"The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry shows up with a long rope and challenges anyone in the arena as well as anyone in the back to a test of strength against him. That challenge is answered by Vader. A referee places a piece of black tape in the center of the ring, and Vader is ordered to remove his gloves. Both men are then given opposite ends of the rope for a game of tug-of-war. After both men wrap the rope around them and grab on, the game of tug-of-war is on. After a back-and-forth struggle, Mark Henry drags Vader towards the center of the ring to win the test of strength. Afterwards, Mark Henry gets in Vader's face and brags, but Vader beats him up and hits him with the Vader Bomb.

Before the next match, The Jackyl says that he has adopted a new motto: "Give the people want they want." A woman with very large breasts who has accompanied him and his parade of human oddities (Kurrgan, Golga, Giant Silva, Luna Vachon) wearing a shirt that says "Jackyl Me Off" takes said shirt off to reveal another one underneath that reads "Smells Like Ratings."
The Headbangers (Thrasher and Mosh) beat The Oddities (Kurrgan and Golga). After the match, Giant Silva gets in the ring and choke slams The Headbangers after The Oddities go on a post-match attack.
We hear from "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, who tells The Rock that it is "Shut you hole" and not "Know your role." He says that he is coming after him and taking what he thinks is his - the WWF Intercontinental Championship - at Fully Loaded. He says that if The Nation (The Rock, D'Lo Brown, Owen Hart, The Godfather, "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry) wants to stick their noses in his business, then he will stick his in theirs, and when he does it, he won't do it in the traditional matter. He plans to show who the real mack daddy of the World Wrestling Federation is at Sunday night's two-out-of-three falls match when he smacks The Rock around, and when he is done, he will walk out with the Intercontinental Championship and there will be only two words The Rock will think of: suck it.
The Godfather of The Nation beats Dustin Runnels.

Bradshaw beats Harley Lewis.
We hear from D-Generation X ("Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, Chyna, X-Pac, "Road Dogg" Jesse James, "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn). Triple H and X-Pac tell Owen Hart to suck it, Billy Gunn says he and Road Dogg beat L.O.D. 2000 (Road Warrior Animal and Road Warrior Hawk) before and that they can do it again. Road Dogg says dinosaurs don't wear gold; champions do.
Kevin Kelly interviews The Jackyl and Kurrgan in the ring. The Jackyl says that just as the prophet came down and licked the wounds of the lepers clean, so today shall he walk into the miasmatic scum that is the crowd in the arena tonight. He says the stench that emanates from the crowd can only be matched by the stench that is at the top of Titan Towers, and the stench is the stench of conspiracy against him. He says that he is sick of the fact that he is constantly censored, kept off live television and banned from house shows despite being the best speaker in the World Wrestling Federation and "over like nobody's business." He says there are people in the WWF with limited intellect and ability who have jobs in the WWF today because of him, and that in six months, Kurrgan has gone from a corporate sideshow to the most feared man in the WWF. The Jackyl then announces that he will take over the WWF and that his revolution is coming, and he tells the fans - whom he considers too dumb to participate in "intellectual intercourse" - to listen to every word he says and "Jackyl off."

"The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock is interviewed in the ring by Jim Ross. Shamrock says that he has fought all his life, and he earned all his respect through fighting. All he ever asked for was respect, and he got it through blood, sweat and tears. As far as "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels is concerned, he has no respect for anybody or anything. When he steps in the ring with Shawn on December 7th, he will learn the word "respect" the Ken Shamrock way. He is not Bret "The Hit Man" Hart, but he will hurt him before putting him in a submission hold and making him cry like a baby.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for November 10, 1997
The show starts with D-Generation ("The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, Chyna, "Ravishing" Rick Rude) coming out to brand-new music, but only Rick Rude shows up. Rude tells all the "fat, out-of-shape Ottawa idiots" to shut their mouths, open their eyes and give their respect to "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels. Shawn, Triple H and Chyna show up, and despite promising to do so last week, Shawn does not show up to the ring naked, with Jim Cornette saying that he has heard in the back that "the Canadians don't deserve it." It is also announced for the first time on WWF commentary as they show up that Bret "The Hit Man" Hart has left the World Wrestling Federation because of Shawn Michaels and that there will be more details later. Rude congratulates Shawn on a job well done at Survivor Series, and Shawn says that he wouldn't have it any other way as D-Generation X is now on top of the world. Shawn says that he considered coming out to the ring and being politically correct, but since somebody else drew first blood, he is now going to unload on everybody. He tells all the fans chanting "We want Bret" that he beat Bret in his home country and with his own finishing hold, and if they thought DX was hell to deal with before, they haven't seen anything yet. Shawn then states that the World Wrestling Federation was not big enough for him and Bret, and put him in the Sharpshooter and heard him give up, then ran him "down south with the rest of those dinosaurs," and that he has two friends there who are not dinosaurs who will beat the hell out of him one day, whether he likes it or not (a reference to Scott Hall and Kevin Nash). Shawn then says he is the only man on top who will ever be #1 and be an icon...not Bret, not "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, not "Macho Man" Randy Savage, as nobody has the will to be the best and he will outwill the rest of them as he has something they don't: god-given, pure, natural talent. He says he is willing to be a wrestling champion, and Rick Rude agrees with him, saying Shawn will never say "I quit." As Shawn says he will never beat up a 52-year-old man, "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock shows up. Shawn tells Shamrock he gave him a wrestling lesson last week, and that he can't possibly want any more of him. He gives Shamrock the microphone and wants to see if he can put a sentence together. Shamrock initially tells Shawn "You aren't gonna give me shit!" then grabs the microphone and tells DX that are a disgrace to the human race, and tells Chyna to take a seat as he questions her gender. Triple H laughs, but Shamrock tells him that if he thinks that's funny, then he should wait until he gets a hold of him. He then immediately answers Shawn's challenge to take on anybody, anywhere, any time. He then tells Rick Rude that all he knows how to do is attack people from behind as he's an old man. He then focuses on Shawn's hair and chest, calling them both "sexy," then tells Shawn he's going to punch a hole in his sexy chest and that the rest of DX can't stop him. Shamrock then says he's got the microphone, and that he dictates when it's time to stop talking. Shawn then takes the microphone, says he makes the decision, and decides it's time for him to stop talking. He says Chyna (addressing her as "this woman") can knock him out any day of his life and that he should be lucky that Rick Rude doesn't knock him the hell out, then tells Shamrock that Triple H can beat him anywhere, any time. He doesn't blame Shamrock for thinking his hair and chest are sexy, then WWF Commissioner Sgt. Slaughter shows up, then gives Slaughter the same directions as Shamrock, but tells him not to spit at him. Slaughter says "you have a WWF Championship match against Shamrock." tonight. Shawn tells Slaughter he beat a man who is a legend in his own, then goes back on his word and says he can't defend the title tonight, although he usually would. Slaughter tells Shawn's he not wrestling tonight; Triple H is. Triple H says he already has a match tonight, and he'd beat Shamrock's ass tonight, but he has other business to take care of. Slaughter tells Triple H that the match is against Shamrock anyway, and to ensure there is no interference, he will be at ringside and bars Rick Rude, Shawn and Chyna from ringside. It is then announced that the encore of Survivor Series is tomorrow night.
Ahmed Johnson beats Marc Mero by disqualification when Mero is caught by the referee hitting Ahmed with a low blow. Mero gets disqualified, but he hits Ahmed with the TKO anyway. After the match, "Butterbean" Eric Esch, boxer and winner of 18 professional fights, is seen in the crowd.
Sunny is guest ring announcer for the next match. "Too Sexy" Brian Christopher guests on commentary.
Taka Michinoku beats Devon Storm to continue to the semi-finals of the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament. During the match, "Too Sexy" Brian Christopher distracts Michinoku only to be drop kicked off the apron. Nevertheless, Michinoku manages to hit the Michinoku Driver on Devon Storm. After the match, Michinoku immediately hits Cristopher with a top rope cross body to the outside of the ring, and Christopher immediately runs to the back. Michinoku will face Aguila in the semi-final round.
Jim Ross interviews Goldust in the ring. Goldust now has flames painted on the front of his hair and red lipstick on his lips as he walks into the ring with a cigar in his mouth much like Marlena. The words "I'm 1st" are in black on the back of his head, and he is now wearing big, white pearl earrings on his ears and a gold leisure suit. Goldust tells Jim Ross that he knows what his "fat ass old man" did to him, and got out of that - and out of his marriage, where he wasn't allowed to be himself - and while Marlena was gone, he found somebody who allowed him to express himself, which he says Marlena never allowed him to do. Goldust says he has a broken arm, and says he can't wrestle in his current condition when asked why he turned on Vader. Vader shows up, says nobody walks out on him. Vader tells Goldust he's known him for a decade that they have both fought alongside and against each other, and he knew what kind of a man Goldust was. He wants to know why Goldust turned on him. Goldust says he's an invalid and couldn't wrestle, but Vader tells Goldust that he told him he was ready before last night's match. Vader tells Goldust this will be straightened out one way or another, then punches Goldust in the gut and puts him in a powerbomb before walking out of the ring.
Michael Cole reports that Blackjack Bradshaw is raising hell in the locker room as Blackjack Windham is lying on the floor, and that he keeps mentioning "two jackasses."
The Headbangers (Thrasher and Mosh) bring out The Disciples of Apocalypse (Crush, Skull, 8-Ball, Chainz) to surround the ring for the next match, and The Jackyl guests on commentary.
The Headbangers (Thrasher and Mosh) beat The Truth Commission (Recon and Sniper). During the match, The Jackyl gets on the apron, but The Headbangers immediately knock him off, and The Interrogator meets the same fate near the end of the match (though he is not knocked off his feet). After the match, both teams brawl, and The Disciples of Apocalypse (Crush, Skull, 8-Ball, Chainz) get involved. The D.O.A. and The Headbangers come out on top as referees try to restore order.
The introduction to the show is replayed to signal the start of War Zone.
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin is interviewed in the ring by Michael Cole. Austin isn't even concerned about paying back Owen Hart for breaking his neck, because the fact of the matter is that he's back and Intercontinental Champion after sitting at home for three months and drinking beer. When Michael Cole tells him that he might as well paint a bulls-eye on his forehead after winning the Intercontinental Championship, Austin tells him he might as well paint a bulls-eye on Cole's ass and kick him around the building. The Nation of Domination's (Faarooq, D'Lo Brown, Kama Mustafa, Rocky Maivia) music hits, but only Rocky Maivia shows up. Maivia says that when he was the Intercontinental Champion, he was the best there was, and that come hell or high water, he will be wearing it again, and if Austin has enough manhood to accept his chalenge, then Austin's bottom line will read "has been, compliments of 'The Rock.'" Austin gives Maivia a couple of challenges in response: get a decent haircut and flush himself down the commode because he's a piece of crap. He accepts Maivia's challenge, then says Maivia doesn't suck because the fans said so; Maivia sucks because Stone Cold said so.
Before the next match, Jim Ross interviews Steve Blackman at ringside. Ross says Blackman put on quite a performance last night, and Blackman says he feels that he acquitted himself at Survivor Series. Jesus Castillo tells Blackman to get an interview some other time, and Blackman tells Castillo to get out of his face. This leads to Castillo, Jose Estrada Jr. and Miguel Perez to attack Blackman, but Blackman effectively fights them all off at once with his martial arts prowess.
Michael Cole interviews Road Dog "Jesse James" and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn backstage, and announces that Blackjack Windham is out with rib injuries, and asks them how they can accept the Bunkhouse Battle when it is now 2-on-1 and in their favor. Road Dogg says Windham was at the wrong place at the wrong time, and now Blackjack Bradshaw is "higher than a Georgia pine and twice as stupid." Road Dog and Billy Gunn then come to the ring, telling the crowd to get ready for carnage as the plan to get rid of both of The New Blackjacks (Blackjack Windham and Blackjack Bradshaw). Blackjack Bradsaw then comes to the ring and throws powder into Billy Gunn's face.
"Road Dog" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn beat Blackjack Bradshaw in a 2-on-1 Bunkhouse Brawl.
We finally see part two of the Jeff Jarrett interview. Jarrett asks Jim Ross where, in 1997, you can find a man who is 30 years old with 12 years of experience in the professional wrestling business with no steroids, no skeletons in the closet, and the star potential and looks that he has, and says that the WWF is getting him at a bargain. It has been Jarrett's lifelong and immediate goal to become the WWF Champion, and Vince McMahon will have the greatest, most respected champion that he's ever had. Jarrett says he's never beaten Bret "The Hit Man" Hart before, and says he wants to beat him, saying that he is superior to Bret in all aspects, saying Bret is "the best there was" and not much else. He says he will not be surprised if "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels beats Bret "The Hit Man" Hart at Survivor Series. Jim Ross then plays a game of word association with Jarrett. He says Bret is dedicated, says The Nation of Domination (Faarooq, D'Lo Brown, Kama Mustafa, Rocky Maivia) has strength in numbers, says he has respect for Mick Foley, and calls "Macho Man" Randy Savage the hardest-working guy he has ever known. He says The Legion of Doom has raw ability, and says of Eric Bischoff "right time, right place, right wallet." As for "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, he says "charisma plus intelligence equals success." For Shawn Michaels, he calls him "a phenomenal athelete," calls Triple H "a tag-along" and says he doesn't know what to think of Chyna. As long as Shawn doesn't act juvenile around him or mess with him, he's not bothered by his behavior, saying that Shawn is frustrated at something and that this is how he is venting it, and that Shawn knows he can still be one of the best wrestlers out there today.
Michael Cole interviews professional boxer, 18-time Toughman Contest winner and IBWA Super Heavyweight Champion "Butterbean" Eric Esch and his trainer Art Dohr. As he mentions his fight on December 6th, he says he's here to train but also to watch Raw live as his friends watch it all the time, and says the crowd is wonderful and that he can't ask for a better night. Marc Mero shows up and tells Michael Cole that if he wants to interview a boxer, interview him. Marc Mero asks Butterbean who he's ever beaten, other than truck drivers and unemployed steel workers and "these lousy Canadians." He also tells Butterbean to even touch, look at or come near Sable, as he is a real boxed and the real star of the team, that he is a real boxer, and that Butterbean is a nobody he can knock out in four rounds or less before saying Butterbean is the Pillsbury doughboy and he is Superman. He warns Butterbean not to touch Sable again, and Butterbean almost jumps the guardrail as soon as he puts his hands on him. Butterbean is confused as to what happened, and Jim Ross apologizes on behalf of the WWF to Butterbean for Marc Mero's behavior.
The Undertaker vs. Kama Mustafa ends in a no-contest. Before the match, it is announced that the encore of Survivor Series is tomorrow night at 8 PM Eastern, 7 PM Central throughout North America. During the match, Paul Bearer and Kane show up, and Bearer says it would be easy for Kane to get in the ring and bring 'Taker to his eternal damnation, but Kane really wants 'Taker to suffer like he did when he was in the fire. Bearer tells 'Taker that he must face Kane one-on-one, no interference, no excuses, so Kane can prove that he is superior. 'Taker tells Bearer to shut up before he rips his throat out, then tells Kane this is not the place and that Bearer is nothing but an infectious disease who has poisoned his mind. He tells Kane that somewhere behind the mask of evil is his little brother and that there is something good left in him, and asks him not to come to him as an enemy but as his brother, and to stand beside him as he will never fight him tonight or any other night, as Kane is flesh and blood - his flesh and blood - just like him, and if he has to go through the rest of the WWF, so be it. He tells Paul Bearer that he will pay for what he is doing, and Bearer says that all the agony he and Kane cause and all the souls they destroy will be 'Taker's fault, and for that, 'Taker will pay in the fires of Hell.
The show ends before "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock vs. Triple H can finish. Despite being barred from ringside at the top of the show, "Ravishing" Rick Rude shows up and watches the match from the entrance ramp midway through the match. He tries to interfere, but is stopped by WWF Commissioner Sgt. Slaughter, as is Chyna when she tries to interfere as well. Triple H knocks out the referee, and Shamrock goes for the ankle lock submission. Rick Rude tosses the steel Halliburton briefcase to "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, and Michaels smacks the briefcase into Shamrock's back. Triple H makes the pinfall after this, but the referee is pulled out of the ring as the show ends.
Ahmed Johnson beats Marc Mero by disqualification when Mero is caught by the referee hitting Ahmed with a low blow. Mero gets disqualified, but he hits Ahmed with the TKO anyway. After the match, "Butterbean" Eric Esch, boxer and winner of 18 professional fights, is seen in the crowd.

After the match, Michinoku immediately hits Cristopher with a top rope cross body to the outside of the ring, and Christopher immediately runs to the back. Michinoku will face Aguila in the semi-final round.

"Road Dog" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn beat Blackjack Bradshaw in a 2-on-1 Bunkhouse Brawl.
We finally see part two of the Jeff Jarrett interview. Jarrett asks Jim Ross where, in 1997, you can find a man who is 30 years old with 12 years of experience in the professional wrestling business with no steroids, no skeletons in the closet, and the star potential and looks that he has, and says that the WWF is getting him at a bargain. It has been Jarrett's lifelong and immediate goal to become the WWF Champion, and Vince McMahon will have the greatest, most respected champion that he's ever had. Jarrett says he's never beaten Bret "The Hit Man" Hart before, and says he wants to beat him, saying that he is superior to Bret in all aspects, saying Bret is "the best there was" and not much else. He says he will not be surprised if "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels beats Bret "The Hit Man" Hart at Survivor Series. Jim Ross then plays a game of word association with Jarrett. He says Bret is dedicated, says The Nation of Domination (Faarooq, D'Lo Brown, Kama Mustafa, Rocky Maivia) has strength in numbers, says he has respect for Mick Foley, and calls "Macho Man" Randy Savage the hardest-working guy he has ever known. He says The Legion of Doom has raw ability, and says of Eric Bischoff "right time, right place, right wallet." As for "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan, he says "charisma plus intelligence equals success." For Shawn Michaels, he calls him "a phenomenal athelete," calls Triple H "a tag-along" and says he doesn't know what to think of Chyna. As long as Shawn doesn't act juvenile around him or mess with him, he's not bothered by his behavior, saying that Shawn is frustrated at something and that this is how he is venting it, and that Shawn knows he can still be one of the best wrestlers out there today.
Michael Cole interviews professional boxer, 18-time Toughman Contest winner and IBWA Super Heavyweight Champion "Butterbean" Eric Esch and his trainer Art Dohr. As he mentions his fight on December 6th, he says he's here to train but also to watch Raw live as his friends watch it all the time, and says the crowd is wonderful and that he can't ask for a better night. Marc Mero shows up and tells Michael Cole that if he wants to interview a boxer, interview him. Marc Mero asks Butterbean who he's ever beaten, other than truck drivers and unemployed steel workers and "these lousy Canadians." He also tells Butterbean to even touch, look at or come near Sable, as he is a real boxed and the real star of the team, that he is a real boxer, and that Butterbean is a nobody he can knock out in four rounds or less before saying Butterbean is the Pillsbury doughboy and he is Superman. He warns Butterbean not to touch Sable again, and Butterbean almost jumps the guardrail as soon as he puts his hands on him. Butterbean is confused as to what happened, and Jim Ross apologizes on behalf of the WWF to Butterbean for Marc Mero's behavior.
The Undertaker vs. Kama Mustafa ends in a no-contest. Before the match, it is announced that the encore of Survivor Series is tomorrow night at 8 PM Eastern, 7 PM Central throughout North America. During the match, Paul Bearer and Kane show up, and Bearer says it would be easy for Kane to get in the ring and bring 'Taker to his eternal damnation, but Kane really wants 'Taker to suffer like he did when he was in the fire. Bearer tells 'Taker that he must face Kane one-on-one, no interference, no excuses, so Kane can prove that he is superior. 'Taker tells Bearer to shut up before he rips his throat out, then tells Kane this is not the place and that Bearer is nothing but an infectious disease who has poisoned his mind. He tells Kane that somewhere behind the mask of evil is his little brother and that there is something good left in him, and asks him not to come to him as an enemy but as his brother, and to stand beside him as he will never fight him tonight or any other night, as Kane is flesh and blood - his flesh and blood - just like him, and if he has to go through the rest of the WWF, so be it. He tells Paul Bearer that he will pay for what he is doing, and Bearer says that all the agony he and Kane cause and all the souls they destroy will be 'Taker's fault, and for that, 'Taker will pay in the fires of Hell.
The show ends before "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock vs. Triple H can finish. Despite being barred from ringside at the top of the show, "Ravishing" Rick Rude shows up and watches the match from the entrance ramp midway through the match. He tries to interfere, but is stopped by WWF Commissioner Sgt. Slaughter, as is Chyna when she tries to interfere as well. Triple H knocks out the referee, and Shamrock goes for the ankle lock submission. Rick Rude tosses the steel Halliburton briefcase to "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, and Michaels smacks the briefcase into Shamrock's back. Triple H makes the pinfall after this, but the referee is pulled out of the ring as the show ends.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for July 28, 1997
The Hart Foundation (Bret "The Hit Man" Hart, Owen Hart, The British Bulldog, Brian Pillman) are interviewed in the ring by Jim Ross. Regarding the potential disciplinary action upon Bret "The Hit Man" Hart for his actions towards Vince McMahon last week, Bret will still get his WWF Championship match against The Undertaker at SummerSlam. However, WWF President Gorilla Monsoon is looking for someone to hire as "WWF Commissioner," and when that happens, the situation will be re-evaluated. When asked what he would like to say to the American fans, Bret says that his talk with Mark Messier opened up his eyes, and says that there is no such thing as justice in America, with the O.J. Simpson trial being an example. He says Americans will do anything to screw you, and when he said that if he wouldn't wrestle on American soil if he didn't win the WWF Championship at SummerSlam, he didn't mean it in a literal sense, he meant it as a figure of speech, and that American will do anything to paint someone in a corner or stack the deck against them. Bret says that in Canada, people stick to their word, and his word is as good as the title that The Undertaker wears around his waist. He says fear and hope are the same underneath, but he hasn't lost hope. He says that even if "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels doesn't call it down the middle, he's still screwed, while Shawn spends the next 10 years at home, looking for his smile. Next week, he will be a five-time WWF Champion. He then tells Shawn to apologize to the Canadian fans for what he said about them last week for his own health and welfare, then says that America is one big toilet bowl, and if you wanted to give it an enema, you'd stick it in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania because it's the pits. He then focuses on The Patriot, saying he has aligned himself with the wrong people and is setting the wrong example, saying his siding with Shawn and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is like Bill Clinton wilking out with The Unabomber and Richard Simmons. He plans to set one more example by adding The Patriot to the list of Americans he will flush down the toilet, and he will flush him down the toilet tonight. He then says The Undertaker will be next, and that he will bring the WWF Championship back to Canada where it belongs.

Ric Flair isn't worried about the match, and tells Savage and Hulk Hogan that sometimes only a woman can say things as eloquently as they need to be heard.
