Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for December 18, 1993
Bam Bam Bigelow beats P.J. Walker. During the match, we hear pre-recorded from Bam Bam, who wants not only Doink's head on a silver platter, but also a big blazing fireplace with peace and quiet for him and Luna Vachon.
We see Vince McMahon interview Bret "Hit Man" Hart in footage from earlier this week. Bret says his brother "The Rocket" Owen Hart is mixed up right now, and that a match between them would tear up the entire family. He does not know where Owen gets the impression that he was always favored while Owen was pushed off to the side. He admits that Owen won as many accomplishments as he did, but he never felt they needed to be compared to each other. He also does not buy the belief that Owen has lived in his shadow, even if he started off, got famous and accomplished things before Owen did. He is proud of what he has done in the WWF, as is his family, and so should Owen, who has hurdles to jump and goals to reach of his own as he has a whole career ahead of him. As for the post-match celebration at Survivor Series, he says Owen was aware he could join them, and is shocked by Owen saying he felt left out of it. When asked if he has ever been selfish, Bret believes he has never been selfish and has always tried to be the best big brother he could be to Owen, and if Owen feels he is jealous, he would rather talk about it. As for Owen's challenge to a one-on-one match to prove who the better brother is, Bret says he has never backed away from anybody or turned down a challenge, but there are no circumstances where he would want to step into the ring with his brother Owen, and says he will not do it as he does not want this to go any further than it already has.
The 1-2-3 Kid beats Duane Gill. During the match, it is announced that there is a Superstar interview with The 1-2-3 Kid in this month's issue of WWF Magazine.

Also, Razor Ramon will defend the WWF Intercontinental Championship against "Double J" Jeff Jarrett, and Yokozuna will defend the WWF Championship against Tatanka. We then hear from Razor Ramon for Face To Face. He tells Jeff Jarrett that the Garden is like his second home, and in his schedule defending the title, he spends more time in New York than in Miami. He says that this is Jarrett's first time in the Garden, where he is undefeated. We then hear from Jarrett, who says the New York fans stink. He says they may be called "enthusiastic," but to him they are "loudmouthed foreigners." He says Razor Ramon reminds him of the loudmouth New York fans, and the Intercontinental Championship will soon be his.
Ludvig Borga vs. Tatanka: next week on Raw!
Before the next match, "Double J" Jeff Jarrett says his debut on Superstars is what everyone has been waiting for, and tells everyone not to forget his name.
"Double J" Jeff Jarrett beats Chris Duffy in his WWF debut. During the match, we hear pre-recorded comments from Jeff Jarrett, who says that whatever he wants, he takes when it comes to what he wants for Christmas.

It is also announced that Lex Luger is denied entry in the Royal Rumble Match due to the clause in the SummerSlam contract where if Lex Luger did not win the title, he would not get another chance at Yokozuna for the WWF Championship. It is announced than an opinion poll over whether or not to let Luger into the Rumble is now open, and there will be more details this weekend on All-American Wrestling.

It is then announced that Razor Ramon will defend the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Irwin R. Schyster.

Jim Ross re-advertises the show at Madison Square Garden on January 17th. Rick Steiner faces Ludvig Borga. We then hear from Tatanka, who says he is physically ready because when he got injured and felt all the pain he had inside, he went back to his homeland where he could gain the wisdom from his elders and sit down with a medicine man who could help him heal faster. He has trained six days a week, two-and-a-half hours a day for his return, so he is definitely ready for Yokozuna, who has created an animal. He has realized that Yokozuna brought something out when he put him in all that pain, and he will soon feel that pain himself. We then hear from Jim Cornette (accompanied by Mr. Fuji and Yokozuna), who does not care about Tatanka's revege and says that Tatanka has no chance at the WWF Championship. He says that Yokozuna and the WWF Championship,

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.

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.

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.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for March 15, 1993
For once, Vince McMahon, Rob Bartlett and "Macho Man" Randy Savage aren't on commentary. Instead, it's Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan. An unknown guy who obviously isn't Vince McMahon does his best Vince impersonation before the show begins.
Razor Ramon beats Russ Greenberg.
Typhoon beats L.A. Gore.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan doesn't even know how to start the interview with Giant Gonzales.

Whippleman was right about having a big surprise for the WWF, but he can't get an opponent who's willing to fight him...except the Undertaker, who stood up to him at Royal Rumble. Whippleman tells Undertaker to bring the biggest coffin he can find, as Undertaker and Paul Bearer will both be laying in it when Giant Gonzales destroys them. Speaking of Giant Gonzales, he has a giant surprise for Undertaker himself.
Bob Backlund gets a surprise win on Papa Shango.
It is announced that WrestleMania IX will be the world's largest toga party: the announcers, cameraman and even some people in the audience will all be wearing togas.

The Nasty Boys (Brian Knobbs and Jerry Saggs) vs. The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu) ends in a double-disqualification when the fight goes outside and weapons, food and condiments come into play.
We take a moment to look at the numerous amounts of community service made by the WWF.
