[Vince McMahon] WWE superstar,
the mere mention of Bret Hart's name by Brian Pillman
sent "Stone Cold" Steve Austin into a blind rage.
Imagine, this is what Stone Cold did to his alleged best friend,
Brian Pillman.
[Jerry Lawler] That's right. If this is how Austin treats his friends,
imagine what he'll do to Bret Hart at Survivor Series.
[McMahon] And there is Bret.
Yes, The Hitman joining us live
from his living room in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
[Lawler] And also live from the WWE studios in Stamford, Connecticut,
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
And when he talks, everybody listens.
[McMahon] Ladies and gentlemen,
the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion Shawn Michaels,
taking on his own nemesis, the British Bulldog.
All that and more tonight on Monday Night Raw.
[intro music playing]
[McMahon] Yes indeed, welcome everyone to Monday Night Raw.
Vince McMahon here along with Jerry "The King" Lawler,
and look who's coming out to the ringside area.
Here comes the real "Double J" Jesse James.
What about it, King?
[Lawler] I'll tell you.
I think the fireworks are gonna be flying here tonight on Raw.
The Yankees winning the World Series has nothing on us here tonight.
I'm telling you, it's gonna be special.
[McMahon] "Double J" Jesse James.
[Lawler] Look at that idiot with that crown on.
[McMahon] Yes. Here he comes.
Making his return to the squared circle after living in the shadows.
He is ready to step right up front indeed, and ready for action.
The charismatic "Double J" Jesse James.
-[Lawler] Is that his singing we hear? -That's his singing.
[Lawler] Can we gong him?
[McMahon] I don't think so.
Not the gong show indeed,
but Salvatore Sincere ready to lock up in action.
And of course old Double J there, Jesse James,
there's a look at him from Desert Storm.
There he is with no hat on.
Right out there on the action, ladies and gentlemen, in the desert,
and no doubt, training a little bit as well
But right now here tonight in action,
Salvatore Sincere against "Double J" Jeff Jarrett
to open up things here tonight on Monday Night Raw.
All right. Sal, locking up now.
How sincere do you think Salvatore really is?
[Lawler] Did you just say "Double j" Jeff Jarrett?
-I may have. -This guy's name is Jesse James.
[McMahon] Yeah, you-- I think you're right.
[McMahon] "Double J" Jesse James.
The real Double J, I should say.
[Lawler] Oh, nice shot there, Sal.
[McMahon] How sincere is Salvatore?
[Lawler] Well, you know, [in Italian accent] he loves everybody.
-[McMahon] He does, huh? -Yeah.
[McMahon laughs]
I sort of doubt that. I think he loves himself.
I think that's for sure.
-[Lawler] Sincerely. -Yes.
[McMahon] Standing side headlock now, ladies and gentleman, Salvatore Sincere.
To the ropes.
Downstairs goes Double J, right back up-- leapfrog nicely done.
Double J stays downstairs, not for long.
Another leapfrog. Here we go.
Collision and-- No.
Look at that. A block and a hip toss. Look at this.
-[Lawler] What? -And finally, Salvatore goes over the top.
[Lawler] What was going on?
Double J's up, he's down, he's up, he's down,
and then he throws Salvatore over the top rope.
I think that's grounds for a disqualification.
[McMahon] There he is. The real "Double J" Jesse James.
[McMahon] By the way-- Uh-oh, look at that strut.
By the way, a little bit later on,
we'll be showing you some footage of just yesterday involving Brian Pillman,
and I'll tell you that was an ugly sight indeed
we saw just a little bit there in the opening of Raw.
Brian Pillman having to undergo yet another ankle reconstruction.
at the Good Samaritan hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio,
and will be out of action for who knows how long.
Maybe-- Maybe forever.
[Lawler] He'll get no sympathy from me.
I heard his doctor was a real cut up. [laughs] Get it?
[McMahon] And right now, "Double J" Jesse James
having his problems as you would suspect anyone would
against Salvatore Sincere.
Sincere-- Oh, missing with the elbow,
and third body drop, one, two.
Didn't quite put him away.
Off the rope-- And look out.
Sal Sincere right back up on his feet,
and here we go.
Double J--
-[McMahon] Oh, wait a minute. -Move back, ref.
[Lawler] Look at that!
[McMahon] And hammering away. Double J.
He will definitely take it to you if you let him.
And a block, and Sal Sincere hammering away as well.
Retaliation by Salvatore Sincere.
-[Lawler] Look out -Look out-- Oh.
-[Lawler] Oh. -A little showboating going on.
[McMahon] And again, hand strut.
This man can sing, this man can dance, and he can definitely wrestle.
We go take another look now.
Live action in the right of your screen. A little showboating will not pay off.
Oh, my.
[McMahon] Still to come, ladies and gentlemen,
right here tonight on WWE Raw.
We got-- Yes, the British Bulldog against Shawn Michaels,
the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion.
Plus live from Calgary, Alberta, via satellite, "The Hitman" Bret Hart,
and live from our WWE studios, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
[Lawler] Oh, I can't wait to see those two get it on.
Oh, this is gonna be good.
Are the sensors here?
[McMahon] Uh, we are live.
Both the studio and the satellite hook up,
so anything can happen here in World Wrestling Entertainment.
Look "Stone Cold" Steve Austin,
no doubt watching this match-up just as Bret "The Hitman" Hart is as well.
-Wait a minute. -[Lawler] Come on-- Oh, no, no.
[McMahon] And…to the canvas!
[McMahon] And now, begging off a little bit.
There he is, Salvatore Sincere.
[McMahon] And moving right in. Look at this.
Very impressive thus far,
the return of the real "Double J" Jesse James.
-[Lawler] Look at this. -Oh, look out!
Two elbows double hit there, and--
Uh-oh, Salvatore Sincere is in big time trouble.
[Lawler] I take exception to that, McMahon.
-It takes a king to know a king. -[McMahon] I see.
-This guy never knew Elvis. -[McMahon] Uh-huh.
[McMahon] We like to take this opportunity to thank many of our fans,
ladies and gentlemen,
who were on hand over this past weekend
for WWE live events in Chicago at the Rosemont horizon.
Boy, did you get a big surprise there.
The announcement of Wrestlemania will take place in suburban Chicago.
-Look. -[Lawler] Look out!
-[Lawler] Ow. -Whoa!
[McMahon] A cover, a count.
And how about it?
A very impressive return to World wrestling Entertainment action
by the real "Double J" Jesse James.
-[Lawler] Don't worry, McMahon. -What?
They'll be singing a different tune when I get a hold of it.
When anybody gets a hold of it.
[McMahon] We're going to take you a look at now the way,
Double J--the real Double J polished off Sal Sincere, go ahead, King.
[Lawler] Yeah, he had a sincere singing, a low note right there, but--
[McMahon laughs]
[McMahon] Double J could be on his way to the Survivor Series,
ladies and gentlemen.
Uh-huh.
[McMahon] Apeaking of that Survivor Series this year,
well, Milton Bradley Karate Fighters is gonna present the WWE Survivor Series,
live November 17 from Madison Square Garden,
the mecca of all arenas.
And Dok,
I know you're getting pumped and excited
about Survivor Series live here on our studios.
I'm really pumped about Survivor Series.
First of all, the whole Survivor Series weekend,
it kicks off Saturday night, November 16th,
at the beautiful Marriott Marquis with the Hall of Fame banquet.
Eight new members will be inducted into the Hall of Fame and that--
We already got a problem here,
because nobody cares about eight old farts getting a trophy handed to them.
And don't you dare sit there like a jackass with a pair of blinders on,
and ignore Stone Cold.
You get me on the camera and do your damn job.
[McMahon] All right. Dok, go ahead.
Let's talk about the Survivor Series card.
As we know it now, Madison Square Garden, November 17th.
First of all, you will see Shawn Michaels defend the WWE title
against good friend, at least for now, Sycho Sid,
and Shawn will be here later on Raw, taking on the British Bulldog.
We will also see two Survivor Series teams compete against each other.
One will be captained by the brand new Intercontinental Champion,
Hunter Hearst-Helmsley,
as he teams up with Goldust, Crush, and you King.
That's right, Jerry "The King" Lawler to take on The Wildman's team.
The Wildman will have Olympian, Mark Henry,
he will have "The Stalker" Barry Windham, and WWE rookie Rocky Maivia.
But you will also see The Undertaker against Mankind with Paul Bearer,
hoisted high above Madison Square Garden inside of a steel cage.
And of course, you will see
the 1996 King of the Ring award Winner, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin,
meet the Excellence of Execution.
We have already seen Stone Cold's live here on the studio.
We know that Bret is live at home in Calgary.
-What a match-- -Why is he live in home in Calgary?
Because that's--
What the hell do you mean, Calgary?
-You flew me all the way from Texas here. -I didn't do it.
Things like this will get someone's ass kicked, Dok.
That's the bottom line.
And the bottom line to Bret Hart is at Madison Square Garden,
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin is gonna whip your ass.
[McMahon] Sorry Dok for the interruption.
Nonetheless, all of that and more will happen,
of course at the Survivor Series.
And yes indeed,
more action coming up right here tonight on Raw, ladies and gentlemen.
Still to come,
Shawn Michaels squaring off against the British Bulldog.
What a match that's gonna be.
Two extraordinary athletes.
And live, there he is, "The Hitman" Bret Hart, scheduled to join us,
and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin live as well.
Make up.
Anything can happen here in World Wrestling Entertainment.
Stay with us everyone for more of World Wrestling Entertainment action.
[McMahon] We're back for more WWE Raw.
On his way to the squared circle, Crush,
of course accompanied by one Clarence Mason.
Aldo Montoya--
Jailbird, that's gonna raise his ire.
Speaking of someone, ladies and gentlemen,
who should unquestionably be angry and no doubt is,
joining us via telephone,
I believe we have "The Wildman" Marc Mero.
-Wildman, are you there? -[Wildman] I'm here, Vince.
Can we talk a little bit about last week's Raw?
Can we talk about what people are calling the perfect hoax?
Your reaction to what Mr. Perfect pulled on you last week.
Well, Vince you might call it a perfect hoax, a perfect plan.
You know, let me tell you something.
I am perfectly pissed off.
And I don't care,
I'm begging Gorilla Monsoon to reinstate Mr. Perfect.
In the meantime,
if I see him in a parking lot, an alley, an airport,
when I get my hands on him,
I'm gonna pull that scrawny blonde hair out of that fat head of his
and have him pay for what he did to Wildman.
And as far as Hunter, Hunter, you have now become the hunted.
At Survivor Series, you have a team and I have a team.
My guys know how bad I wanna get my hands on you.
And when I do, I promise you,
Madison Square Garden, the entire world,
is gonna actually feel sorry for you, Hunter.
[Lawler] Hey, Marc Mero, can you hear me this?
Yeah, I can hear you King.
And you're on their team, King.
That's right. I'm on Hunter's team.
I'll watch it now
because we're gonna find out how many whoppers
are gonna sit on your fat head.
[Lawler] Oh, is that so? I wanna know one thing from you.
How did Mr. Perfect get so close to you to begin with?
I heard it was because he got real close to Sable first.
-Sable had nothing to do with it. -[Lawler laughs]
This is my fault. I let Perfect into that inner circle.
I trusted him, I believed in him,
and he stabbed me in the back, he's gonna pay for it.
I don't care how long it takes.
His days are numbered…
[McMahon] Thanks for joining us,
and we wish you all the luck in the world.
"Wildman" Marc Mero, ladies and gentlemen.
Obviously, looking forward to Survivor Series,
and looking forward to getting his hands on Mr. Perfect somewhere,
and no doubt Hunter Hearst-Helmsley in the ring.
Right now, Crush, one-on-one, with Aldo Montoya.
Joining us here, ladies and gentlemen well, yes, there he is, Jim Ross.
JR, how you doing?
[Jim] It's about time I got a little introduction here.
[McMahon] What about your microphone? It seems to be working.
-[Jim] We fired another guy. -Uh-huh.
[Jim] No thanks to you.
[Jim] I got big news for you guys.
I didn't come out here to waste my time.
This is a preliminary match, I should be broadcasting Shawn Michaels' live show.
[McMahon] We're talking about--
Right here tonight on Raw, we're talking about all kind of action.
We're talking about the British Bulldog against Shawn Michaels.
We're talking about the Hitman and Stone Cold--
[Jim] My goodness.
[Lawler] Whoa!
[Jim] You know this match is-- This is a no-brainer.
McMahon, you wanna-- You wanna bet on this match?
I'll take Crush.
[McMahon] You probably bet on the World Series too.
You probably wanna take it on.
Go ahead with the news now. What's your news?
[Jim] Well, I just wanna let you guys know something,
like to clue you all in on a couple of things.
I've been-- I had a long conversation with Farooq,
and we know Farooq is caught in citing a lawsuit against Ahmed Johnson.
-[McMahon] What? -Absolutely.
[Jim] And I have recommended that Farooq retain the services
of Clarence Mason.
Believe it or not, King, they hit it off so well,
that Farooq has retained Clarence Mason as Farooq's new manager.
[Lawler] Well, if they go to court, see if they can get that O.J. jury.
[McMahon] By the way, Farooq, will be on with Clarence Mason, yes,
on live wire, live from our WWE studios this coming Saturday.
[Jim] You're gonna see some big changes in Farooq.
Big changes.
-[McMahon] Really? -Take it from me. Big changes.
You'll see on Saturday morning.
[McMahon] Look at this, Aldo Montoya.
Here we go.
Dropkicking the big man, still on his feet.
[Jim] Crush is a lot like Michael Irvin,
you keep him out of jail, he's a pretty good player.
[McMahon] Oh please, knock it off.
[McMahon] Aldo Montoya with the big man down.
Anything can happen here in World Wrestling Entertainment.
[Jim] Is that jockey strapped on Aldo's face your idea, Vince?
[McMahon] Oh, and a backdrop there by Crush,
and Crush at the moment is dominating the match-up.
Aldo Montoya, game young man--
-Uh-oh. -[Jim] Look out, here it comes.
[Jim] Here comes the Heart Punch.
[Jim] That move would not affect Vince McMahon.
-What do you mean by that? -You have no heart.
[McMahon] A cover, a count, and a victory for Crush.
[Jim] Thanks for letting me come out here, guys,
in this preliminary match, I appreciate it.
-[Lawler] Can't you stick around, Jim? -No. What for?
To be humiliated by Mr. Ego?
[McMahon] I beg your pardon? JR, nice to have you out here.
[Lawler] Speaking of humiliation,
these fans should not be allowed
to have these stupid signs around this man.
[Lawler] Snatch 'em. Grab those signs and rip them apart.
[McMahon] Well, we know what Crush has been doing to a…
[Lawler] Look at that sign.
[McMahon] He's taking umbrage with some sort of a sign here.
[McMahon] He hates being called Jailbird.
It drives him nuts.
He can't concentrate on the match at all.
And Crush looks like he's--
Wait a minute.
-[McMahon] What's he-- -[Lawler] Hold it!
[McMahon] What's this? Crush attacking a security.
-[Lawler] Get him, Clarence. -And look at this.
[Lawler] Stop him.
-[Lawler] Whoa! -Oh, no.
[McMahon] There is gonna be a lawsuit here.
Look at this.
They're trying to pull Crush off this unfortunate individual.
[Lawler] Whoa.
[McMahon] Crush, manhandling this individual.
The sign suspecting individual in the crowd.
[Lawler] I'm telling you, McMahon, tonight is gonna be wild.
[McMahon] You talk about manhandling, how about what happened just last week?
Look at this.
[Lawler] Whoa.
[McMahon] Now, that really was a ruse.
He feigned to be injured right there,
and then went out with an entourage.
I'll tell you what I've done, Helmsley.
Marc Mero, the stand up kind of guy that he is,
and the Information that I gave him
that brought him the Intercontinental Championship,
the stand-up guy offered to wrestle you in my place.
I'll tell you what.
The only way I'll wrestle him is if he puts that on the line.
Put the Intercontinental title on the line and let's do it.
He'll do it in a heartbeat.
What kind of champion are you? Show him what kind.
Of course he'll wrestle you.
Of course.
You know, Mr. Perfect,
you helped me out to win the Intercontinental belt.
I'm gonna return the favor.
Let's get it on!
-[crowd cheering] -[McMahon] Yes, indeed.
[McMahon] Wildman, ready to get it on. But look what happened
Hunter Hearst-Helmsley trying to use a chair,
Sable trying to pull, Mr. Perfect came to Sable's rescue.
She thought that Mr. Perfect was gonna just lay up on Hunter Hearst-Helmsley.
[Lawler] Watch this.
Yes!
-[McMahon] Unbelievable. -[Lawler laughs]
And then the Pedigree after the perfect hoax.
It was a nightmare for Sable, and even worse than that for the Wildman.
-And then the celebration. -[Lawler] New intercontinental Champion.
-Unbelievable. -[Lawler] Thanks to Mr. Perfect.
[McMahon] Nonetheless, he was then perfectly suspended by Gorilla Monsoon,
but not until after this celebration.
Bozo and bimbo.
[laughs]
[McMahon] Gorilla Monsoon suspended Mr. Perfect,
and this is what happened yesterday.
Just because I fooled everybody in World Wrestling Entertainment,
all the fans,
with Hunter Hearst-Helmsley winning the Intercontinental Championship,
Gorilla Monsoon, he takes me out of wrestling,
right when I'm ready to make this big comeback,
and win the World Wrestling Entertainment title,
Monsoon suspends me indefinitely, that's a bunch of crap.
[McMahon] Well, nonetheless,
we won't see Mr. Perfect in the ring any time soon,
but we will see "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, ladies and gentlemen, yes.
And there he is live in our WWE studios.
Mr. Austin, can you hear us?
Yes. Stop jerking me around, Vince.
You bring me on the air and then you don't wanna give no airtime.
-You're gonna get air time. -What are you cutting me off for?
What-- This is a rib, right?
You're kidding-- You're kidding me, right?
[narrator] Unstoppable.
Headstone.
Uncontrollable.
Cyberfist.
Unbelievable.
Tiger Ninja.
Incomparable.
And now, the Milton Bradley Karate Fighters holiday tournament.
Welcome everybody,
to the first round match-up here in the tournament.
Now, it's Mr. Perfect taking on Phineas I. Godwinn.
[Lawler] Oh, he's a pig all right.
[Toddster] Let's get some pre-game comments.
Hey everybody,
playing this here new Electronic Karate Fighters
is a lot more fun than sitting down to a big old plate
of Granny's cathead biscuits and devil hot cakes.
Yee doggy!
You know me, I'm going with Headstone.
But it really doesn't matter who I go with, because I'm perfect.
Predictions, King?
Well, Perfect is perfect.
There's nothing more to say.
All right. Well, let's take you to the action now with Carve Albert.
[Carve Albert] All right, Toddster.
The bell has rung here at Karate Fighter Coliseum.
-Dolly Parton. -Who--where?
-[Carve] Yes! -You dumb hillbilly.
[Carve] Let's look again.
Phineas distracted.
Another spectacular move by Headstone.
That's perfect.
Mr. Perfect cheated.
Oh, come on. Dolly was there.
I saw her myself.
The first one is in the books.
Mr. Perfect advances.
Now, coming up next week,
you're gonna see Sycho Sid taking on Marlena.
For The King, it's the Toddster. We will see you next week.
[McMahon] Welcome back.
Yes, next week via satellite, we have Bret Hart live from Calgary.
Next week, ladies and gentleman, joining us, the injured Brian Pillman
live from his home in Cincinnati, Ohio. However--
[Stone Cold] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
Live from his home?
What do you mean you're gonna go live from his home?
You go to Bret's house, you go to Brian's house,
well, why didn't you go to Victoria, Texas, and come to my house?
-[McMahon] Mr. Austin, you are live-- -No, shut up!
If anybody is going to Brian's house next week,
well, you can damn well bet
that "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is gonna be there.
Because if you're gonna have a little party with some cripple freak,
you can bet I'll be there and that's a bottom line.
[McMahon] Don't you think you've done enough to Brian Pillman?
What do you mean I've done enough?
-What do you mean done enough? -All right. Let's take you back.
Let's show you the footage of what happened.
WWE Superstars just yesterday.
Here we go.
And let's listen up.
You called him a crippled freak.
The whole damn world is gonna find out
I will do exactly what I say.
I am gonna whip his ass.
[Stone Cold] See, here's the problem.
Here's the problem. It's my interview.
-[McMahon] Yeah. -[Stone Cold] Listen.
Austin versus the best there was.
[Stone Cold] This is a mistake.
And the best--
[McMahon] I can't believe that. Look.
[Stone Cold] And the light bulb went off in my head,
and Brian Pillman took my interview time
and tried to turn it into The Hitman's interview time,
and that just ain't gonna work with Stone Cold.
[McMahon] This man is crippled.
-Look at-- -[Stone Cold] Wham! [laughs]
[McMahon] Look what you did. You took his very cane.
-That's right. -And you struck that ankle.
And then look what you did when you brought a chair into the ring.
[Stone Cold] That's right.
If I had a little more time with that cane,
who knows what I would have done with it.
[McMahon] And then,
as they were taking Brian Pillman out in the emergency vehicle,
you stopped the progress of the emergency vehicle with that car.
You wouldn't let him go,
you wouldn't let them take him to the hospital.
[Stone Cold] Well, that's because if they're gonna take him anywhere,
they should have carried his ass to the cemetery
because if he comes back, that's where he's gonna go.
[Lawler] Are you telling us you're gonna go to his house?
That you're gonna go to Pillman's House, you live at Pillman's House?
Hey, when you get jerked around as long as I have,
and when the WWE starts jerking you around,
you got to do what you got to do.
Brian Pillman's gonna get a house call.
[McMahon] What kind of a man are you?
What kind of a man would do that to his best friend?
What kind of a creep are you?
You see, here's the thing.
Here's the thing Brian Pillman forgot.
DTA, brother.
-Don't trust anybody. -[McMahon] Right.
You thought I was your friend.
You were the biggest puppet in the world,
and I had the strings and there you were.
-[McMahon] He was crippled! -That's right.
He's still a crippled man,
and he's got that stupid raspy voice with 33 3rd operation.
Who really gives a rat's ass about all that?
It's Stone Cold's time. Shut up.
[McMahon] Why hasn't Gorilla Monsoon taken action against you?
Why do you keep asking me stupid questions?
Because you know, Vince, that Gorilla Monsoon is just a puppet.
That's all.
You know you're the one that's pulling all the strings here.
You're the boss.
Why don't you do something to me?
-Because something-- -No, no, no, shut up.
I'll tell you why.
Because you're a greedy, selfish promoter,
and you know Stone Cold and Bret Hart are gonna get it on
in the biggest match of the decade,
and you don't wanna miss out.
You're gonna fill your back pocket full, son.
-But listen to this. -[McMahon laughs]
I wanna make a lot of money from this match.
But I'll just as well kick his ass for free.
[McMahon] All right. In any event, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin,
live in our studios.
And ladies and gentlemen, scheduled to join us momentarily,
Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
There he is, live from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
We're gonna get it on face-to-face when we return.
Stay with us, everyone, for more Raw.
[McMahon] We're back with more WWE Raw.
And "The Hitman" Bret Hart, there he is with family members.
And "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
All right, gentlemen, you waited long enough.
Bret, did you happen to see
the actions of Stone Cold just yesterday on Superstars?
Did you see what he did to his alleged best friend, Brian Pillman?
Yeah, I saw it.
-Answer him. -I saw it.
I saw it.
-It reminded me of hyenas, two hyenas-- -[Stone Cold blows a raspberry]
[McMahon] Bret, I'm sorry. Wait a minute. Yeah.
Bret, Stone Cold, please stay with us for a moment.
On her way to the ring,
here comes Sunny, stealing the spotlight as per usual.
Well, she knows how to do that.
-No doubt about that. -[Lawler] Quiet, McMahon. Look at this.
[McMahon] I know, that's right.
Whoa!
[McMahon] Yeah!
[McMahon] Sunny!
[McMahon] Look at this.
[Lawler] Settle down. Sit down, McMahon. She's here to see me.
Sunny.
-Oh! -[McMahon] Oh.
[McMahon] Check it out.
Be still, my beating heart.
-[Lawler] Oh. -Keep looking.
[McMahon] All right, Sunny. How are you doing? Yeah.
Look at the smile on The King's face.
Huh?
[Lawler] Wow.
[McMahon] Whoa!
Sunny out here.
-Put that right there. -Right in the lap of the King.
Oh!
[McMahon] Oh, my goodness, look at The King.
Let's look at Sunny.
But on his way to the squared circle right now,
ladies and gentlemen, Billy Gunn.
Billy in part having a problem just yesterday on WWE Superstars.
Brian Pillman by himself having problems indeed.
Here we go. Here's what happened.
Again, they have not been getting along at all.
[Sunny] Fighting over me, no doubt.
[McMahon] And-- Well, I'm not so sure about that.
[McMahon] And in any event,
Billy took off and left Bart all by himself.
Nonetheless, Bart was victorious.
And Billy ready for action.
You know, Billy Gunn has actually nothing to say about me
being out here and sitting on The King's lap.
I can do anything I want. I'm a free woman.
I'm sure that's right.
Oh, what are you looking at?
I dumped him and he's still looking at me.
How about that?
He can't take his eyes off of me.
Neither can you.
-I can't blame him, Sunny. -[Sunny laughs]
Nonetheless, Billy Gunn, ladies and gentlemen,
no doubt will attempt to impress Sunny.
Go smile at somebody else, buddy.
He just winked over this way. I'm not too sure.
Maybe he was looking at you, King.
Can you blame him? I mean, look at me.
I'm looking pretty good tonight, huh?
[McMahon] Here we go.
We got Freddie Joe Floyd against Billy Gunn in Singles competition.
The Gunns have done exceedingly well for themselves,
and to a certain extent in part to your effort, Sunny.
[Sunny] Yeah, but I hope Billy Gunn did his homework
because Freddie Joe Floyd is someone to contend with.
I've seen his talent
for about seven years now all over the world, and he's tough.
[Lawler] Let me ask you, Sunny.
Did you ever care about either of these guys?
The one thing I have to say is Billy was my favorite of the two.
He is the cuter one. He is the blonde. I like blondes.
-No offense. -Of course.
You're the only brunette I've ever liked.
[McMahon] I thought you liked the quiet, silent type, sometimes.
Well, you know, quiet and silent is good sometimes,
but Billy has got that killer smile that I was always attracted to,
and he seems to have more of a killer instinct than Bart.
And I kind of went for the guys with the killer instinct.
Those are the ones who gold, those are the winners,
so, what do you want me to do?
[McMahon] So Billy Gunn obviously
impressed you just yesterday on Superstars, Sunny.
[Sunny] That's correct, yeah, he did impress me.
Bart's got a little bit to learn, I think.
[McMahon] Let's face it, you're not easily impressed, right?
[Sunny] Well, it's obviously very hard.
Can you tell? With my history? Jeez.
-Wait a minute. -[indistinct clamoring]
What's going on out here? Wait.
[McMahon] Hey, Billy, what is this?
Right next to Sunny.
[Lawler] Sunny, be careful.
[McMahon] And Bart is out here.
I got her, I don't need you.
[indistinct shouting]
I'll take you to the ring, and rip your hands out!
-Right now, let's go. -You're nothing!
-Get in the ring now. -You're nothing!
-Get in the ring. -You're nothing!
[indistinct shouting]
[McMahon] Bart Gunn, out here to take on Billy Gunn.
[indistinct shouting]
[referee] Bart, get your butt in the ring!
[McMahon] Right now, it may take a little order around here,
and they sent Bart back at the locker room area,
but Billy in this match-up resuming a hard right hand,
and down goes Freddie Joe Floyd.
[Lawler] They're fighting over you.
[Sunny] As always they are.
I don't know who he thinks he is coming out here right next to me,
but he better not try it again.
-I might catch something. -You're mine, boy. You're mine.
[McMahon] Oh, boy.
[McMahon] Right, Billy and Bart Gunn continue to have their problems,
and nonetheless,
Billy attempting to impress in Singles competition.
And Freddie Joe Floyd has upset WWE superstars before.
This could be the night as well.
-Yes, nice elbow, Freddie Joe Floyd. -[Sunny] Not bad but watch out.
[McMahon] Uh-huh, underneath the roundhouse right,
look at this, Freddie Joe, very impressive.
[Sunny] You see, that's why I dumped him.
Take a look.
[McMahon] Freddie Joe with a cover, almost a pin there.
[McMahon] By the way, live, Bret Hart--
Oh, my goodness.
You know, I follow that gold everywhere I can,
and you know, there was always hope,
like I said, he's got that killer smile,
and he's got the gold around his waist, maybe we can compromise on that.
[Lawler] I heard Todd Pettengill say
that you were a gold digger, but you dig the gold, right?
-I dig the gold, babe. -All around the waist.
I don't consider myself a gold digger, I'm just an ambitious young woman,
looking after her own financial needs.
Ambitious, beautiful young woman.
Thank you very much.
[McMahon] Her role model might just be Hillary Clinton.
Oh, I love Hillary, she's the next president,
I can guarantee it.
[McMahon] She's aggressive, no doubt about that, and so are you.
[Sunny] Well, that's one more victory for Billy Gunn,
he's not looking too bad today, either.
Maybe there is hope after all.
[McMahon] Could be,
and we thank you very much for joining us out here this week
on Monday Night Raw.
[McMahon] And if Sunny were running for election and well see…
-[Lawler] I'd vote for her. -Yeah, a lot of people would.
[Lawler] Early and often.
There you have it, ladies and gentlemen,
Bret "The Hitman" Hart, "Stone cold" Steve Austin.
Gentlemen, we thank you so much for your patience.
Bret, let's get the first question if you don't mind, to you.
Some say that the reason you took so long in making up your mind,
to come back to action here in World Wrestling Entertainment,
well, there are a number of reasons,
but principal among them is that you knew
that Steve Austin was the man who had challenged you.
And my question is,
whether or not,
is that one of the reasons
why you were reticent to make up your mind?
No, not at all.
I think what you're looking at,
looking at 12 years,
and if you really wanna add on even more years than that, you can,
because I've grown up with wrestling my whole life.
And you're looking at 12 years without any kind of a break,
of being physically mauled by giants and great wrestlers
for years and years and years.
And it just take-- It just took its toll.
And I'll be the first one to say this,
Steve Austin "Stone Cold" is a great wrestler.
And I knew immediately upon seeing him
that I was gonna be dealing with a very, very tough wrestler.
But as far as--
He had nothing to do
with my decision to step back from wrestling, none whatsoever.
Basically, loosely translated, you're saying,
"Yes, Vince, I'm afraid Stone Cold is gonna kick my ass".
That's what you're saying.
[McMahon] Is that what you're saying?
Yeah, somehow, you need to clean that up a bit.
[McMahon] I think so.
As far as you kicking my "ass",
There you go!
you maybe should think twice about that.
I don't know if you've got what it takes to kick my ass.
I've actually recuperated, I've been off, I'm ready for this match.
[McMahon] But Bret, if I may--
-I'm better than I've ever been. -[Stone Cold] Sure.
[McMahon] If I can ask you this, what about the fact
that you have not been in the ring for some six months,
and there must be some ring rust.
Would it not have been more wise
for you to accept a match with a lesser individual
rather than "Stone Cold" Steve Austin?
Right.
Answer!
I don't-- I don't see it that way,
There might be a little ring rust, maybe there won't be.
No one is gonna know until I get in the ring
how good or bad the five months off has affected my wrestling style.
But I don't really care.
I wanna go in,
I wanna accomplish a lot of things in World Wrestling Entertainment,
starting right now.
And what better way to do it than take on Stone Cold,
who I think,
and I said it before and I'll say it again now,
is the best wrestler in World Wrestling Entertainment
until November 17th.
[McMahon] But if Steve Austin defeats you,
I mean, obviously, this man has great confidence in himself,
he would not have challenged you.
He's trying to make a name for himself.
This is like a gun slinger type situation
where indeed you've got a reputation, he wants to live off of your reputation,
and if he defeats you in Madison Square Garden,
the question is then,
will you continue your comeback here on the WWE?
Well, I mean that's a very likely possibility,
and, you know, I thought about that,
and I'm willing to accept whatever happens in that match,
you know, and if I come up short,
then I'm just gonna get right back up on my horse
like a gun fighter,
and you know, live my life--
Well, see, here's-- No, here's the deal, shut up.
Here's the deal.
Win, lose, draw, Bret, it ain't over.
It ain't over. You're never gonna get through with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
You're gonna have to kill me first, son, that's the bottom line, it's the truth.
Win, lose, or draw, I will always be on your ass.
That's why I'm the Excellence of Execution--
Yeah, yeah, whatever.
Do you wanna wear a hood while you get assassinated or what?
Uh-huh.
I'm the best there is, the best there was,
the best there ever will be.
And you're gonna find that out first hand, son.
Say something!
You know…
You know, everyone thinks that because I'm coming back
that I have this built up impression in my head
that I'm gonna clean up the WWE,
but I know better than anyone else that it's gonna be a real hard job and…
[McMahon] Bret, we thank you so much for joining us.
-We're running out of time. -It's Austin's house now.
[McMahon] Thank you for joining us.
-Bret "The Hitman" Hart and Stone Cold-- -No, no, no, no.
You can tell him to go kiss off,
but I've been here all night, and I ain't leaving yet.
And you can stop counting me down,
because I told you once, son, we've got a damn problem.
[McMahon] Hey, wait!
[indistinct yelling]
[McMahon] That's a production assistant!
No, we ain't through, not by a long shot.
-You don't count me down. -[McMahon] What is this?
Nobody counts me down.
You want your precious monitors?
You think it's all fun and games for Stone Cold?
It ain't, it ain't fun and games.
Not by a long shot. [indistinct yelling continues]
[McMahon] "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is out of control.
[McMahon] Unbelievable.
[McMahon] Tonight Raw, brought to you by Footaction.
For every action there's footaction.
[Lawler] And by Sega Saturn,
the most powerful next generation gaming experience.
Sega Saturn, you just can't beat the system.
[McMahon] By the US army, look for the army hyperlink,
we could use the army in the studio.
On the WWE AOL site, and the TV Zone section
to find out where you can be, all you can be.
-Action back in the studio. -[Lawler] Owen, come here.
-[McMahon] Please. -Have a seat--
[Lawler] Oh, look at this beautiful Slammy award.
Let me get a shot of that, Owen.
Eat your hearts out you morons,
you'll never have a chance to have one of these.
[McMahon] There he is,
the powerhouse, the British Bulldog,
yes, the Bulldog, ready to lock up--
You ain't gonna ask me to do nothing.
-No, I'm gonna let you live, son. -Security.
-Take the hand off. -Sir--
[Lawler] Hey, that's the head of the security guard, Richard Shore.
I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
You're not asking me to do nothing because I will leave on my own.
[McMahon] We're back with more WWE, Monday Night Raw.
Here he comes.
[McMahon] You wanna talk about electricity?
You wanna talk about resilience,
and the man who gets knocked out and gets right back up on his feet,
you got to be talking about the charismatic WWE Champion,
you got to be talking about Shawn Michaels!
[McMahon] He's ready for action.
And last week he was ready for action as well.
Look at this double team effort all over Sycho Sid,
Michaels hits the ring, and takes care of action.
But Sid misunderstood why he was there.
[Owen Hart] Shawn Michaels and Sycho Sid better worry about their own problems.
[Lawler] Right.
[Hart] And not worry about me and the British Bulldog.
[McMahon] Indeed.
There he is, yes, WWE Champion, Shawn Michaels,
headed to the Survivor Series to defend
the World Wrestling Entertainment Championship
against the monster known as Sycho Sid.
-[Lawler] That's it McMahon, let me ask-- -Go ahead.
Let's ask Owen Hart.
So, Owen, is this not the most sickening display
of egotism that you've ever seen?
-I mean, look at this. -It's disgusting.
All these morons here,
falling over themselves over Shawn Michaels.
What makes him so great?
He doesn't have a Slammy like I do.
He doesn't have the WWE Tag Team belt like I do.
He goes around flaunting, you don't see me bragging like he does.
[McMahon] It might be an opportunity for you and the British Bulldog
to allow Shawn Michaels and someone to join forces,
maybe even Sycho Sid,
maybe they would become tag team champions,
given that opportunity.
But right now,
Michaels has Singles competition on his mind at the Survivor Series,
and right here, this week tonight, against the Bulldog.
All right. Ladies and gentlemen, by the way, this programming note,
a reminder next week we'll begin one hour earlier.
That's right, Raw begins one hour earlier next week, 7:57.
You don't wanna miss it
because we're gonna go right on up to Cincinnati,
to the home of Brian Pillman via satellite,
and hopefully Stone Cold was not serious.
[Lawler] Oh, yeah.
In addition, "The Wildman" Marc Mero,
oh, he is hot,
one-on-one against "The Bad Guy" Razor Ramon.
All that and more next week.
Set for the ride, off the rope, and down goes Shawn Michaels.
[Lawler] Yeah, what about that, Owen?
He knocked him clear across the ring, didn't he?
[Hart] You could see the combination of power, agility, and the speed.
-[Hart] He's got-- -[McMahon] Michaels ever go down.
[Hart] Bulldog has got all the attributes of Shawn Michaels,
but Bulldog is better,
he's more powerful, he's just as fast,
but he's not all egotistical, gloating to the crowd.
[McMahon] Right. And of course he's your co-holder, tag team champion.
-Also your brother-in-law. -[Hart] Absolutely. That's right.
[McMahon] Here we go.
Michaels now, standing side headlock on Davey Boy Smith, the British Bulldog.
Bulldog, let's see what he can do with Michaels now,
off the rope and--
Look at this, Michaels, underneath.
-[Lawler] Beautiful. -[McMahon] Look at that.
-[Lawler] Hey! -[Hart] He poked him in the eye.
[Lawler] How about that?
[McMahon] Shawn Michaels, beautiful maneuvering by Michaels
all over The British Bulldog.
Whoa.
-[McMahon] Here he comes. -[Lawler] Oh.
[McMahon] There he go.
[McMahon] The Bulldog, all wrapped up in a microphone cord,
and Michaels, all wrapped up in this capacity crowd.
He is a showman par excellence,
he is the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion,
Unquestionably, you have to grant him, his charisma is unreal.
[Hart] I don't know about unreal,
but he kind of loves to flaunt himself and he thinks pretty highly of himself.
And I give him credit, he's a great technical wrestler,
he's got a lot of ability,
but he doesn't have what it takes to beat the British Bulldog.
-[McMahon] Easy for you to say. -Very easy for me to say.
[Hart] I'll say this,
the Bulldog beat him last time at In your House,
but that no good Gorilla Monsoon cheated him out of it.
I was there, I witnessed it.
[Lawler] McMahon, you talk about unreal, look at the hair on Shawn Michaels.
Is that one of those fright wigs?
Is he getting ready for Halloween this Thursday night or something?
[Lawler] Look at that.
[McMahon] Shawn Michaels with a click, this capacity crowd…
Very much all the way behind.
[Hart] Wait a minute.
[McMahon] He can't stand it.
[Lawler] I don't blame him.
[Hart] He's disgusting.
He's flaunting his body, he's playing to the crowd.
[Hart] That's the best thing Bulldog could do, go outside, regroup,
collect his thoughts, and slap the little punk out.
[McMahon] It's tactic against Shawn Michaels.
[Lawler] Look.
-[McMahon] There you go. [laughs] -[Hart] That's sickening.
[Lawler] McMahon thinks it's funny.
[Hart] Well, that's McMahon, he's on a different cob than we all are.
[McMahon] Wait a minute, you were talking about psychological ethics here
and it seemed that Shawn Michaels
can certainly handle himself against the British Bulldog.
[Lawler] Where's Jim Ross when you need him, right?
-[Hart] That's right. -He'll put McMahon in his place.
[McMahon] By the way, ladies and gentlemen,
we've been notified that a security official in the studio called the cops.
[Lawler] What?
[McMahon] He's called the cops
and the police just might be on their way to our WWE studios.
[Lawler] What's the number, 911-donuts?
[McMahon] Oh, stop. All right, here we go.
The Bulldog with Shawn Michaels,
sets him up-- A little high on the right end,
-oh, yeah, like the New York Yankees. -[Lawler] Oh!
[Hart] I wonder where he stole that move from.
[Lawler] Right.
[McMahon] That was a tremendous maneuver,
reminiscent of course with the one you gave Michaels
when you put him out of action for some time.
And there, wisely Michaels is not going for the cover
Bulldog way too close to the ropes.
[Hart] Well, I'll say that same kick is what got me the Slammy.
I booted him in the head,
and could have ended his career that night but--
[McMahon] You took credit for ending it, didn't you?
I certainly did, it made me very famous.
I could have ended his career, but I had compassion.
[McMahon] You had what?
If I had a second chance,
believe me, I'd send it all the way and knock him out of wrestling,
so I wouldn't have to hear about HBK anymore.
You know what though, Owen?
They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
He's trying to copy your patented move just because he's, you know.
You should take that as a compliment. He knows you're the best.
-[McMahon] Hand full of hair and-- -[Lawler] Look.
[McMahon] Look at this here, all right, nice take down indeed, Shawn Michaels.
[Lawler] McMahon said it himself,
Shawn Michaels had a handful of Bulldog's hair.
-[McMahon] I know what I said. -[Hart] You too.
[Lawler] "Handful of hair."
[McMahon] I did.
You can obviously see whose hand had whose hair.
[McMahon] Back up on his feet.
Up the rope-- Oh, my goodness.
What a take down, and a kick-out by Michaels
right back up on his feet, lightning light quick.
Look at this.
-Go, go! -[Lawler] Oh, yeah!
[both] Oh!
[Lawler] Now, that was a thing of beauty, wasn't it Owen?
[Hart] That was beautiful.
[Lawler] Now, listen to these moronic fans.
[Hart] Real applause.
[McMahon] Bulldog all over Shawn Michaels.
And we'll take a look at this double feature
And by the way, again, ladies and gentlemen,
we can confirm now that the police have indeed been called.
That security guard has called the police on "Stone Cold" Steve Austin,
who apparently is still raising hell.
And look at this, Michaels is in trouble.
Stay with us as Raw continues.
All right, kid, let's see what you got.
[narrator] WWE Full Metal: The Album.
The entrance themes of your favorite WWE superstars.
This tune is making me wanna march. [laughs]
Full Metal: The Album.
[McMahon] We're back for more WWE Raw,
and the police are on their way to the WWE studios,
but here's what happened during the break.
Look at the power of "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith
attempting to assert himself.
[Lawler] Look, listen to Michaels feeding off all of these fans and their support.
He has a lot of fans.
He has that old fossil Jose Lothario on his corner.
[McMahon] Here we go, off the rope.
[Lawler] Oh! And it doesn't do him any good. [laughs]
[McMahon] Bulldog whipping a knee on the abdominal area of Shawn Michaels,
another cover, we have one, two, and--
Another kick-out.
There is no quit in Shawn Michaels,
whether it's for the title or--
Come on, ref.
[Lawler] Look! Beautiful.
[Hart] Shawn Michaels got his hair all tangled up in the Bulldog's knuckles.
[McMahon] Yeah, right.
[Lawler] He should pull that stringy mop right off his head.
[Hart] He should wash his hair and cut it.
[McMahon] Shawn Michaels going to the Survivor Series,
a lot got with Sycho Sid and you--
You have to think at any moment, Sid is going to explode.
We saw what happened last week,
and of course we know the history between these two,
anything can happen here in the WWE,
and look, the blood rushing down to the head,
and the Bulldog-- Ooh.
[Lawler] Yeah, now Shawn Michaels rushing down to the canvas.
Hey you know, we saw Stone Cold explode tonight.
If anybody can out-explode Stone Cold, it would be Sycho Sid.
[McMahon] Two, and-- no, a kick-out by Michaels.
Talk about Survivor Series,
all of you wishing-- Ladies and gentlemen, to be there live,
there you go, Madison Square Garden, the mecca itself,
212-307-7171, to call for tickets,
if you wanna be there live at the Survivor Series.
[Lawler] I'm gonna be there, McMahon, I'm in it.
[McMahon] The British Bulldog coming to your assistance just last week,
and of course from there,
Sid as in Sycho Sid is in the number one contender
for the World Wrestling Entertainment title, coming down as well.
[Hart] Again that's your version,
I don't remember Bulldog coming to my assistance.
All I remember is Sycho Sid was down, he was beat,
and Shawn Michaels poked his nose, then those two started bickering,
so, Bulldog and I, we don't have a problem,
we are a smooth running team,
but Sycho Sid and Shawn Michaels, they better get their stuff together.
[McMahon] Oh no! Samoan drop.
And that could very well take away from Michaels,
and a cover, one, two and-- No.
[Hart] Oh, that was a slow count.
[McMahon] And Michaels, remember now,
the title is not up for grabs in this match-up.
-[Lawler] But Michaels is a big-- -[McMahon] He's good.
[McMahon] And now take a look out this double feature,
and of course live action.
[Hart exclaims]
[McMahon] Devastating maneuver.
We have Shawn Michaels against the British Bulldog.
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin is still raising,
if you'll pardon the expression, hell back in the studio.
The police are definitely on their way,
and apparently, they have called for back-up.
[Lawler] Let me tell Stone Cold this.
We're gonna be an hour earlier next week, Stone Cold,
so you got to get to Pillman's house an hour earlier next week.
[Hart] McMahon is so biased,
all he talks about is how great Shawn Michaels is.
About the Bulldog? What about myself?
Or you, Jerry Lawler?
[Lawler] We're great.
[McMahon] What about Bret "The Hitman" Hart?
-[Hart] What about him? -That's who we wanna talk about.
I'm gonna puke if you talk about my lousy, worthless brother Bret.
He's a bum.
If it wasn't for me, the Hart name would be in the gutter.
Please. Back up on their feet now,
Shawn Michaels and the British Bulldog, going toe to toe,
what a match-up we knew this would be.
This athleticism found only in World Wrestling Entertainment,
off the rope and look at this, here we go,
oh, beautiful maneuver,
one, two--
Michaels almost got him.
-[McMahon] Forget it. -[Lawler] Yes.
[McMahon laughs]
-[Lawler] That was beautiful. -[McMahon] Mowing down Michaels.
[Lawler] Nobody sends the Bulldog to Obedience School.
[McMahon] Bulldog on his way to victory,
-perhaps, a cover, one, two, and-- -[Lawler] Got him!
[McMahon] A kick out.
Bulldog could very well be moments away from victory.
And Stone Cold could be moments away
of coming face to face with the cops who are on their way
to the WWE studios--
Oh, my goodness.
Anything can happen here on the WWE.
Series of headbutts, the Bulldog in control.
Shawn Michaels is in trouble, stay with us.
[McMahon] We are back for more WWE.
Back to Shawn Michaels and the British Bulldog,
going tooth and nail,
what a match-up this has been thus far.
its crept up to exactly what we thought it was going to be.
[Lawler] Come on, Bulldog.
[McMahon] Michaels giving it his all.
We used to speak about Bret Hart being the--
Well, the fightiest champion of all time,
but no one can hold a candle to Shawn Michaels.
Whether it's for the title or not, no one has competed in more matches.
Look at this,
Michaels now, driving the Bulldog to the rope.
No, with the roll up, and it won't work.
Look out!
-From the other side now, yeah. -[Lawler] Oh!
[crowd cheering]
[McMahon] Michaels better get up,
the Bulldog knowing full well
a victory here again puts him right where he wants to be.
By the way, again a reminder, next week, one hour earlier,
right here ladies and gentlemen, 7:57,
Raw begins one hour earlier, right here next week.
[Lawler screams]
[Hart] Get up Bulldog.
[McMahon] The Bulldog is up, Michaels is up.
Michaels with a hard right hand, set up the Bulldog,
off the rope and back body drop.
[Lawler] Things don't look good, Owen.
[Hart] Come on Bulldog, you can beat him.
[McMahon] Bulldog now,
trying to stop the awesome momentum at Shawn Michaels.
Michaels hammering away on Davey Boy Smith, "The British Bulldog."
And this capacity crowd counting every punch.
[crowd] Six! [cheering]
[Lawler] They condone flagrant rule violating.
-[Hart] He's a cheater. -[McMahon] Bulldog set up--
[McMahon] Reversal, Michaels into the buckle, not a good sign, uh-oh.
[Lawler] Look out!
-[McMahon] Here we go! -[Lawler] Oh!
[Hart] He's fierce!
[McMahon] Here we go. Michaels pushed him off the back.
[McMahon] Bulldog slammed to the canvas.
[Lawler] Uh-oh.
[McMahon] Shawn Michaels to the outside, high risk maneuver coming up.
[McMahon] Shawn Michaels on the top.
Can he hit the elbow?
[McMahon] Oh, my God. God!
[McMahon] How about some Sweet Chin Music?
[Hart] He better watch himself, that's it.
[McMahon] Hey, wait a minute.
[Lawler] Get him.
[McMahon] Owen Hart, hanging on the ankle of Shawn Michaels.
[McMahon] Oh come on, disqualification make it.
[Lawler] Yeah!
[crosstalk]
[McMahon] Look what they're doing to Michaels.
[Lawler] Shawn Michaels better call the cops.
[McMahon] Sid, here comes Sycho Sid.
[Lawler] What's he doing out here?
[McMahon] Sid, the very man who right here next week,
goes face-to-face with Michaels, is coming to his aid.
[Lawler] Why would he do that? Why would he…
-[both] Did you see that? -[Lawler] Yeah!
[McMahon] He just drove his elbow right into the back of Michaels.
[Lawler] He did it on purpose.
[McMahon] I'm not sure, but Michaels may think so.
[Lawler] Oh, here we go.
[McMahon] And maybe he did.
-[Lawler] Yes! -[McMahon] No.
-This is what we were afraid of. -[Lawler] Yes, yes!
-[McMahon] These two are gonna go at it. -Get it on, baby.
[McMahon] Sid is gonna explode or Michaels is gonna explode!
[Lawler] Come on, Sid. Nail him!
[McMahon] They're scheduled here next week to go face to face--
[Lawler] Oh, hold it, look at Sid.
[Hart] You two,
if you can't take yourselves away from each other
and fight each other,
I wanna challenge you and the British Bulldog,
and we will put our WWE tag team belts on the line,
-if you got the guts to fight us. -[Lawler] What?
[McMahon] I don't think…
[McMahon] Can they put their differences aside?
[McMahon] I guess so.
[McMahon] Sid…
[McMahon] Sid and Shawn are gonna get it on.
Perhaps they'll be tag team champions sometime in the future.
Next week they'll go face-to-face one hour earlier.
And of course, ladies and gentlemen,
in action, The Wildman,
who's in a foul mood against "The Bad Guy" Razor Ramon,
and Brian Pillman will join as well.
But wait, let's go back to earlier tonight.
-[Lawler] Yeah. -[McMahon] Look at this.
[McMahon] That's why cops have been called,
and the cops, we understand, have arrived back here in our WWE studios.
You think you're tough--
[McMahon] He's out of control.
He thinks he can do anything just to get his hands on Bret Hart.
And again, we are live.
[indistinct yelling]
[McMahon] That's the same security guard.
You can't do nothing to Stone Cold,
because Vince McMahon won't let nothing happen to me.
-[McMahon] What? -You gotta understand I'm a star.
[McMahon] He thinks he can do-- I can see the police.
Oh, I'll tell you this man is gonna be in trouble.
They're going to take him away in handcuffs.
What do you guys want?
[McMahon] Stone, we'll see one hour earlier, next week, 7:57. t.
