Vince's Got A Shotgun - Shotgun Saturday Night recap for September 5, 1998

Kaientai (Men's Teioh and Sho Funaki) beat Julio Sanchez and Steve Corino.

We hear comments from fan about last Sunday's SummerSlam.

Dan "The Beast" Severn beats JR Ryder by submission.

We see footage of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's appearance on Regis & Kathie Lee.

The "Stone COld" Steve Austin "Bad To The Bone" T-shirt is now available for $25 plus $6 shipping and handling!

We see some highlights from the Brawl For All competition.

Jim Ross introduces Bart Gunn to the ring as part of a celebratory award presentation. Jim Ross gives him giant golden boxing gloves for his Brawl For All win, then Bart Gunn says that his victory was no fluke. He says that he had waited eight long months for an opportunity to come to his door, and he realized that he had to do the knocking. He did just that and knocked out three men to get to this point, and he tells WWF owner Vince McMahon that he will have to start taking notice of him. If there is anything that he needs to do to prove himself to anyone in the back, he will issue an open challenge to anybody who wants to face him in a Brawl For All-style match, and this challenge is not only for the locker room, but for the rest of the world.

We hear from The Rock, who says that he did what he set out to do: climb "The People's Ladder" rung by rung and grab. He then says if it weren't for Chyna, he would have won it. He says "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley can enjoy his reign and he hopes that it is a great one, but there is only one People's Champion. As time goes on, he proves day in and day out that he is The People's Champion, The People's Choice and the best damn champion there ever was. We then hear from Triple H and Chyna. Triple H says that the obvious symbolism here is that D-Generation X (Triple H, Chyna, X-Pac, "Road Dogg" Jesse James, "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn) are on top of the world. Triple H says that Sunday night was an all-time classic and that The Rock gave him all that he had, but when all was said and done, he took the WWF Intercontinental Championship and placed it back around his waist. There is just one thing he wants to know from The Rock after that: "Who's your daddy, big man?"

Dustin Runnels beats Lance Diamond. After the match, Runnels helps Lance Diamond up, but Diamond is surprised by this and gets out of the ring.

We see footage from last week of a WWF meet and greet Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum in New York City as well as a tag of war competition between the WWF Superstars, the local fire department and the local police department.

Tomorrow night on Sunday Night Heat: L.O.D. 2000 (Darren "Puke" Drozdov and Road Warrior Animal) vs. The Undertaker and Kane! Val Venis vs. D'Lo Brown for the WWF European Championship! Gangrel vs. Dick Togo! "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock vs. Bradshaw! The New Age Outlaws ("Road Dogg" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn) vs. Southern Justice (Mark Canterbury and Dennis Knight)!

Vince's Got A Shotgun - Shotgun Saturday Night recap for January 3, 1998

Vader beats Julio Sanchez with a top rope moonsault.

"The Lethal Blackman" Steve Blackman beats Jimmy Cicero by submission. During the match, it is announced that Jim Ross has the inside scoop on Chainsaw Charlie on The Ross Report on Option 3 of the WWF Superstar Line.

We hear from "Road Dogg" Jesse James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn before their match against The Legion of Doom (Road Warrior Animal and Road Warrior Hawk) at CoreStates Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on January 25th. Billy Gunn brags about stealing their shoulder pads and taking the tag team titles from them before nearly sending them out of the WWF for good, and says they may lose an arm and a leg next. Road Dogg says that they will not lose the tag team titles, because when they come to town, they take care of business.

WrestleMania 14 is twelve weeks away!

"The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry beats D'Lo Brown by disqualification after the rest of The Nation of Domination (Faarooq, Kama Mustafa, The Rock) attack Mark Henry. After the match, "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock runs into the ring and fights off The Nation.

After the match, Kurrgan the Interrogator gets in the ring and attacks The New Blackjacks.

We hear from "Stone Cold" Steve Austin prior to his match at CoreStates Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on January 25th where he teams up with Cactus Jack to take on The Nation of Domination (Faarooq and The Rock). He says Philadelphia, Pennsylvania likes to fight, and that they know him and Cactus Jack. He feels sorry for Faarooq and The Rock, since they are all muscled up but are sacrificial lambs. He tells them to run when the bell rings, because if he and Cactus Jack catches them, they are going down.

Before the next match, Jeff Jarrett asks how many times the WWF will drop the ball, as he has waited for weeks for a suitable opponent and the WWF needs the ratings that he can bring. He says he could beat Scott Taylor - a light heavyweight - ten years ago in his first match, and says he has had two matches against The Undertaker and Vader since he came back, and his hand was raised after both of them. He then says Scott Taylor is beneath him, and tells referee Earl Hebrner to find another opponent. Before Jarrett can say much else, Scott Taylor hits Jeff Jarrett with a baseball slide as Jarrett leaves.

Jeff Jarrett beats Scott Taylor with the Figure Four Leg Lock in his Shotgun Saturday Night debut after Scott Taylor's left knee buckles after he lands on his feet from a backflip off the top rope.
