Shawn Michaels retains the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Kamala after a distraction from Diesel. Kamala goes after Michaels after the match, but he soon gets decked by Diesel.
Live on the 4th of July, The WWF Stars and Stripes Challenge will take place. Can anyone slam Yokozuna?
Vince McMahon interviews Mr. Fuji and Yokozuna in the ring. Mr. Fuji is accepting all takers for his challenge to see if anyone can slam Yokozuna as he continues to discredit America. Vince reminds Fuji that someone will eventually meet the challenge and succeed. Fuji responds by mocking Hulk Hogan's fans, saying they destroyed Hulkamania and caused the little Hulkamaniacs to cry. Yokozuna says that American athlets are like American products: they're no good.
George Martin of the New York Giants, Jim Campen of the Green Bay Packers, and Tatanka accept Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji's challenge, which will be on the USS Intrepid.
The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) beat "Iron" Mike Sharpe and Barry Horowitz.
Vince McMahon interviews Money, Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) in the ring. IRS says The Steiner Brothers' (Rick and Scott Steiner) tag team title reign won't last long, and that they threw in a rematch clause when they signed the contract to face The Steiners. Ted DiBiase then makes fun of Razor Ramon losing his money to The 1-2-3 Kid, saying Ramon is stupid for walking out on national television against "a virtual nobody," not beating him, losing his cool and trying to bribe The Kid for a return match. The crowd chants "Razor" at this point, and DiBiase tells Razor to go back to the same school as the Steiners so that they can have three Steiner brothers: Moe, Larry and Curly. When Vince says if they're scared of the Steiners, they say they're not shaking in their boots and that they're not hard to find.
Adam Bomb beats P.J. Walker (misnamed B.J. Walker).
Crush beats Bastion Booger.
"Macho Man" Randy Savage is at Giants Stadium in New York with Joe Morris, who has also accepted Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji's challenge.
Next week on Raw: The 1-2-3 Kid, Bam Bam Bigelow and Mr. Perfect are in action.

Schyster) for the WWF Tag Team Championships, and Yokozuna will face "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan in a Lumberjack Match. Okerlund interviews Yokozuna and Duggan for Face To Face. Hacksaw says Memorial Day was a day for all Americans to show respect for all the veterans who put their lives on the line to keep freedom free, but now it's back to business and that this Lumberjack Match has been set up so Mr. Fuji doesn't stick his nose in the match. Mr. Fuji speaks for Yokozuna, and reminds Duggan that Memorial Day is giving the country of Japan a lot of money, and asks how the lumberjacks will get Yokozuna back in the ring if he somehow gets him out. Hacksaw says he will do it himself if he has to.
Kamala - without Reverend Slick, who is conspicuous by his absence - beats Phil Apollo.
We hear from The 1-2-3 Kid, who says that he was watching Superstars with his grandparents when he sees Razor Ramon offering him $5000 to get back in the ring with him. He says it is a really hard decision, but he cannot accept the money knowing what will happen to him in the ring.
"The Narcissist" Lex Luger beats Jason Knight.
"Macho Man" Randy Savage speaks to the children of P.S. 384 in Brooklyn, New York.

On the King of the Ring Report, we hear from Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji. Fuji says there is only one week left before Hulk Hogan meets Yokozuna for the WWF Championship which he claims Hogan stole. He says Hogan will be punished very severely and will scream in pain when Yokozuna squashes him and nobody sees him again. He says that Yokozuna will take the belt back to Japan where it belonds, where it be placed in a shrine from all to see. We then hear from Hogan, who says he has a bone to pick as he squares off with Yokozuna. He says that he will take care of all the family business, but this one is his and all the Hulkamaniacs, all of America and all the world will be watching him and wanting a ringside seat when he takes care of Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji. He says that Yokozuna will bow at his feet, and it wil be the "shaka-boom" heard all the world when he slams him onto the mat and sics Jimmy Hart on Mr. Fuji while he is at it. We then hear from "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, who says he is excited for the King of the Ring Tournament and focused, and that there is no way Bam Bam Bigelow is going to stop him.

We also hear from The Undertaker with Paul Bearer and Giant Gonzales with Harvey Wippleman.

Bearer says that Wippleman made the fatal mistake and that it will be the end of Giant Gonzales, as The Undertaker will pull out his eyeballs and spit into the open eyesockets of his soul. The Undertaker syas that the only question left to be answered is what will be done with the rotting carcass of Giant Gonzales.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 17, 1993
Lord Alfred Hayes recaps Mr. Perfect's attack on Shawn Michaels as he interviewed the latter. Shawn says that somebody showed up in disguise.
The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) beat Glenn Ruth and Tony Vadja in their Raw debut.
Vince McMahon interviews "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, who is now accompanied by security as he makes his way to the ring. Michaels says he's a man of his word when it comes to becoming Intercontinental Champion, defending it against anyone and being better than Mr. Perfect, even though word around town is that he's a reluctant fighting champion. Michaels boasts he will defend the title against anybody, anywhere and anytime. Suddenly, a man in shorts and a hoodie shows up. When he takes the hood and sunglasses off, he reveals himself to be Michaels' former tag team partner in The Rockers, Marty Jannetty. Jannetty asks Michaels if he's a man of his word, and Vince brings up the idea of Michaels defending his title. Jannetty says he's ready to gear up for a match with him, and the match for the Intercontinental Championship is on, much to Shawn's reluctance and chagrin.
"The Kid" (formerly "The Kamikaze Kid" and "The Cannonball Kid" from the last two weeks) does the unthinkable: after two weeks' worth of hard luck on Raw, he wins a match against Razor Ramon. The Kid runs right to the back before he is declared to the winner, and Razor Ramon is outraged.
Tatanka beats Scott Taylor.
Bret Hart takes on Razor Ramon, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan squares off with Bam Bam Bigelow, and Tatanka goes one-on-one with Lex Luger in the first round of the King of the Ring tournament. The last two qualifying matches are Shawn Michaels vs. Crush on Superstars and Kamala vs. Mr. Hughes on Wrestling Challenge.
Yokozuna beats Kamala.
Thanks to Mr. Perfect keeping Shawn Michaels from escaping and throwing his towel at him, Marty Jannetty beats Shawn Michaels to become the new WWF Intercontinental Championship in the first title change in the history of the program.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for May 8, 1993
Before the next match, Irwin R. Schyster says two things are for certain: that the tax laws will always change and that the people will always find a way to cheat.
Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) and Mr. Hughes beat The Nasty Boys (Jerry Sags and Brian Knobbs) and Kamala when Kamala cannot turn I.R.S. over for the pinfall and I.R.S. pins him with a schoolboy pin.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund advertises Monday Night Raw for Monday night, May 10th at the Manhattan Center in midtown Manhattan, New York. Advertised is a Lumberjack Match between "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Shawn Michaels for the WWF Intercontinental Championship. He also advertises a show at the Meadowlands Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Saturday night, May 22nd at 8 PM - with $2 off for kids 12 and under - where "Macho Man" Randy Savage and Giant Gonzales will have a one-on-one match-up. Okerlund then interviews Harvey Wippleman and Giant Gonzales. Wippleman says Savage will do his best impression of a BB gun pellet when he gets in the ring with Gonzales, and that all the "ignorant Yankees" need to find their way to the Meadowlands Arena so they can really see "the real southern boy from Argentina" embarrass and humiliate "Macho Man" Randy Savage one final time. He then goes on to say that Savage is an ignorant Yankee himself just for signing the contract for the match. He also interviews Crush, who will face Doink that night. Crush says he has one big score to settle with Doink, where he took him around the ring and took him apart, and says that the second Doink was the only thing that saved him. He dares Doink to bring his double to the ring.
The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) are coming soon to the WWF...
Yokozuna beats Sean Dakota. During the match, it is announced that Hulk Hogan is on the cover of WWF Magazine, and that "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart is on the inside.
We see the King of the Ring Report. Mr. Fuji (with Yokozuna) says that last time, Yokozuna was not prepared after going twenty hard minutes with Bret "Hit Man" Hart, but now, Yokozuna is prepared for Hogan and he will become the WWF Champion again. Fuji says Hogan will pay. "The Narcissist" Lex Luger says that he finds it amazing that he had to qualify for the King of the Ring Tournament, and says that Bob Backlund had to pay the price for that. He says that he cannot wait to face the #1 seed, Bret "Hit Man" Hart, as he will write the final chapter and put an end to his career. It is then announced that "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Papa Shango will square off to see who qualifies for the tournament this week on Wrestling Challenge, while Typhoon and Bam Bam Bigelow will do the same next week on Raw. Next, Razor Ramon will face "El Matador" Tito Santana for a slot at the tournament.
Crush beats Steve Vega with the Cranium Crusher.
We hear from Luna Vachon, who says that she will haunt Sensational Sherri's very breath and be her shadow in the darkness, and soon, she will wipe her from this earth. Then, she will be the goddess of the squared circle. Sensational Sherri says Luna attacked her from behind at WrestleMania 9, and on top of that, she attacked her again in the emergency room. If Luna wants a piece of her, she can come and get it, as she invented mean and she will take her anytime, anywhere, one-on-one.
Razor Ramon beats "El Matador" Tito Santana after using Santana's momentum against him following a top rope cross body and grabbing the tights to qualify for the King of the Ring Tournament.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund re-advertises a show at the Meadowlands Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Saturday night, May 22nd at 8 PM, with $2 off for kids 12 and under. Also on this card is The Mega Maniacs (Hulk Hogan and Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake) vs. Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) with the WWF Tag Team Championships on the line and Sgt. Slaughter as the special guest referee. Okerlund then interviews Money Inc. DiBiase says that they have had the tag titles for a while, and nothing will change. As for Sgt. Slaughter, he smells a rat with him as special guest referee, and says that The Mega Maniacs got frustrated at WrestleMania 9 and now want a referee in their back pocket. We then go to Sgt. Slaughter, who says that what happened at WrestleMania 9 will not happen again, and he will take care of the situation this time around. I.R.S. complains about The Mega Maniacs taking and spending all their money, but Slaughter says he was there at WrestleMania 9 and saw what happened.
Raymond Rougeau interviews Harvey Wippleman and Giant Gonzales. Next week, Giant Gonzales will face Tatanka, and Wippleman is reminded that he has not seen the last of The Undertaker. Wippleman admits that The Undertaker has kept on coming back, but that is because of sheer stupidity and that The Undertaker does not have enough sense to realize that when he signed for one more match with Gonzales, it would be his final match, and when The Undertaker gets carried out again, he will not get up and he will be carried out to stay, once and for all. As far as Tatanka is concerned, he will be the next in a long line of opponents eliminated from the World Wrestling Federation by Giant Gonzales, as Tatanka will get in the ring for a King of the Ring tournament qualifying match only to be knocked out of the tournament and out of the WWF. Gonzales simply says "Goodbye, Indian."

We also hear from Shawn Michaels, who says Pat Riley could use a cheap shot artist like himself on his team before he brags about tossing Mr. Perfect in a trash can, saying it reminded him of "Grover from Sesame Street" (it is really Oscar). He says Perfect should be challenging him for the Intercontinental title, as he is the man with the gold and the flawless record who is unblemished from head to toe. If Perfect wants a piece of him, he can get it, because being a two-time Intercontinental Champion makes him a two-time loser. Okerlund then announces that Bret "Hit Man" Hart will be facing "The Narcissist" Lex Luger that night.
"The Narcissist" Lex Luger beats Dale Wolfe.
Kamala beats Dwayne Gill. During the match, it is announced that an article on Kamala and Reverend Slick is in the newest edition of WWF Magazine.
In a match from Wrestling Chalenge, Mr. Hughes beats J.D. Stryker in his WWF debut.
The encore presentation of WrestleMania 9 is this Monday on pay-per-view!
This Tuesday, Andre the Giant is on the cover of WWF Spotlight Magazine. We see a video tribute to him.
Bob Backlund beats Anthony Howard. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Bob Backlund, who announces that Andre the Giant is the first inductee in the WWF Hall of Fame, and hopes to follow in his footsteps one day as everyone in the WWF is very proud of him. After the match, Backlund gives Anthony Howard a few words of encouragement, and they both walk to the back together.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund advertises Raw for Monday night, April 26th at the Manhattan Center at midtown Manhattan, New York. "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Mr. Perfect, who says that Shawn Michaels stuck his nose in his business at WrestleMania 9 and left him lying in the trash. He says he is not a piece of garbage and that Shawn is not a threat as he has beaten guys bigger than him. At Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York on Saturday night, May 1st, something big is going to happen, because he is perfect. We then hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that he feels a little bit naked and a little bit angry as Yokozuna was WWF Champion for all of 20 seconds and he has no respect for that at all. He plans on going back on the saddle and getting back on top, and says "The Narcissist" Lex Luger is the first on his list of people to wipe out as the nice guy persona is over, this is no bodybuilding competition and Luger is in for the fight of his life.
Next week: Mr. Perfect! Crush! The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu)! Yokozuna! "The Rocket" Owen Hart vs. Bam Bam Bigelow!
"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan beats Barry Horowitz. During the match, it is announced that Hulk Hogan is on the cover of the newest edition of WWF Magazine, and on the inside is none other than Hacksaw.
WWF President Jack Tunney announces that over much deliberation of Mr. Fuji's protest on behalf of Mr. Fuji, he rules that there was an oral contract between Fuji's party and Hulk Hogan, as Fuji laid down the challenge and Hulk Hogan accepted. Furthermore, a WWF referee was in the ring. Therefore, Tunney rules that Hulk Hogan will remain WWF Champion.
Papa Shango beats David Clements.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund advertises a show for the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, New York on Saturday night, May 1st. Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji show up, and Yokozuna steps on Okerlund's foot. Mr. Fuji says Yokozuna is disappointed about the outcome of WrestleMania 9. As for "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, Yokozuna laid him out once, but this time, he will drape the Japanese flag over Duggan when Yokozuna is done. We also hear from Shawn Michaels, who says Pat Riley could use a cheap shot artist like himself on his team before he brags about tossing Mr. Perfect in a trash can, saying it reminded him of "Grover from Sesame Street" (it is really Oscar).

Take The Wrestling Challenge - Wrestling Challenge recap for April 4, 1993
The show starts in front of Caesars Palace, where Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan discuss who they think will win at WrestleMania 9. We then see the footag of Doink attacking Crush from behind with the prosthetic arm.
Crush beats Barry Horowitz with the Cranium Crusher.
Bob Backlund beats an unnamed opponent.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan is trying to buy a T-shirt when Gorilla Monsoon calls him over to the casino for an interview with Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji. Mr. Fuji say that Yokozuna will take the WWF Championship at WrestleMania 9. We then see the contract signing between Bret "Hit Man" Hart and Yokozuna, which quickly ended in Yokozuna decimating Bret.
Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan are seen heading outside through the entrance door, and Gorilla gives Heenan a hard time for it.
The Bret "Hit Man" Hart/Yokozuna video package to the tune of Aretha Franklin's "Respect" is replayed.
Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan interview Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says he is all right after being maimed by Yokozuna. He knows he is going into WrestleMania 9 as the underdog, and that Yokozuna wants to crush him. He says it won't happen, as he is the best technical wrestler in WWF history and plans to prove to him why he is the WWF Champion. Heenan expresses doubt about Hart putting Yokozuna in the Sharpshooter, but Bret says he has all sorts of moves up his sleeve, and after the ten-minute mark, Yokozuna will be his.
The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) beat Les Parker and Jim Powers.
Sean Mooney advertises Monday Night Raw at the Manhattan Center in Midtown Mahattan, New York on Monday Night, April 26th. We then hear from The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner), who plan to beat The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) to get closer to a tag team title shot at WrestleMania 9.
"The Narcissist" Lex Luger beats Gary Sabaugh.
Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan interview Mr. Perfect outside of Caesar's Palace, who says that there is only one Mr. Perfect: himself. When "The Narcissist" Lex Luger shows up at WrestleMania 9, he will be broken into a million pieces like Evel Knievel, because he is exactly what he says he is: perfect.
Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan meet and interview Harvey Wippleman and Giant Gonzales outside of the shops. Wippleman says that The Undertaker will be destroyed by Giant Gonzales, just like how Virgil was destroyed by Gonzales on the most recent Superstars. Wippleman goes on to say that Caesars Palace will be decorated like a Roman coliseum, but Giant Gonzales says he will turn it into a Roman cemetary. We then see pre-recorded footage from The Undertaker and Paul Bearer, where The Undertaker says the sands fall rapidly through the hourglass and that the Giant Gonzales will soon take his rightful place along with all the battered corpses in the graveyard, and he will possess his soul.
Shawn Michaels says that so many champions have stepped into the ring at Caesars Palace, but none of them are like him, the Intercontinental Champion and the sexist man alive. He is then met in his hotel suite by Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, the latter of whom accidentally sits on the piano. Shawn says Gorilla is just like everyone in the casino who are betting it all on Tatanka. Shawn says Tatanka may have been lucky once or twice, but the Intercontinental Championship is going into WrestleMania 9 with the title and coming back out of it.
Kamala beats Chris Katowski.
Sean Mooney advertises Monday Night Raw at the Manhattan Center in Midtown Mahattan, New York on Monday Night, April 26th again. We then hear from Bam Bam Bigelow, who announces that at WrestleMania 9, he will face Kamala to see who the true beast is.
We see procession of gladiators and beautiful people bringing out Caesar and Cleopatra as Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan close out the show with "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviewing The Mega-Maniacs from this week's Superstars. Hogan says that everyone knows that the eagle is flying slowly and the flag is hanging low, but when you train, say your prayers, take your vitamins, believe in yourself and believe in him, that means you believe in the youth of America and in Hulkamania, and he cannot think of a better time that this Sunday for America to "do a 360" turn it around against Money, Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) for the tag team titles, so he can tell President Bill Clinton to sleep easy after Sunday. He says The Mega-Maniacs will bankrupt Money Inc. and seize all their assets before throwing them in a semi-trailer, dragging it from New York City to Las Vegas to Los Angeles while Jimmy Hart throws all the money out to ease the national deficit. Hart says he will line up all the major tag teams in the WWF, and there is no doubt in his mind that The Mega-Maniacs will wipe the floor with Money, Inc. before starting their world tour. Brutus tells Hart not to worry about him holding up his end of the bargain, as he is the detail man. When he climbs up to the top of Caesars Palace, he hopes the light bounces off the tag team belts at exactly the right angle so the light can go back to Venice Beach, California back to New York City so all the Hulkamaniacs will know that they are on the money. He then mentions the saying "When in Rome, do as the Romans do," and says they should feed Money, Inc.'s carcasses to the lions. Hulk says "the lions" are the hungry Hulkamaniacs who cannot wait for The Mega-Maniacs to take over the WWF and run roughshod, and that Money Inc. will just be a small snack for them. He then tells everyone not to worry about Brutus' face, as he and Jimmy Hart put his face through "the Hulkamania stress test" by breaking down the Brooklyn Bridge, breaking "the coconuts" on a bull elephant, and finishing knocking down what was left of the Twin Towers, and he couldn't break Brutus' face, which he put through every test known to man, including hitting it with a metal briefcase, which he does. (Thankfully, Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake is wearing a mask over his face.) He then asks "Whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on you?"
Crush beats Barry Horowitz with the Cranium Crusher.
Bob Backlund beats an unnamed opponent.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan is trying to buy a T-shirt when Gorilla Monsoon calls him over to the casino for an interview with Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for March 20, 1993
Before the next match, Irwin R. Schyster says that with a new administration in the White House, it is high time that everyone pay their fair share of taxes.

It is announced that "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan is returning to the WWF and is coming for Yokozuna.
Kamala beats Jim Gorman. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Reverend Slick, who says that not only has he helped Kamala turn his life around, but also gain some self-esteem. Kamala repeats after him, saying "I am a man." After the match, "The King" Jerry Lawler draws (in red) a cooking pot with a person in it, saying that Kamala will turn on Slick and eat him for dinner.
It is announced that Mr. Perfect is not only on the cover of Wrestling Spotlight Magazine, but also in two posters available inside.
Raymond Rougeau interviews "The Narcissist" Lex Luger, who poses in the mirror until he hears about Mr. Perfect wanting to beat him at WrestleMania 9. Luger says that will not be happening and is not even crossing his mind, because he is beyond perfect. As Rougeau continues to interview Luger, Mr. Perfect appears on the nearby video screen, which Luger can see in the mirror. Luger says he can only wish that Perfect was out in the arena with him instead of behind a video screen, as only then could he truly appreciate what a physical specimen he is before he goes down in defeat at WrestleMania 9. Luger says Mr. Perfect's legs would shake and his spine quiver when he sees him, as he is beyond perfection. Mr. Perfect says he cannot wait for WrestleMania 9, and says he has to see it right now. He leaves the video screen, then shows up in the arena and stands face-to-face with Luger. Luger says this is quite a surprise, but he is glad he is here as he will get a dose of reality and a taste of what he will see when he steps in the ring with him, and plays up his physique. Mr. Perfect says they should ask the people who is perfect, then places his towel - which shows his name on it, which perfectly faces Luger - on the mirror and goes on to mockingly ask Luger's mirror who the most perfect of them all is.
Shawn Michaels beats Joey Maggs. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Shawn, who says that Tatanka is destined for nothing, and at WrestleMania 9, if it is fulfillment he wants, it is fulfillment he will get.
Sean Mooney advertises the Raw show for this Monday night at the Manhattan Center in midtown Manhattan, New York. The show at Madison Square Garden is tomorrow night. Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) face The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner), "Macho Man" Randy Savage squares off with Doink, and Bret "Hit Man" Hart and Mr. Perfect tag team against Razor Ramon and "The Narcissist" Lex Luger. Luger admires his body, then says everything about him is incredible as he is in a situation beyond perfect as he gets both Mr. Perfect and Bret in a tag team match with Razor Ramon. He says Bret is game, but not smart, as he could get injured before his championship match at WrestleMania 9, and Mr. Perfect could be tarnished before he humiliates him that night. Mr. Perfect says nobody would have though they would be on the same time, but they are, as Luger and Razor have to be put in their place. With Luger saying he is better than perfect and Razor saying he oozes machismo, Perfect says they need to be put in their place. Bret says that Luger has to look in a mirror to remind himself how great he is, while Razor is all talk and talk will not save him when they get in the ring and get wasted. Mr. Perfect and Bret then argue over whether they are "the perfect team" or "the excellent team."
"Macho Man" Randy Savage and Reverend Jesse Jackson asks fans to contribute to WWF's Headlock On Hunger to aid the hunger crisis in Somalia. Donations are asked to be sent to: American Red Cross, Somalina Relief, Dept. WWF, P.O. Box 37243, Washington, DC 20013.

Harvey Wippleman says it is almost time for WrestleMania 9, and he can hardly wait as The Undertaker has walked his death march for some time, and he will finally meet a man who cannot be intimidated. Giant Gonzales says that after WrestleMania, The Undertaker will be finished.
Mr. Fuji congratulates Bret "Hit Man" Hart for becoming WWF Champion, and says that Yokozuna is undefeated in sumo as well as in pro wrestling. He says that Yokozuna will win the WWF Championship at WrestleMania 9 and make the country of Japan proud. Bret says that he is getting just a little sick and tired of how everyone is talking about how Yokozuna will walk all over him, and that Yokozuna will lose more than his face as he is up against the best there is, the best there was and the best there evil will be. He says that the excellence of execution will be in focus and 100% at Caesars Palace. It is announced that Bret and Yokozuna will have a contract signing for their match next week. We then hear from The Mega Maniacs (Hulk Hogan and Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake"), who says that when he is getting ready for WrestleMania 9, he does not want to hear idle chatter in the gym, even though it helps him squeeze out a few more reps. Jimmy Hart says The Mega Maniacs' stock is going up, and the future is looking bright on merchandise. Brutus says you have to be at Caesars Palace to witness this one, as it will be like nothing you have witnessed before. Hogan tells him not to cut a little off the top, but to pull it all out by the roots. The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) will be taking on The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), and Scott says they are not backing down. The Headshrinkers may be wild and out of control, but Rick has the Steinerline to take their heads off. It is then announced that Kamala will face Bam Bam Bigelow at WrestleMania 9.
We see Crush in Kona, Hawaii. He says that people back home keep asking him when he will get his hands on Doink. He says it will happen at WrestleMania 9, and the whole world will be watching. He has noticed that Doink has been talking about him since he injured him, and calling him "pineapple head." He says he sees no resemblance between him and a pineapple, and says Doink looks more like a pineapple than he does. He then crushes the pineapple in his hand, and says this is what Crush will look like after WrestleMania 9.
Doink beats Larry Sampson with the Stump Puller. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Doink, who says he will send Crush back to Hawaii when he wins at WrestleMania 9.
Sean Mooney re-advertises Raw this Monday night at the Manhattan Center in midtown Manhattan, New York, which features Doink, Bam Bam Bigelow, Bob Backlund and Tatanka, and Kamala vs. Giant Gonzales in the main event. He also re-advertises the Madison Square Garden show. We then hear from The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) Scott says they are angry at the fact that they are facing Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) in a non-title match, and when they step in with them, they're going to prove why they deserve a title shot. He also says it doesn't take a lot to get Rick mad. Rick says Money Inc. has what they want, and they have worked a long time to get where they are. He is tired of Irwin R. Schyster, and says a lot of people would like to see the taxman go down. We also hear from "Macho Man" Randy Savage, who says there is something about Doink that he does not like, and says he is not who he says he is after accusing him of not being who he is, either. Savage says he is secure about getting Doink in the ring, as he will beat Doink not only for Crush and the kids, but also for himself, and he will find out what Doink is made of. Also, Tatanka faces Papa Shango that night.
Next week: A Bret "Hit Man" Hart music video! The championship contract signing between Bret and Yokozuna for their match at WrestleMania 9!
Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) beat Robert Thomson and Alan Reid with the Million Dollar Dream to one of their opponents.

Mr. Fuji congratulates Bret "Hit Man" Hart for becoming WWF Champion, and says that Yokozuna is undefeated in sumo as well as in pro wrestling. He says that Yokozuna will win the WWF Championship at WrestleMania 9 and make the country of Japan proud. Bret says that he is getting just a little sick and tired of how everyone is talking about how Yokozuna will walk all over him, and that Yokozuna will lose more than his face as he is up against the best there is, the best there was and the best there evil will be. He says that the excellence of execution will be in focus and 100% at Caesars Palace. It is announced that Bret and Yokozuna will have a contract signing for their match next week.

He also says it doesn't take a lot to get Rick mad. Rick says Money Inc. has what they want, and they have worked a long time to get where they are. He is tired of Irwin R. Schyster, and says a lot of people would like to see the taxman go down. We also hear from "Macho Man" Randy Savage, who says there is something about Doink that he does not like, and says he is not who he says he is after accusing him of not being who he is, either. Savage says he is secure about getting Doink in the ring, as he will beat Doink not only for Crush and the kids, but also for himself, and he will find out what Doink is made of.

She says that Jim's injured ribs could not have happened at a worse time, as she has conceived a child. She wants Jim to be able to play with his baby, and knows he is a proud man. She and her baby both love him, and she says that Mr. Fuji and Yokozuna have injured him because he is a proud American, but America is not at war with Japan and this is a sport.

The Big Boss Man tells Doink that if he is too serious, then he hasn't seen anything yet.

"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair says he won it last year, and he will win it again, because he is The Nature Boy and what comes out of his mouth is as good as gold, and because he will take the WWF Championship for a third time.
Kamala beats Dale Wolfe. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Harvey Wippleman, who says that it is a good thing that Kamala is being advised by Reverend Slick, as he will be saying his prayers when he gets in the ring with Kim Chee.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan says there is never a dull moment in the WWF, as something is always going on, especially during a pay-per-view. This Sunday's Royal Rumble will be the pinnacle of that, as shockwaves will be heard around the world when he unveils Narcissus. He says that Narcissus is impossible to describe when it comes to confirming whether or not Narcissus is a mesomorphic Adonis with Herculean strength and power and the speed, power and skills of multiple WWF Superstars.
Sean Mooney advertises Monday Night Raw on Monday Night, February 1st at the Manhattan Center in Midtown Manhattan, New York. The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) and Razor Ramon will be there, and a 16-man over the top rope battle royal will also take place there. He also plugs the Madison Square Garden show on Friday night again, where Bob Backlund will take on Shawn Michaels for the WWF Intercontinental Championship. We hear from Shawn, who says that he has no respect for anybody, but admits Backlund may be an exception for all he has done. He then says Backlund is mistaken if he thinks he will take the Intercontinental Championship from him. We hear from Mr. Perfect, who will take on "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair that night, who says that nobody will be holding Flair back this time, and he will get to Flair before Flair gets to him. He says Flair is not as smart as he thinks he is, and if he was, he would be in his corner and not backing a loser. The Undertaker will also take on Irwin R. Schyster.

The All-American Boys - All-American Wrestling Recap for January 10, 1993
"Mean" Gene Okerlund and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan are in New York City, New York the day before the premiere edition of Monday Night Raw. Okerlund and Heenan argue about how they got there, with Okerlund saying that his driver could have gotten them over here quickly while Heenan says that while his driver doesn't know a word of English, he really knows his way around and is super-cheap. Okerlund makes note of the cheapness of Heenan's driver. Heenan waves at the Statue of Liberty, then ducks a pigeon. Okerlund then says he can't wait to get to the Manhattan Center, where Raw will take place tomorrow night. Heenan says that while he's not on the show and is not involved in any way, he holds no hard feeling towards Okerlund and will help get him there for cheap. Okerlund has the feeling he is not in the most capable of hands, then kicks off the opening match.
The Undertaker beats Scott Zappa. After the match, Scott Zappa is placed in a bodybag.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan is in the back of a limousine driven by a man named Zappo. They then plug WWF Mania, and Heenan talks about how Razor Ramon sent a message to Bret "Hit Man" Hart that he will take the WWF Championship from him at Royal Rumble by attacking "The Rocket" Owen Hart on the premiere episode. Okerlund then mentions that he and Heenan have passed the Empire State Building three times, implying that their driver is lost.
Kamala beats Todd Becker. Kim Chee and Harvey Wippleman abuse Kamala after the match, then Reverend Slick shows up from out and confronts Kim Chee and Wippleman over their treatment of Kamala. Kim Chee punches Slick out, then Kamala finally has enough and chops Kim Chee out of the ring before chasing Wippleman to the back.
We look back on Razor Ramon's attack on "The Rocket" Owen Hart during an interview on WWF Mania. Razor Ramon says that Bret "Hit Man" Hart is upset that he attacked his brother Owen, and that he made it personal. Razor then tells Bret that at Royal Rumble, he's next. We then hear from Bret, who tells Razor Ramon that he'll have to pound out some bully for beating up one of his little brothers, and that when he steps in the ring with him at Royal Rumble, he'll not only prove that he's a good fighter, but that he'll pound the daylights out of him.
The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) beat two unnamed opponents, then take a bite out of the guy they pinned. Before the match, Afa, Samu and Fatu are seen eating a raw meat sandwich, obviously wordplay referring to tomorrow night's premiere of Monday Night Raw.
It is announced that the WWF will be the first sports-entertainment group to aid the food crisis in Somalia, and will donate a minimum of $100,000 to the Somalia Relief Fund. Proceeds from the January 29th show in Madison Square Garden will be donated to the American Red Cross to send medicine, food and relief supplies for the starving in Somalia. Sean Mooney acts that fans send donations to the Somalia Relief Fund at P.O. Box 9131, Church Street Station, New York, NY, 10256, then advertises Royal Rumble. We then hear from "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, who says that he can't think of a better way to start the year off than by winning the Royal Rumble match. He says that wherever you find money, you will find him, and he and Irwin R. Schyster will definitely be at Royal Rumble. In case they're the last two men in the Rumble, it's business as usual, but all the money goes to Money Inc. (DiBiase, Schyster), and they can't lose. We also hear from "Macho Man" Randy Savage, who says he hears people talking about him. He says there are no friends in the Royal Rumble match, and says he's going to win it regardless of what happens.
It is a chilly evening in New York City, and "Mean" Gene Okerlund and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan are in the middle of Times Square - nowhere near the Manhattan Center - because Zappo, their limo driver, dumped them there because he ran out of gas. Heenan says he'll be back, and at this point Okerlund sees no use in arguing with Heenan. Heenan then talks about the secret he has in Narcissus at Royal Rumble before having contention with some of the people out on the street, then Okerlund leads us to the next match, already in progress.
Marty Jannetty beats Repo Man with a crucifix pin.
We see a repeat of Rene Rougeau's interview with the clown that has been seen in the crowd for the past few weeks. We see that the clown's arm is in a sling, and says his name is Doink. He laughs when reminded of how he tripped Big Boss Man on his way to the ring, put a mop in Tatanka's eye, threw water on Marty Jannetty (saying he needed a bath anyway), and reminds Rougeau of the banana's beneath Bob Backlund's feet. Rougeau says Doink is the only person laughing here, and says that clowns are supposed to be funny. Doink says he enjoys entertaining the kids, then looking at their smiles and wanting to take those smiles away as he goes from happy-go-lucky to dark and serious. Rougeau reminds him that Crush gave him a severe warning last week on Superstars, and tells him that it's one thing to pull pranks on WWF Superstars but something completely different when the kids are involved. Doink says he's just having a good time, but Rougeau says the jokes are at someone's else expense. Doink doesn't care whose expense the jokes are, then squirts Rougeau with the flower on his jacket before rolling on the floor laughing.
It is announced that Shawn Michaels will defend the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Marty Jannetty at Royal Rumble, and that Sensational Sherri will be at ringside, even though it is unknown whose corner she will be in. We then hear from Shawn, who says nobody has been more undeserving of an Intercontinental title shot than Jannetty, but being "Mr. Cool," he's decided to give him one anyway. Shawn then states that Sherri will be in his corner, even though he hasn't had a chance to talk to her. We then hear from Jannetty, who says that January 24th will be "Marty Jannetty Day" as he will take the Intercontinental title and end Shawn's career, telling Shawn that he doesn't know Sherri as much as he thinks he does, implying that Sherri might be in his corner.
"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, Tatanka, Irwin R. Schyster, Bob Backlund, Lawler, Mr. Perfect, "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, Crush, "The Model" Rick Martel, Yokozuna, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Papa Shango, Earthquake, Berserker, Undertaker, Carlos Colon, and the recently announced Great Tenryu, "El Matador" Tito Santana, Typhoon, Samu, Fatu, and "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan will all be in the Royal Rumble match. We also hear from some of the competitors in the Royal Rumble match. Mr. Perfect says his smile doesn't look out of place, as the Royal Rumble match is here and he doesn't have a problem with anything because he's perfect. No matter who he faces, they're not perfect. Mr. Fuji speaks for Yokozuna, who tells everyone to look at Yokozuna, saying no one can move him or lift him off his feet. At 505 pounds, Yokozuna will become the Royal Rumble winner. Duggan says the Royal Rumble is his kind of match, as you nail anything that moves and there are no friends or foe. Even though he cannot promise he will win the match, he will give it 110%.
The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) beat Butch Banks and Rock Werner in a repeat match from Superstars. During the match, we hear pre-recorded comments from the Steiners. Scott says they don't know if WWF is ready for them, but at Royal Rumble, The Beverly Brothers (Beau and Blake Beverly) will know. Rick says that they've made their New Year's resolutions, and The Beverly Brothers aren't going to like them.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan are back in the limo and inside a tunnel. Heenan says Zappo knows where he's going, but Okerlund has the feeling that Heenan doesn't want him to make it to Monday Night Raw as he is jealous that he won't be there. Heenan insists he still holds no ill will, then Okerlund plugs Royal Rumble and the Madison Square Garden show benefiting Somalia Relief fund.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan finally make it to the Manhattan Center. Tomorrow night on Raw, The Undertaker will face Damien Demento, and Yokozuna will face Koko B. Ware. Heenan, irritated that he is not part of the show, wants nothing to do with the show, and the limo leaves with Heenan's belongings to close out the show as Okerlund heads into the Manhattan Center in preparation for tomorrow night.
The Undertaker beats Scott Zappa. After the match, Scott Zappa is placed in a bodybag.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan is in the back of a limousine driven by a man named Zappo.

Kamala beats Todd Becker. Kim Chee and Harvey Wippleman admonish and abuse Kamala after the match, but Reverend Slick shows up and tells them that their partnership with Kamala is over. Kim Chee punches out Slick, then he and Wippleman continue to torment Kamala. Kamala finally has enough, and chops Kim Chee before chasing Harvey Wippleman to the dressing room.
We hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart and Razor Ramon. Razor Ramon says he knows Bret is upset because he slapped his brother Owen Hart around, and tells him that at Royal Rumble, he is next. Bret says this isn't the first time he'll have to pound out a bully for picking on one of his brothers. When Razor Ramon steps into the ring with him at Royal Rumble, he will show he's not just a good wrestler, but he's a tough fighter, and that he will pound the daylights out of him.
The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) beat Butch Banks and Rock Werner. During the match, we hear pre-recorded comments from the Steiners.

Also, WWF hits the Meadowlands Arena this afternoon when Razor Ramon faces Mr. Perfect. Mr. Perfect tells Razor Ramon that he thinks he is cool and "oozing machismo," but Perfect tells him what he is oozing stinks while he is oozing perfection. Anyone who has been in the ring with him knows he is the greatest, and when Razor Ramon gets in the ring thinking he is tough, he will get nicked, because nobody beats Mr. Perfect...nobody. We then hear from Shawn Michaels, who is defending the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Marty Jannetty. He tells Jannetty that he reeks of jealousy. He cannot blame him, but there is a lot to be jealous of, as he is the hottest dude in the WWF, the Intercontinental Champion, he is rich, good-looking, and has it all. Meanwhile, Jannetty has nothing, and that is not going to change. Jannetty says this is a good opportunity for him, as he has a shot at Shawn Michaels - something he has wanted for a long time - as well as the Intercontinental Championship. There is nothing anybody can do to keep him from taking his title and his career.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan tells Mr. Perfect that he has heard him asking questions of the other wrestlers about Narcissus, and says that comparing Mr. Perfect to Narcissus would be like comparing ice cream to horse manure. He says horse manure has its place in this world, even perfect horse manure, but Narcissus is so beyond perfect that he could very well be from another galaxy. He says that when he unleashes Narcissus at Royal Rumble, even Perfect will be convinced that Narcissus is from another world.
Lance Cassidy beats George Petrovsky.

Rougeau reminds Doink that Crush warned him not to make the children sad, but Doink says he's having a good time. Rougeau says he's having a good time, but Rougeau says he's having a good time at someone else's expenses.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for May 23, 1992
The Undertaker beats Bill Pierce. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Mr. Fuji and The Berserker. Mr. Fuji says that he and The Berserker will put The Undertaker six feet under, and The Berserker says he will kick The Undertaker's teeth in, shove him in a coffin and put him back in a grave where he belongs.
We hear from Papa Shango, who tells The Ultimate Warrior that he has the final possession to complete his curse on him; he owns his spirit, which means he owns Warrior.
Virgil beats Dwayne Gill with a sleeper hold.
Before the next match, Irwin R. Schyster says he thinks all the tax cheats who filed for an extension need to know that cheating on their taxes is highly illegal.
Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) beat Mark Kay and Jim Powers.
We hear from High Energy. Koko says they are still on the move and on a natural high that the kids love them. Owen says there is so much electricity that he can feel a spark, and any team that gets in the ring with them is in for a shock on their way to the top. We also hear from "The Model" Rick Martel, who says he is so hot, he sizzles. He says he is in demand everywhere, for he is a trendsetter. He says that everyone is wearing Tatanka's feathers because everyone wants to look like "The Model," and he warns Tatanka not to mess around with him, as more than the feathers might be missing on him next time.
The British Bulldog beats Barry Hardy. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Repo Man, who says dogs have ruined his business, but The British Bulldog will not, for he has a choke collar for him and he knows how to take the bite out of a dog.
We hear from "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and Mr. Perfect, who are outside with a woman for a picnic. Flair says some people take life way too seriously, but not him and Perfect. For them, life is a picnic, and they enjoy the best of what life has to offer every single day. However, there is only one problem: Miss Elizabeth won't leave Flair alone, calling his telephone, sending him telegrams and knocking on his door. Flair says Elizabeth is permanently on the outside looking in. Perfect says it's springtime and asks Flair to cut Elizabeth some slack, but Flair says they are booked and Elizabeth is out. Flair says he understands Miss Elizabeth's frustration, but there is no coming back, even with the messages left on the answering machine, which Perfect plays on the nearby boombox. Perfect says "Macho Man" Randy Savage bought the cow, but Flair got the milk for free, and Flair tells Elizabeth that while she may not be coming back, the WWF Championship is.
We hear from Crush, who says that he strives to be - and plans to be - number one in the World Wrestling Federation. He knows he has a big mountain to climb, but he will crush anybody who gets in his way. He also warns the bullies and garbage in the World Wrestling Federation that at 6'7" and 320 pounds, he can be anybody's worst nightmare. We also hear from The Genius and the Beverly Brothers (Beau and Blake Beverly), who boast about their undefeated streak while they mock The Legion of Doom (Road Warrior Animal and Road Warrior Hawk) and Paul Ellering for using dirty tricks against them as they stay on top for a long time.
The Mountie beats Bobby Knight. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Sgt. Slaughter, who salutes all the brave men and women who died protecting the United States of America before telling The Mountie that he is in the fight of his life for he will never surrender. After the match, The Mountie makes Bobby Knight beg for mercy with his shock stick, but Knight runs away as referee Tim White tries to get The Mountie away from Knight. The Mountie then demands his theme song be played, and he sings to it.
WWF Crunch Classic will be available this Thursday on Coliseum Home Video.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews The Ultimate Warrior on the stage. Warrior says he stands before his fans and Papa Shango to let them know that any weakness in his physcial condition has been turned into a greater strength, and asks how a force of Warriors such as the ones behind him that leave the entire world spellbound fall under a spell of Papa Shango's, and says that while he is not in control of his destiny, his Warriors stand behind him and are in control of such things. He says that his fans belive that the voodoo that Papa Shango possess is another challenged that must be stopped, conquered and survived. Suddenly, a greenish-black liquid drips from Warrior's head, and The Warrior leave.
The Bushwhackers (Bushwhacker Butch and Bushwhacker Luke) beat Vince Sola and The Dublin Destoyer.
Kamala beats Kerry Davis.
The current issue of WBF Magazine - containing an article about the WBF and WWF's anti-steroid stance - will be on newsstands this coming Tuesday.
We hear from Shawn Michaels, who says he can remember a time when Bret "Hit Man" Hart was the premier poster boy of the WWF, when Hart had a youthful energy and could do no wrong. He tells Bret his days are behind him and that the future is bright for him, and says the WWF Intercontinental Championship will not be his for long, as he is rocking the WWF starting with Bret and the title will soon be coming to him. We also hear from The Natural Disasters (Earthquake and Typhoon). Earthquake asks Jimmy Hart how he is sleeping at night knowing that they are on his tail and out to put a finish to all of his family members, and says that when they get done with Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase and Irwin R. Schyster), they will have the tag team gold again. Typhoon asks Money Inc. how it feels now that their whole world is falling down around them and there is nothing they can do about it.

Tito Santana beats Bob Bradley. During the match, Mr. Perfect reads a letter from someone that is addressed to The Big Boss Man, stating that their sentence is over and that they are a free man, and that Big Boss Man - who called him a number without a name - is "a pig without a prayer."
We hear from The Mountie and Jimmy Hart. Jimmy Hart says that when he created The Hart Foundation, he knew he would have one man that was a backbone and a foundation, and that man is The Mountie.

He says that Tatanka's feathers are the hottest look in Paris right now after they have flown the coop.
