00:00:02,366 --> 00:00:04,666
[narrator]
The World Wrestling Entertainment,

2
00:00:04,733 --> 00:00:06,199
for over 50 years,

3
00:00:06,266 --> 00:00:09,900
the revolutionary force
in sports entertainment.

4
00:00:12,233 --> 00:00:13,566
The best there was,

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:15,833
the best there is,

6
00:00:16,933 --> 00:00:19,300
the best there ever will be.

7
00:00:20,433 --> 00:00:22,433
Tonight, Bret Hart,

8
00:00:22,500 --> 00:00:25,066
you and the whole world

9
00:00:25,133 --> 00:00:29,166
is gonna find out exactly what time it is.

10
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Because It's Vader Time.

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,699
[Vince] Tonight,
The Hitman takes on Vader.

12
00:00:35,766 --> 00:00:38,666
And Shawn Michaels is scheduled to be
right there at ringside as well.

13
00:00:38,733 --> 00:00:40,199
[Lawler] Sycho Sid's here too.

14
00:00:40,266 --> 00:00:42,033
Finally, the end of Bret Hart.

15
00:00:42,100 --> 00:00:44,633
[Vince] What a weekend
in the World Wrestling Entertainment.

16
00:00:44,699 --> 00:00:46,633
[Lawler] Late night Saturday night
will never be the same.

17
00:00:46,699 --> 00:00:48,633
[Vince]
Hey, New York City will never be the same.

18
00:00:48,699 --> 00:00:51,500
The premiere of Shotgun Saturday Night

19
00:00:51,566 --> 00:00:55,033
saw Ahmed Johnson take
the Nation of Domination to the streets.

20
00:00:55,099 --> 00:00:57,633
[Lawler] Yeah.
And everyone got to see a side of Marlena

21
00:00:57,699 --> 00:00:59,233
we thought we'd never see.

22
00:00:59,300 --> 00:01:01,866
-Wow.
-[Vince] Exposed.

23
00:01:01,933 --> 00:01:04,200
All of that and a whole lot more tonight

24
00:01:04,266 --> 00:01:08,133
on Monday Night Raw.

25
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,600
[upbeat music playing]

26
00:01:26,366 --> 00:01:28,766
[Vince] Hello, everyone,
and welcome to Monday Night Raw.

27
00:01:28,833 --> 00:01:31,566
Vince McMahon here
along with Jerry "The King" Lawler.

28
00:01:31,633 --> 00:01:33,133
Happy new year to everyone.

29
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,733
And the man in the ring at the moment,
The King of Harts,

30
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,699
the self-professed
Slammy Award-winning Owen Hart

31
00:01:38,766 --> 00:01:40,733
ready to lock up with Mankind.

32
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,433
[Lawler] Yeah.
You know, that whole Hart clan,

33
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:45,166
the whole brood is nothing
but a bad seed competition.

34
00:01:45,233 --> 00:01:46,600
Owen Hart, take a look at him.

35
00:01:46,666 --> 00:01:48,933
He's the only good one
out of the whole bunch.

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,800
[Vince]
Owen Hart ready to lock up with Mankind

37
00:01:51,866 --> 00:01:54,899
in somewhat of a tough guy matchup indeed.

38
00:01:54,966 --> 00:01:57,466
Clarence Mason representing Owen Hart,

39
00:01:57,533 --> 00:01:59,333
representing The British Bulldog,

40
00:01:59,399 --> 00:02:02,233
representing, of course,
the entire Nation of Domination.

41
00:02:03,133 --> 00:02:05,033
However, at this moment,

42
00:02:05,100 --> 00:02:07,566
here comes
one of the more unique personnel

43
00:02:07,633 --> 00:02:10,166
at least I think you can say
in the World Wrestling Entertainment.

44
00:02:10,233 --> 00:02:14,033
[Chimel] His opponent accompanied
down the aisle by Paul Bearer,

45
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:17,566
weighing 287 pounds,

46
00:02:17,633 --> 00:02:20,033
Mankind.

47
00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:22,233
[Vince] Mankind against Owen Hart,

48
00:02:22,299 --> 00:02:25,866
starting things off for us tonight
on Monday Night Raw,

49
00:02:25,933 --> 00:02:28,400
notwithstanding a matchup
we're gonna be seeing later on

50
00:02:28,466 --> 00:02:31,500
with Bret Hart against
"The Man They Call" Vader.

51
00:02:31,566 --> 00:02:35,266
A very special interview with Sycho Sid

52
00:02:35,333 --> 00:02:39,000
and we are told to expect an apology

53
00:02:39,066 --> 00:02:40,400
from Sycho Sid.

54
00:02:41,333 --> 00:02:44,133
[Lawler] Well, I think
that will be the day, McMahon,

55
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,566
why should he apologize
for what he did to old José Lothario?

56
00:02:47,633 --> 00:02:49,266
[Vince] Time will tell
and of course by the way,

57
00:02:49,333 --> 00:02:52,100
joining us for commentary again,

58
00:02:52,166 --> 00:02:55,133
on a tentative basis at least,
would be Shawn Michaels

59
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,700
-who is allegedly…
-[Lawler] Oh, come on.

60
00:02:56,766 --> 00:02:59,766
[Vince] …going to join us
during the Bret Hart-Vader matchup.

61
00:02:59,833 --> 00:03:02,966
[Lawler] Shawn Michaels is gonna
come out here and sit beside me again?

62
00:03:03,033 --> 00:03:04,299
[Vince]
Well, I don't know about that.

63
00:03:04,366 --> 00:03:05,366
He's not gonna sit beside me.

64
00:03:05,433 --> 00:03:06,433
[Lawler] Well, I'm going
to tell you something, McMahon,

65
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:07,866
he's about pushed me to my limit.

66
00:03:07,933 --> 00:03:09,299
-[Vince] Is that right?
-[Lawler] Yes.

67
00:03:09,366 --> 00:03:11,533
[Vince] Just as you were pushed
last week with Goldust, right?

68
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,333
-[Lawler] Oh, you're not kidding.
-[Vince] Uh-huh.

69
00:03:13,399 --> 00:03:14,433
[Lawler] Oh.

70
00:03:15,166 --> 00:03:16,333
Come on, Owen.

71
00:03:16,399 --> 00:03:19,266
[Vince] Owen Hart,
co-holder of the tag team championship

72
00:03:19,333 --> 00:03:21,666
along with his brother-in-law,
The British Bulldog.

73
00:03:21,733 --> 00:03:24,399
And here we go belly-to-belly,
nicely executed.

74
00:03:24,466 --> 00:03:27,333
Owen Hart, a technician,
much like his brother, Bret Hart.

75
00:03:27,399 --> 00:03:29,700
-And look at Owen go to work on Mankind.
-[Lawler] Yeah.

76
00:03:29,766 --> 00:03:31,466
He can also slug it out, McMahon.

77
00:03:31,533 --> 00:03:33,433
[Vince]
Yes, he can mix it up most in any fashion.

78
00:03:33,500 --> 00:03:34,899
[Lawler] Hey. This may be over quick.

79
00:03:34,966 --> 00:03:37,933
[Vince] And no.
Heading to the rope, Mankind.

80
00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:40,000
[Lawler] What's that smell?

81
00:03:40,066 --> 00:03:41,133
[Vince] Smell?

82
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,600
[Lawler] I think Mankind is wearing
that Michael Jordan cologne.

83
00:03:43,666 --> 00:03:45,733
[Vince laughs]
No, I think that's formaldehyde.

84
00:03:45,799 --> 00:03:47,166
I don't know what that is.

85
00:03:47,233 --> 00:03:48,466
Any time Paul Bearer is out here,

86
00:03:48,533 --> 00:03:50,833
-there is somewhat of a unique odor.
-[Lawler] Oh.

87
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,233
[Vince] Owen Hart
trying to untangle Mankind.

88
00:03:54,299 --> 00:03:55,966
Expect in this matchup

89
00:03:56,033 --> 00:03:59,566
the official to allow
a little more latitude in the rules.

90
00:03:59,633 --> 00:04:01,166
Oh, or lack of rules.

91
00:04:01,733 --> 00:04:03,600
Mankind and Owen Hart.

92
00:04:03,666 --> 00:04:06,166
[Lawler] Well, that's what these tough man
competitions are all about.

93
00:04:06,233 --> 00:04:07,966
Let's see who's the toughest.
Let's get it on.

94
00:04:08,033 --> 00:04:09,666
Throw the rulebook out the window.

95
00:04:10,533 --> 00:04:11,966
[Vince] All right.
Owen Hart now set up

96
00:04:12,033 --> 00:04:14,100
and to the buckle nicely executed.

97
00:04:14,166 --> 00:04:16,599
And down to canvas.
Here comes-- Oh.

98
00:04:16,666 --> 00:04:19,800
Mankind driving a knee
right into the head of Owen Hart.

99
00:04:20,533 --> 00:04:23,333
[Lawler] Neither one of these guys are out
to win any popularity contest, McMahon.

100
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,400
They're just out here
to prove how tough they are.

101
00:04:25,466 --> 00:04:27,533
-Ouch.
-[Vince] And, yes.

102
00:04:27,599 --> 00:04:29,566
Or how disfigured one can become.

103
00:04:30,633 --> 00:04:34,500
By the way, ladies and gentlemen,
there's speculation as to a rift

104
00:04:34,566 --> 00:04:36,500
developing between Owen Hart

105
00:04:36,566 --> 00:04:38,466
and his brother-in-law.

106
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,500
Both members, of course,
the tag team titleholders.

107
00:04:41,566 --> 00:04:43,166
Both co-holders
of the tag team championship.

108
00:04:43,233 --> 00:04:44,233
Oh, my goodness.

109
00:04:44,300 --> 00:04:46,466
But it's gonna be every man for himself

110
00:04:46,533 --> 00:04:49,000
in the upcoming WWE Royal Rumble.

111
00:04:49,066 --> 00:04:52,966
If it winds up with Owen Hart in there
against The British Bulldog,

112
00:04:53,033 --> 00:04:54,733
look for them to really go at it.

113
00:04:56,333 --> 00:04:57,566
-Oh.
-[Lawler] Oh.

114
00:04:59,033 --> 00:05:01,166
I think Owen thought
he had Mankind where he wanted him

115
00:05:01,233 --> 00:05:03,066
but now, he's not where he wants to be.

116
00:05:03,133 --> 00:05:05,066
[Vince] Action tonight
in the tough man contest.

117
00:05:05,133 --> 00:05:07,599
Still to come, however,
Bret, "The Hitman" Hart

118
00:05:07,666 --> 00:05:10,333
goes one-on-one
with "The Man They Call" Vader.

119
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,200
What a real donnybrook
that's gonna be right here tonight.

120
00:05:14,266 --> 00:05:15,266
[Lawler] Hey, look at this.

121
00:05:15,333 --> 00:05:17,500
Owen's biting off that Mandible Claw.

122
00:05:17,566 --> 00:05:21,000
[Vince] And Sycho Sid, of course,
in the building to be interviewed.

123
00:05:21,066 --> 00:05:25,200
And for that matter, Shawn Michaels
also watching what's going on.

124
00:05:25,266 --> 00:05:27,266
And oh, right down on the fingers.

125
00:05:28,033 --> 00:05:32,500
Owen Hart and Mankind going at it.
Talk about-- Oh, what a clip to the jaw.

126
00:05:32,566 --> 00:05:34,000
Talk about physicality.

127
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:38,733
Headbutt there by Mankind.
Let's see what he can do to follow up.

128
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,599
-Here he goes.
-[Lawler] Look out.

129
00:05:40,666 --> 00:05:41,733
Whoa.

130
00:05:42,466 --> 00:05:45,233
Look out.
Mankind and Owen right on the floor.

131
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,500
[Vince]
Owen Hart and Mankind having a go here,

132
00:05:48,566 --> 00:05:50,266
kicking things off on Raw. And look out.

133
00:05:50,333 --> 00:05:51,833
Who knows what's gonna happen?

134
00:05:52,366 --> 00:05:54,133
Wait a minute. Owen has the Slammy.

135
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,933
Mankind has a chair.
And wait a minute. Don't--

136
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,766
Oh, right in the rib.

137
00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:02,533
The Slammy Award-winning Owen Hart.

138
00:06:03,133 --> 00:06:05,200
Watch out.
What's he gonna do to Mankind now?

139
00:06:05,266 --> 00:06:06,533
He straddles him.

140
00:06:06,599 --> 00:06:09,599
[crowd cheering]

141
00:06:11,066 --> 00:06:14,033
[Vince] Owen Hart
with the tag team championship belt.

142
00:06:15,099 --> 00:06:17,500
The official trying to maintain
some order in this thing.

143
00:06:17,566 --> 00:06:18,533
-And look out.
-[Lawler] No.

144
00:06:18,599 --> 00:06:20,000
-[Vince] Oh.
-[Lawler] Wow.

145
00:06:20,799 --> 00:06:23,333
[Vince] There's no telling
what's gonna happen in this matchup.

146
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,433
No telling what's gonna happen
out here tonight on Raw.

147
00:06:25,500 --> 00:06:27,500
Ladies and gentlemen,
all the explosive elements

148
00:06:27,566 --> 00:06:29,400
ready to erupt indeed.

149
00:06:29,466 --> 00:06:33,000
We mentioned that that Shawn Michaels
was here and we can confirm yes,

150
00:06:33,066 --> 00:06:35,833
no doubt, Shawn Michaels
will be doing color commentary

151
00:06:35,900 --> 00:06:37,500
during the Bret-Vader matchup.

152
00:06:37,566 --> 00:06:40,866
And obviously no love lost whatsoever
between Shawn and The Hitman.

153
00:06:40,933 --> 00:06:46,000
And by the way, José Lothario
also here with Shawn Michaels.

154
00:06:46,833 --> 00:06:49,200
Kick to the chest area there by Owen Hart.

155
00:06:49,266 --> 00:06:51,500
[Lawler] I hope José
is not gonna come out here, is he?

156
00:06:51,566 --> 00:06:52,599
[Vince] I sincerely Hope so.

157
00:06:52,666 --> 00:06:54,099
-Why wouldn't you?
-[Lawler] Are all his veins

158
00:06:54,166 --> 00:06:55,599
still clogged with those refried beans

159
00:06:55,666 --> 00:06:57,266
-and tacos and…
-[Vince] All right. Come on now.

160
00:06:57,333 --> 00:06:58,366
[Lawler] …enchiladas?

161
00:06:58,433 --> 00:06:59,900
I heard they took an x-ray of his heart

162
00:06:59,966 --> 00:07:02,466
and there was a big
jalapeño blocking his aorta.

163
00:07:03,433 --> 00:07:04,633
[Vince]
All right. Coming off the rope

164
00:07:04,700 --> 00:07:06,733
and a headbutt there by Owen Hart.

165
00:07:06,799 --> 00:07:09,533
-Owen Hart and Mankind will see-- Oh.
-[Lawler] No.

166
00:07:09,599 --> 00:07:12,500
[Vince]
Will see action, both individuals will--

167
00:07:12,566 --> 00:07:15,566
In the Royal Rumble match as well,

168
00:07:15,633 --> 00:07:18,033
notwithstanding
this individual encounter tonight.

169
00:07:18,099 --> 00:07:19,666
Every man for himself.

170
00:07:21,466 --> 00:07:22,733
No friends whatsoever,

171
00:07:22,799 --> 00:07:25,133
-only bitter enemies. As we take…
-[Lawler] Hey, look. Take a look.

172
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,266
[Vince] Yes.

173
00:07:26,333 --> 00:07:29,400
Double feature action by Owen Hart.

174
00:07:31,633 --> 00:07:33,366
And you have to think that,

175
00:07:33,433 --> 00:07:35,599
notwithstanding the fact
of Owen Hart's presence

176
00:07:35,666 --> 00:07:37,066
in the Royal Rumble match

177
00:07:37,133 --> 00:07:40,433
as well as that of Mankind
and many other WWE superstars,

178
00:07:40,500 --> 00:07:44,533
"The Hitman" Bret Hart
likewise will be in the Royal Rumble.

179
00:07:44,599 --> 00:07:46,733
And I would suggest
that he's a marked man.

180
00:07:46,799 --> 00:07:48,400
[Lawler] You're right. He's a marked man.

181
00:07:48,466 --> 00:07:50,533
I've heard
just through the grapevine, McMahon,

182
00:07:50,599 --> 00:07:53,200
that every one of the other participants
in the Royal Rumble

183
00:07:53,266 --> 00:07:55,133
are gonna go ahead-- And you say,

184
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:56,799
there's no friends, every man for himself,

185
00:07:56,866 --> 00:07:58,866
but I've heard
there's sort of a conspiracy.

186
00:07:58,933 --> 00:08:00,933
They're gonna target
Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

187
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,766
Everybody is gonna go after him
at the opening bell

188
00:08:02,833 --> 00:08:04,033
and that's it, he'll be out of there.

189
00:08:04,099 --> 00:08:05,633
-[Vince] Throw him over the top…
-[Lawler] Yes.

190
00:08:05,700 --> 00:08:06,766
[Vince] …and it will be history.

191
00:08:06,833 --> 00:08:09,666
[Vince] And why not?
Bret unquestionably one of the favorites,

192
00:08:09,733 --> 00:08:11,733
if you can say anyone is a favorite.

193
00:08:14,933 --> 00:08:17,033
-[Lawler] Whoa.
-[Vince] Over the hip, nicely done.

194
00:08:17,099 --> 00:08:19,299
By the way, the winner
of that Royal Rumble match, of course,

195
00:08:19,366 --> 00:08:21,799
gets the automatic title shot
at WrestleMania

196
00:08:21,866 --> 00:08:23,866
-with whoever the champion is.
-[Lawler] Uh-oh. Watch this.

197
00:08:23,933 --> 00:08:25,766
[Vince] Whoa.
And the back of the head.

198
00:08:25,833 --> 00:08:26,900
[Lawler] I knew that was coming.

199
00:08:26,966 --> 00:08:30,533
[Vince] And Mankind
knocked for a little on the outside.

200
00:08:30,599 --> 00:08:35,333
Owen Hart, a tremendous competitor
as well as Mankind having a go here

201
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,233
on Monday Night Raw
right out in front of-- Oh.

202
00:08:39,233 --> 00:08:42,433
Oh. And if Owen Hart
had been just a foot or a half over,

203
00:08:42,500 --> 00:08:44,266
he would have been
right on your lap there, King.

204
00:08:44,333 --> 00:08:47,133
-Too bad that didn't happen.
-[Lawler] What? What do you mean too bad?

205
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:48,933
[Vince] Mankind and Owen Hart,

206
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,699
you can bet they don't care
whether it's inside--

207
00:08:50,766 --> 00:08:52,966
Oh, wait a minute,
or outside, it doesn't matter to--

208
00:08:53,033 --> 00:08:54,666
Oh, no.

209
00:08:54,733 --> 00:08:57,066
[crowd cheering]

210
00:08:57,966 --> 00:09:01,100
[Vince] And imagine the stars

211
00:09:01,166 --> 00:09:03,800
that Owen Hart is seeing in his head
at the moment.

212
00:09:03,866 --> 00:09:06,133
Owen Hart and Mankind mixing it up.

213
00:09:06,199 --> 00:09:07,933
Uh-oh. To the rail.

214
00:09:10,333 --> 00:09:11,566
Stay with us, ladies and gentlemen,

215
00:09:11,633 --> 00:09:13,533
this matchup will continue as well

216
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,466
as Bret Hart
versus "The Man They Call" Vader.

217
00:09:17,500 --> 00:09:20,199
All right, kid.
Let's see what you got.

218
00:09:20,766 --> 00:09:23,533
[narrator] WWE Full Metal: The Album,

219
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,699
the entrance themes
of your favorite WWE superstars.

220
00:09:26,766 --> 00:09:28,600
This tune, it makes me wanna match.

221
00:09:28,666 --> 00:09:30,233
[laughs]

222
00:09:30,300 --> 00:09:32,100
[narrator] Full metal: The album.

223
00:09:32,666 --> 00:09:34,133
[Vince]
We're back with more WWE action

224
00:09:34,199 --> 00:09:35,533
on Monday Night Raw.

225
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,433
Owen Hart and Mankind going at it.

226
00:09:39,199 --> 00:09:40,866
And before the break, this is what we saw,

227
00:09:40,933 --> 00:09:41,933
watch this from Owen Hart.

228
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,699
Right on the back of the head.

229
00:09:43,766 --> 00:09:45,833
And returning the favor right after that,

230
00:09:45,900 --> 00:09:48,833
Mankind blast Owen Hart, watch this.

231
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:49,900
[Lawler] Whoa.

232
00:09:49,966 --> 00:09:51,466
[Vince]
All of that just prior to the break.

233
00:09:51,533 --> 00:09:54,333
[Lawler] Owen looked like Deion Sanders
in the Dallas game yesterday.

234
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,766
[Vince laughs]

235
00:09:55,833 --> 00:09:58,266
Off the rope and-- Uh-oh. And look out.

236
00:09:58,333 --> 00:09:59,966
-[Lawler] Oh. Reversal.
-[Vince] Hey.

237
00:10:00,033 --> 00:10:02,466
-[Lawler] DDT.
-[Vince] Nicely done by Owen Hart.

238
00:10:02,533 --> 00:10:06,166
By the way, we can confirm that
Shawn Michaels is in fact standing by.

239
00:10:06,233 --> 00:10:10,300
But we will go to Shawn Michaels
upon the conclusion of this matchup.

240
00:10:11,133 --> 00:10:12,133
Owen Hart going to the top,

241
00:10:12,199 --> 00:10:13,566
we take a look at that double feature

242
00:10:13,633 --> 00:10:14,933
-and here it is.
-[Lawler] Reversal.

243
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,533
[Vince] Oh, wow, nice DDT.

244
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,300
-From the top. Uh-oh.
-[Lawler] Oh, no.

245
00:10:18,366 --> 00:10:20,633
[Vince] Oh, there you go,
Mandible Claw, this one's over.

246
00:10:20,699 --> 00:10:22,866
-[Lawler] He got it out.
-[Vince] Oh. No, it's not.

247
00:10:22,933 --> 00:10:25,366
What a brilliant maneuver
on the part of Owen Hart.

248
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,666
Owen Hart and Mankind
going at it tooth and nail.

249
00:10:28,733 --> 00:10:31,233
-They will compete…
-[Lawler] Look out, oh.

250
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:34,100
[Vince] …of course, once again,
along with 28 other competitors,

251
00:10:34,166 --> 00:10:35,833
there'll be 30 men in the upcoming

252
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:37,800
-WWE Royal Rumble match.
-[Lawler] Oh, piledriver.

253
00:10:37,866 --> 00:10:39,533
[Vince] Oh, that could do it.

254
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,333
That could do it for Owen Hart and…

255
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:42,900
-[Lawler] No.
-[Vince] …it does.

256
00:10:42,966 --> 00:10:44,933
-[bell dings]
-[Lawler] Unbelievable.

257
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,400
[Vince] Hey, I'm impressed.

258
00:10:46,466 --> 00:10:47,699
What a matchup.

259
00:10:47,766 --> 00:10:51,266
And I guess
maybe Paul Bearer's impressed as well.

260
00:10:51,933 --> 00:10:53,500
Owen Hart and Mankind

261
00:10:53,566 --> 00:10:55,633
kicking things off here tonight

262
00:10:55,699 --> 00:10:58,633
on WWE Monday Night Raw.

263
00:11:00,066 --> 00:11:02,066
[Lawler] Boy, I'm telling you,
I couldn't believe it.

264
00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:05,733
[Vince] Let's go back
and take another look at this replay.

265
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,133
-Take it, King.
-[Lawler] Okay.

266
00:11:07,199 --> 00:11:10,400
Owen Hart was shoved
right into that metal post, his shoulder.

267
00:11:10,466 --> 00:11:12,266
It's a miracle it's not broken.

268
00:11:12,333 --> 00:11:16,900
But then what capped it off
was the piledriver from Mankind.

269
00:11:16,966 --> 00:11:18,633
Mankind wins the tough man competition.

270
00:11:18,699 --> 00:11:20,066
[Vince]
All right. Standing by right now

271
00:11:20,133 --> 00:11:22,100
in Shawn Michaels's locker room,
ladies and gentlemen,

272
00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:25,300
José Lothario and I believe
that's José's son, Pete, there.

273
00:11:25,366 --> 00:11:26,433
And before we come to you, Shawn,

274
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:28,566
José, first of all,
how are you doing physically?

275
00:11:29,233 --> 00:11:31,066
I'm doing much better, Vince.

276
00:11:31,133 --> 00:11:33,633
I'd like to say thank you, everybody,
for the cards.

277
00:11:33,699 --> 00:11:35,766
And I just want to say one thing,

278
00:11:35,833 --> 00:11:39,366
I'm determined to stay
in the corner in 19 at the Alamodome

279
00:11:39,433 --> 00:11:40,433
with Shawn Michaels.

280
00:11:40,500 --> 00:11:41,733
And I guarantee you one thing,

281
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,833
he's gonna do his best
and he's gonna take the title back.

282
00:11:43,900 --> 00:11:45,900
[Vince] And right there
by your side, your son, Pete.

283
00:11:45,966 --> 00:11:49,000
And, Pete, I guess you've taken care
of your dad pretty well these days.

284
00:11:49,066 --> 00:11:50,400
Yes, Sir Vince.

285
00:11:50,466 --> 00:11:53,033
I've been assisting my father
in every way possible.

286
00:11:53,766 --> 00:11:56,966
What Sycho Sid did to my father
scared us all very much.

287
00:11:57,033 --> 00:11:58,433
In Texas, we don't play that game.

288
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:01,933
And if I need to be of any assistance
at him at Royal Rumble, I will.

289
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,133
[Lawler] That's a threat, McMahon.

290
00:12:03,199 --> 00:12:05,333
You're darn right it is, King.
It's a threat.

291
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,699
You've upset
the whole Lothario family, Sid,

292
00:12:07,766 --> 00:12:08,966
and you've upset me.

293
00:12:09,033 --> 00:12:10,699
You can use the camera in Survivor Series,

294
00:12:10,766 --> 00:12:12,466
camera, billy club,
and even the kitchen sink

295
00:12:12,533 --> 00:12:13,933
won't work at the rumble.

296
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,300
And you know something, Sid,
I understand you got an interview later.

297
00:12:16,366 --> 00:12:17,833
I can't wait to hear what you have to say,

298
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:20,066
because, well, obvious,
I'll be right here.

299
00:12:20,133 --> 00:12:23,066
[Vince] And we understand that,
Michaels, you are considering joining us

300
00:12:23,133 --> 00:12:25,533
for a color commentary
during the Bret Hart-Vader match.

301
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,533
Oh, I wouldn't miss that
for anything in the world.

302
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,266
I'm gonna be right there
right next to you, Vin man, watch it.

303
00:12:30,333 --> 00:12:31,733
[Vince]
You're not gonna interfere, though,

304
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,166
-are you?
-No. Me?

305
00:12:33,233 --> 00:12:35,466
I gave my word once before,
I'm give you my word now,

306
00:12:35,533 --> 00:12:38,133
I wouldn't dare
interfere in a Bret Hart match.

307
00:12:38,199 --> 00:12:39,533
[Vince] Thank you very much,

308
00:12:39,599 --> 00:12:41,000
Shawn Michaels and company.

309
00:12:41,633 --> 00:12:43,433
All right. Ladies and gentlemen,
let's take you back now

310
00:12:43,500 --> 00:12:45,099
-to Shotgun Saturday Night.
-[Lawler] Oh, yeah.

311
00:12:45,166 --> 00:12:47,233
[Vince] The premiere
late night last Saturday night.

312
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:51,333
Yes, indeed, the Nation of Domination
very prominent, with Crush

313
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,833
ready to soften up one Ahmed Johnson

314
00:12:53,900 --> 00:12:57,099
prior to Faarooq's matchup
at the Royal Rumble.

315
00:12:57,166 --> 00:12:59,666
However, it was Ahmed softening up Crush

316
00:12:59,733 --> 00:13:02,933
until the Nation of Domination
got involved.

317
00:13:03,666 --> 00:13:07,099
And they really went to work
on one Ahmed Johnson.

318
00:13:07,166 --> 00:13:10,400
Oh, after the spinebuster,
look what happens.

319
00:13:10,466 --> 00:13:13,733
[Lawler] Yeah, Shotgun Saturday Night
is a real hit, McMahon.

320
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,333
[Vince] And then continuing
all the way through the outside

321
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,133
on 56th Street, look at this,

322
00:13:18,199 --> 00:13:20,833
Ahmed just wearing one
of the Nation of Domination members out,

323
00:13:20,900 --> 00:13:23,966
oh, on top of a parked car.

324
00:13:24,033 --> 00:13:25,866
[Lawler] Hey, even Sally Field turned out.

325
00:13:25,933 --> 00:13:29,166
[Vince] Well, not exactly,
it was Mother Smucker and Sister Angelica,

326
00:13:29,233 --> 00:13:32,833
The Flying Nuns, making their debut
in a first ever mixed match.

327
00:13:32,900 --> 00:13:35,166
Well, that certainly
wasn't a midnight mass.

328
00:13:35,233 --> 00:13:37,900
No. The nuns going to work
on the Godwinn family.

329
00:13:37,966 --> 00:13:42,266
And who shows up to manage
The Flying Nuns, but Brother Love.

330
00:13:42,966 --> 00:13:43,966
[Lawler] Wow.

331
00:13:44,033 --> 00:13:45,699
nun-theless, McMahon,

332
00:13:45,766 --> 00:13:48,633
it's first communion
for the Godwinn family.

333
00:13:48,699 --> 00:13:50,833
Mother Smucker,

334
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:52,666
Sister Angelica,

335
00:13:52,733 --> 00:13:57,500
behold the Sisters of Love.

336
00:13:58,733 --> 00:14:01,566
[Vince]
Unbelievable, the Sisters of Love.

337
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,133
It wasn't exactly the Saints Marching In
last Saturday night.

338
00:14:06,199 --> 00:14:10,266
We're told that the nuns, if you would,
The Flying Nuns or for that matter,

339
00:14:10,333 --> 00:14:12,699
call them the Sisters of Love
are scheduled to join us again

340
00:14:12,766 --> 00:14:15,033
this Saturday night on Shotgun Saturday.

341
00:14:15,099 --> 00:14:18,099
But tonight, Monday Night Raw
is brought to you by the US Army.

342
00:14:18,166 --> 00:14:21,699
Look for the Army hyperlink
on the WWE AOL site

343
00:14:21,766 --> 00:14:26,400
in the TV zone section to find out
where you can be all you can be.

344
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:30,933
And this man can be
just about all he wants to be.

345
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,533
[Lawler] Hey, look,
it's the Neil O'Donnell.

346
00:14:32,599 --> 00:14:34,099
-[Vince] What?
-[Lawler] What's he doing here?

347
00:14:34,166 --> 00:14:36,400
-[Vince] Neil O'Donnell?
-[Lawler] From the Jets.

348
00:14:36,933 --> 00:14:39,166
[Vince]
Notwithstanding your presence, King,

349
00:14:39,233 --> 00:14:41,766
we're talking about The Honky Tonk Man.

350
00:14:41,833 --> 00:14:44,133
You forgot to say
the greatest of all time,

351
00:14:44,199 --> 00:14:45,199
The Honkey Tonk Man.

352
00:14:45,266 --> 00:14:46,900
I wish you would always use that.

353
00:14:46,966 --> 00:14:48,466
The greatest Intercontinental Champion

354
00:14:48,533 --> 00:14:49,933
-of all time.
-Of all time.

355
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,066
And The Honky Tonk Man out here
to get a good long look

356
00:14:52,133 --> 00:14:55,133
at maybe Big Daddy Cool Diesel or…

357
00:14:55,866 --> 00:14:57,333
[Honky Tonk Man] Whoever it might be.

358
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,866
I still haven't made my decision
on that one individual

359
00:15:00,933 --> 00:15:02,500
that I'm gonna take under my wing

360
00:15:02,566 --> 00:15:05,166
and maybe clone
to be the next Honky Tonk Man.

361
00:15:05,233 --> 00:15:06,766
[Vince]
I just don't know who you're gonna find

362
00:15:06,833 --> 00:15:07,833
to live up to your standards.

363
00:15:07,900 --> 00:15:09,733
Let me get this straight,
you're trying to find someone

364
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,800
who can sing, who can dance,
who can shake, rattle, and roll.

365
00:15:13,866 --> 00:15:16,166
And play the guitar,
that's very important.

366
00:15:16,233 --> 00:15:18,699
-I see.
-But the main thing is they have--

367
00:15:18,766 --> 00:15:20,566
they have to have the strong desire,

368
00:15:20,633 --> 00:15:22,633
they have to be a dedicated individual

369
00:15:22,699 --> 00:15:25,233
that only the World Wrestling
Entertainment has to offer.

370
00:15:26,099 --> 00:15:27,933
[Vince] All right.
Here we go, ladies and gentlemen.

371
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,599
Here they come, undefeated thus far
in the World Wrestling Entertainment,

372
00:15:31,666 --> 00:15:33,800
Doug Furnas and Philip Lafon

373
00:15:34,366 --> 00:15:36,966
scheduled to lock up
with "The Bad Guy" Razor Ramon

374
00:15:37,033 --> 00:15:38,900
and Big Daddy Cool Diesel.

375
00:15:38,966 --> 00:15:41,566
[Lawler] Yeah, Doug Furnas,
nice hair, where's your rubber nose?

376
00:15:41,633 --> 00:15:43,000
[Vince laughs]

377
00:15:43,066 --> 00:15:46,199
You can make fun of him
all you want to from down here, King.

378
00:15:46,266 --> 00:15:50,400
But I would suggest
that you won't find a better tag team

379
00:15:50,466 --> 00:15:52,366
in all of the World Wrestling
Entertainment.

380
00:15:52,433 --> 00:15:56,500
And they could very well be
one of the greatest teams in history.

381
00:15:56,566 --> 00:15:58,533
[Lawler] Yeah.
What about the Sisters of Love, huh?

382
00:15:58,599 --> 00:16:00,266
[Vince] Well, as a matter of fact,

383
00:16:00,333 --> 00:16:02,733
Furnas and Lafon will be
meeting the Sisters of Love,

384
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,866
The Flying Nuns, this Saturday night.

385
00:16:04,933 --> 00:16:07,433
And I think it's gonna be again
the nuns who are doing most of the flying.

386
00:16:07,500 --> 00:16:09,500
[Lawler] Those nuns have
terrible habits, McMahon.

387
00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:11,800
[Vince clears throat] Right.

388
00:16:12,033 --> 00:16:13,666
-[Lawler laughs]
-[Vince] Pray tell what's gonna

389
00:16:13,733 --> 00:16:15,433
-happen this Saturday, right, King?
-[Lawler] What?

390
00:16:15,500 --> 00:16:17,633
[Vince] Yeah. [laughs] All right.

391
00:16:17,699 --> 00:16:21,233
"Big Daddy Cool" Diesel in there
against Philip Lafon at the moment.

392
00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:22,300
Oh,

393
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,400
and Diesel obviously means business.

394
00:16:26,266 --> 00:16:29,066
[Lawler] Yeah, right now,
Lafon and Furnas better pray

395
00:16:29,133 --> 00:16:31,099
that they don't tick Diesel and Razor off.

396
00:16:31,766 --> 00:16:33,566
-[Vince] And look at this.
-[Lawler] Whoa.

397
00:16:33,633 --> 00:16:35,766
[Vince] Unbelievable power
as we become accustomed

398
00:16:35,833 --> 00:16:37,566
-to seeing from time to time.
-[Lawler] Look out.

399
00:16:37,633 --> 00:16:40,166
[Vince] Uh-oh,
from "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel.

400
00:16:40,233 --> 00:16:41,500
[Lawler] A little roadblock there.

401
00:16:41,566 --> 00:16:42,566
[laughs]

402
00:16:43,233 --> 00:16:45,833
[Vince] Furnas
and Lafon against Razor Ramon

403
00:16:45,900 --> 00:16:47,699
and "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel.

404
00:16:48,733 --> 00:16:52,933
Honky Tonk Man out here getting a good
look at all of this tag team action.

405
00:16:54,666 --> 00:16:56,833
-[Lawler] Come on, Razor.
-[Honky Tonk Man] You know, I was asked,

406
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:58,266
Vince, was The Honky Tonk Man--

407
00:16:58,333 --> 00:16:59,900
Am I looking for a tag team?

408
00:16:59,966 --> 00:17:01,833
Why am I watching this match?

409
00:17:01,900 --> 00:17:04,166
And I can say
I'm looking for an individual.

410
00:17:04,233 --> 00:17:06,000
It doesn't matter if they're tag team,
maybe I'll…

411
00:17:06,066 --> 00:17:07,333
-[Vince] Oh.
-[Lawler] Oh.

412
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,066
[Vince] It doesn't matter
because you don't mind

413
00:17:10,133 --> 00:17:11,666
splitting up a tag team if necessary.

414
00:17:11,733 --> 00:17:12,766
It doesn't matter to me at all.

415
00:17:12,833 --> 00:17:14,133
-I'm looking for…
-[Vince] Whoa.

416
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,800
…that one individual,
somebody like a Razor Ramon,

417
00:17:16,866 --> 00:17:18,899
somebody that's got that greasy kid look.

418
00:17:18,966 --> 00:17:20,399
[Lawler] Yeah,
take a look at Razor's hair.

419
00:17:20,466 --> 00:17:21,633
It's almost like yours, Honky.

420
00:17:21,700 --> 00:17:23,099
Well, it's a little dab, do you, King?

421
00:17:23,166 --> 00:17:25,066
You know. you could use
a little bit of that yourself.

422
00:17:25,766 --> 00:17:28,233
[Vince] Well, it's kind of tough
though to do anything with that hair

423
00:17:28,300 --> 00:17:31,066
when you have to crown it all the time.
Do you wear that crown all the time?

424
00:17:31,133 --> 00:17:32,399
-I mean--
-[Lawler] Of course, McMahon.

425
00:17:32,466 --> 00:17:34,066
[Vince] You wear it out
Sunday afternoon and you--

426
00:17:34,133 --> 00:17:35,633
[Lawler] Do you wear
that toupee all the time?

427
00:17:35,700 --> 00:17:37,333
[Vince] Of course.
Not this when I have a number--

428
00:17:37,399 --> 00:17:38,500
Never mind.

429
00:17:38,566 --> 00:17:42,000
In control at the moment as we speak,
Philip Lafon.

430
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,433
Lafon and Furnas will show you--
Two, almost a count of three--

431
00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:49,333
Moves that many of us
have never seen before.

432
00:17:49,399 --> 00:17:50,399
Whoa.

433
00:17:50,866 --> 00:17:52,600
What great technicians they are.

434
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:56,433
"Big Daddy Cool" Diesel and Razor Ramon
under normal circumstances

435
00:17:56,500 --> 00:18:00,566
will rely on their course brute strength,
their power and bad attitudes.

436
00:18:00,633 --> 00:18:03,066
[Lawler] You know, we're talking
about the Intercontinental Champions.

437
00:18:03,133 --> 00:18:05,166
Did you hear Harry Helmsley
died over the weekend?

438
00:18:05,533 --> 00:18:06,933
[Vince] Matter of fact, yes.

439
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,233
[Lawler] I talked to Hunter,
he didn't even care, not even upset.

440
00:18:09,300 --> 00:18:11,833
As a matter of fact,
he's expecting a big windfall now.

441
00:18:11,899 --> 00:18:12,899
[Vince] Inheritance?

442
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,833
-[Lawler] Windfall.
-[Vince] Windfall, I see.

443
00:18:17,666 --> 00:18:19,266
[referee] Come on. Let's go.

444
00:18:19,333 --> 00:18:21,633
[Vince] Razor--
Oh, with a hard right hand.

445
00:18:25,166 --> 00:18:27,733
Razor Ramon in control.

446
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,733
I wonder what's gonna happen
to that Bret Hart-Vader matchup

447
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:31,899
a little bit later on.

448
00:18:31,966 --> 00:18:34,700
[Lawler] Oh, I'll tell you,
I hope Bret Hart gets his.

449
00:18:35,500 --> 00:18:36,933
[Vince] Bret "The Hitman" Hart,

450
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,266
one-on-one with the man they call--
Oh, what a shot that was.

451
00:18:40,899 --> 00:18:42,266
A man they call Vader.

452
00:18:42,333 --> 00:18:46,766
Who's gonna win that matchup with Bret
and Vader here tonight on Raw?

453
00:18:46,833 --> 00:18:48,766
[Honky Tonk Man] Well, I'm not
the one to make predictions

454
00:18:48,833 --> 00:18:52,700
but if I was a betting man,
I would probably have to bet on Vader.

455
00:18:52,766 --> 00:18:56,266
[Vince] Look, now, of course,
bearing in mind of course that

456
00:18:56,333 --> 00:18:59,899
Vader rather will not have
the services of one Jim Cornette.

457
00:18:59,966 --> 00:19:01,033
[Lawler] Oh.

458
00:19:01,333 --> 00:19:02,733
I don't think that's
gonna matter, McMahon.

459
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,399
And do you know how long I've been

460
00:19:04,466 --> 00:19:06,866
waiting to see
Bret "The Hitman" Hart get his?

461
00:19:06,933 --> 00:19:08,833
Tonight, finally, it may happen.

462
00:19:08,899 --> 00:19:12,033
I'd love to see him get Vader Bombed
and then, whoo, the moonsault.

463
00:19:12,100 --> 00:19:14,066
-Look out. Here we go. Yeah.
-No.

464
00:19:14,133 --> 00:19:17,866
Belly-to-belly.
What a sensational suplex by Doug Furnas.

465
00:19:19,566 --> 00:19:20,866
[Vince]
Yes, those are the kind of moves

466
00:19:20,933 --> 00:19:24,466
we have become accustomed
to by seeing Furnas and Lafon in action

467
00:19:24,533 --> 00:19:26,766
just as we like to see them
in action as well

468
00:19:26,833 --> 00:19:28,100
this Saturday night.

469
00:19:28,633 --> 00:19:31,000
Oh, my goodness,
elbow to the bottom of the jaw.

470
00:19:31,700 --> 00:19:34,266
By the way-- Uh-oh, Shotgun Saturday Night

471
00:19:34,333 --> 00:19:37,666
emanating live
from the official All Star Cafe,

472
00:19:38,066 --> 00:19:39,966
Times Square this Saturday night.

473
00:19:40,033 --> 00:19:42,300
[Lawler] And you said the Flying Nuns
will be there again, right?

474
00:19:42,399 --> 00:19:44,000
-[Vince] Yes, indeed.
-[Lawler] Mother Smucker

475
00:19:44,066 --> 00:19:45,766
and who was the other one?

476
00:19:45,833 --> 00:19:47,433
[Vince] It's Sister Angelica.

477
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,200
[Lawler] Hey, I'd like to see
Ahmed Johnson say Mother Smucker

478
00:19:50,266 --> 00:19:51,433
three times fast, wouldn't he?

479
00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:52,766
[Vince] Never mind.

480
00:19:52,833 --> 00:19:55,233
All four of these participants,
ladies and gentlemen,

481
00:19:55,300 --> 00:19:57,466
are headed to the Royal Rumble.

482
00:19:57,533 --> 00:20:01,133
"Big Daddy Cool" Diesel and Razor
in the actual Royal Rumble matchup.

483
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,500
And again, it's every man for himself.

484
00:20:03,566 --> 00:20:05,766
They won't be partners.
And if you wanna be a part

485
00:20:05,833 --> 00:20:07,766
of the Royal Rumble live,

486
00:20:07,833 --> 00:20:09,600
there you see the number to call,

487
00:20:09,666 --> 00:20:13,766
210-224-9600 for ticket information

488
00:20:13,833 --> 00:20:17,800
for the WWE Royal Rumble upcoming
in now less than two weeks.

489
00:20:17,866 --> 00:20:21,933
[Lawler] Honky Tonk, I think you might
take Furnas right off that list right now.

490
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,100
[Honky Tonk Man]
Well, if Furnas does not get off his back,

491
00:20:24,166 --> 00:20:26,399
he'll never be on the list,
because that's one thing

492
00:20:26,466 --> 00:20:29,733
The Honky Tonk Man doesn't need
is someone with his shoulders down.

493
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,333
[Vince]
And Razor now just about ready

494
00:20:33,700 --> 00:20:34,866
to put Furnas down.

495
00:20:34,933 --> 00:20:36,533
And a little pump handle action here.

496
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:37,600
-Up he-- Oh.
-[Lawler] Oh.

497
00:20:37,666 --> 00:20:38,766
[Vince] What about that?

498
00:20:38,833 --> 00:20:40,266
-[Lawler] He got him.
-[Vince] Stay with us,

499
00:20:40,333 --> 00:20:41,899
ladies and gentlemen,
the match will continue.

500
00:20:42,899 --> 00:20:45,766
[narrator] The WWE Royal Rumble,
it's gonna be the wildest,

501
00:20:45,833 --> 00:20:49,399
most outrageous battle
in San Antonio since the Alamo.

502
00:20:49,466 --> 00:20:51,933
Thirty awesome Superstars, one ring,

503
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,066
and everybody ready to Rumble.

504
00:20:54,133 --> 00:20:57,366
Plus, Shawn Michaels looks
for a payback when he battle Sycho Sid

505
00:20:57,433 --> 00:20:59,300
for the WWE Championship.

506
00:20:59,366 --> 00:21:02,766
And Ahmed Johnson will be judge,
jury, and executioner

507
00:21:02,833 --> 00:21:05,733
against the leader
of the Nation of Domination, Faarooq.

508
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,333
The WWE Royal Rumble, live January 19.

509
00:21:09,399 --> 00:21:12,800
Nobody does Pay-Per-View
like the World Wrestling Entertainment.

510
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,233
[Vince] We welcome you back,
ladies and gentlemen,

511
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:17,166
to more tag team action
tonight on Monday Night Raw.

512
00:21:17,233 --> 00:21:19,333
Dough Furnas in there against Razor Ramon.

513
00:21:20,333 --> 00:21:22,100
Furnas and Lafon against Ramon

514
00:21:23,133 --> 00:21:24,933
-and "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel. And…
-[Lawler] Yes.

515
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,866
[Vince] …oh, my goodness
tag was not made.

516
00:21:28,399 --> 00:21:31,933
And I'm sure Doug Furnas would like
to tag his partner, Philip Lafon.

517
00:21:33,333 --> 00:21:36,133
Big sidewalk slam coming up it looks like.

518
00:21:37,433 --> 00:21:38,866
-[Lawler] Yes.
-[Vince] Oh. Wow.

519
00:21:38,933 --> 00:21:40,266
[Lawler] Look at the size of Diesel.

520
00:21:40,333 --> 00:21:41,700
I mean, this guy is huge, McMahon.

521
00:21:41,766 --> 00:21:43,533
-[Vince] He is a monster.
-[Lawler] This could be it.

522
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,566
[Vince] And a cover here, two,
and that's not enough

523
00:21:45,633 --> 00:21:47,066
to put Doug Furnas away.

524
00:21:47,133 --> 00:21:49,200
[Lawler] Come on, Diesel,
don't let him hang around.

525
00:21:49,666 --> 00:21:51,800
It'll be like the Jacksonville Jaguars
next thing you know,

526
00:21:52,899 --> 00:21:53,933
pull a big upset.

527
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,966
[Vince] Razor Ramon
and "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel

528
00:21:56,033 --> 00:21:58,166
have been actually surprising

529
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,166
in their tag team effectiveness,

530
00:22:02,500 --> 00:22:04,833
recently holding a victory
over the Godwinn family.

531
00:22:04,899 --> 00:22:06,200
Look at this, Razor with the forearm.

532
00:22:06,266 --> 00:22:07,800
Doug Furnas trying to fight out of there.

533
00:22:07,866 --> 00:22:10,266
And again-- Oh, double teamed here.

534
00:22:12,300 --> 00:22:13,899
Razor flailing away.

535
00:22:17,933 --> 00:22:19,700
Razor Ramon and Doug Furnas,

536
00:22:20,933 --> 00:22:23,300
and The Bad Guy throwing a succession

537
00:22:23,366 --> 00:22:25,000
of elbows to the midsection.

538
00:22:25,899 --> 00:22:27,100
Uh-oh, come on.

539
00:22:27,166 --> 00:22:29,466
Double team effort
behind the official's back.

540
00:22:29,533 --> 00:22:32,833
Philip Lafon can just not stand there
and watch what was going on

541
00:22:32,899 --> 00:22:34,100
with his partner, Doug Furnas.

542
00:22:34,166 --> 00:22:37,200
[Lawler] That's a secret of being
a good tag team, McMahon.

543
00:22:37,266 --> 00:22:38,266
-[Vince] Really?
-[Lawler] Yeah.

544
00:22:38,333 --> 00:22:39,533
No one to tag, win it.

545
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,300
[Vince] The Honky Tonk Man
is taking notes.

546
00:22:41,366 --> 00:22:42,800
[Honky Tonk Man]
I gotta say,

547
00:22:42,866 --> 00:22:45,399
I've been to several
of the World Wrestling Entertainment

548
00:22:45,466 --> 00:22:46,899
events around the country.

549
00:22:46,966 --> 00:22:49,033
Sometimes, I have
to go incognito, because…

550
00:22:49,100 --> 00:22:51,033
-[Lawler] Watch this.
-[Vince] Oh.

551
00:22:51,100 --> 00:22:52,733
Well, I can't imagine that.
You go incognito?

552
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,033
[Honky Tonk Man] Yes.
I get recognized by so many people.

553
00:22:55,100 --> 00:22:56,899
I have so many friends
and fans that want to see me.

554
00:22:56,966 --> 00:22:59,233
And they all wanna know
when I'm gonna make this decision

555
00:22:59,300 --> 00:23:01,899
about who's gonna be the next greatest
of all time.

556
00:23:01,966 --> 00:23:04,600
I can only say that I haven't
made that decision yet.

557
00:23:04,666 --> 00:23:08,433
And when the time comes, Vince,
you'll be probably-- In fact,

558
00:23:08,500 --> 00:23:09,899
you will be the first to know.

559
00:23:09,966 --> 00:23:11,399
[Lawler] You'll tell him
before you tell me?

560
00:23:11,466 --> 00:23:12,700
-Yeah, I'll have--
-[Vince] Oh.

561
00:23:12,766 --> 00:23:15,966
I'll have to, King, simply
because I know that Vince McMahon

562
00:23:16,033 --> 00:23:20,466
would probably won't need to put him,
include him in that selection process.

563
00:23:20,533 --> 00:23:22,666
Right now, he hasn't been included.

564
00:23:22,733 --> 00:23:24,266
Well, I feel privileged actually.

565
00:23:24,333 --> 00:23:26,333
"Big Daddy Cool" Diesel
missing with a legdrop.

566
00:23:27,833 --> 00:23:30,766
Diesel now, let's see if he will prevent
the tag being made by Lafon.

567
00:23:30,833 --> 00:23:32,000
And-- Uh-oh, no.

568
00:23:32,066 --> 00:23:34,433
Furnas and Lafon
just can't quite make the tag.

569
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:38,800
Diesel and "Big Daddy Cool"
Diesel with his partner, Razor,

570
00:23:38,866 --> 00:23:41,566
doing a pretty effective job of keeping
Doug Furnas from making the tag.

571
00:23:41,633 --> 00:23:43,666
And there's a drop-- Oh, nicely done.

572
00:23:43,733 --> 00:23:45,266
[Lawler] Oh, a back fighter, hey?

573
00:23:45,333 --> 00:23:48,000
Come on, Diesel.
That would really make me hot.

574
00:23:48,066 --> 00:23:49,366
-[Vince] It would, huh?
-[Lawler] Yes.

575
00:23:50,033 --> 00:23:53,166
[Vince] And there, finally the tag
is made, Philip Lafon coming in.

576
00:23:53,233 --> 00:23:54,533
-[Lawler] Oh.
-[Vince] The Frenchman

577
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:55,966
going to work on Big Daddy Cool.

578
00:23:56,033 --> 00:23:58,700
Oh, right on the bottom of the jaw.

579
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,866
-[Lawler] Oh.
-[Vince] Oh, there's one to the back

580
00:24:00,933 --> 00:24:02,966
-of the head.
-[Lawler] Wow, he really got up there.

581
00:24:03,033 --> 00:24:05,266
[Vince] Philip Lafon
all over Razor Ramon now.

582
00:24:05,333 --> 00:24:08,833
Phil Lafon taking it--
There we go again to the side of the head.

583
00:24:08,899 --> 00:24:11,800
A cover, that should do it.
And no, not quite.

584
00:24:11,866 --> 00:24:13,766
[Lawler] Remember, McMahon,
the match ain't over

585
00:24:13,833 --> 00:24:15,200
until the fat lady rings the bell.

586
00:24:15,266 --> 00:24:17,600
[Vince] Uh-huh.
Well, I think she's warming up. Oh.

587
00:24:17,666 --> 00:24:18,700
[Lawler] Oh. [laughs]

588
00:24:18,766 --> 00:24:21,500
-Oh. Look at this.
-[Vince] And a dropkick there.

589
00:24:21,566 --> 00:24:24,300
One, two, and he got him.

590
00:24:24,366 --> 00:24:25,966
-[Lawler] No, he didn't.
-[Vince] No.

591
00:24:27,399 --> 00:24:29,066
And there's that reverse knife edge.

592
00:24:29,766 --> 00:24:31,066
Let's take another look at this.

593
00:24:31,133 --> 00:24:34,066
Watch this dropkick
by Doug Furnas in the chest area.

594
00:24:34,133 --> 00:24:37,066
And a near fall to say the least.
All right.

595
00:24:37,133 --> 00:24:38,500
-Here-- Uh-oh.
-[Lawler] Uh-oh.

596
00:24:38,566 --> 00:24:40,833
[Vince] And there,
Phil Lafon running right into that size,

597
00:24:40,899 --> 00:24:42,666
-whatever it maybe, boot.
-[Lawler] Is that a 20?

598
00:24:43,066 --> 00:24:44,966
[Vince] And now,
Diesel having the presence of mind

599
00:24:45,033 --> 00:24:48,233
of tagging Razor in,
probably to put the Razor's Edge.

600
00:24:48,300 --> 00:24:50,133
No, wait a minute. Here we go,
Phil Lafon reaching in.

601
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,300
-[Lawler] Oh, no.
-[Vince] Oh, yes.

602
00:24:52,366 --> 00:24:53,733
Beautiful suplex.

603
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,000
And now, Phil Lafon reaching
to make the tag to Doug Furnas.

604
00:24:57,066 --> 00:24:58,833
[Lawler] Razor,
you need to get right back out again.

605
00:24:58,899 --> 00:25:01,000
[Vince] And I think that's
exactly what The Bad Guy wants to do.

606
00:25:01,066 --> 00:25:02,533
-No, wait a minute.
-[Lawler] Playing possum.

607
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:03,899
[Vince] Oh, yeah, he was.

608
00:25:03,966 --> 00:25:05,200
[Lawler] Good move, Razor.

609
00:25:05,266 --> 00:25:07,166
[Vince] Yes. An excellent maneuver.

610
00:25:08,199 --> 00:25:11,199
Ramon now setting up the--
Here we go, Razor's Edge.

611
00:25:11,933 --> 00:25:13,933
-[Vince] Razor's Edge, and…
-[Lawler] Hey.

612
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,166
[Vince] No, wait a minute,
from behind with a double team there.

613
00:25:17,233 --> 00:25:18,633
[Lawler] Yeah, what about that, McMahon?

614
00:25:18,699 --> 00:25:20,066
[Vince] Hey, I'm not the official.

615
00:25:20,133 --> 00:25:21,766
-From the other side.
-[Lawler yelps]

616
00:25:21,833 --> 00:25:23,100
-Oh.
-[Vince] Frankensteiner.

617
00:25:23,166 --> 00:25:24,300
What's gonna happen now?

618
00:25:24,366 --> 00:25:27,600
Razor in trouble, Diesel in there
to make sure that there's not gonna be--

619
00:25:27,666 --> 00:25:29,266
-[Lawler] Oh.
-[Vince] Reverse knife edge there.

620
00:25:30,633 --> 00:25:31,833
-[Lawler] Look out.
-[Vince] Double--

621
00:25:31,899 --> 00:25:33,500
-Look at that double team effort.
-[Lawler] Oh.

622
00:25:33,566 --> 00:25:37,166
[Vince] Razor clothesline,
with Diesel clothesline on the outside.

623
00:25:37,233 --> 00:25:39,166
And Razor is all by himself now. Oh, wow.

624
00:25:39,233 --> 00:25:41,633
[Lawler] Look at these guys, McMahon.
It's two-on-one, look out, Razor.

625
00:25:41,699 --> 00:25:44,933
-[Vince] Oh, one, two…
-[Lawler] He's got his hair.

626
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,066
-[Vince] …he got him.
-[bell ringing]

627
00:25:47,133 --> 00:25:48,899
["Rock On" playing]

628
00:25:48,966 --> 00:25:50,833
[Howard] Here are your winners,
Doug Furnas…

629
00:25:50,899 --> 00:25:53,366
[Vince] And yes,
they are winners for sure.

630
00:25:53,433 --> 00:25:55,866
Philip Lafon and Doug Furnas

631
00:25:55,933 --> 00:25:58,800
thus far continuing
their undefeated streak

632
00:25:58,866 --> 00:26:00,966
here in the World Wrestling Entertainment.

633
00:26:01,033 --> 00:26:03,266
Of course, you have to wonder
whether or not they'll be contested

634
00:26:03,333 --> 00:26:04,466
by the Flying Nuns.

635
00:26:05,399 --> 00:26:08,433
All right, Honky Tonk Man,
who's it gonna be?

636
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:11,899
[Honky Tonk Man] I'm not in a position
right now to say what--

637
00:26:11,966 --> 00:26:14,666
What's on my mind or what I'm gonna do,
but there's no other--

638
00:26:14,733 --> 00:26:17,066
There's been no individual right now
that's been crossed out

639
00:26:17,133 --> 00:26:21,566
of The Honky Tonk Man's list,
not The King, not even you, Vince McMahon.

640
00:26:21,633 --> 00:26:25,300
The WWE is loaded with talent.
And I'm searching for that one individual.

641
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,133
[Vince] And maybe you'll find him,
but I don't think it's gonna be that man.

642
00:26:28,199 --> 00:26:30,533
Standing by, ladies and gentlemen,
Bret "The Hitman" Hart

643
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,800
ready to take on The Man They Call Vader.
What a matchup that's gonna be.

644
00:26:33,866 --> 00:26:35,633
But right now,
we'll take you back to last week,

645
00:26:35,699 --> 00:26:37,300
The King against Goldust, look at this.

646
00:26:37,366 --> 00:26:39,466
[Lawler] Yeah, you might know
you'd show the only offensive move

647
00:26:39,533 --> 00:26:40,966
Goldust made during the entire match.

648
00:26:41,033 --> 00:26:43,766
As a matter of fact, I've beat him
from pillar to post so bad

649
00:26:43,833 --> 00:26:46,766
that Marlena motioned for Hunter Hearst
Helmsley to come over and take her away.

650
00:26:46,833 --> 00:26:48,600
[Vince] She what?
She tried to jump out of his arms

651
00:26:48,666 --> 00:26:50,300
-and look what happened.
-[Lawler] She was begging,

652
00:26:50,366 --> 00:26:52,366
pleading for Hunter
to take her to the back.

653
00:26:52,433 --> 00:26:53,766
[Vince] Yeah,
but the "Wildman" Marc Mero

654
00:26:53,833 --> 00:26:55,533
stopped the progress
of Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Look…

655
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:56,666
he throws Marlena…

656
00:26:56,733 --> 00:26:59,266
-[Lawler yells]
-[Vince] …and then Goldust comes in.

657
00:26:59,333 --> 00:27:01,399
And right there, everybody was wiped out.

658
00:27:01,466 --> 00:27:03,266
Look at Helmsley take it to Goldust.

659
00:27:03,333 --> 00:27:05,266
[Lawler] That's a real man
right there, McMahon.

660
00:27:05,333 --> 00:27:06,633
A real man.

661
00:27:06,699 --> 00:27:10,033
[Vince] Yeah. Well, I bet Goldust
and for that matter, The Wildman proved

662
00:27:10,100 --> 00:27:14,000
both their collective manhood to you
and Hunter Hearst Helmsley next week.

663
00:27:14,066 --> 00:27:15,733
-[Lawler] Huh?
-[Vince] Yes, the tag team match

664
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,933
is on, ladies and gentlemen,
right here on Raw next week.

665
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,800
Goldust, there he is, teaming up
with the Wildman against you, King,

666
00:27:22,866 --> 00:27:24,600
-and Mr. Helmsley.
-[Lawler] I can't wait, McMahon.

667
00:27:24,666 --> 00:27:27,733
[Vince] Well, people couldn't wait
for this, Shotgun Saturday Night.

668
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,800
Goldust and the submission maneuver,
the Camel Clutch of The Sultan.

669
00:27:30,866 --> 00:27:32,966
And look, what would Marlena do
for Goldust?

670
00:27:33,033 --> 00:27:34,666
-[Lawler] What?
-[Vince] She would do…

671
00:27:34,733 --> 00:27:36,166
-[Lawler] What?
-[Vince] That's what she did.

672
00:27:36,666 --> 00:27:38,199
-Look, The Sultan…
-[Lawler gasps]

673
00:27:38,266 --> 00:27:39,399
[Vince] …can't believe it.

674
00:27:39,466 --> 00:27:41,399
Bob Backlund trying to cover
The Sultan's eyes.

675
00:27:41,466 --> 00:27:43,133
-[Lawler chuckles]
-[Vince] Backlund going bonkers.

676
00:27:43,199 --> 00:27:46,833
And Goldust takes advantage
as Marlena knew that he would.

677
00:27:46,899 --> 00:27:48,899
And, King, you and Helmsley
about to be concerned

678
00:27:48,966 --> 00:27:51,533
as to what Marlena will do
in our show for that matter

679
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,433
next week here on Raw
during the tag team matchup.

680
00:27:53,500 --> 00:27:55,366
-[Lawler] I won't look.
-[Vince] But standing by here

681
00:27:55,433 --> 00:27:56,933
not much will be Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

682
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,466
And Bret must be concerned
with possible interference

683
00:27:59,533 --> 00:28:01,933
from Shawn Michaels doing commentary
during your match, Bret.

684
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,800
Well, we all know
where Shawn Michaels' integrity lies

685
00:28:04,866 --> 00:28:06,399
when it comes to interfering in matches.

686
00:28:06,466 --> 00:28:07,466
I should know better.

687
00:28:07,533 --> 00:28:11,166
But if Shawn Michaels wants to stick
his self at ringside,

688
00:28:11,233 --> 00:28:12,466
plant himself there,

689
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,066
I just hope that he does stick his nose
in my business, 'cause…

690
00:28:16,133 --> 00:28:17,666
-[Lawler] You do?
-…that would be my pleasure.

691
00:28:17,733 --> 00:28:20,033
Yeah, I'd like to see him
stick his nose in my business.

692
00:28:20,100 --> 00:28:23,433
And as far as Vader goes,
he's big, but he's stupid.

693
00:28:23,500 --> 00:28:26,600
Now, I mark my words, when this thing
comes down to the final seconds,

694
00:28:26,666 --> 00:28:29,066
-Vader is gonna make one mistake--
-["Snapped" playing]

695
00:28:29,133 --> 00:28:30,866
-No.
-[crowd cheering]

696
00:28:30,933 --> 00:28:33,000
[Vince] The Hitman seems perturbed.

697
00:28:33,566 --> 00:28:35,033
[Lawler] Where is he going, McMahon?

698
00:28:36,166 --> 00:28:38,233
Only two weeks until the Royal Rumble.

699
00:28:38,300 --> 00:28:39,800
I am jacked.

700
00:28:39,866 --> 00:28:41,933
You're jacked.
Hello, look at the sign I made.

701
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,100
It took me all day. Steve.

702
00:28:43,166 --> 00:28:45,066
Steve's gonna see my sign. Steve.

703
00:28:45,733 --> 00:28:47,100
-The sign is wrong.
-What?

704
00:28:47,166 --> 00:28:49,633
-The sign is wrong.
-Austin, A-U-S-T-I-N.

705
00:28:49,699 --> 00:28:51,366
It's Austin 3:16.

706
00:28:51,433 --> 00:28:53,933
3:16, fat boy, not 3:18.

707
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,766
Oh, do you know how long it took me
to make this sign?

708
00:28:55,833 --> 00:28:57,300
Do it over again.

709
00:28:57,366 --> 00:28:59,033
Hey, pal. You're in my seat.

710
00:28:59,466 --> 00:29:00,800
What?

711
00:29:02,666 --> 00:29:04,233
Hey, dude, your sign is wrong.

712
00:29:06,133 --> 00:29:08,066
It's gonna be a long two weeks.

713
00:29:10,300 --> 00:29:12,133
[Vince] We're back. Yes.
Welcome back, everyone,

714
00:29:12,199 --> 00:29:14,033
to more Monday Night Raw.

715
00:29:14,100 --> 00:29:15,333
And, oh, my goodness.

716
00:29:15,399 --> 00:29:16,866
Look at this physical specimen,
if you will.

717
00:29:16,933 --> 00:29:18,033
[Lawler] Oh, me.

718
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:19,266
[Ross] Ladies and gentlemen,

719
00:29:19,333 --> 00:29:22,199
the World Wrestling Entertainment
Champion,

720
00:29:22,266 --> 00:29:24,866
Sycho Sid.

721
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,100
[Vince] Yes. In a moment,
we will hear from the WWE Champion

722
00:29:29,166 --> 00:29:31,566
as it relates to his match
defending the title

723
00:29:31,633 --> 00:29:33,566
in San Antonio at the Alamodome.

724
00:29:33,633 --> 00:29:35,733
And of course, yet to come tonight on Raw,
ladies and gentlemen,

725
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,633
Bret "The Hitman" Hart, yeah.

726
00:29:37,699 --> 00:29:41,966
Bret "The Hitman" Hart
goes one-on-one with Vader.

727
00:29:43,366 --> 00:29:46,300
And Sid looking forward to his encounter
with Shawn Michaels.

728
00:29:46,366 --> 00:29:50,399
You will recall last week,
Sid interrupting the interview with the--

729
00:29:50,466 --> 00:29:53,533
Face to face if you would
with Shawn and Bret Hart.

730
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,300
[crowd cheering]

731
00:29:56,366 --> 00:29:57,533
[Vince] He obviously made reference

732
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,366
to the fact that he had defeated
both individuals.

733
00:29:59,433 --> 00:30:01,633
And when it came to competition,
he didn't see any.

734
00:30:01,699 --> 00:30:03,666
And of course, we know then
the lights went out.

735
00:30:03,733 --> 00:30:05,600
-[Lawler] Yeah.
-Sid, on January 19th

736
00:30:05,666 --> 00:30:07,733
in San Antonio, Texas,

737
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,300
there will be 70,000 fans in attendance

738
00:30:11,366 --> 00:30:15,166
cheering the hometown hero,
Shawn Michaels,

739
00:30:15,233 --> 00:30:18,833
who will attempt to regain the WWE title.

740
00:30:20,266 --> 00:30:24,366
Are you, sir, the least bit intimidated

741
00:30:24,433 --> 00:30:28,566
about going into such hostile territory
in San Antonio?

742
00:30:30,066 --> 00:30:34,699
See, Jim Ross,
you haven't even got a clue,

743
00:30:35,866 --> 00:30:40,399
because I am not intimidated by nothing,

744
00:30:41,966 --> 00:30:44,699
no man that walks.

745
00:30:46,399 --> 00:30:49,600
Now, see what we're standing
in here right here

746
00:30:49,666 --> 00:30:53,333
is what I consider a dying field.

747
00:30:54,133 --> 00:30:59,300
And inside this area,
you have to hit or be hitting,

748
00:31:00,199 --> 00:31:02,933
you have to kick or be kicking.

749
00:31:03,666 --> 00:31:07,100
And in some cases,
you have to take the camera…

750
00:31:08,399 --> 00:31:11,733
and hit someone before you are hit first.

751
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,533
[Lawler] I told you
he wouldn't apologize, McMahon.

752
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:14,899
[laughs]

753
00:31:14,966 --> 00:31:16,033
[Vince] In time.

754
00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:18,633
See, in San Antonio at the Alamodome,

755
00:31:19,566 --> 00:31:21,566
everybody is gonna realize something

756
00:31:21,633 --> 00:31:24,800
just like that, see, the day I was born,

757
00:31:24,866 --> 00:31:27,033
I was born the man.

758
00:31:30,433 --> 00:31:32,166
See, Shawn Michaels…

759
00:31:33,699 --> 00:31:37,800
you, my friend, can never have that claim.

760
00:31:37,866 --> 00:31:40,399
I don't care
even if it's in your hometown.

761
00:31:41,233 --> 00:31:46,199
So, I'm gonna walk into San Antonio
with the odds against me.

762
00:31:47,500 --> 00:31:49,633
I will walk in the man…

763
00:31:53,733 --> 00:31:55,800
and I will walk out.

764
00:31:58,433 --> 00:32:01,066
[crowd cheering]

765
00:32:02,233 --> 00:32:04,000
I will walk out the man.

766
00:32:04,500 --> 00:32:06,566
And why can I say this?

767
00:32:08,533 --> 00:32:09,933
'Cause it's easy…

768
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,366
'cause I am the master…

769
00:32:15,133 --> 00:32:16,933
and I am the ruler…

770
00:32:18,466 --> 00:32:19,566
of the world.

771
00:32:22,466 --> 00:32:24,133
[crowd cheering]

772
00:32:24,199 --> 00:32:26,000
[Vince] Well, that remains
to be seen, I would suggest.

773
00:32:26,066 --> 00:32:28,233
However, Sid is not the underdog.

774
00:32:28,300 --> 00:32:30,966
Shawn Michaels clearly is the underdog.

775
00:32:31,033 --> 00:32:32,899
-["Sexy Boy" playing]
-[Vince] And-- Oh, wait a minute.

776
00:32:32,966 --> 00:32:35,699
Speaking of The Heartbreak Kid,

777
00:32:35,766 --> 00:32:37,666
-I believe he's on his way.
-[Lawler] Wait a minute.

778
00:32:37,733 --> 00:32:39,633
He's not supposed to be
out here yet, McMahon.

779
00:32:41,133 --> 00:32:44,833
[Vince] Yes. The matchup next,
we'll see Bret "The Hitman" Hart

780
00:32:44,899 --> 00:32:46,566
against The Man They Call Vader.

781
00:32:46,633 --> 00:32:51,066
And here comes Shawn Michaels
with José Lothario out to do commentary.

782
00:32:51,133 --> 00:32:53,333
And you wonder whether or not
he's gonna do a little more than that

783
00:32:53,399 --> 00:32:55,233
with Sid in the squared circle.

784
00:32:56,233 --> 00:32:58,899
Shawn Michaels against Sycho Sid.

785
00:32:58,966 --> 00:33:02,066
You have to wonder whether or not
the fans are gonna be cheering

786
00:33:02,133 --> 00:33:05,033
in San Antonio for Sid
like the New York fans did.

787
00:33:05,100 --> 00:33:06,300
[Lawler] Well, I'll tell you this.

788
00:33:06,366 --> 00:33:09,199
The New York fans will cheer
when The Grinch stole Christmas.

Is this for me, McMahon?

796
00:33:25,566 --> 00:33:28,233
I think-- Whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.

797
00:33:29,733 --> 00:33:30,766
Wait a minute.

is dancing on the ceiling

800
00:33:36,066 --> 00:33:38,633
right in front of Sycho Sid.

[crowd cheering]

802
00:33:41,533 --> 00:33:44,966
[Vince] Sycho Sid
just might wanna make that apology.

803

See, this is what I'm talking about

804
00:33:48,699 --> 00:33:51,466
and this is why I do the things I do.

805
00:33:51,533 --> 00:33:56,000
So right now,
I wanna apologize around the world.

806
00:33:56,066 --> 00:33:57,366
[Vince] I told you, King.

807
00:34:00,933 --> 00:34:02,166
[Lawler] I missed the joke.

808
00:34:02,233 --> 00:34:04,933
[Vince] José Lothario out here,
the Spanish commentator.

809
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,500
I wanna apologize for what I'm gonna do…

810
00:34:09,866 --> 00:34:11,933
-[Vince] Hey.
-…'cause I'm not gonna be responsible.

811
00:34:13,033 --> 00:34:14,799
[Lawler] Did you hear that, McMahon?

812
00:34:14,866 --> 00:34:16,799
He said he's gonna apologize
for what he's gonna do.

813
00:34:17,266 --> 00:34:18,466
[Vince] What does he mean by that?

814
00:34:19,266 --> 00:34:20,600
Stay with us. We'll find out.

815
00:34:20,666 --> 00:34:21,666
We'll be right back.

816
00:34:22,900 --> 00:34:24,299
[Vince] We're back with more Raw.

817
00:34:24,366 --> 00:34:27,366
However, on Sunday, January 19th,
Starburst Fruit Twist presents

818
00:34:27,433 --> 00:34:30,600
the 1997 WWE Royal Rumble

819
00:34:30,666 --> 00:34:34,299
live in two weeks from the Alamodome
in San Antonio, Texas

820
00:34:34,799 --> 00:34:36,100
exclusively on pay-per-view.

821
00:34:36,166 --> 00:34:38,933
And here he comes now,
Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

822
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,500
Bret, you and Shawn certainly have
had your differences to say the least.

823
00:34:42,566 --> 00:34:45,233
[Shawn] I want you to answer me
one question though, McMahon.

824
00:34:45,299 --> 00:34:47,566
-[Vince] Yeah.
-[Shawn] Who drew first blood?

825
00:34:48,933 --> 00:34:50,366
That would be Bret.

826
00:34:51,033 --> 00:34:53,933
I simply defended
the World Wrestling Entertainment title

827
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,400
as best as I could.

828
00:34:55,466 --> 00:34:59,633
And he sat in his home in Calgary
and knocked everything I did.

829
00:34:59,700 --> 00:35:01,866
Why? Out of pure jealousy.

830
00:35:02,466 --> 00:35:05,166
Hey, nice white boots too, by the way.

831
00:35:06,100 --> 00:35:07,666
Those match his outfit really well.

832
00:35:07,733 --> 00:35:09,400
-[Howard] …Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
-[Lawler] Yeah.

833
00:35:09,466 --> 00:35:12,566
Bret's boots are uglier
than OJ's Bruno Magli's.

834
00:35:12,633 --> 00:35:14,799
-[chuckles]
-[Vince] I beg your pardon?

835
00:35:16,666 --> 00:35:21,266
All right. Bret "The Hitman" Hart
awaiting the presence of this mastodon,

836
00:35:21,733 --> 00:35:25,333
this Man They Call Vader,
inconspicuous by his absence,

837
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:26,700
ladies and gentlemen.

838
00:35:26,766 --> 00:35:28,833
The man who will not be
at the side of Vader,

839
00:35:28,900 --> 00:35:31,200
we're making reference,
of course, to Jim Cornette.

840
00:35:31,666 --> 00:35:34,600
And we're gonna show you some footage
of, uh, Jim Cornette

841
00:35:34,666 --> 00:35:36,633
upside down so to speak
a little bit later on.

842
00:35:37,366 --> 00:35:38,466
Look at this.

843
00:35:38,733 --> 00:35:40,833
[Shawn] Well, you know something, Vince?

844
00:35:40,900 --> 00:35:43,033
When I won the
World Wrestling Entertainment Championship

845
00:35:43,100 --> 00:35:44,733
I tried to do everything

846
00:35:44,799 --> 00:35:47,166
you and the World Wrestling Entertainment
wanted me to do.

847
00:35:47,233 --> 00:35:48,333
But you know what?

848
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,266
I was happy and I think being happy
made me lose my edge.

849
00:35:51,333 --> 00:35:54,700
And believe me,
I'm edgy and I'm cranky and I'm back.

850
00:35:54,766 --> 00:35:57,466
[Vince] No doubt about that.
It's all about attitude.

851
00:35:57,533 --> 00:35:59,299
And that's where you're gonna find out

852
00:35:59,366 --> 00:36:01,733
here in the World Wrestling Entertainment,
ladies and gentlemen.

853
00:36:01,799 --> 00:36:04,700
And here comes the man
with an attitude, a bad attitude.

854
00:36:05,133 --> 00:36:09,866
He's upset over what happened
just yesterday on WWE Superstars

855
00:36:09,933 --> 00:36:12,233
when indeed Jim Cornette was--

856
00:36:12,299 --> 00:36:15,033
Well, what he did,
he kept berating The Undertaker

857
00:36:15,100 --> 00:36:16,799
all the way during The Undertaker's match.

858
00:36:16,866 --> 00:36:18,433
Cornette lost his pants on Saturday.

859
00:36:18,500 --> 00:36:19,833
He lost more than that yesterday.

860
00:36:19,900 --> 00:36:21,500
[Cornette]
We pay the light bill around here.

861
00:36:21,566 --> 00:36:23,299
I'm just telling you
what Vader's gonna do to him.

862
00:36:23,366 --> 00:36:24,366
[Ross] Well, I--

863
00:36:24,533 --> 00:36:25,566
-Oh, my.
-Uh-huh.

864
00:36:25,633 --> 00:36:27,866
-[Ross] Uh-oh.
-I knew he'd run.

865
00:36:27,933 --> 00:36:30,633
I knew he'd run
under the cover of darkness,

866
00:36:30,700 --> 00:36:32,299
like the coward that he is,

867
00:36:32,366 --> 00:36:35,933
because he knows
that Vader's in this building here today.

868
00:36:36,966 --> 00:36:38,033
[Ross] Hey.

869
00:36:38,100 --> 00:36:41,100
-["Rest in Peace" playing]
-[crowd cheering]

870
00:36:43,366 --> 00:36:44,366
[Ross] Oh, my.

871
00:36:49,100 --> 00:36:52,299
The Undertaker now-- Oh, my gosh.

872
00:36:52,900 --> 00:36:54,266
Look at the girth.

873
00:36:54,333 --> 00:36:55,933
He's got Cornette up.

874
00:36:57,033 --> 00:36:59,100
Not a Tombstone, yes.

875
00:37:00,233 --> 00:37:01,633
Cornette is out.

876
00:37:04,533 --> 00:37:06,400
[Vince] And, of course,
that was the best play-by-play man

877
00:37:06,466 --> 00:37:08,733
in the business, JR,
giving his commentary.

878
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:10,966
All right. Here we go.

879
00:37:11,033 --> 00:37:13,233
Bret Hart against The Man They Call Vader.

880
00:37:14,466 --> 00:37:16,233
[Lawler] What do you think
it would look like

881
00:37:16,299 --> 00:37:19,766
if you and Vader were to jump
on Bret "The Hitman" Hart

882
00:37:19,833 --> 00:37:21,333
-at the same time?
-[Vince] Now, wait.

883
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,166
[Lawler] No, I think
that might be pretty exciting.

884
00:37:23,233 --> 00:37:24,966
-I might like to see that.
-[Vince] That's your style.

885
00:37:25,033 --> 00:37:27,500
[Shawn] Bret would turn
into a little oil spot into the mat…

886
00:37:27,566 --> 00:37:29,033
just like that.

887
00:37:29,100 --> 00:37:30,733
-[Vince] All right.
-[Shawn] I think he already is.

888
00:37:30,799 --> 00:37:31,666
Oh, no. Just a--

889
00:37:31,733 --> 00:37:33,600
[Lawler] Would you like to see that,
Shawn Michaels?

890
00:37:33,666 --> 00:37:35,266
-I would.
-[Shawn] Hey, you know something?

891
00:37:35,333 --> 00:37:37,500
If I'm--
If Bret Hart's gonna get squashed,

892
00:37:37,566 --> 00:37:38,733
I'll squash him by myself.

893
00:37:38,799 --> 00:37:40,299
I don't need anybody's help.

894
00:37:40,366 --> 00:37:42,266
[Vince] And certainly not yours,
I wouldn't think, King.

895
00:37:42,333 --> 00:37:43,333
[Lawler] What do you mean?

896
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,066
[Vince] Shawn Michaels, very
particular about whom he associates with.

897
00:37:46,133 --> 00:37:48,766
Look at this, Vader dominating Bret Hart.

898
00:37:48,833 --> 00:37:52,333
Bret Hart would do well to stay away
from those rights and lefts.

899
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:53,966
And you know how they feel,
Shawn Michaels.

900
00:37:54,033 --> 00:37:55,366
[Shawn] That's right, he hit you so hard.

901
00:37:55,433 --> 00:37:57,133
You wake up
and your clothes are out of style.

902
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,166
Fortunately, that won't affect Bret.

903
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,933
[Vince] Uh-oh. To the outside,
Vader dumps him out.

904
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:04,500
[Lawler] Shawn,
I think I'll just write down

905
00:38:04,566 --> 00:38:06,066
all of these little witticisms of yours

906
00:38:06,133 --> 00:38:08,266
and, uh, show them to The Hitman
after this match is over.

907
00:38:08,333 --> 00:38:10,433
[Shawn] Well, you can steal them
like you do everything else

908
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:11,799
and use them on next week's show.

909
00:38:11,866 --> 00:38:13,333
-[Lawler] Hey, right.
-[Vince] My goodness.

910
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,900
Look at this, Vader all over
Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

911
00:38:15,966 --> 00:38:19,033
The Man They Call Vader now
with Bret Hart, not a bit of a reversal.

912
00:38:19,100 --> 00:38:20,533
-[Shawn] Oh!
-[Lawler] Wow.

913
00:38:21,966 --> 00:38:24,166
[Shawn] You know
what I wanna know about, Vince?

914
00:38:24,233 --> 00:38:25,466
Who's they?

915
00:38:25,533 --> 00:38:27,600
Who's they, they call Vader? Is that us?

916
00:38:27,666 --> 00:38:29,666
[Vince] Oh, my goodness.

917
00:38:29,733 --> 00:38:31,100
Making reference to the fans, of course.

918
00:38:31,166 --> 00:38:33,400
And Bret Hart now
has turned things around.

919
00:38:33,466 --> 00:38:36,433
And that's the thing
that you have to be leery of Bret Hart.

920
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:39,266
Bret Hart is more defensive
than he is offensive,

921
00:38:39,333 --> 00:38:41,200
although right now
he's taking it to Vader.

922
00:38:41,266 --> 00:38:44,066
But Bret likes to make his opponents
make the mistakes.

923
00:38:44,133 --> 00:38:45,400
And-- Oh, my goodness,

924
00:38:45,466 --> 00:38:47,933
has Bret Hart ever capitalize
in a mistake Vader made?

925
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,333
I'm sure what he likes to do
is tell everybody something he's not.

926
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,500
He likes to say that he's honest and fair,

927
00:38:53,566 --> 00:38:55,400
but then he'll whack you over the head
with a chair.

928
00:38:55,466 --> 00:38:58,700
At least me, I'll tell you
I'm gonna hit you with a chair.

929
00:38:58,766 --> 00:39:01,133
I'm gonna cheat to win.

930
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,633
[Vince] No one has ever been
any more straightforward than you.

931
00:39:03,700 --> 00:39:05,333
There's no question about it. Right now--

932
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,733
Oh, my goodness,
Bret Hart working in the groin area.

933
00:39:08,799 --> 00:39:10,700
-Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
-[Lawler] Well, that's why you say

934
00:39:10,766 --> 00:39:12,799
you never claimed to be a role model,
right, Shawn Michaels?

935
00:39:12,866 --> 00:39:14,766
-[Shawn] That's right.
-[Lawler] You don't mind admitting

936
00:39:14,833 --> 00:39:16,500
that you have to cheat to win. [laughs]

937
00:39:16,566 --> 00:39:18,299
[Shawn] Hey,
I'll do whatever it takes to win.

938
00:39:18,366 --> 00:39:19,933
Nowadays, I tried playing by the book.

939
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,400
All it did was have everybody
come down on me.

940
00:39:22,466 --> 00:39:24,766
Now, I'm gonna start going back
to doing things my way.

941
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,799
[Vince] And it seems as though
that is the way of just about everyone

942
00:39:27,866 --> 00:39:29,666
here in the World Wrestling Entertainment.

943
00:39:29,733 --> 00:39:31,433
[Lawler] Look where it got Frank Sinatra.

944
00:39:31,500 --> 00:39:32,866
[Vince] Frank Sinatra?

945
00:39:32,933 --> 00:39:34,966
-Where did you-- Oh, my goodness.
-[Lawler] He thinks his way,

946
00:39:35,033 --> 00:39:36,533
-shriveled up old prune.
-[Vince] Stop it.

947
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,200
Bret Hart working on the shoulder area,
trying to keep the big man down.

948
00:39:41,266 --> 00:39:43,466
Pretty good strategy
on the part of Bret Hart.

949
00:39:43,533 --> 00:39:46,600
However, if Vader can get back up
in a standing position

950
00:39:46,666 --> 00:39:51,900
and use that sizable weight advantage,
it could spell trouble for Bret Hart.

951
00:39:51,966 --> 00:39:53,966
-Bret Hart needs this victory.
-[Shawn] I wonder what--

952
00:39:54,033 --> 00:39:55,933
[Shawn] Sure he does.
Um, you always need a victory.

953
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,400
It's not like,
"Oh, I can really use a loss this time."

954
00:39:58,466 --> 00:40:00,366
[Vince] No, but I understand that.
But Bret more than ever

955
00:40:00,433 --> 00:40:02,966
needs this victory
going into the Royal Rumble.

956
00:40:03,033 --> 00:40:04,966
He needs to have
that all important momentum.

957
00:40:05,033 --> 00:40:06,933
[Shawn] Yeah. And so does Vader though.
Let's face it.

958
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,200
The Royal Rumble,
the man who wins gets to face

959
00:40:09,266 --> 00:40:10,833
the World Wrestling Entertainment
Champion.

960
00:40:11,633 --> 00:40:16,766
[Vince] Vader against The Undertaker
at the Royal Rumble.

961
00:40:16,833 --> 00:40:21,266
The Hitman, one of thirty individuals
in the Royal Rumble matchup

962
00:40:21,333 --> 00:40:23,033
and a marked man, I would suggest

963
00:40:23,100 --> 00:40:25,366
and not too likely be one of the favorites
to win the Rumble.

964
00:40:25,433 --> 00:40:27,033
-Vader is manhandling him.
-[Shawn] And I guess

965
00:40:27,100 --> 00:40:29,500
what you're saying is there's no chance
for Vader to win the Rumble, huh?

966
00:40:29,566 --> 00:40:31,000
I mean, he's got a whole set…

967
00:40:31,066 --> 00:40:33,299
[Vince] No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm saying Bret Hart

968
00:40:33,366 --> 00:40:36,566
probably is the least likely to win
the Royal Rumble.

969
00:40:36,633 --> 00:40:38,866
Anybody else could win this thing. Oh!

970
00:40:38,933 --> 00:40:40,433
[Lawler] I'm gonna write that down,
McMahon,

971
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:42,466
-and show it to him too.
-[Vince] That's all right.

972
00:40:42,533 --> 00:40:45,600
Bret knows full well
that when it comes to reputation

973
00:40:45,666 --> 00:40:49,333
more than anyone else
in the Royal Rumble matchup itself,

974
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:50,766
Bret is a marked man.

975
00:40:50,833 --> 00:40:52,133
Who wouldn't like to be known as the man

976
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,833
who threw Bret Hart
over the top to the outside?

977
00:40:54,900 --> 00:40:57,400
And almost [speaks indistinctly]
saying you're the man that beat Bret Hart

978
00:40:57,466 --> 00:40:59,200
for the World Wrestling Entertainment
Championship.

979
00:40:59,266 --> 00:41:01,733
[chuckles] Well, I think
that's a little bigger thing than--

980
00:41:01,799 --> 00:41:04,533
[Shawn] Although he says
he was screwed out of that belt.

981
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:05,766
-Yes, we heard that.
-I said

982
00:41:05,833 --> 00:41:08,633
if I remember, there had to be a winner.

983
00:41:08,700 --> 00:41:10,133
[Vince] And-- Oh.

984
00:41:11,133 --> 00:41:14,233
Devastating maneuver
and Bret Hart is in trouble.

985
00:41:14,299 --> 00:41:17,900
Oh, wait a minute.
Stone Cold--Stone Cold looking on.

986
00:41:19,900 --> 00:41:22,400
[narrator] And now,
it's time to get twisted

987
00:41:22,466 --> 00:41:27,666
with the Starburst Fruit Twist Rewind,
twist up the juice.

988
00:41:27,733 --> 00:41:30,200
[Vince] Ahmed Johnson
taking it to the extreme

989
00:41:30,266 --> 00:41:32,200
with one of the members
of the Nation of Domination.

990
00:41:32,266 --> 00:41:33,766
They're on top of the car.

991
00:41:33,833 --> 00:41:35,466
What's he doing? Oh, wait a minute.

992
00:41:35,533 --> 00:41:38,766
Ahmed setting up the Pearl River Plunge.

993
00:41:38,833 --> 00:41:40,266
He has it hooked.

994
00:41:40,333 --> 00:41:43,400
He has him up and-- Oh, devastating.

995
00:41:43,466 --> 00:41:45,666
It's Shotgun Saturday Night.

996
00:41:45,733 --> 00:41:48,633
[narrator] Rewind was brought to you
by Starburst Fruit Twist

997
00:41:48,700 --> 00:41:51,299
with four twisted fruit flavors
in every pack.

998
00:41:51,366 --> 00:41:53,533
Twist up the juice.

999
00:41:54,933 --> 00:41:56,900
[Vince] Welcome back, everyone,
with more of WWE Raw.

1000
00:41:56,966 --> 00:41:59,766
Vader is hammering Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

1001
00:41:59,833 --> 00:42:02,799
And Vader, all of a sudden,
has really poured it on during the break.

1002
00:42:02,866 --> 00:42:04,533
[Lawler] This is great, McMahon.
I'm loving it.

1003
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:05,966
[Vince]
Yeah, you like it, don't you?

1004
00:42:06,033 --> 00:42:08,366
I think Shawn Michaels likes it as well.

1005
00:42:08,433 --> 00:42:10,000
Shawn Michaels looking on,
ladies and gentlemen

1006
00:42:10,066 --> 00:42:11,233
for color commentary.

1007
00:42:11,299 --> 00:42:13,166
And also joining us as well over

1008
00:42:13,233 --> 00:42:16,066
in the Spanish commentary position,
José Lothario.

1009
00:42:17,933 --> 00:42:19,966
-Uh-oh.
-[Lawler] What was José's son's name?

1010
00:42:20,033 --> 00:42:21,000
[Vince] Pete, why?

1011
00:42:21,066 --> 00:42:23,299
-[Lawler] Why didn't he name him José B?
-[Vince] All right. Come on.

1012
00:42:23,366 --> 00:42:24,933
[Lawler] Then they're gonna
be José and José B.

1013
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:26,500
-[Vince] Vader. Yeah.
-[Lawler] Whoa.

1014
00:42:26,566 --> 00:42:28,600
-[Vince] Forget about it.
-[Lawler] Beautiful.

1015
00:42:28,666 --> 00:42:29,866
[Vince] Bret Hart being scraped.

1016
00:42:29,933 --> 00:42:31,266
No, a kickout.

1017
00:42:32,100 --> 00:42:34,666
Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels
certainly have had their differences

1018
00:42:34,733 --> 00:42:37,333
and it's all about attitude
and role models.

1019
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,666
Yeah. But once again, at least I admit it.

1020
00:42:39,733 --> 00:42:43,766
He's telling everybody
he's a brain surgeon and he's an angel.

1021
00:42:43,833 --> 00:42:46,333
Believe me, folks, he ain't no angel.

1022
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,266
Now, if I could come clean, I would.

1023
00:42:48,333 --> 00:42:49,766
But I know you'll smack me in the face

1024
00:42:49,833 --> 00:42:51,933
-if I [speaks indistinctly]
-[Vince] Vader now going upstairs

1025
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,400
and "The Hitman" Bret Hart--
Now, wait a minute.

1026
00:42:54,466 --> 00:42:56,166
-He's gonna go all the way up.
-[Shawn] He's going--

1027
00:42:56,233 --> 00:42:58,299
-[Lawler] Moonsault. Moonsault.
-[Shawn] Moonsault time.

1028
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,133
[Vince] The official
trying to get Vader down.

1029
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,066
-[Lawler] Get out of the way, ref.
-[Vince] Here we go.

1030
00:43:03,133 --> 00:43:05,500
Vader now content to stay
right where he is and--

1031
00:43:05,566 --> 00:43:06,633
No.

1032
00:43:08,266 --> 00:43:11,733
The Hitman lifts the knees
into the chest area of Vader.

1033
00:43:11,799 --> 00:43:13,033
[Shawn] Mama sang bass

1034
00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:15,500
and Vader sang tenor.

1035
00:43:15,566 --> 00:43:18,366
[Vince] And now,
Bret Hart wailing away.

1036
00:43:19,100 --> 00:43:21,266
Bret Hart into the midsection.

1037
00:43:21,333 --> 00:43:24,033
"The Hitman" Bret Hart trying
to set up the big man for the ride,

1038
00:43:24,100 --> 00:43:27,533
has him rolling off the rope
and plants a right into the midsection.

1039
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:29,700
[Shawn] Focus on the Russian leg sweep.
Whoopsie.

1040
00:43:29,766 --> 00:43:31,766
[Vince] Uh-huh.
We've seen that patented maneuver.

1041
00:43:31,833 --> 00:43:33,266
Now, you know what's coming next.

1042
00:43:33,333 --> 00:43:35,900
[Shawn] You bet
'cause it's the same all the time.

1043
00:43:35,966 --> 00:43:37,333
But he is the best there is,
the best-- Oh.

1044
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:38,733
[Vince] And looking on continuously

1045
00:43:38,799 --> 00:43:41,266
ladies and gentlemen,
there's trouble in River City.

1046
00:43:41,333 --> 00:43:43,100
[Lawler] He slammed Vader.

1047
00:43:43,933 --> 00:43:47,566
[Vince] And right now,
Bret Hart from the corner, yes.

1048
00:43:47,633 --> 00:43:49,066
Bret Hart mounting the offense.

1049
00:43:49,133 --> 00:43:51,966
Here we go. The cover, the count and nope,

1050
00:43:52,033 --> 00:43:53,866
not enough to put Vader away.

1051
00:43:55,433 --> 00:43:56,900
[Lawler] I smell a sharpshooter coming.

1052
00:43:57,799 --> 00:44:02,066
[Vince] If he can get it around
those huge massive legs of Vader.

1053
00:44:03,533 --> 00:44:05,600
-And Bret Hart…
-[Lawler] Whoa.

1054
00:44:05,666 --> 00:44:06,866
[Vince] …clever maneuver.

1055
00:44:06,933 --> 00:44:09,233
[Shawn] I would say that took
a little steam out of Bret too.

1056
00:44:09,299 --> 00:44:11,166
[Vince] No doubt.
And finally, a cover, two

1057
00:44:11,233 --> 00:44:14,400
and he-- Oh, a kickout by Vader.

1058
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,100
[Lawler] You said earlier that Bret Hart
really needs this victory, so does Vader.

1059
00:44:20,166 --> 00:44:22,833
Vader cannot afford to lose
to Bret "The Hitman" Hart

1060
00:44:22,900 --> 00:44:24,533
but he's gotta face The Undertaker next.

1061
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,266
[Vince] Both men
laying it on the line,

1062
00:44:26,333 --> 00:44:27,433
just prior to the Royal Rumble.

1063
00:44:27,500 --> 00:44:29,666
Off the rope now and Vader-- Oh, no.

1064
00:44:29,733 --> 00:44:30,733
Look at that.

1065
00:44:30,799 --> 00:44:32,266
-[Lawler] Whoa.
-[Shawn] Whoa.

1066
00:44:32,333 --> 00:44:35,333
[Vince] And to the outside,
Vader and Bret Hart.

1067
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,866
[crowd chatter]

1068
00:44:38,933 --> 00:44:40,900
[Vince] And the official
beginning to count.

1069
00:44:41,633 --> 00:44:45,200
And I'm sure neither individual
would wanna be counted out

1070
00:44:45,266 --> 00:44:46,933
in this matchup.

1071
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:48,833
Uh-oh, Vader hammering away.

1072
00:44:48,900 --> 00:44:51,799
Bret Hart, a headbutt.

1073
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:54,533
[Lawler] Hey, look.

1074
00:44:55,433 --> 00:44:57,600
[Vince] Wait a minute.

1075
00:44:57,666 --> 00:45:00,866
And Sid just
rabbed the cameraman.

1076
00:45:00,933 --> 00:45:02,366
[Shawn]
He got the camera guy?

1077
00:45:02,433 --> 00:45:03,500
[Lawler] Look at Vader.

1078
00:45:04,966 --> 00:45:08,600
[Vince] Sid grabbed the cameraman
and nonetheless--

1079
00:45:08,666 --> 00:45:11,366
Oh, wait a minute.
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin is out here.

1080
00:45:11,433 --> 00:45:13,200
[Shawn] Looks like
he was going for the Stunner.

1081
00:45:13,266 --> 00:45:15,033
[Vince] "Stone Cold" Steve Austin…

1082
00:45:17,766 --> 00:45:20,566
just gave Bret "The Hitman" Hart…

1083
00:45:22,566 --> 00:45:26,233
the Stone Cold Stunner
and The Hitman is back in now,

1084
00:45:26,299 --> 00:45:28,066
so is Vader, so is the official.

1085
00:45:28,133 --> 00:45:30,500
And Bret Hart has to be feeling the effect

1086
00:45:30,566 --> 00:45:33,299
of what "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
just did on the outside.

1087
00:45:33,366 --> 00:45:35,533
Vader now once again going up.

1088
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,166
[crowd cheering]

1089
00:45:38,233 --> 00:45:40,400
[Shawn] If he gets this, it's over.
You know what it is.

1090
00:45:40,466 --> 00:45:41,766
[Vince]
And Vader now coming up and-- No.

1091
00:45:41,833 --> 00:45:43,200
-[Lawler] Oh!
-[Shawn] That's it.

1092
00:45:43,266 --> 00:45:44,766
[Vince] Bret trying
to raise the knee too late

1093
00:45:44,833 --> 00:45:45,799
and a count of three.

1094
00:45:45,866 --> 00:45:47,433
-[Shawn] As the rule would say…
-[bell dings]

1095
00:45:47,500 --> 00:45:49,200
[Shawn] …put a fork in and he's done.

1096
00:45:49,266 --> 00:45:52,566
-[crowd cheering]
-["Mastodon" playing]

1097
00:45:52,633 --> 00:45:56,666
[Vince] And, Shawn Michaels,
you don't seem to be upset at all

1098
00:45:56,733 --> 00:46:01,066
over the fact that Bret "The Hitman" Hart
lost this matchup

1099
00:46:01,133 --> 00:46:04,799
on the eve, if you would,
of the Royal Rumble.

1100
00:46:04,866 --> 00:46:06,100
[Shawn] Well, no. Of course, I'm not.

1101
00:46:06,166 --> 00:46:08,100
But then again,
I wouldn't be upset if Vader lost.

1102
00:46:08,166 --> 00:46:11,933
Let's face it. Trying to be popular
and trying to be a nice guy around here

1103
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,100
didn't get me anywhere.

1104
00:46:13,166 --> 00:46:14,633
Now, I'm doing things my way.

1105
00:46:14,700 --> 00:46:16,666
No friends, no allies.

1106
00:46:16,733 --> 00:46:19,866
[Vince] Vader with a victory
over Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

1107
00:46:19,933 --> 00:46:23,666
And it will be Vader now
one-on-one with The Undertaker.

1108
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:26,833
And I wouldn't call this an upset.

1109
00:46:26,900 --> 00:46:29,366
Nonetheless, Vader victorious.

1110
00:46:29,433 --> 00:46:31,566
And look at what had happened
to Bret Hart.

1111
00:46:31,633 --> 00:46:35,500
He has had the steam knocked out of him
just prior to the Royal Rumble.

1112
00:46:35,566 --> 00:46:39,433
And "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
continues to be a thorn

1113
00:46:39,500 --> 00:46:41,066
-in The Hitman's side.
-[Shawn] Oh, jeez.

1114
00:46:41,133 --> 00:46:42,766
The guy's always got a bug in his butt.

1115
00:46:42,833 --> 00:46:44,733
-He's always upset about something…
-[Vince] Wait a minute.

1116
00:46:44,799 --> 00:46:46,166
-Standing by…
-…unless he gets his guard.

1117
00:46:46,233 --> 00:46:48,233
[Vince] I'm sorry. Wait a minute.
Shawn, we're told--

1118
00:46:48,299 --> 00:46:49,866
-we're told--
-There's Pete.

1119
00:46:51,700 --> 00:46:53,700
-[Vince] Pete Lothario.
-See, I didn't wanna do this.

1120
00:46:53,766 --> 00:46:55,533
-I don't wanna do this.
-[Vince] No.

1121
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,666
It's kind of hard for me to do this,
but I will have to.

1122
00:46:58,733 --> 00:47:00,633
[Vince] Boy, wait a minute.

1123
00:47:00,700 --> 00:47:03,066
-What's he doing?
-[Lawler] Look at-- Whoa.

1124
00:47:03,133 --> 00:47:04,766
[Vince] Oh, no.

1125
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:10,466
I can't believe
what Sid just did to Pete Lothario.

1126
00:47:11,866 --> 00:47:13,833
We're back and we'll take another look
now what Sycho Sid--

1127
00:47:13,900 --> 00:47:16,133
That he is psycho and now we know why.

1128
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,200
He was making reference
to that apology earlier.

1129
00:47:18,266 --> 00:47:21,299
That's what we saw
before we went to the break.

1130
00:47:21,366 --> 00:47:25,033
Sycho Sid just annihilating José's son

1131
00:47:25,100 --> 00:47:27,266
and now we're back in the locker room.

1132
00:47:27,333 --> 00:47:29,633
-Shawn Michaels is back there now.
-[speaks indistinctly]

1133
00:47:29,700 --> 00:47:32,133
And Shawn Michaels backed
by a number of individuals.

1134
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,066
Where's the…

1135
00:47:35,833 --> 00:47:37,500
[Vince]
The paramedics are on their way.

1136
00:47:37,566 --> 00:47:39,066
[speaking indistinctly]

1137
00:47:39,133 --> 00:47:41,833
[Vince] Michaels as well
as everyone else obviously

1138
00:47:41,900 --> 00:47:46,833
very, very upset
over what Sid did to José Lothario's son.

1139
00:47:46,900 --> 00:47:48,133
