own confidence going into WrestleMania 10, as he has put people in the hospital, wreaked havoc and overcome every challenge despite all the obstacles in his path to retain the WWF Championship. He tells Luger to get confident, and says Bret will be focused on other things as he will be torn that he had to face his brother Owen on pay-per-view, which will make him unable to win it all at WrestleMania 10. We then hear from "Macho Man" Randy Savage, who says he is ready to go with Crush at WrestleMania 10. It is then announced that there will be a ten-man tag team match between the team of The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bar Gunn), Tatanka, The 1-2-3 Kid and Thurman "Sparky Plug" and the team of The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), Irwin R.

He also says that Oscar stinks at rapper and that he is even better, and predicts that The Quebecers will bring the pain.

We hear from Paul Bearer, who tells Yokozuna that it is time for his journey into the dark side. He says Yokozuna may be deathly afraid, but The Undertaker will fill his special casket with Yokozuna's body and the deterioration process will soon begin. The casket is then carried off on a horse and buggy, then The Undertaker tells Yokozuna to fear not, as he should actually be terrified.

During the Royal Rumble report, we hear from Irwin R. Schyster, who says Razor Ramon has a bad habit of misplacing gold objects, as he has misplaced the "fool's gold" around his neck and will soon misplace the WWF Intercontinental Championship, as he will be taking it with him after Royal Rumble. We then hear from Razor, who tells I.R.S. that the time for talking is over and the time for fighting has begun.

Jim Ross runs down the card for Royal Rumble, then we hear from Shawn Michaels, who says that he is the undisputed WWF Intercontinental Champion and that he is in the Royal Rumble Match. He does not recognize Razor Ramon as champion, but he is putting his money on Irwin R. Schyster. He says everyone knows he does not like Razor, and that if he had to pick a friend, it would have to be I.R.S. He then says there is only one Intercontinental Champion, and it is him. He also predicts that he himself will win the Royal Rumble Match and earn a shot at the WWF Championship.

Crush beats Dan Dubiel with the Cranium Crusher. During the match, we hear pre-recorded comments from Crush, who says that he will come into the ring and go through 29 other men like a tornado in a trailer park and end "Macho Man" Randy Savage's career in the Royal Rumble Match.

Raymond Rougeau interviews Bret "Hit Man" Hart and "The Rocket" Owen Hart. Owen says that everything is okay between him and Bret, and things have not been better. He says tonight will be their night, and talks about how Bret brought a different WWF championship home and laid it on the dining room table. He then says tonight will be the night that he does that alongside Bret with the tag team titles, and he will get his big break and lift off higher than he has ever gone before. He says that The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) are going down and that they will be number one. Bret says that his altercation with Owen is water under the bridge and does not matter anymore, as they are a unit and a pair of brothers going to the top. Tonight, they will prove they are the greatest team in the history of the World Wrestling Federation, and when The Quebecers lose, they will be winning the WWF Tag Team Championship for themselves and their family as well as for the fans. He says it is showtime and that there is no stopping them now.

We hear Men on a Mission's (Mabel, Mo, Oscar) Royal Rumble Rap.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for December 25, 1993

Bret "Hit Man" Hart and "The Rocket" Owen Hart show up on the video screen, together again. Bret admits that there was a lot of friction between him and Owen, but he knew this was tearing the family apart and that they had to sit down and talk about it, which worked. He may never find out who the better wrestler was, and feels better about it anyway as he knows he can better channel his energy into a tag team match against The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) with the WWF Tag Team Championships on the line, as united, they stand, and divided, they fall. Owen says he said things after Survivor Series he should not have said, but it does not matter if they were true or not as 1994 will be their year when he kicks off with Bret right behind. Together, they will take the WWF Tag Team Championships and make 1994 memorable for him and Owen.

Shawn Michaels beats Phil Apollo. Before the match begins, Shawn says he is the undisputed WWF Intercontinental Champion.

We then hear from Jim Cornette and Mr. Fuji for Face To Face. Cornette says he and Fuji are more nervous about this event than anything else, and says Tatanka and Lex Luger have been humiliated and embarrassed numerous times at the hands of Yokozuna and Ludvig Borga. He says that one is humiliated and embarrassed that much, one would want revenge, but if Ludvig Borga does not break their backs, then Yokozuna will flatten them like pancakes. He is looking forward to seeing Luger again as he knows he has a few tricks up his sleeve, and tells Tatanka to do a war dance.

The Undertaker tells Yokozuna that soon, he too will be gift-wrapped, and wishes him a merry Christmas as we see a wreath on top of the casket he is making.

We then hear from Jim Cornette in a phone conversation recorded earlier. Cornette feels cheated and that the contract for The Undertaker vs. Yokozuna for the WWF Championship has been tampered, and says it is all part of a conspiracy by WWF President, Jack Tunner, The Undertaker, Paul Bearer and the fans. At Royal Rumble, Yokozuna will have his turkey late in the former of an Undertaker turkey with Paul Bearer stuffing.

Irwin R. Schyster beats Ralph Mosca. Before the bell rings to begin the match, Mosca whips I.R.S. into the ring post, then tries to look in the briefcase as I.R.S. tries to get up. However, there is a combination lock, and when I.R.S. sees him, he takes the boots to him, and the match begins as he tells Mosca that nobody touches his briefcase.

He says he will make Savage's worst nightmare come true. We then hear from Savage, who says he is concerned but he is a survivor, and when the bell rings, he turns on the switch and he becomes electric. He says he and Crush can take it to a different level, and if Crush shows up, he can promise that their match will be the wildest thing we have ever seen.

Next week: Razor Ramon! Ludvig Borga! "The Rocket" Owen Hart!

We hear from Johnny Polo and Jacques. Revenge is on their minds, and they have been waiting for Lex Luger. They are coming prepared, and what happened to Pierre will not happen to Jacques.

Jim Ross then interviews The Undertaker (with Paul Bearer) and Yokozuna (with Mr. Fuji and Jim Cornette) for Face To Face. Cornette says he knows the effort it will take to put one man in the casket for the Casket Match, as he explains as there are no rules and the only way to win is to get a man in the casket and close the lid. He says the fans at Madison Square Garden will see something the likes of which they have never seen before in the Casket Match, and that Yokozuna will win. Paul Bearer tells Cornette to go ahead and laugh, but the clock on his embalming room wall is ticking and everything is in order, and he, the casket and The Undertaker is ready.

Razor tells Diesel he is undefeated at Madison Square Garden, and if he can make it in New York City, he can make it anywhere.

He says that last time they were in Madison Square Garden, it got wild; this time around, it will get even wilder, and one way or another, they will close the lid on The Undertaker and give him his final resting place as his time has already passed.

He also announces that Ludvig Borga will face Scott Steiner on Raw, and Ludvig says it doesn't care what Rick and Scott will do as Scott's career will be over. Jim Cornette says The All-Americans (Rick, Scott, Lex Luger) are falling one by one, and this weekend, they will announce their replacement for Tatanka. However, Cornette has done his research, and nobody will want to be on the team because they are scared of The Foreign Fanatics, who are after elimination and survival at Survivor Series. He says the Fanatics will reign supreme at Survivor Series. We also hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that "The King" Jerry Lawler will be sorry he ever started a war with his family.

He calls Boxcar Willie an example of the corruption in the country music industry, and calls Billy Ray Cyrus "some Italian boy with buggy-whip arms who jumps around like Sweatin' To The Oldies with Richard Simmons." Jarrett says he is the best and that he also wants to smack Razor Ramon in the face like he wants to slap Billy Ray Cyrus, send Men on a Mission (Mabel, Mo, Oscar) back to "the homeless joint where they belong," and make the only "1-2-3" The 1-2-3 Kid hears is when he pins his shoulders on the mat. When all is said and done, everyone will be wanting to buy his debut album.

Before the next match, Doink shows up on the video screen and introduces his double to The Headshinkers (Samu and Fatu): another Doink. Both Doinks tell The Headshrinkers they will see them at Survivor Series.

Joe Fowler re-advertises a show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, November 27th. Fowler then interviews Diesel and Razor Ramon for Face To Face. Razor admits that Diesel has made a lot of impact since entering the WWF, but he will be in the Garden and he will be bringing all his gold. Diesel says some people think this will be a fight, but he says this will be a war and when they leave, he will be missing the gold around his waist. Razor says it's not about how many times you get knocked down; it's how many times you get back up. He has beaten 19 men to take the Intercontinental Championship, and he will do anything to keep it. He then says that if Diesel wants a piece of him, "don't sing it...bring it."

He is glad to be the first one in line to give him a big U.S.A. welcome to the World Wrestling Federation and show him what competition is all about. Ludvig says he will give him a European farewell for his career, because if this is the top of the ladder, then he is not impressed with the WWF, Luger or America.
