The New Midnight Express ("Bodacious" Bart Gunn and "Bombastic" Bob Holly) beat The Disciples of Apocalypse (Skull and 8-Ball) by disqualification after one of the NWA World Tag Team Championship belts is used as a weapon by DOA, even though the belt was tossed to Bart Gunn. After the match, Dan "The Beast" Severn attacks the Disciples of Apocalypse, then he, The New Midnight Express and Jim Cornette retreat.
We see footage of "Double J" Jeff Jarrett and Tennessee Lee with Sawyer Brown lead singer Mark Miller in the studio.
"Double J" Jeff Jarrett beats Lance Diamond with the Figure Four Leg Lock.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for March 9, 1998
"The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock and Steve Blackman beat Faarooq and "The Rock" Rocky Maivia by disqualification when the rest of The Nation of Domination (D'Lo Brown, Kama Mustafa, "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry) interfere. After the match, The Rock tells the rest of The Nation he wants a piece of Shamock, and Faarooq lets The Rock have him. Shamrock starts fighting back, however, and even when Shamrock has The Rock in the ankle lock, the rest of The Nation refuse to intervene as Faarooq refuses to let them do so. Referees and officials eventually have to restore order. (During the match, technical difficulties in the form of static in the feed occasionally pop up, and continue to do so at intermittent periods during the show.)
A camera crew is trained at the back of the arena for the arrival of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
D-Generation X ("Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley and Chyna) - without "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels - shows up and welcomes the crowd to another episode of their "pre-WrestleMania showdown." Triple H talks about how Chyna got into Owen Hart's head, and this week, she might just take it to a physical level if she wants to. Triple H says Shawn cannot make it tonight, and shows footage of last week's attack on "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. We then see Shawn Michaels on the TitanTron, and see that he is in a restaurant due to prior commitment. He brags about getting "Iron" Mike Tyson on their side, and said he did what he told the world he was going to do when he attacked Austin last week. He says that Austin is like everyone else, having failed to show him anything new and is nothing more than a fad while he will continue to be WWF Champion. Triple H then says he has two words for everybody: "Suck it." He and Chyna then make guest on commentary, with Kevin Kelly making way for Triple H on the table.
Before the next match, Owen Hart confronts "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
Barry Windham beats Owen Hart by count-out after Jim Cornette distracts the referee and Chyna hits Owen Hart with a low blow. After the match, Bradshaw goes after Barry Windham while "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley and Chyna run to the back. During the match, Owen Hart accidentally rolls his right ankle while stepping off the second rope.
"Marvelous" Marc Mero handcuffs himself to Sable as Sable asks the referee if he will be the only one with the key.
Jerry "The King" Lawler interviews Paul Bearer, who is in the back with Kane. Bearer is in no mood to talk about The Undertaker; instead, he wants to talk about how Kane manhandled Vader last month. As he continues to talk to Bearer, boxes near Kane, Bearer and Lawler continue to open and close on their own. Bearer and Lalwer run away, while Kane just stares at the boxes.
Kevin Kelly, now back on commentary, says he has talked to the people in the production truck, and reveals that they have told him that tonight's techinical difficulties are not on their end and cannot explain what is going on.
Aguila - who is mentioned on commentary as suffering from dehydration - beats "Too Sexy" Brian Christopher after Jerry "The King" Lawler is caught pushing Aguila off the top rope by the referee, after having a brawl with Taka Michinoku, who confronts him for trying to distract the referee. During the match, the lights dim in and out and sounds of what seem like thunder can be heard, briefly spooking Jerry "The King" Lawler. Taka Michinoku drop kicks Lawler out of the ring, and when Lawler and Christopher make their way, the thunder can be heard and the light dim in and out again, and the two of them run to the back.
We see Andre The Giant win a battle royal at WrestleMania 2 as part of the M&Ms Millenium Moment.
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin is finally in the building, and he makes his way to the ring. Austin says he's seen the footage of WWF owner Vince McMahon calling "Iron" Mike Tyson "unquestionably the baddest man on the planet" last week and it's gotten him a little pissed off. After replaying the footage, he calls that a slap in his face, and asks the audience to give him a "hell yeah" if they think it's an insult. Austin threatens to sit in the ring for the rest of the show until Vince McMahon shows up and they straighten out the matter. Austin asks for a cold beer, and says he's not gong anywhere. Instead of Vince, he gets Jack Lanza and Gerald Brisco, and Austin dares them to get in the ring. When they refuse, he tells them to bring out Vince McMahon. Austin continues to wait for Vince, then WWF Commissioner Sgt. Slaughter shows up. Austin tells Slaughter to bring Vince out, and we see Vince backstage. He then gives Vince 30 seconds before he beats Slaughter's ass before doing the same to Vince. We see Vince backstage, with Gerald Briscoe telling him to get in the ring as he is the only person Austin will listen to.
After the commerical break, Pat Patterson shows up with security. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is unimpressed with Patterson's efforts to reason with him, and Austin dares Patterson to get in the ring. The security men play it smart and leave, while Patterson asks them what is wrong with them while he reluctantly follows them. Vince finally shows up with numerous WWF officials. Austin calls Vince out for insulting him and following "Iron" Mike Tyson around. When Vince tries to get in the ring, Austin dares him to get in. He says that Vince has jerked the carpet out from under him and insulted him for the last time, and tells Vince to call him the world's toughest S.O.B. before accusing Vince of trying to provoke him. Vince says it was a figure of speech, but Austin says he has one for him: the middle finger. Austin says Vince doesn't want to see him as the WWF Champion, and tells him to give him a "hell yeah" if he does. Vince refuses to do so, and Austin gives Vince the first shot at him because if he had it, he'd lay him out on the ring. Vince refuses to hit him, and even after he rips his suit jacket, he still refuses. Austin gives him ten seconds to either hit him or leave, and asks for a "hell yeah" if the crowd wants to see him lay Vince out. Vince leaves along with the officials, and Austin says that he will lay "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley out in the middle of the ring. He knows that "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels isn't here tonight, but the next time he sees him, he will kick him down until he takes the WWF Championship.
Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie beat The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre). During the match, it is announced that the NWA Tag Team title match will not happen tonight due to "Stone Cold" Steve Austin holding the show hostage, and that the match will take place this weekend on Superstars. After the match, "Road Dog" Jesse James - now with his arm in a cast - shows up and says that if the dumpster ride was fun, they should wait until WrestleMania. He says he could fight them if he was healthy, but he's not at 100% and can't swing a chair at 90 miles per hour. He says Chainsaw Charlie isn't at 100% either, and dares him to come at him to "get some of what he can't." As Cactus Jack slowly chases Jesse James to the back, "Badd Ass" Billy Gunn comes out of the crowd and hits Terry Funk in the back with a chair. James and Gunn make fun of them, and Gunn tells Cactus Jack not to leave Chainsaw Charlie's side again.
Kane and Paul Bearer show up. Bearer says The Undertaker made a mistake coming back, and the more he thinks about it, the madder he gets. Bearer says he and Kane did The Undertaker a favor by sending him back to the dark side alongside with his parents, but now that The Undertaker is back, Kane has only just begun and The Undertaker has stepped back into an inferno. Suddenly, the lights dim in and out. The Undertaker appears, then the lights go out again. When they come back on, he disappears. Bearer then says that at WrestleMania, The Undertaker will face Kane in the eyes and be sent back to the dark side, never to return.
Raw airs next Tuesday night as a special St. Patrick's Day edition!
Luna Vachon and Sable are handcuffed to separate ring posts before the next match.
"Marvelous" Marc Mero vs. The Artist Formerly Known As Goldust ends in a no-decision. During the match, it is confirmed that "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley will be allowed security on the way to the ring for his match. Also during the match, Goldust sends Mero into referee Mike Chioda. After a Curtain Call to Mero, he hits Mike Chioda with the leg drop before taking the handcuff key from his pocket. He teases freeing Sable from the handcuffs, but frees Luna Vachon instead and sics her on Sable. Luna then forces make-up onto Sable's face, and referees have to get Luna off Sable as Luna splashes a cup of water into Sable's face. Sable is then freed from the handcuffs, and referees - and Mero - have to hold Sable back to keep her from going after Luna.
The Artist Formerly Known As Goldust is tired of holding Luna Vachon back, and says it's time for Luna to get a piece of Sable's ass. He challenges "Marvelous" Marc Mero and Sable to a mixed tag match. Luna says she would turn Sable's face in her canvas, and she did. She then says Mero and Sable can have the whole enchilada, and that she and Goldust will soon be the vandals on their mind.
We see a video package of the events between "Iron" Mike Tyson, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and D-Generation X ("The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, Chyna). Jim Ross interviews "Iron" Mike Tyson says being at Royal Rumble was like a dream come true, but never showed up on WWF programming as he was skeptical as to how he would be treated. During his first meeting with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, he says that Austin disrespected and that he will not take that from anybody. He doesn't care about being a fair, impartial enforcer at WrestleMania 14, and the only thing that is "fair" to him is winning.
"Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley makes his way to the ring, flanked by Chyna and three referees. The referees are positioned at the bottom of the entrance ramp to watch for "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. Other officials including WWF Commissioner Sgt. Slaughter, as well as Miguel Perez, Jesus Castillo and Jose Estrada Jr. also position themselves around the ring. It isn't long before Austin shows up as Triple H faces Savio Vega, and as Austin hits everyone with Stone Cold Stunners, "The Heartbreak Kid' Shawn Michaels comes out through the crowd and hits Austin with Sweet Chin Music. The show cuts off just before he tries to injure Austin's knee with a steel chair.
A camera crew is trained at the back of the arena for the arrival of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.

Vince's Got A Shotgun - Shotgun Saturday Night recap for February 28, 1998
Aguila beats Pirata Morgan.
The Rock 'n Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) beats The Godwinns (Henry O. and Phineas I. Godwinn) after Barry Windham hits Phineas I. Godwinn in the back with Jim Cornette's tennis racket as the referee is pre-occupied with the action at ringside.
We hear from Owen Hart, who says he is so elated now that he can get his hands on "Triple H" Hunter Hearst Helmsley, who has been a thorn in his side ever since he came back to the WWF. He cannot wait to end his career at WrestleMania 14, and while he is WWF European Champion, he did not get to this point like he wanted. It was satisfying to beat Goldust for the title, but it is not the same as beating Triple H's face in, which he plans to do before putting Triple H in the Sharpshooter and making him suffer for making his life a living hell. D-Generation X ("The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Chyna) might have gotten personal with him, but so will he, and he will leave as the European Champion.
WrestleMania 14 is four weeks away!
We hear from Pete Rose, who announces that he will be at WrestleMania 14.

The Disciples of Apocalypse (Skull and 8-Ball) beat The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) after Chainz hits Pierre with a splash from the top rope behind the referee's back. During the match, it is announced that information on a potential match between Sable and Luna Vachon is now available on The Ross Report on Option 3 of the WWF Superstar Line.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 2, 1994
The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) beat The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) to win the WWF Tag Team Championships with both "Captain" Lou Albano and Afa in tow. During the match, The Quebecers and Johnny Polo flee, but are forced to hastily return when it is announced that if they do not return to the ring, they will lose the match as well as the tag team titles.
This week on Superstars: Scott Steiner and Irwin R. Schyster compete for a spot in the King of the Ring tournament. Also, Razor Ramon and Kwang square off for another spot in the tournament next week on Raw. Baltimore Orioles legend Art Donovan will also be on hand as a special guest analyst.
Chief Jay Strongbow tells Vince McMahon and "Macho Man" Randy Savage that Tatanka is on the warpath, and that we'll see it in the ring tonight.
Tatanka beats Derek Domino. During the match, Vince McMahon interviews Irwin R. Schyster via telephone, who insists that Tatanka owed a gift tax on his headdress and did not pay it. He cannot wait to take Tatanka down for good. After the match, Tatanka and Chief Jay Strongbow shake hands.
It's time for The King's Court. Lawler mocks the career of and calls a "has-been." He also mocks Razor Ramon, saying he is also a "has-been" for becoming the ex-Intercontinental Champion. He then introduces this week's guest and the new WWF Intercontinental Champion, Diesel, fresh off his championship win on Superstars the previous week. Lawler asks if he can call him "Cool Daddy," but Diesel tells Lawler he can call him "Big Daddy Cool" if he likes. Lawler notices that Shawn Michaels is absent from tonight's proceedings, due to Shawn Michaels sacrificing himself to help Diesel win the belt. Diesel says that Michaels will be back, and he is glad to have someone who is willing to sacrifice himself for him before telling the crowd they haven't seen a dynamic duo like this since Batman and Robin. As for Razor Ramon, he gives credit where it's due, but says he wasn't quite bad enough last week on Superstars. Lawler then asks Diesel what's next for him, and Diesel says that while the Intercontinental Championship is nice, the WWF Championship looks a little better, and says he'll go for that. Lawler wishes Diesel luck on getting a match with Bret "Hitman" Hart, calling Hart "a gutless wonder." Diesel responds by saying that Hart can run, but he can't hide, and says that the WWF Championship will soon be around his waist.
The Undertaker was recently sighted near an auto shop, near an elementary school, around a burning house, and at a jeweler.
Yokozuna beats Scott Taylor and Mike Davis in a 2-on-1 handicap match. After the match, Yokozuna hits Scott Taylor with two more Banzai Drops before Earthquake shows up, staring Yokozuna down until Yokozuna leaves the ring.
Earthquake tells Vince McMahon and "Macho Man" Randy Savage that he is sick and tired of hearing about Yokozuna and being asked when he's going to take him on...so he challenges him to a one-on-one match to determine who is the biggest and best man in the World Wrestling Federation.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for April 11, 1994
The Bushwhackers (Butch and Luke), Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) and The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) ask the fans to vote for them to give them a shot at The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) and the WWF Tag Team Championships tonight.
"Macho Man" Randy Savage guests on commentary for this week.
Diesel beats Virgil.
"The King" Jerry Lawler shows up, sitting on a throne carried to the ring by Dwayne Gill, A.C. Connor (the future D'Lo Brown), Mike Khoury and Major Yates. Just before they go to break, they accidentally topple the thrown and The King comes tumbling down, hitting his forehead on the mat below.
After the break, "The King" Jerry Lawler threatens to slap the smile off of someone's face if they point and laugh one more time, but the crowd responds by doing just that. He almost calls The King's Court off out of embarrassment when Lex Luger shows up laughing at Lawler just as much as the crowd themselves. When Lawler asks Luger to sit down, he sits down in Lawler's throne instead of the bench (which he never sits in, as he stands the whole time along with Lawler). Luger says that Mr. Perfect's actions at WrestleMania 10 speak for themselves, and while he's made mistakes and owned up to them, says Perfect should have settled their beef before the match. He dares Perfect to put some action where his mouth is, so he can take him out once and for all.
Thurman "Sparky" Plugg beats Barry Horowitz. During the match, Vince McMahon interivews Mr. Perfect via telephone, and Perfect takes the time to vehemently defend himself.
Johnny Polo and The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) harass the staff at the WWF Hotline Headquarters, while The Bushwhackers (Butch and Luke), Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) and The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) argue over who's going to face The Quebecers by popular vote.

Bret "Hitman" Hart takes on Kwang next week on Raw!
Bill and Hilary Clinton host the annual White House Easter Egg Roll...and Doink and Dink are part of the proceedings along with The Bushwhackers (Butch and Luke). Even Socks the Cat gets a lick from Butch and Luke.
Irwin R. Schyster shows up to tell everyone they have four days left to pay their taxes. He also warns Tatanka to pay the gift tax on the headdresses he was recently awarded.
We look back at "The King' Jerry Lawler falling off his throne from earlier tonight.
"Macho Man" Randy Savage guests on commentary for this week.
Diesel beats Virgil.
"The King" Jerry Lawler shows up, sitting on a throne carried to the ring by Dwayne Gill, A.C. Connor (the future D'Lo Brown), Mike Khoury and Major Yates. Just before they go to break, they accidentally topple the thrown and The King comes tumbling down, hitting his forehead on the mat below.
After the break, "The King" Jerry Lawler threatens to slap the smile off of someone's face if they point and laugh one more time, but the crowd responds by doing just that. He almost calls The King's Court off out of embarrassment when Lex Luger shows up laughing at Lawler just as much as the crowd themselves. When Lawler asks Luger to sit down, he sits down in Lawler's throne instead of the bench (which he never sits in, as he stands the whole time along with Lawler). Luger says that Mr. Perfect's actions at WrestleMania 10 speak for themselves, and while he's made mistakes and owned up to them, says Perfect should have settled their beef before the match. He dares Perfect to put some action where his mouth is, so he can take him out once and for all.
Thurman "Sparky" Plugg beats Barry Horowitz. During the match, Vince McMahon interivews Mr. Perfect via telephone, and Perfect takes the time to vehemently defend himself.
Johnny Polo and The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) harass the staff at the WWF Hotline Headquarters, while The Bushwhackers (Butch and Luke), Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) and The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) argue over who's going to face The Quebecers by popular vote.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for February 26, 1994
Razor Ramon beats The Black Phantom.
On Update, we hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that he has had a most difficult task set before him at WrestleMania 10, and that wrestling his brother "The Rocket" Owen Hart is going to be hard to do. He says that Owen is a great wrestler and like a dog ready for the hunt, but when he steps in the ring with him, he will be in the ring with the best dog. He respects Lex Luger and what he said at last week's edition of The Funeral Parlor, and wishes him the best of luck against Yokozuna before reminding him that he will go down when he steps in the ring with him. We then hear from "The Rocket" Owen Hart, who says that Bret's confidence is a cover-up for fear, as they both know that he is the better Hart and that Bret has been keeping him down in his shadow. At WrestleMania 10, he will step out of his shadow and prove he is the better Hart brother. He tells Bret not to look past him for the World title match, as he will not get past him.
Tony Bueti is the honorary ring announcer for the next match.
The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) beat John Paul and Miguel Rosado. Before the match, Johnny Polo - who replaces Stan Lane on commentary this week - accompanies The Quebecers in a black bathrobe, a snorkel mask and swim flippers. Nikolai Volkoff is seen in the front of the crowd again. During the match, we hear pre-recorded comments from Oscar, who tells The Quebecers that Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) will beat them to become WWF Tag Team Champions.
We hear from Crush, who says that he has not been more prepared for anything in his life. He says the fans may be sick and tired of him interfering in "Macho Man" Randy Savage's business and that Savage may be sick and tired of seeing his face, but he is sick and tired of Savage, who he calls "a backstabbing snake." Crush says they will settle it once and for all at WrestleMania 10, and that Mr. Fuji has prepared him for the match. Mr. Fuji tells Savage he will pay from head to toe, and that there will be no mercy when Crush takes care of him once and for all. Crush says that he might take advantage of the rules of their Last Man Standing Match just to pin him in the ring again and again, as there is no room for the both of them in the WWF and it will be finished once and for all.
Thurman "Sparky" Plugg beats Derek Domino.
Raymond Rougeau interviews Shawn Michaels in the ring. As Shawn heads to the ring, he takes the ladder in the aisle and places it in the center of the ring. He talks about how he stood equal everyone until he was no longer happy with it and decided to step up and rise about everyone else by climbing the WWF ladder to sit on top. He says he will continue to sit on top of the WWF, and after all is said and done, he will be standing tall as the undisputed WWF Intercontinental Champion at WrestleMania 10. Shawn then goes on to say that his being declared the winner will be the last thing Razor Ramon sees as he is looking at the lights.
Before the next match, Irwin R. Schyster says it is about time that people stopped cheating on their taxes.
Irwin R. Schyster beats Phil Apollo.
This week on Raw: Yokozuna vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage!
During the WrestleMania 10 Report, it is announced that Donnie Wahlberg of New Kids On The Block will be appearing at the event. We then hear from Yokozuna, Jim Cornette and Mr. Fuji. Cornette says there is a word on everyone's lips in the WWF: confidence. He says WWF President Jack Tunney is confident that he made the right decision concerning the Royal Rumble Match as well as WrestleMania 10, that Bret "Hit Man" Hart is confident that he will beat Yokozuna for the WWF Championship as well as straighten his brother "The Rocket" Owen Hart out, and that Lex Luger is confident he will beat Bret. 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. Schyster, "Double J" Jeff Jarrett and "The Model" Rick Martel at WrestleMania 10. (The match never happens due to time constraints, and is pushed back to the Raw after WrestleMania 10.)
Bret "Hit Man" Hart beats Adam Bomb with the Sharpshooter. During the match, "The Rocket" Owen Hart is seen watching the match from across the aisle.
We hear from Johnny Polo and The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre). Polo says The Quebecers are guaranteed victory at WrestleMania 10, and Jacques says September 13th was the beginning of a new legend when they won the tag team titles. Polo then mocks Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) through hip hop verse.
Next week: "Double J" Jeff Jarrett! The Bushwhackers (Bushwhacker Butch and Bushwhacker Luke)! Diesel! The Funeral Parlor with special guest "The Rocket" Owen Hart! Lex Luger!

Raw Deal - Raw recap for September 13, 1993
The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) beat The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) by disqualification in a chaotic Quebec Rules Match, after Johnny Polo shows up (in a Montreal Canadians sweater, stating "We're The Quebecers Jacques & Pierre, And I'm Johnny," confirming Polo as The Quebecers' new manager) and Scott Steiner hits Jacques with Polo's hockey stick in the heat of the moment. As a result, The Quebecers are the new WWF World Tag Team Champions. In a Quebec Rules Match, the tag titles can be lost by disqualification and/or count-out, and piledrivers, top rope moves and tossing the opponent over the top rope are illegal.
Mr. Perfect beats Tony DeVito...but not without Tony DeVito trying to run away to the back.
SummerSlam will be available on VHS October 3rd.
Razor Ramon beats The Executioner, then hits The Razor's Edge on him after the match.
Vince McMahon interviews newly-crowned WWF World Tag Team Champions The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) and Johnny Polo. When it comes to whether or not they'll give The Steiners (Rick and Scott Steiner) a rematch, they refuse to give them one, but when The Steiners show up with the officials keeping them from entering the ring, they do allow for a one-on-one match between one of the Steiners and one of the Quebecers, and if The Steiners win that singles match, they get a guaranteed tag team title rematch.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan and "Macho Man" Randy Savage appeared on the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon during Labor Day weekend.
Doink beats Rich Myers. During the match, Crush is interviewed via telethon, and he says he's back and returning with power that nobody will believe. When "Macho Man" Randy Savage wishes Crush luck, Crush seemingly hangs up the phone, and it's all chalked up to "technical difficulties." After the match, Bobby "The Brain" Heenan tries to get Doink to throw water at Vince McMahon and the Macho Man, but The Brain gets doused instead. He heads back to the back.
Doink comes back after the break. He tosses some glitter into the crowd.

Take The Wrestling Challenge - Wrestling Challenge recap for August 1, 1993
Before the next match, "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase talks about how The 1-2-3 Kid got an upset win on Razor Ramon on Raw and stole $10,000 of his money in the Raw rematch a few weeks later. He then says he hopes Razor Ramon is watching, as he plans to show him what a real man - a real Million Dollar Man - can do to The 1-2-3 Kid in short order.
The 1-2-3 Kid gets an upset win on "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase after DiBiase is distracted by Razor Ramon, which leads him to perform a lackadaisical, lazy pinfall on The Kid, which The Kid reverses into a crucifix pin to get the unlikely victory. After the match, referees and officials have to keep DiBiase away from Razor Ramon, who then gets in the ring and tells DiBiase three things: he got beat, he got beat, and he got beat. Razor then leads a "1-2-3" chant, much to the fury of DiBiase.
We see footage of the Lex Express in Washington, DC; New York City, New York; Boston, Massachusetts and Syracuse, New York as part of the Lex Luger Call For Action Campaign. We also see footage of Lex Luger on
Adam Bomb beats Tony Webb.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund talks about the Madison Square Garden supercard in New York City, New York on Friday, August 13th. Mr. Perfect, Marty Jannetty and Tatanka take on Bam Bam Bigelow, Shawn Michaels and Diesel in six-man tag action. Yokozuna defends the WWF Championship against Bret "Hit Man" Hart in a steel cage. The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) will take on The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), The 1-2-3 Kid will take on Doink, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage takes on "The King" Jerry Lawler in a Challenge Match. Okerlund then interviews Bret "Hit Man" Hart and Yokozuna. Bret says he'd normally be a little reluctant to step in a steel cage, especially with Yokozuna, but he looks forward to it as Yokozuna can't run or hide and Mr. Fuji can't get involved and knows he's taking the WWF Championship back. Mr. Fuji says Bret fell into his and Yokozuna's trap, and once they're in the ring, he is theirs and Bret will be finished. Bret says Mr. Fuji underestimates the Madison Square Garden fans, and says he will take the WWF Championship back.
The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) beat Damien Demento and Barry Horowitz.
Bret "Hit Man" says it really irks him and ticks him off when "The King" Jerry Lawler stoops low enough to drag his family into things. When he gets in the ring, he does his job, but he likes to keep his family separate. When Lawler humiliated his father, his mother and his brother Owen hart, he went too far and dragged it to a higher level. He looks forward to destroying Lawler at SummerSlam, saying that the ring will be like a scaffold where kings are executed.
It is announced that Shawn Michaels will defend the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Mr. Perfect at SummerSlam, as the match has been made recently official.
Bastion Booger quickly beats Scott Vito.
WrestleMania: The Album is now available, and we see a preview of the music video for "SummerSlam Jam."
Tatanka beats "Iron" Mike Sharpe.
It's time for The King's Court with "The King" Jerry Lawler. This week, Lawler's guest is The Undertaker, who Lawler says isn't as scary as he used to be. After The Undertaker shows up, Lawler says something is missing, and says it's his urn, which he calls "a prized possession." Lawler then says "his close personal friend" Mr. Hughes has it, and though he doesn't know what's in it now, he'll shove The Undertaker in it when he gets his hands on him. The Undertaker grabs the microphone, tells Lawler he's a little bit too consumed with his personal belongings, and if he were Lawler, he'd be more concerned with how close he's standing to Death's door. As far as Mr. Hughes goes, he has something that belongs to him, and if he returns the urn now, he'll bring him to his demise very quickly, but if he has to come looking for Mr. Hughes, it will be a slow, agonizing, painful death. He then tells Mr. Hughes to rest in peace.
The Quebecers (Jacques and Pierre) beat Joey Maggs and Tony DiMauro in their Wrestling Challenge debut.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund talks about the show at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York on Friday, August 27th. Mr. Perfect takes on Bam Bam Bigelow. The 1-2-3 Kid takes on Bastion Booger. Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) takes on Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster). Tatanka takes on Doink. The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) defend the WWF Tag Team Championships against The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), and Shawn Michaels defends the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Razor Ramon. "Macho Man" Randy Savage and The Undertaker take on Giant Gonzales and Mr. Hughes in a tag team war. Okerlund interviews Razor Ramon, Shawn Michaels and Diesel. Michaels understands the phrase "When the horse throws you, you jump right back on." Shawn mentions what happened between Razor and The 1-2-3 Kid, and asks if Razor is ready for him. Razor asks Shawn who he's trying to kid - him or himself - and says somebody in the WWF thinks he's ready because he has the title shot. He knows that since he got beaten, people have taken notie. He says he's hitting his stride, and now he's striding for Shawn. Shawn tells Razor that if he thinks being defeated will make him famous in the WWF, then he will make Razor a star, as Razor has no chance. Diesel says he's here to "keep the chicks off the champ," and that Shawn doesn't need his help.
Next week: The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner)! Shawn Michaels and Diesel! Mr. Hughes! The King's Court with The 1-2-3 Kid!
The Lex Express Tour is heading to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Detriot, Michigan; Flint and Saginaw, Michigan; Grand Rapids, Michigan and Chicago, Illinois!

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for July 24, 1993
We see footage of the Lex Express on the highway to start the show.
Before the next match, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan says he is proud to be an American, that he is proud of the USA and that he is proud of Lex Luger.
"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan beats Duane Gill.
On Update, Vince McMahon interviews WWF President Jack Tunney via telephone. Tunney says he has never come across so many people supporting anything, much less Lex Luger's plea for a WWF Championship match with Yokozuna. He admits that Luger suffers an unfair advantage from the steel plate in his right forearm from his motorcycle accident, but he will receive a title shot. However, he must wear a protective foam pad on the forearm with the steel plate in it that is approved by his office during the match. We then hear a response from Lex Luger on the Lex Express, who says he could not be happier with the decision. As for the forearm pad stipulation, that does not bother him at all and he plans to seize the opportunity to win the WWF Champion. He says the people have spoken, but the Lex Express Call To Action does not stop here, and he will continue to meet people until he reaches Detroit, Michigan at SummerSlam, where he will beat Yokozuna to become the WWF Champion.
Ludvig Borga beats Tony DiMoro in his WWF debut.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund advertises a show for Nassau Coliseum for Friday night, August 27th. The 1-2-3 Kid meets Bastion Booger, Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) faces Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster), Shawn Michaels defends the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Razor Ramon, and Mr. Perfect faces Bam Bam Bigelow. Also, The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) defend the WWF Tag Team Championships against The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), Tatanka takes on Doink, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage and The Undertaker team up to take on Giant Gonzales and Mr. Hughes. Okerlund then interviews Shawn Michaels and Diesel for Face To Face. Shawn says that Razor Ramon did not come close to winning the Intercontinental Championship at Madison Square Garden (though he did, and Diesel saved Shawn). Shawn does not want to focus that, saying that if Okerlund kept focusing onthe past, he would see himself with hair. He is more interesting in looking to the future. He finds it hilarious that Razor Ramon got a shot at his title by getting beat up by The 1-2-3 Kid. Diesel, when told if he will be at the event, says he is everywhere "The Heartbreak Kid" is because it's his job, and Shawn says there's nothing anybody can do it. Shawn says that he is the greatest wrestler on the planet while Diesel is the toughest thing anybody has ever seen, and between the two of them, Shawn says he will be keeping the Intercontinental title for a long time.
It is announced that The 1-2-3 Kid has accepted "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase's challenge from last week on Monday Night Raw, and that their match will take place this weekend on Wrestling Challenge.
Before the next match, Irwin R. Schyster tells the crowd that they are all a sorry bunch of tax cheats.
The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) retain the WWF Tag Team Championships against Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster) by count-out after I.R.S. suplexes Scott Steiner back into the ring just before the end of ten count...and fails to get back in the ring in the nick of time afterwards.
On the SummerSlam Report, , it is announced that The Undertaker is the only person who knows the rules to a Rest In Peace Match, and that Harvey Wippleman may have signed a final contract for Giant Gonzales. We then hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says people ask him what it felt like winning the King of the Ring Tournament, and says it was a career highlight. All of a sudden, "The King" Jerry Lawler ruined it by beating him on the interview platform like he had never been beaten before, either in his career or in his lifetime, and it felt like "a car crash on Unconscious Street." The wheels were upside down, but they were still turning, and those same wheels will grind Lawler up and spit him out when he obliterates him at SummerSlam.
The The 1-2-3 Kid beats Barry Horowitz.
Next week on Superstars: Luna Vachon vs. Sensation Sherri!

"Mean" Gene Okerlund advertises the show at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Friday, August 13th. A six-man elimination tag match of Mr. Perfect, Tatanka and Marty Jannetty vs. Shawn Michaels, Diesel and Bam Bam Bigelow is scheduled for that night. The 1-2-3 Kid will face Doink, while Yokozuna will defend the WWF Championship in a steel cage against Bret "Hit Man" Hart. The Smoking Gunns (Billy and Bart Gunn) will face The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), and "Macho Man" Randy Savage will face "The King" Jerry Lawler. Yokozuna (with Mr. Fuji) and Bret are interviewed for Face To Face. Yokozuna is now at 568 pounds. Fuji is upset, as he finds it ridiculous that Yokozuna has to defend the WWF Championship in a steel cage as Bret has been crying for a title shot and got it from WWF President Jack Tunney, whom he accuses of favoritism. He says Yokozuna will finish Bret once and for all, and he will supervise it from the outside of the cage. Bret says the Steel Cage Match is the most dangerous match of all, and says what he really wants is the WWF Championship that Fuji stole from him at WrestleMania 9. He then says the whole point of the steel cage is to keep Fuji from poking his nose in his business, leaving him and Yokozuna all to themselves. He says they both know who the rightful champion is, and there will be no place to run or hide. Yokozuna and Mr. Fuji speak to each other in Japanese, then Yokozuna tells Bret he will be hit very hard.
Next week: Mr. Perfect! Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo)! Adam Bomb! Mr. Hughes! The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu)!

Before the next match, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan says he is proud to be an American, that he is proud of the USA and that he is proud of Lex Luger.
"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan beats Duane Gill.
On Update, Vince McMahon interviews WWF President Jack Tunney via telephone. Tunney says he has never come across so many people supporting anything, much less Lex Luger's plea for a WWF Championship match with Yokozuna. He admits that Luger suffers an unfair advantage from the steel plate in his right forearm from his motorcycle accident, but he will receive a title shot. However, he must wear a protective foam pad on the forearm with the steel plate in it that is approved by his office during the match. We then hear a response from Lex Luger on the Lex Express, who says he could not be happier with the decision. As for the forearm pad stipulation, that does not bother him at all and he plans to seize the opportunity to win the WWF Champion. He says the people have spoken, but the Lex Express Call To Action does not stop here, and he will continue to meet people until he reaches Detroit, Michigan at SummerSlam, where he will beat Yokozuna to become the WWF Champion.
Ludvig Borga beats Tony DiMoro in his WWF debut.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund advertises a show for Nassau Coliseum for Friday night, August 27th. The 1-2-3 Kid meets Bastion Booger, Men on a Mission (Mabel and Mo) faces Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster), Shawn Michaels defends the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Razor Ramon, and Mr. Perfect faces Bam Bam Bigelow. Also, The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) defend the WWF Tag Team Championships against The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu), Tatanka takes on Doink, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage and The Undertaker team up to take on Giant Gonzales and Mr. Hughes. Okerlund then interviews Shawn Michaels and Diesel for Face To Face. Shawn says that Razor Ramon did not come close to winning the Intercontinental Championship at Madison Square Garden (though he did, and Diesel saved Shawn). Shawn does not want to focus that, saying that if Okerlund kept focusing onthe past, he would see himself with hair. He is more interesting in looking to the future. He finds it hilarious that Razor Ramon got a shot at his title by getting beat up by The 1-2-3 Kid. Diesel, when told if he will be at the event, says he is everywhere "The Heartbreak Kid" is because it's his job, and Shawn says there's nothing anybody can do it. Shawn says that he is the greatest wrestler on the planet while Diesel is the toughest thing anybody has ever seen, and between the two of them, Shawn says he will be keeping the Intercontinental title for a long time.
