[narrator] In over 100 countries, in seven different languages,
to more than a half billion viewers each week,
the World Wrestling Entertainment,
the worldwide leader in sports entertainment.
Together, Mr. Austin, with my vision, and your charisma,
together with my mental prowess and your physical prowess,
you might become the greatest WWE Champion of all time.
You ain't gonna mold me, you ain't gonna break me.
What you see, Vince, is what you get.
[crowd cheering]
[Lawler] Oh. Oh. There he goes!
Stone Cold just stunned the owner of the WWE.
Not again, he did it again.
-Look at me. Look at me. -No, you deserve this.
-I want you-- -Hey, hey, hey, hey, Stone.
Knock it off.
[Stone Cold speaking indistinctly] You son of a…
Oh, no, you ain't gonna beat me.
-That won't do any good. -Who do you think you are?
You ain't seen the last of me, Vince.
Yeah, I'm gonna get your ass.
[JR] One night after becoming WWE Champion,
Steve Austin was in jail.
Tonight, Vince McMahon has promised that Stone Cold
will be the model, corporate WWE Champion.
But the question remains,
how will The Rattlesnake respond?
[siren blaring]
["Thorn In Your Eye" playing]
[fireworks exploding]
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Hello again, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to WWE Raw.
I'm Jim Ross, alongside Michael Cole, and we are at ringside.
And what a night this is going to be.
[Cole] It's gonna be an unreal night, folks.
It is gonna be one heck of an evening in Syracuse.
Yes, indeed, ladies and gentlemen,
we expect a tremendous night, an unpredictable night.
A battle tonight, right here on Raw.
We're sold out here in Syracuse.
And I can tell you this, DX, in mass, will be here,
including the leader, Triple H, Chyna,
along with, of course, ladies and gentlemen,
X-Pac and The Outlaws.
[Cole] Yes. And The Undertaker is here, as well.
He'll speak to us for the first time since WrestleMania.
Plus, Kane and Paul Bearer will join us via satellite.
[JR] And as the owner of the World Wrestling Entertainment
makes his way to the ring, Vince McMahon,
let us also remind you that the Intercontinental title
will be on the line tonight when Owen Hart challenges The Rock.
[Cole] Plus Faarooq was ambushed earlier today.
We have exclusive footage.
[JR] And tonight, for the first time,
Luna will wrestle a man.
It's a mixed gender match for the first time ever in the WWE.
[crowd chanting] Steve Austin! Steve Austin!
And listen to this crowd.
This crowd wants "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
coming on the heels of Vince McMahon's altercation
with the WWE champ last week.
[crowd continues chanting]
May I have your… May I have your attention, please?
[crowd booing]
Last Monday night on Raw, when I had "Stone Cold" Steve Austin arrested,
that was the toughest decision
I've ever had to make in my professional life.
[crowd booing]
And I would like to let you know that I had second thoughts about it.
As a matter fact,
as a result of my benevolence,
later on, Mr. Austin was released that very same night.
[crowd cheering]
Nonetheless,
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin has learned his lesson.
[crowd booing]
And he learned it the hard way.
No longer will "Stone Cold" Steve Austin be considered
a beer-swilling, hand-gesturing,
trash-talking, blue-collared WWE Champion.
-[Cole] What? -[JR] I like what he's saying.
Because tonight could very well be
the proudest moment I have ever had in my professional career.
Tonight, ladies and gentlemen,
you will see a new and improved
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin
right here in this very ring.
[Cole] All right. It could happen.
Again, I repeat, a new and improved Stone Cold.
I'll guarantee it or your money back.
-Thank you. -[Cole] Wow!
A money back guarantee?
I tell you what, I believe him, JR.
Look what George Steinbrenner did to that rebel, Reggie Jackson.
I mean, Jackson's in a suit and tie now, working in the front office.
And what about what Jerry Jones did to your old pal, Barry Switzer,
down there in Dallas.
[crowd chanting] Austin! Austin!
[JR] Well, Vince McMahon has… Obviously feels very confident.
[crowd continues chanting]
He's got the power to get it done. And this crowd is not too high on him.
[Cole] The WWE owner, Vince McMahon. JR, what is he talking about?
Are we gonna see a corporate Stone Cold tonight?
Well, it's certainly what it sounds like, ladies and gentlemen.
And I tell you, I know Steve Austin for quite some time.
I'll believe it when I see it, quite frankly, from Stone Cold.
["Fighter" playing]
[Cole] Wow. Here he comes. He's known as The Beast.
Dan Severn led to the ring with James E. Cornette.
This guy is void of emotion, JR.
He is all business.
[JR] He is gripping a Championship belt.
Dan Severn, a 13-time National AAU Champion.
[Cole] Wow.
[JR] Arguably, the greatest Ultimate Fighting Champion of all time,
in the eyes of a lot of folks is that man,
Dan "The Beast" Severn.
He is cold, he is calculating,
as Michael Cole eluded to, he is all business.
[Cole] He has black belts in three separate disciplines.
He is The Beast, Dan Severn.
And right now, a special look at the man they call The Beast.
[man 1] He is an expert in the arts of Greco-Roman sambo,
and freestyle wrestling,
Daniel Severn.
-[crowd cheering] -Severn.
[man 2] He is focused 100 percent.
Let's get it on!
[man 3] Oh, he got him into submission.
[Cole] Man, what a… Dan Severn.
-[Lawler] Man! -[Cole] With a belly-to-belly suplex.
-Severn-- -[Lawler] Look at this.
[Cole] Double arm suplex.
[bell ringing]
They call him Dan "The Beast" Severn.
[Lawler] And The Beast is singlehandedly destroying The Headbangers.
[Cole] Will The Beast be tentative tonight and this is the first match-up in the WWE.
[bell ringing]
Well, certainly, Dan Severn, The Beast,
is one of the most impressive fighters, grapplers we have ever seen. No doubt.
Take a look at the gold, JR. Take a look at the gold.
You know, I told Dan, I've got a few things to say here tonight so I told him,
stretch it out if you can, Dan, because his last No Holds Barred fight
was in February against Kevin Rosier,
a 6'5", 320-pound former six-time World Kickboxing Champion.
Dan Severn won it with a 27-second knockout.
[JR] He is an impressive athlete, no doubt.
Dan "The Beast" Severn, quickly going behind.
Looking for a waistlock takedown. Nice move there, Michael.
[Cole] A very nice move, Dan Severn, now in control on the mat.
And The Beast, his nickname, Jim Cornette, tell us a little bit about that.
[Cornette] His fellow competitors nicknamed him The Beast
because he's a calm, cool, collected man outside the ring
but when you make him mad, when you anger him,
then you release The Beast and he's just that, he's an animal.
He is a complete savage as a competitor.
[Cole] Wow. Nice takedown by Dan Severn.
Quickly now, uh-oh.
[JR] Severn going for the armbar submission.
He's trying to hyperextend the elbow there of Flash Funk.
And you see, Flash trying to block it and not allow his elbow to be straightened,
his arm to be straightened, more specifically.
[Cornette] If he straightens Flash Funk's elbow,
then Flash Funk has two choices,
he's gonna submit or he's gonna have a broken arm.
[Cole] Dan Severn, the current NWA World Heavyweight Champion.
[Cornette] You see the Championship belts in front of you,
the NWA World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion,
you see the UFC Superfight Championship,
the Ultimate, Ultimate Championship belt.
These are only four of his title belts.
He has a bunch more at home that he didn't bring
because he can't carry them all through the airport.
[crowd gasping]
[Cole] Wow!
[JR] And here's Severn now, hammering away on Flash Funk.
-[Cornette] He's not… -Much easier to punch down, Jim.
[Cornette] He's not punching, he's slapping.
If you punch a man bare knuckled on a punching down position,
you can break your knuckles.
He's not gonna break his hand,
he's gonna slap Flash Funk senseless.
[Cole] The Beast, Dan Severn relentless in his attack on Flash Funk.
[JR] Well, there's no doubt that Severn is an animal.
He has been a world class athlete since he was in elementary school.
And every level that Severn has competed, he has won.
[Cornette] He didn't cover the WWE to take care of anybody,
to do any favors.
[JR] Wow, here's Flash now.
[Cornette] He didn't come here to make any Superstars look good.
He came here to win.
I hear everybody saying, "I'm the baddest man on the planet."
[JR] Wow, what a suplex.
[Cornette] I hear everybody saying, "I'm the World's Most Dangerous Man."
-I hear, oh… -[Cole] Oh, kick up underneath the chin.
I hear everybody saying, "I'm the toughest SOB."
Well, nobody can make those claims as long as Dan Severn is breathing.
[JR] Here's Flash now off the ropes.
Oh, look at the strength again by Severn.
Look out. Oh, what a move.
[Cole] Oh, he'll settle for the armbar.
Severn is gonna hyperextend the arm or gonna break it
-and Flash Funk gives it up. -[bell ringing]
[JR] The armbar by Dan Severn, The Beast, victorious.
He still has that arm locked in.
And I'm gonna tell you what, nobody in the WWE will say
that's a wrestler and I'm taking it straight to the top.
[JR] Whatever you say, James C., nonetheless, Dan Severn,
impressive in his victory tonight on Raw against Flash Funk.
[Cole] Severn may be devoid in emotion,
no doubt he earned the nickname, Dan "The Beast" Severn,
and arguably the greatest Ultimate Fighting Champion of all time
has made quick work of a very capable Flash Funk here.
[JR] Severn, right there, you see the hyperextension on the elbow.
That's a submission victory with authority by Dan "The Beast" Severn.
[Cole] He is draped in gold, Dan Severn, victorious.
Folks, still to come tonight,
will we see a corporate "Stone Cold" Steve Austin?
Plus, DX is in the house.
-Hello? -[JR] Well--
DX, uh, they're in the locker room there,
they're making their way to the ring now. We're gonna be hearing from DX next.
[indistinct chatter]
They've been raising hell all day.
And they're on their way to the ring.
There's absolutely no telling what this group will say here tonight.
DX on their way to the ring.
We will hear from them, next.
[indistinct chatter]
[man] And now, the WWE Rewind brought to you by 10-321.
Just dial it and save up to 50 percent.
[JR] DX is here.
[indistinct chatter]
[whistle blowing]
[Cole] And look at this gang attack.
[JR] Terry Funk is still strapped up.
[Cole] Oh, no.
And-- Oh, a piledriver.
Oh, God.
My God, that's carnage.
[man] That was the WWE rewind brought to by 10-321.
Dial 10-321 before the one area code and number on calls from home.
10-321 saves on every call and 50 percent on all calls over 20 minutes.

[crowd cheering]
[JR] Here they come,
the five members of D-Generation X,
led of course by Triple H.
Chyna is there, X-Pac,
and the New Age Outlaws.
[crowd cheering]
Last week, we heard Triple H takeover D-Generation X.
He introduced X-Pac, the athlete formerly known as the 1-2-3 Kid.
There is no doubt that this group will do anything to shock us.
They promised to raise hell tonight.
[Cole] I have a feeling, JR, this may just be the start of it.
[JR] Folks, the start of a great broadcast,
we'll hear from The Undertaker tonight for the first time since WrestleMania,
the Intercontinental title on the line when Owen Hart challenges The Rock.
Faarooq was ambushed earlier today.
We've got exclusive footage of that.
Faarooq's WWE career may have been ended earlier today.
And I know a lot of folks are worrying about the status of Shawn Michaels.
Well, Shawn Michaels is at home in San Antonio
healing from a variety of injuries,
and when asked to come in on the recent restructuring of DX,
Michaels refused to make any comment.
[Cole] No comment? What's he gonna say?
I mean, he's out, look who's in. DX is stronger.
They're more volatile than ever.
Syracuse, last week,
I came in this very ring
and I promised the world
a revolution.
I promised the world a change.
I promised the world an army.
And let's get this straight.
I live up to all of my promises.
[JR] I'm beginning to believe him.
You could take that man for his word.
[crowd booing]
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
children of all ages.
The WWE proudly brings to you,
its World Wrestling Entertainment
Tag Team Champions of the world,
"The Road Dogg" Jesse James,
"Bad Ass" Billy Gunn,
the New Age Outlaws.
[crowd booing]
[imperceptible]
Now, as if it was not perfect enough,
there has been a marriage made straight from heaven,
and you're taking a look at it in the ring right now.
It is combined and comprised
of the youngest and most capable athletes
in our business today.
That, my friends,
is a cold hard fact.
[JR] He ain't lying.
Syracuse, New York, what the hell is going on?
[crowd cheering]
I'm gonna make this short and sweet.
If you came to see the grumpy old man
stanking the joint up, you came to the wrong place.
[crowd cheering]
Because what we got right here is young and hungry, baby.
This is D-Generation X
and we are getting jiggy with it.
[crowd booing]
Like I said before,
you wanted a revolution, you got it.
To WWE,
you want a war,
you got it.
This is the army,
the DX army.
And ladies,
my bazooka is locked,
cocked, and ready to unload.
-[crowd cheering] -[rock music playing]
And oh, yeah!
Two words for you, boys.
Suck it!
[JR] There's absolutely no doubt in my mind
that DX is gonna raise hell here tonight.
No doubt DX is gonna try to take over this broadcast.
It might be a good idea, folks,
to put the youngest to bed because there's just no telling
what's gonna happen right here tonight
as far as DX is concerned.
[Cole] And folks, plenty more to come.
Has The Rattlesnake been tamed?
Will we see a corporate "Stone Cold" Steve Austin tonight?
I can't wait.
[JR] We're back on Raw, DX promised to be raising some hell tonight.
-Look at this backstage now. -[Cole] Hey, wait a minute.
-That's one of our stage hands. -[JR] Yeah.
What are they doing?
[Cole] It's like the sophomore class is on a field trip.
-Found that little dog? -Oh, no way.
[indistinct chatter]
[X-Pac] Who did you expect? Shaquille O'Neal?
[JR] There's no doubt in my mind,
this whole thing is gonna escalate as the night goes on.
These guys cannot be controlled.
Look at this, graffiti.
Complete disrespect for the human being.
[Cole] Well, Triple H promised to raise hell tonight, JR.
The last couple of weeks, he's been a man of his word.
[DX cheering]
[JR] Oh, look at this.
Four or five guys bullying somebody around like a--
Four or five bullies on a schoolyard.
[indistinct chatter]
[Cole] Great painting of that DX sign
all over the place back there.
[JR] New DX, they-- They go from bad to worse.
[Cole] What else is gonna happen tonight?
[JR] I don't have a very good feeling about tonight's broadcast
as it relates to these young goons.
[Cole] Yeah, but who's gonna get in their way?
["Drums In The Night" playing]
And there he is,
"The Lethal Weapon" Steve Blackman,
set for one-on-one action tonight on Raw.
And folks, tonight,
Raw is brought to you by Starburst Fruit Chews.
Need a boost? Give it some juice.
[JR] And buy WWE The Music Volume Two.
Experience your favorite WWE original jams,
now available in stores.
[Cole] And there's the martial arts expert with the Filipino sticks,
bringing the crowd here to its feet.
[JR] The once defeated Steve Blackman,
the only blemish on Blackman's record
is at the hands of Double J
and certainly Tennessee Lee should be given an assist
on that particular victory.
[crowd cheering]
[Cole] Steve Blackman has not forgotten that loss
and he's gonna have his hands full tonight
with "Too Sexy" Brian Christopher.
[bell ringing]
Blackman, a martial arts expert,
put on an incredible role here in the World Wrestling Entertainment.
And as JR mentioned, his only loss by pinfall to Double J a few weeks back,
the assist to a Tennessee Lee,
and now Christopher mocking Blackman.
[JR] I'm still wondering if we're gonna see
a corporate Steve Austin here tonight.
-[Cole] Oh! -Is Austin gonna be in a shirt and tie?
Has Austin been tamed? That's a-- That's a question I'm wondering about.
And plus, folks, don't forget that footage of--
Wait a minute.
There's, uh, Tennessee Lee,
the lanky, uh, promoter of Double J.
[Cole] Christopher, now in control,
and here comes Tennessee Lee.
I wonder what he's got to say?
[JR] Well, it looks like we're gonna be joined here by Tennessee Lee.
The, uh, erstwhile promoter for Double J.
Tennessee, you might wanna put that right there.
Tennessee Lee has come. And, you know, I don't know much about commentating.
I'm a businessman. I've come out here to let our cats out of the bag tonight.
[Cole] That's right. You promised us a big surprise last week.
[Lee] You know when-- Me knowing a surprise
and you not knowing is like I said,
leaves you in a form of state of ignorance.
The whole world-- I mean, I'm a smart man.
I've come here to kill your ignorance this evening.
[JR] We appreciate that as, of course,
Steve Blackman has only one pinfall loss as we have documented in his career.
And that quite frankly is to Double J.
[Lee] Well, you know, there's a lot of men who went up against the great Double J.
Came out the same way he did.
[Cole] Blackman, now heading into the corner to go to work on
Brian Christopher "Too Sexy." Rake of the eyes now, oh, wow, by Christopher.
[JR] Well, Tennessee, as a matter of fact,
we're, we've been thinking about what you said last week.
What is this big surprise that you've been ballyhooing?
Come on, let's-- Tell us what's going on here, the surprise.
[Lee] Oh, boy. I can't wait.
I got the hairs standing up on the back of my neck.
[JR giggling]
[Lee] At Greensboro, North Carolina, Unforgiven…
[crowd cheering]
…I am gonna bring along the CWA, CMA,
award-winning, the American Music Award winners.
I'm bringing out the gold record,
platinum album, the greatest band of all, I'm talking about…
[Cole] Oh, yeah, Mr. Black, easy now.
[Lee] None other than Mark Miller and Sawyer Brown
to back up the great Double J in a giant concert.
[JR] Sawyer Brown will back up Double J?
[Lee] Exactly.
They're gonna back up the great Double J in a giant concert.
[Cole] So, Double J will be singing,
Sawyer Brown will play the music. Is that it?
[Lee] That's exactly right.
Mark Miller's gonna be singing along with Double J.
[JR] Now, we can-- I hate to trust your integrity, sir,
but we can take that to the bank, as they say.
[Lee] Yes, sir. You can surely take it to the bank.
You know, I'd like to sit out here all evening with you fellas.
But I got bigger fish to fry.
Good day to you, gentlemen.
-[JR] Oh, yes, sir. -[Cole] Alright, Tennessee.
[JR] Well, that's pretty interesting…
Watch this take down right here. Full Nelson take down.
[Cole] Obviously, Tennessee Lee at ringside
has gotten sort of in the head of Steve Blackman.
Blackman's concentration not on Brian Christopher.
And Christopher's in total control.
[JR] That's a pretty big coup from Tennessee Lee.
Sawyer Brown, one of the top country groups in America.
They've won many awards and they'll be backing up Double J in Greensboro.
I'd say that's a pretty big piece of business for Tennessee.
[Cole] Oh, dropkick from behind by Brian Christopher.
And Tennessee Lee now, heading back to the locker room area.
[chants mockingly]
And Too Sexy mocking the crowd here in Syracuse.
Nice move by Christopher. Here's the cover. There's two.
Kickout by Steve Blackman.
[JR] Well, at least with Tennessee Lee gone,
Blackman can refocus on Brian Christopher.
One thing about being inexperienced, sometimes you can--
You can get yourself--
Break that focus a little bit, it costs you.
[Cole] Blackman now trying to regain the focus.
Nice move by Steve Blackman.
Trying to gain momentum now.
Off the ropes, big knockdown. Chop up underneath the chin.
Backs Christopher in the corner.
Irish whip across the ring. Face first into the turnbuckle.
-And here's Blackman now. -[JR] Oh, wow!
Very unique move by Blackman. Nothing but a high impact there.
Blackman with a little size advantage over Brian Christopher.
[Cole] Christopher whipped into the ropes. Blackman misses with the dropkick.
Christopher gets a chance to catch his breath
and try to regain control over the martial arts expert.
Blackman's so quick, so agile,
but a big knockdown with a clothesline by Too Sexy.
It's over.
[Cole] Christopher says that's it. He's gonna climb the ropes now.
I'll tell you what, if he connects with this Tennessee Jam,
it could be all over.
But Blackman, quickly to his feet,
and he catches Christopher in the midsection.
[JR] Brian Christopher may have taken too much time here.
[Cole] Big kick.
[JR] Are we gonna see Steve Austin out here with a coat and tie on tonight?
[Cole] Submission hold here by Blackman.
Will Christopher give in?
[JR] Nowhere for Brian Christopher to go, but to say I quit.
-[bell ringing] -A tap out victory for Blackman.
[announcer] Here's your winner, "The Lethal Weapon" Steve Blackman.
[JR] Blackman, very, very impressive.
And again, the only blemish on Blackman's record
is that to Double J in a controversial fashion and--
Speaking of controversial.
Now, we've got the preliminaries out of the way,
how about we bring out a real main event star?
Hold on a minute now, boy.
You listen up to me, old Tennessee Lee.
Now, how about we turn off our lights here and get a proper setting
for me to introduce the greatest star of all.
Let's bring the lights down.
Bring them all down out here.
Ladies and gentlemen,
he's the greatest singer.
He's the greatest entertainer.
He's the greatest wrestler of our time.
That's right, folks.
He's J-E-double-F,
J-A-double-R,
E-double-T!
That's right, folks. It's Double J.
It's Jeff Jarrett.
-Oh, yeah! -[Cole] Hey, JR. look.
There's Double J right there.
-Hey, Blackman. -Bring the lights on back up.
[Cole] Double J in the ring with a guitar.
-[JR] He's got a guitar. -[Lee] Let's get lights back on out here.
-[JR] Look out here. -[Lee] That's perfect.
[JR] Oh, my gosh.
[Cole] Double J just busted the guitar over the head of Blackman.
Blackman may be out cold.
Now, that is a smash hit.
Ain't I great?
Crank that music up.
[JR] I wonder how Sawyer Brown feels now to be associated with a back jumper.
[Lee] Get this loser carcass out of here. He's crowding up the dance floor.
[JR] Double J, what a shot.
A Mark McGwire-like swing with that guitar.
[Cole] And Double J does his strut.
He's rising to the top of the charts here
at the World Wrestling Entertainment with the help of Tennessee Lee.
[JR] I'll tell you what, Double J is gonna be on Blackman's hit list,
-no doubt about that. -Now, that's a smash hit.
[Lee] Get the lights back on here.
Oh, that's perfect.
[JR] Wow. What a shot.
Just listen to this right here. Ka-boom!
[country music playing]
Folks, we've got a camera on a stand
back in the locker room area with DX. There they are.
[all] Hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey!
-[Cole] What are they up to now? -[JR] Who knows?
[Cole] There are the Titan motorcycles.
No, you're not. Wait a second.
-[Cole] The DOA use it. -No, wait a minute.
I just-- I triple dog dare you guys to whizz on those bikes.
-[laughter] -No, yeah. No. No, no.
-I'm telling you right now. -Daring me?
-[Cole] Did he say what I think he said? -I'm daring you,
-to whizz on the bike. -Dared the wrong dude.
[Cole] No way they're gonna do this. No way.
I'll tell you what. These guys love to shock us.
-I don't wanna make it a [bleep] contest. -[laughter]
-Okay. This is a contest that you guys-- -[JR] No.
-Tell me when you're ready. -Okay, I'm ready.
-You ready? -I'm ready.
[Cole] Can you believe this? They think the bikes are fire hydrants.
[JR] Too bad these are Titan bikes and not an electric fence.
[Cole] I'll tell you what--
-On the bikes. On the bikes. -[men whooping]
[Cole] Tell you what, JR. They got my attention.
You know what the old adage is,
it's better to be whizzed off than whizzed on.
There's a camel. Oh, my god.
More than once then you're playing with it, Billy.
[Cole] There's gonna be hell to pay here with the DOA.
-Concentrate. -More than once, you're playing with it.
[Cole] They're laughing now.
He's not done.
[JR] They may not be laughing as this night progresses.
DX respects no one and they're gonna pay for this tonight.
You can count on it.
[narrator] And now, the slam of the week, brought to you by Bop It.
The fun, fast-talking, electronic reflex game from Parker Brothers.
[Lawler] It looks like they're gonna go for the Doomsday Device.
[Cole] LOD not wasting any time.
-Smash mouth in your face. -[Lawler] Oh!
Goes for the cover.
-The LOD, victorious. Wow! -[bell ringing]
[narrator] That was the slam of the week brought to you by Bop It.
The fun, fast-talking electronic reflex game from Parker Brothers
[Cole] We're back on Raw and we're gonna ignore
what happened to the Titan motorcycles backstage.
[JR] Here comes Cactus Jack with a chair and I can smell trouble.
A chair is oftentimes the Cactus's favorite tag partner.
[Cole] Well, let's take a look at what happened last week.
[JR] After last night at WrestleMania,
I don't know how these guys are even walking.
[Cole] A technicality kept Cactus and Chainsaw
from becoming the tag champs at WrestleMania.
So last week, a Cage Match was ordered to settle the dispute.
If you two old hardcore pieces of [bleep]
think you're the champs, you got another thing coming.
[Cole] Minutes after the match began,
we knew why The Outlaws were cockier than ever.
[Lawler] I think we're just finding out who the next members of DX are.
[Cole] The new DX was showing off and this situation grew serious.
This may be the final resting place
for Terry Funk and Cactus Jack.
The two hardcore legends crippled by pain needed assistance leaving the ring.
The capacity crowd's only hope of ending the evening on a high note
was the imminent return of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
[crowd cheering]
I have always
taken a lot of chances
in the ring,
and some very bad things
have happened to me over the years,
but I've always had the comfort of knowing
that when I look at my career, my dreams,
the things that I had accomplished, and the things I had set my heart on,
that it was always worth the pain,
so people asked Cactus, you know, "How is your neck?"
I say, that I'll be damned
if I'm gonna let a group of scum like DX
put Cactus Jack away.
[crowd cheering]
You know, I guess, you see
that Terry Funk is not here
and I haven't talked to Terry,
but I left a message on his answering machine
and I'm not saying this to sound tough, but…
Cactus Jack and Terry Funk do not miss wrestling matches.
So, I have to guess if the Funker was hurt enough to fly home
then it's probably pretty bad.
And I really wish that people could know Terry
a little bit more than just what they see in the ring because…
people will always debate on
who the greatest wrestler of all time is,
but I guarantee you,
you ask every damn last bunch of people in the dressing room,
they'll say that Terry Funk is the gutsiest old bastard
they've ever seen in their lives.
[crowd cheering]
And I guess you've probably seen Terry's back,
and I hope you saw WrestleMania because it was a tremendous match
and I'm very proud of it.
And Terry was laying there on the bed with his belt
and he said, "Cactus, I'm gonna be all right
because I consider this the last match of my career."
You see, Terry had always wanted to retire as a WWE Champion and he said, "Cactus,
it's all been worth it."
But we don't have those belts now, do we?
And I'm not gonna get into the reason why, but I will say
that when Cactus Jack was laying, and I was conscious,
and I could move, but it was…
very hard to move, and I was not very far from being unconscious,
when I looked at Terry Funk,
well, I heard something in my…
In my ears and I got to tell you the truth, it kind of made me sick.
There was an announcement being made
thanking the fans for coming to the WWE event
and they said something about "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
[crowd cheering]
And, uh, yeah, people-- People started chanting his name.
And it's funny because
when I came here two years ago, and I was Mankind,
there are always people saying, "Why don't you just be Cactus Jack?"
Then I came out in tie-dye and some white boots and they said,
"You know, why don't you just be Cactus Jack?"
Well, I gave you Cactus Jack.
I gave you every [bleep] bit of energy I had.
And when I was laying there helpless…
you chanted someone else's name.
[Cole] Cactus almost sounds bitter here.
[crowd chanting] Cactus! Cactus! Cactus!
This is not a knock on "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
Hey, I'm happy he's the Champion.
And he may not admit it, but we've known each other a long time
and he's been my friend.
But what you did to me and Terry Funk laying here in the middle of the ring
was not only distasteful and disrespectful,
it was [bleep] disgusting.
[crowd cheering]
And I'm gonna give you a chance to make it up to me
because I'm gonna accept a group apology right now.
[crowd chattering]
[Cole] Cactus is-- He's asking these fans to apologize
for cheering Steve Austin.
[crowd cheering]
Well…
I can finally say for the first time
after 13 years of blood sweat and tears
that it's not worth it anymore.
-[Cole] What? -It's gonna be a long time
before you see Cactus Jack in the ring again.
[crowd cheering]
[Cole] What is he talking about?
JR, you know, you may have been right last week
when you said with that Steel Cage Match he was involved with The Chainsaw,
may have been the final resting place for Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie.
[JR] Well, old Mick is a very emotional guy.
[crowd chattering]
Uh, I don't know what quite to make of this thing.
It sounded as if he was almost blaming Terry Funk
for the loss in the cage last week.
[Cole] And they were only cheering for Austin
because Austin was on his way back to the arena
after being released from jail under his own recognizance.
I mean, I just don't understand.
I wanna say
for anybody who's even gotten just a little bit out of Cactus Jack match,
thanks a lot.
For the rest of you, hey…
[Cole] You know, this guy is actually feeling sorry for himself.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Well, I tell you what, he's one of the game's great competitors
and it's making a rather sad farewell.
Cactus, goodbye and thank you.
[Cole] We're back on Raw. Let's go back to last week,
the coup unfolding, Faarooq about to be overthrown as the leader of The Nation.
[Faarooq] Get your ass back down here.
[Cole] Faarooq calling The Rock back.
The Rock makes a signal and the ambush is on.
[JR] It was a very aggressive, a very physical attack
by The Nation of Domination on their former leader, Faarooq.
The devastation perpetrated by The Rock, however,
paled in comparison to what happened earlier today.
Ladies and gentlemen, the video you are about to see
was shot and supplied to us by The Nation.
They actually took turns in shooting this video earlier today.
[The Rock] Hey, hey, there he is.
-Come on, hey there, Faarooq. -[Kama] Go get him, Rocky.
[indistinct shouting]
-Hey! -Get his ass down!
Get up! Come on, get up!
[grunts]
[shouting continues]
How do you like that, huh? Huh?
Come here, come here.
-[indistinct chatter] -Pick him up.
[laughs] Hey, come on.
How do you like that, huh?
How do you like that, Faarooq? Huh, how do you like that?
-Huh? -Go back. Go ahead get yourself on camera.
[all chattering indistinctly]
Throw them in there. Throw his body in there.
Huh? How do you like that, huh?
-How do you like that? -How do you like that, huh?
Nationless punk, huh?
-You suck, punk. -Get up, baby, get up! Listen up.
-How do you like that? -Let me tell you something.
For the rest of your life,
you were never the ruler of The Nation,
The Rock is the ruler of The Nation,
-and don't you ever… -[indistinct shouting]
-…ever, ever come back. -Preach that.
-And take this. -[grunts]
♪ We are The Nation of Domination ♪
[Cole] A heinous attack. I mean,
Faarooq may never be the same again after.
[JR] Let me tell you, The Nation may have just ended
Faarooq's WWE career.
I mean, what-- With what's on the concrete,
there is no doubt in anybody's mind
that The Rock is the new ruler of The Nation of Domination.
[Cole] JR, the opportunity to talk to The Rock a bit earlier on this week,
he told me he's the ruler because the term leader is beneath him.
He said he's the ruler because he's gonna lay the smack down
on any member of The Nation he wants to that get out of the line.
[JR] Well, The Rock better be on top of this game
because the Intercontinental title is gonna be on the line momentarily.
When The Rock defends against Owen Hart,
and listen to this chant.
Finally, the People's Champ has returned home to Syracuse.
[JR] The Intercontinental title is next.
[Cole] We're back on Raw.
It's The Rock versus Owen for the Intercontinental title.
[announcer] And the challenger from Calgary, Alberta, Canada
weighing in at 237 pounds,
Owen Hart.
[JR] The Rock, the Intercontinental Champion,
is gonna have his hands full tonight against Owen Hart,
the Black Hart heading to the ring.
[upbeat music playing]
[Cole] We got a sell-out crowd here, ladies and gentlemen.
We expect no less than that in Philadelphia
coming up on the 13th of April.
That's gonna be next Monday night.
Only a few seats are available in Philly for Raw live next Monday night.
And then next Tuesday, eight days from now,
we're gonna be in Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, Long Island,
and tickets are rather scarce for that one, as well.
[JR] And we're set for action now.
The Rock against Owen Hart,
a two-time Intercontinental Champion himself.
[crowd chattering]
The crowd really getting on The Rock,
the new, "ruler" of The Nation of Domination.
I still can't believe that heinous attack on Faarooq earlier today.
[crowd chanting]
[JR] This crowd here can't believe it either
and they're letting us know what they think of The Rock.
[Cole] Locked in the center of the ring now,
and The Rock using his size and weight advantage
to back Owen Hart into the corner.
[JR] Still got to wonder if "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is gonna walk out here in a--
in a coat and tie, if he's gonna be like corporate puppet.
I don't know, I just--
-I can hardly see that happening. -Owen Hart whipped into the corner now.
Here comes The Rock, hits the turnbuckle and Owen now with a nice arm drag.
I cannot wait to see if corporate "Stone Cold" Steve Austin will be great.
[Cole] Don't hold your breath.
Also, we're gonna hear from The Undertaker for the first time since WrestleMania.
Luna's gonna wrestle a man, folks. Yeah, you heard it right.
Luna is gonna wrestle a man,
the first intergender match in WWE history.
[JR] The Rock now slapping Owen Hart.
[crowd chanting]
And this crowd chanting for Owen Hart.
[Cole] JR, you're still skeptical in this whole Stone Cold thing.
[JR] Well, I-- Like I said earlier, I'll believe it when I see it.
[Cole stutters] I mean, Vince convinced you to turn corporate.
You're wearing that Stetson hat of yours.
[JR] Well, he can be very persuasive.
[Cole] You didn't wanna wear that hat, did you?
[JR] We'll, no, I didn't, but I like it now.
Gonna feel naked without them, as a matter of fact.
[Cole] Owen Hart now, nice reversal. Slap across the face.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Owen Hart with an arm drag takedown.
Owen Hart kind of feels naked without gold around his waist
and certainly, Owen Hart's rivalry with Triple H and DX,
and I understand they're just raising hell back in the locker room area.
Again, there's no telling what DX is gonna do here tonight,
but Owen Hart's rivalry with Triple H over the European title
has been well documented and it's far from over.
[Cole] Here's Owen now whipped into the rope by The Rock.
Look out. Kama from behind, grabbed the leg,
the referee had his back turned and now Kama on the apron of the ring.
[JR] Well, if that referee had a brain, he'd get rid of this Nation.
-Get him out of here. -[indistinct shouting]
[Cole] The ref's got a tough job.
He got three members of The Nation outside. And there he goes.
He'll heave-ho from the referee.
[JR] Well, the mess Bobby Valentine got ran out today
and it looks like that the referee here is making a good call.
He's gonna send The Nation, I think, back to the showers.
[Cole] And finally, we're gonna see a one-on-one match-up,
and The Rock, obviously gonna be very vulnerable,
if The Nation is sent back to the showers.
[JR] It's gonna be one-on-one. The Intercontinental title is at stake.
[Cole] It could be one-on-one later tonight, too,
Vince McMahon and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
I'll tell you what, Vince is very convincing.
I would not be shocked to see "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
in that very ring going corporate.
[crowd chattering]
And there go The Nation.
[JR] And The Rock doesn't like this whatsoever.
The Rock doesn't like to be left alone.
[Cole] The Ruler confused and Owen Hart has got him in the sleeper.
If he locks it in, we can have a new Intercontinental Champion.
[Cole] And The Rock reverses it.
Owen off the ropes.
Big kick to the midsection now by The Rock and a DDT.
Wow. The Rock quickly turning the tables.
[JR] You know, there's no denying
the athletic ability of The Rock. He's going for the cover.
[Cole] There's two. Kick-out by Owen.
[JR] Played on a National Championship football team,
then in Miami, his dad, his grandfather, great WWE stars.
[Cole] Can't take it anyway from Owen Hart either, though.
He's held the WWE Tag Team Championship,
the Intercontinental gold, the European gold,
and now The Rock in control of Owen Hart. Shoulder breaker.
[JR] I wanna say hello to all the great fans throughout The Carolinas.
The WWE down in Greensboro. What an event it's gonna be
at the Coliseum on Sunday, April 26th and tickets are still available,
-the box office there. -[Cole] Oh!
The People's Elbow into the sternum.
Here's the cover. Hooks the leg. Two and again, Owen gets the shoulder up.
[JR] I'll tell you what, Owen Hart has got great courage.
You know, no doubt, his ankle still got to be very sore from that--
That ball bat of Chyna,
but he is here. He sucked it up.
And he's playing with all his gut
and of course, you got to be at your best to match up with that man.
These are two young Superstars here in the WWE.
This ain't the Masters' Tour, this is not the Seniors' tour.
[Cole] Big elbow followed up by a clothesline by Owen Hart.
Owen with another clothesline. Gaining momentum now.
Remember, the Intercontinental title is on the line.
Reversal. Owen off the ropes.
The Rock telegraphed it into a swinging neck breaker.
[JR] That could be all right there.
[Cole] Owen hooks the leg. There's two.
-Just out at before three by The Rock. -[JR] Owen couldn't switch up on that leg,
or we would've had a new Intercontinental Champion.
A hard knife edge by the challenger.
[crowd] One, two, three, four, five, six!
[Cole] Owen taking into The Rock
and the crowd behind The Black Hart, the sole survivor.
Owen Hart, off the ropes now.
The Rock staggering, spinning heel kick.
We can have a new Champion.
Hooks the leg. Two. No, oh. The Rock just gets the shoulder up.
Wow! So close.
[crowd chattering]
Owen off the ropes again. Uh-oh.
Could be Rock Bottom time for The Rock,
but Owen reverses it with an elbow.
[crowd cheering]
Enzuigiri!
[JR] That could be all right there. That should be it.
Owen Hart now, he's gonna go for the Sharpshooter.
That'll be it. We got a new Champion.
[Cole] He's got it locked in.
The Rock, writhing in pain.
There's Chyna.
-[JR] What's she-- -Here comes Chyna!
and she's got a ball bat.
-[JR] Oh, no. -My God!
-Can you believe that? -[bell ringing]
What a foul attack by that Amazon.
[JR] Chyna, walloping Owen Hart with a ball bat.
Owen Hart should be the new Intercontinental Champion.
And look at DX reveling in, I guess, their success.
[Cole] Well, DX said they were gonna raise hell tonight.
[announcer] The winner of this match as a result of a disqualification,
Owen Hart.
[crowd cheering]
[Cole] Well, Owen gains the victory but I guess he lost the war
as Chyna triumphantly returns to the DX fold.
[crowd booing]
What else is DX gonna do tonight?
[JR] Chyna, she kinda giving the, uh--
-[Cole] Wow. -The men there, a little cold shoulder.
She dropped the bat and kept on walking.
Let's take another look at this. Listen to this here.
Just listen, folks. Boom.
-Right there, right on the back. -[bell ringing]
Well, ladies and gentlemen,
the War Zone is coming up and here comes Vince McMahon.
[crowd chattering]
["Thorn In Your Eye" playing]

[crowd cheering]
[JR] And welcome, everybody, to the War Zone.
The Oncenter here in Syracuse is sold-out.
And are we going to see a new politically correct Steve Austin?
Here comes the owner of the World Wrestling Entertainment, Vince McMahon.
[crowd booing]
Well, certainly not a great ovation for the owner of the WWE, King.
Well, I'll tell you one thing, I'm excited because--
Hey, do remember that sign we saw in the crowd last week?
Come on, you remember the one.
Well, I've got a feeling that "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
is about to become Vince McMahon's bitch.
-Oh, please. -[laughs] Really. Watch.
[crowd booing]
[Lawler] It's gonna be great. Just watch.
-[JR] Well, again, I don't know. -[Lawler] I could tell why, look.
McMahon doesn't have his usual entourage tonight.
This is gonna be great.
Ladies and gentlemen,
without further ado,
may I present to you,
the new and improved World Wrestling Entertainment Champion,
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Well, we got a money-back guarantee riding on this one.
[crowd cheering]
-Well, I don't believe it. -[Lawler laughing] What did I tell you?
[JR] Well, I was-- I was dead wrong.
Austin in a blue suit, no less, white shirt.
My God, Austin's gone corporate.
[Lawler] He's in a suit, JR. Look at this.
What? You don't mess up good suit climbing up on those ropes.
[JR] I didn't think it'd happen, and…
[Lawler] Well, McMahon says no.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Vince looks awful pleased at what he's accomplished here.
[Lawler] He looks downright smug, doesn't he, JR?
[JR] I got to admit I was wrong.
I'll tell you one thing, though--
[Lawler] I'll tell you what you gotta admit…
This is an improvement. Look at this.
I mean, that's probably a $2,500 Armani suit
compared to a $20 T-shirt he usually wears.
[JR] Underneath that suit, lies the heart of a rattlesnake
and the toughest SOB in the WWE.
[Lawler] I've never seen McMahon smile so much. Look at this.
Mr. Austin…
[man whistling]
I… I'm overwhelmed.
I…
I believe this is the first step.
Tonight, is the very first step
in perhaps, you becoming the greatest WWE Champion of all time.
This is one small step for Steve Austin,
one giant leap for the World Wrestling Entertainment.
And I know that this hasn't been easy.
And I know that,
that in fact, this is gonna take a lot of hard work,
there's no question about that.
-I'd like to thank you-- -[crowd cheering]
Can I have your attention, please?
[Lawler] Yeah, you people, shut up. The boss is talking.
[JR] Oh, suck it up, King.
And Mr. Austin,
I'd like to thank you because obviously, this is a step in the right direction,
but you will recall the meetings we've had and we talked about attire.
We talked about full attire, right?
Right, we talked about everything.
Well, we talked about the way you look,
and we talked about from head to toe, Mr. Austin.
Well, this is exactly what you told me to wear.
I guess, this is what you want me to look like.
And I appreciate the effort.
But this is a work in progress obviously.
And that's all right with me, but your foot attire,
where are the Gucci shoes, Mr. Austin?
Well, those things are a little too tight, so I just put on my wrestling boots.
Those things were hurting my feet. What do you want me to do?
I'm trying real hard. I'm trying real hard to help you out here.
And again,
I'm trying to compromise as well. My--
My effort is not to break your spirit,
only to mold it, to bend it just a little bit, but…
-but are we… -[Lawler] That's reasonable, JR.
[stutters] This… It's nice, and it's a very nice hat.
It's just that, it doesn't go with the suit.
[Lawler] Whoa!
[JR] Well, some fan just got a souvenir.
That was a damn good hat.
I understand that but it just didn't go with the suit.
Nonetheless, ladies and gentlemen,
considering the way "Stone Cold" Steve Austin looks and his effort,
give it up, ladies and gentlemen,
for this extraordinary attire, the new and improved
-"Stone Cold" Steve Austin in a new look. -[crowd booing]
[Lawler] Yes.
[JR] The corporate makeover isn't getting a big ovation, is it?
[Lawler] I'm clapping.
I know, Mr. Austin, that--
everyone here and everyone all over the world is wondering,
What was it? What was the moment that allowed you to accept reality?
That allowed you to begin to bend just a bit?
[JR] I can answer that, when you threatened to fire him.
When you're sitting in a jail cell
and, you know, the walls are kind of closing in around you,
they wouldn't bring me my bread and water, and I started thinking to myself,
"You know, Steve, really,
what kind of chance do you have
to compete against a Vince McMahon?"
I mean, here I am little, old Steve Austin from Victoria, Texas,
and then you've got Vince McMahon
from Greenwich, Connecticut,
the guy born with a silver spoon in his mouth,
the owner of a multimillion-dollar company,
an entrepreneur, a leader,
and here I am a redneck from south Texas
who happens to have a belt. And I--
[crowd cheering]
[JR] A red neck that looks good in a suit.
[Lawler] He's seen the light, JR--
I said to myself… And this is what I said to myself in that jail cell, I said,
no one could hear me, I said,
"Steve, if you think you can beat Vince McMahon,
-give me a hell yeah, and what I had-- -[crowd] Hell yeah!
But like I said I was in a jail cell
and I had to say, "Steve,
hell no, you can't beat Vince McMahon."
-[Lawler laughing] Right. -[JR] Like a stallion being gilded.
-[crowd booing] -[Lawler] What?
You got to understand,
the power that Vince McMahon has,
the control, and everything that goes with it.
So, realizing all that
and I'm not gonna grovel for you because I'm bent in my back as it is.
-I understand. -Right.
So what I'd like to do if, uh, we could get one of the fine,
fine officers of the law to take a picture of you and me together
because I got my new suit on.
We're seeing eye to eye, and I just wondered maybe,
you and me take a little snapshot?
[Lawler] I told you, JR, he is really sucking up now. [chuckles]
[crowd chattering]
McMahon has completely broken his spirit.
I'd like to have the belt this way, all right?
-[Lawler] Why not put it on, Vince? -If you don't mind.
[JR] Might as well.
-Ain't that pretty? -[Lawler] What a corporate picture.
[JR] They'll probably be in the corporate Christmas cards this year.
Now, you know, the old Steve Austin…
The old "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
would probably tell you to take this camera and stick it up your ass.
-[crowd cheering] -[JR] Hey.
Tell him, Vince.
I know, but that was the old Stone Cold. Thank you.
That's the old Stone Cold. The new Stone Cold
wants you to take this camera and get the film developed
because this is the absolute
last time you will be ever see 'Stone Cold" Steve Austin
wearing a ridiculous suit like this son of a bitch I got.
[JR] Well, I knew it, I knew it, I knew it.
-[crowd cheering] -[Lawler] Wait a minute.
[JR] To hell with the corporate image.
[Lawler] Sorry, Vince.
-[JR] The Rattlesnake. -[Lawler shrieks]
[JR] Rattlesnakes don't make corporate pets.
[Lawler] What's he doing now?
You promised! What's going on up here?
I've been through hell.
You got to remember, son,
what you see is what you get with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
I ain't fancy. Am I a redneck from South Texas?
You're damn right, and I ain't gonna change for nobody.
[crowd cheering]
-[Lawler] Don't throw that suit away. -I've one last thing to say to you, Vince.
[Lawler] There goes the tie.
Like I told you before, I said it to someone else, I'll say it to you.
DTA. "Don't trust anybody."
Now, what I want you to do, is bow down for Stone Cold.
-[Lawler] Oh! -[crowd cheering]
Oh, my gosh. What?
[crowd cheering]
What has he done?
[crowd cheering]
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin don't change for nobody
and that's the bottom line
'cause Stone Cold said so.
["I Won't Do What You Tell Me" playing]
[Lawler] He hit McMahon right in Greenwich.
-[JR] Where? -He's gonna pay for it, I can assure you.
[JR] "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is not gonna change for anybody.
The Rattlesnake is The Rattlesnake.
He's a WWE Champion and don't anybody ever forget it.
[Lawler] He set McMahon up, you know he did.
[JR] Look at the-- Uh-oh, I don't like the look.
[Lawler] Austin hasn't heard the last of this, I can assure you.
-You're all right, Vince? -[JR] "Are you all right, Vince?"
-Why don't you go and help him? -Look out, he's-- No, no.
[JR] Why don't you go see how badly he's injured?
[Lawler] I'm sure there's a lot of swelling.
[JR] Why don't you go check it out? Maybe you'll get a raise.
Oh, we have not heard the last of this situation.
[Cole] He's hurting.
[JR] After that big, high-level meeting last week
in the Ivory Tower there in Stanford,
I think Vince thought he had everything under control.
You cannot control Steve Austin.
[Lawler] What about those useless cops? Tell them, fire them.
Why didn't you-- Why didn't you arrest that idiot?
I'm sure that "Stone Cold" Steve Austin will be arrested again in-- Shortly.
[crowd booing]
[JR] You got to wonder how the owner of the WWE is going to retaliate.
[Lawler] Oh, he's hurt.
[JR] And you got to wonder if he's going to retaliate tonight.
We're gonna find out.
[JR] Folks, welcome back to the War Zone.
Just moments ago, Vince McMahon thought he had
the corporately conformed Steve Austin.
I believe this is the first step. Tonight is the very first step
in perhaps you becoming the greatest WWE Champion of all time.
Because this is the absolute
last time you will ever see
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin wearing a ridiculous suit
like this son a bitch I got.
-You promised me. -[crowd cheering]
[Lawler] I couldn't believe that, JR.
You promised me.
[Lawler] He promised McMahon he will conform
and then look what he does.
[JR] I said it before, rattlesnakes don't make good pets.
-[Lawler] I'll tell you one thing. -[JR speaking indistinctly]
[Lawler] I feel sorry for McMahon,
I guarantee there's testicular damage there.
[JR] Well, I wouldn't know about that.
Maybe you should go check it out yourself. You're so concerned about it.
Ladies and gentlemen, let me remind you
the World Wrestling Entertainment In Your House Unforgiven,
it will be live, no doubt about it from Greensboro, North Carolina.
Proudly presented by 10-321, just dial it and save.
[crowd cheering]
[Lawler] McMahon will get him back. I promise you.
Let's get this straight.
DX, this ain't some bull… [bleep] …high school game,
where you're walking around the back, painting on those locker room walls.
If you got the balls to [bleep] with our motorcycles,
let's see if you got the balls to come out here,
tonight live on Raw and face the DOA.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Well, they challenged the DX, King.
[Lawler] There's a lot of talk about balls tonight.
I guarantee you one thing.
They'll be out here, and so will McMahon.
If you wonder what else is gonna happen here tonight,
We have seen "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and the owner of this company
had yet another altercation and, no, Stone Cold hasn't conformed.
And what about Dan "The Beast" Severn and what--
And DX has been raising heck all night long.
I can assure you, DX is not through raising heck because--
Don't think for one minute
that they're not gonna accept DOA's challenge.
They'll be out here. You'll see DX again.
Don't forget, we're also gonna see Marc Mero
taking on "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock.
And when you talk about The Marvelous, you gotta talk about Sable,
her rivalry with Luna has been well documented.
As a matter of fact, take a look at this.
What I want,
a special match with you, Ms. Sable.
Well, at Unforgiven,
the winner of the evening gown match
will be the one with the most clothes left on.
Luna, I've already kicked your ass
and it'll be my pleasure to do it again.
[alarm blaring]
[JR] Certainly a lot of firsts here in the WWE.
Luna on her way to the ring to wrestle a man,
the first ever mixed gender match in the WWE.
But, King, everybody is talking about Greensboro, North Carolina.
WWE Unforgiven In Your House on Sunday, April the 26th,
the first ever evening gown match.
And look at Goldust attacking Matt Knowles here.
It's very much like a tuxedo match.
[Lawler] Oh, yeah. I've seen a lot of tuxedo matches between two men.
And they get stripped down to, well--
I mean, they're all birthday suits, you know what I'm talking about?
[JR] This is supposed to be Luna against this young man.
And the bell has not sounded,
and Goldust is just whipping the heck out of Matt Knowles here.
[Lawler] He's trying to get him fired up.
Get him ready to face Luna.
It's a shade of the old, Andy Kaufman days, you know.
He used to love those inter-gender matches.
-Look at this. -[JR] I'll tell you what.
She is rugged individual, is Luna.
And remember that evening gown match in Greensboro at Unforgiven.
Whoever gets stripped down to their [clears throat] undergarments…
-[Lawler] Oh, yeah. -They will lose the match.
[Lawler] You know, let me just tell you this.
You're also talking about how popular Sable is
and Marc Mero is not the popular one.
Well, I'll tell you this, Sable's not so popular either
because I've taken a poll and not one person that I've talked to
wants to see Sable win that evening gown match.
[JR] Here comes Luna off the top with a headbutt.
Dangerously low,
Luna has hooked the leg, and with an assist from Goldust,
Luna has won this one very, very quickly
as she prepares for the evening gown match
at Unforgiven in Greensboro against Sable.
[Lawler] Well, that was very impressive.
[JR] Who will be stripped down to their bra and panties in Greensboro?
[JR] We'll find out.
[Lawler] You think Sable even wears bras and panties?
You ought to know, JR?
Did you catch The Oscars?
Jack went home with the prize again.
Thank you.
But, Mr. Nicholson,
you have nothing on Val Venis.
In my latest film
entitled As Hard as It Gets…
[chuckles] Ladies, let's just say,
I really rise to the occasion on this one.
[chuckles seductively]
Ladies, when I get up for a role,
I never come down.
It's all work.
And hey, maybe a little bit of play,
but hey, somebody's got to do it.
And ladies,
when Val Venis
enters the World Wrestling Entertainment…
[chuckles] Let's just say,
it'll be a scream.
[chuckling]
[rock music playing]
[crowd cheering]
[announcer] The following contest is scheduled for one fall…
[JR] We're back, ladies and gentlemen, in War Zone.
Here comes "Marvelous" Marc Mero and Sable.
And certainly we need to inform you, ladies and gentlemen,
we just found out that DX has gladly, readily accepted DOA's challenge,
and DX will face DOA right here tonight.
[Lawler] Oh, baby. That is gonna be big. I can't wait to see that.
And I can't wait to see that evening gown match either.
I promise you, not one person, not one single person is rooting for Sable--
Oh, look at this sign.
[JR] So DX and DOA will meet tonight.
That match, just announced, just moments ago.
[Lawler] And plus, The Undertaker is gonna be here.
At WrestleMania 14, I allowed you to have the spotlight,
so get the hell out of my face.
-[Lawler] Whoa. -[JR] What a jerk. What a jerk.
[Lawler] It's time for him to get the spotlight.
He wants those lights to be on himself when he beats Ken Shamrock here tonight.
-I don't blame him. -[crowd cheering]
[JR] Well…
Sable making her way back to the locker room.
Remember, Sable and Luna in the first ever evening gown match
down in Greensboro on Sunday, April 26th.
[Lawler] And Sable, stop by and give that guy with a sign a kiss.
He swears that's only a fever blister on his lip.
I'm telling you, nobody is rooting for Sable in that big evening gown match.
[announcer] And his opponent from Sacramento, California,
weighing in at 243 pounds,
"The World's Most Dangerous Man"
Ken Shamrock.
[JR] Ken Shamrock, another great athlete coming to the WWE
from the Ultimate Fighting world, much like Dan Severn
who we saw here earlier.
["The Ultimate" playing]
Shamrock won the Intercontinental title at WrestleMania
but his own temper got the better of him, King,
and the decision was reversed when Shamrock
refused to break the ankle lock submission
and, in the process, belly-to-belly suplexed about half the referee staff
in this company.
[Lawler] I don't think it's his temper, I think he's an idiot.
He snaps and he just goes haywire.
[JR] "Marvelous" Marc Mero, the former Intercontinental Champion,
using his boxing skills here in the early going.
And Mero misses a clothesline.
And Shamrock going to those body shots, hard rights and lefts.
And now, the-- Martial arts kick,
and down goes Mero.
[Lawler] Let me get this straight, JR.
DX has accepted the challenge of DOA, right?
-Exactly. -[Lawler chuckles] I don't know, man.
That's gonna happen tonight, right?
[JR] I guess it's gonna be a six-man tag match here tonight
with the restructured DX and DOA.
And a running knee lift by "Marvelous" Marc Mero
on "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock.
[Lawler] Well, after DX--
Well, let's face it. They urinated on the motorcycles of DOA.
Who knows what will happen next?
As a matter of fact, I heard that when 8-Ball saw the motorcycles,
-do you know what he said to Chainz? -No. What?
[Lawler] He said, "Which bike's mine and which is urine?"
[laughs heartily]
[JR] You're right tonight, aren't you?
[Lawler] This will be great. I can't wait for it.
[JR] Mero knocked down by Ken Shamrock.
And of course, Shamrock…
-[Lawler] Is cheating. -Oh, Shamrock now looking for that--
That armbar submission. Mero trying to block it.
We saw Dan Severn use this move earlier tonight.
And certainly Ken Shamrock's problems, his issues with The Rock and The Nation
are far, far from over.
Shamrock will not rest, King, until he either puts The Rock out of the WWE
or becomes the Intercontinental Champion.
[Lawler] I'll tell you what's far from over.
The situation between Vince McMahon and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
Do you think Austin's been arrested yet back there?
[JR] I haven't heard that. I-- We got to keep our eye on that situation.
Vince was certainly embarrassed here tonight at the hands of the WWE Champion
and you know that somewhere down the road,
the owner is going to retaliate.
[Lawler] You talk about embarrassment,
how embarrassed was The Undertaker at WrestleMania?
His little brother Kane pummeled him, right?
Go ahead and admit it, JR. You've never seen anything like it.
And… Oh, beautiful.
[JR] Shamrock going for the hurricanrana
but Mero blocked it right into a powerbomb.
A great move by Mero. And Mero needs to seize the moment here.
Take advantage and--
Well, this egomaniac, "Marvelous" Marc Mero
-was going for the TKO here. -[Lawler] Yes. Here it is.
[JR] Mero looking for the TKO on Shamrock.
[Lawler] Is that the World's Most Dangerous Man?
[JR] Oh, Shamrock blocks.
-[Lawler] Uh-oh, look out. -[JR] Belly-to-belly suplex.
And Shamrock really drill-- Wait a minute.
Here comes The Nation.
Shamrock sees The Nation coming.
-[Lawler] You better get out of there. -Shamrock's grabbing a chair.
-[Lawler] Wait a minute. -Shamrock's gonna grab a weapon.
He's gonna defend himself here against this gang.
[Lawler] Hey, The Rock's the chair-man.
[JR] Well, much like what happened to Faarooq earlier today,
The Nation may have ended Faarooq's career.
We saw that, the shocking footage earlier.
[Lawler] Shamrock must've seen it too.
[JR] Well, there's strength in numbers.
The Nation like a pack of wild dogs here
want to gnaw on Shamrock.
You think The Rock's gonna go one-on-one? I don't.
-Oh, come on. -[Lawler] Look at this.
[JR] From behind. there's the World's Strongest Man.
[Lawler] Uh-oh. Oh. Oh, man.
[JR] Big time belly-to-belly suplex by the 400-pound,
former Olympian Mark Henry.
[Lawler] A little taste of your medicine there, Shamrock.
[JR] The Rock can be a brave guy when the--
his adversary is lying on the mat and there's three or four guys--
[Lawler] Oh, my, no, no. Oh, and look at The Rock, he's taking charge.
He shouting and stretching, he's telling everybody what to do.
You know what he told me being in The Nation?
He said, "Unless you're the lead dog, abuse the same,"
-and he's proud of that view. -Look out here.
-He's the lead dog now. -D'Lo, what's he gonna do?
[JR] It's a frog splash by a near 300-pounder.
Shamrock's gonna be broken apart here.
-[Lawler] Give him a microphone. -[JR] There you go.
-Tell him, Rock. -[JR] Oh, "tell him, Rock."
"Tell him, Vince." You kiss up to everybody.
According to the People's Champ
and the ruler of the Nation of Domination,
this is a dawn of a new era.
This is a new nation and a new domination.
And let The Rock give you a little gift.
[Lawler] Ooh!
[JR] Another cheap shot by The Rock.
Let me tell you something.
Whether it'd be Shamrock, whether it'd be Faarooq,
there's gonna be some score settled.
And that's gonna be physical scores when it's done.
It's not gonna be pretty when it happens.
[Lawler] Look at all these other suits out here now.
[JR] Shamrock has just been busted apart here by The Nation.
Well everybody knows that one-on-one,
-Shamrock can beat The Rock. -[Lawler] What?
Then tell me why The Rock has the gold.
Tell me why The Rock is your Intercontinental Champion.
The Rock is your Intercontinental Champion
and their Intercontinental Champ,
as we all know, the best damn Intercontinental Champ is The Rock.
[JR] I tell you one thing, right here tonight, there's no doubt about it,
The Nation has sent Shamrock to school.
[JR] Welcome back to the War Zone.
Thanks very much for being with us here. Uh-oh.
-[bell tolling] -[crowd cheering]
The Phenom is about to join us for the first time since WrestleMania.
And I understand that via satellite,
we're also gonna be hearing tonight sometime
from Kane and Paul Bearer as well.
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
The Undertaker!
[crowd cheering]
[JR] Will you listen to the ovation
for the Prince of Darkness, the Phenom himself, The Undertaker?
["Rest In Peace" playing]
[Lawler] I'm surprised he's even able to walk after the beating that I saw.
You saw it too, JR, with your own two eyes,
the beating that his brother Kane delivered to him at WrestleMania.
It was unmerciful.
[JR] Nobody has ever physically assaulted The Undertaker
like Kane did at WrestleMania.
I tell you what any time you get a chance to see The Undertaker,
I hope you'll take advantage of it.
We're gonna be in Richmond, Virginia on April the 28th, ladies and gentlemen,
but before that WWE live in Springs, Pennsylvania next Wednesday.
Hershey, PA next Thursday night.
The new Paul Tsongas Arena in Lowell, Massachusetts on Friday, April the 17th.
A huge live extravaganza Saturday, April the 18th,
coming to The New Haven Coliseum.
Then on Sunday afternoon, April the 19th, in Springfield, Massachusetts,
a two o'clock start for the WWE.
[crowd cheering]
[Lawler] How does he do that?
[JR] There's nothing like seeing the WWE live.
We'll all be in Baltimore, May the 11th, tickets on sale now in Baltimore.
We're all coming to the Nashville arena, tickets on sale in Nashville right now.
It's a big event in Nashville at the 18th of May.
And tickets are on sale now in Pittsburgh for the King of the Ring.
Undertaker, at WrestleMania 14,
your body absorbed a horrific amount of punishment
when you faced your brother, Kane.
On April 26th at Unforgiven,
would your body be able to go through that punishment one more time?
First things.
What happened at WrestleMania,
is Kane found out
that I'm not just his brother
but I am the Lord of Darkness.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] That was a slobberknocker.
[Lawler] That's debatable.
And Kane, as big and as strong as you are,
you did give me the beating
like no one else ever has.
But what you have to realize
is that the soul
powers the body.
Your soul is unpure,
and mine is and you were defeated.
[JR] What about this Inferno Match we've been hearing?
When Paul Bearer issued the challenge right here last week,
he spoke of a match at Unforgiven in which the ring will be surrounded by fire.
[Lawler] Yeah. That's it.
-I can only imagine what that will entail. -[Lawler] Fire. Fire.
But I know that there are many that do not want you
to accept Paul Bearer's challenge for Unforgiven.
What we have are desperate men
resorting to desperate actions.
But what you have to realize is, Kane,
just like when we were children,
I beat you at will,
and whether there's fire around the ring,
fire in the ring,
fire on me,
when it's all said and done,
at Unforgiven,
when you're looking up at your brother
and your body is set on fire…
[crowd cheering]
…it will truly be the beginning
of your eternal damnation.
[crowd cheering]
[Bearer] Surprise, surprise, surprise.
-[JR] Uh-oh. -Déjà vu, Undertaker. Remember?
Just two weeks ago,
right here on this very spot
when you delivered your Academy Award-winning performance,
crying at the graveside of your poor dead parents.
Yes, Undertaker, the mother and father that you murdered,
the mother and father that shot out in a blaze of glory.
Yeah, déjà vu, Undertaker.
I will ensure that you die a slow,
agonizing death at In Your House Unforgiven.
First,
my Kane
will beat you senseless.
He'll pound your body into the cold hard ground!
[JR] That's his mother and father's grave site.
And then, Deadman,
the inferno,
he will set you ablaze.
-[JR] Oh, wait a minute. -Oh, yes, he will.
-[Lawler] What are they doing? -Oh, Undertaker,
then the icing on the cake,
the fire, the hot fire.
We will send you
straight to hell.
-[Bearer laughing maniacally] -[JR] Oh, no.
They're desecrating-- He's desecrating his own parent's grave.
[JR] Well, this crowd here is still in stunned silence
over the heinous desecration that we just witnessed
at the hands of Kane and Paul Bearer.
Well, that did go too far.
-["Are You Ready" playing] -[crowd cheering]
♪ You think you can tell us what to do? ♪
♪ You think you can tell us What to wear? ♪
♪ You think that you're better? ♪
♪ Well, you better get ready ♪
♪ Bow to the masters ♪
♪ Break it down ♪
[JR] Certainly the most controversial entity
in the entire World Wrestling Entertainment.
DX respects no one.
They respect nothing.
They will do anything to shock us and they have done that tonight.
Just like I said, Kane and Paul Bearer went too far,
but I think these guys might have gone too far tonight too.
[Lawler] I mean I'm sure they thought it was a great show
and I'm sure they were having fun
but it may come back to bite you on the rear end before this night's over.
[JR] All of our fans watching on TSN Canada,
thanks for being with us. By the way, folks,
this Saturday, tickets go on sale on Halifax
and Moncton for big live WWE events.
[Lawler] Moncton?
[JR] Halifax and Moncton, tickets on sale at the box offices this Saturday.
[Lawler] I'll just say this, if it's live and if it's the WWE,
you can't afford to miss it.
[JR] Well, this is gonna be a knock down drag out.
I could not believe, folks,
what happened earlier tonight.
As a matter of fact if you just joined us here, what happened--
Complete disrespect by DX on the motorcycles of the DOA.
[indistinct chatter]
[Lawler] Well, you know, this could just be considered fire prevention.
You're not supposed to have vehicles inside a building like this.
They're kind of hosing them down a little bit.
You're not supposed to be playing with it, Billy.
-[JR] Wait a minute. Here comes the DOA. -Whoa!
We're gonna get after them here.
-[bell ringing] -[JR] Six-man tag action.
[Lawler] I told you DOA is hot, they're going nuts. Look out.
[JR] Six-man tag action is under way.
And X-Pac has join us here at ringside.
[X-Pac] You got it right, huh, Jim.
[JR] I'll tell you what, you guys have infuriated the DOA.
-[X-Pac] Oh, puff. -All those bikes are pretty sacred.
All right. So, we took a leak on their motorcycles. Whoopdedoo!
[laughter]
Look, the motorcycles got peed on.
Now, these guys are peed off, aren't they?
-[X-Pac laughing] -[crowd chanting] DOA! DOA!
[X-Pac] Hey, King, first I just wanna say I've always been a big fan of yours,
-I just wanna say that. -I wanna tell you one thing.
-I'm a huge fan of DX. -[X-Pac] Thank you very much.
[Lawler] I want you guys to straighten things out here
in the World Wrestling Entertainment. They need it, believe me.
Well, that's what's gonna happen.
Let me take my sunglasses off of here.
[JR] Triple H, the leader of DX,
Billy Gunn, and the Road Dogg, and Chainz.
So it's the Road Dogg and Chainz starting it out here.
Challenge was made just a few minutes ago.
It was accepted quickly by DX and here we are.
-[Lawler] Uh-oh. -[JR] Brutal knock down by Chainz.
[X-Pac] Come on, Road Doggy dog.
[JR] Hard elbow by Chainz,
just driving it right in the heart of The Road Dogg here.
DOA infuriated, this is gonna get real, real physical, King.
[Lawler] Well, I think that the-- DX should've expected this. Oh!
[JR] Another Irish-- We've got a knock down
with the clothesline and look at-- Look at the Road Dogg.
[crowd cheering]
[Lawler] I think that DX just might have
possibly picked on the wrong group of individuals here tonight.
DOA, they're hot.
[JR] Well, there's no doubt that when you returned last week,
you have some pretty strong things to say to some folks in this business.
[X-Pac] I was just telling the truth. I was telling the truth, Jim.
[Lawler] The problem, X-Pac, is some people can't handle the truth.
A lot in the World Wrestling Entertainment can't handle the truth.
That's why there's so many people upset with DX.
They just don't like to-- They don't like people to tell them like it is.
[JR] Billy Gunn with a side headlock on, I think its 8-Ball, but it could be Skull.
Hard shoulder tackle, and down goes one-half of the WWE Tag Team Champions.
[Lawler] I'll tell you one thing, JR, I'm enjoying this.
And I know you are too, X-Pac,
but these guys are just beating the crap out of each other.
[JR] New Age Outlaws will defend the tag titles
against LOD 2000 in Greensboro
at the WWE Unforgiven. There's a reversal.
Swinging neckbreaker by Skull, he tags in 8-Ball.
[Lawler] Who do you think is gonna clean up those motorcycles, Skull or 8-Ball?
-[JR] And, uh-oh, look out here. -[Lawler] No. Oh!
[crowd cheering]
[JR] And a knock down, then clotheslines.
You take a look at these guys in the ring,
they're young, they're aggressive, and--
Especially when you focus on DX.
DX has never been younger,
they've never been stronger, there is the leader of DX,
the very cerebral, Triple H.
And again, Shawn Michaels has been--
"No comment," has been his response on his thoughts on the new DX,
this restructured DX.
[Lawler] I don't know about cerebral
but he's smarter than a tree full of elves, Triple H is.
[JR] Oh, look out here.
[Lawler] Oh. Yes, what a move.
[X-Pac] That was sweet, Billy. Give me a little--
[Lawler] Give me a little-- He's already in the ring.
[JR] There's a tag now. Triple H in the ring.
The European Champion,
and he had Chyna do some fighting for him earlier
in that ball bat incident with Owen Hart.
And, look, now he have Skull isolated from his corner
being triple teamed by DX.
[Lawler] The Cleveland Indians are 5 and 0, they might wanna hire Chyna.
She swings a pretty mean bat herself.
[JR] And look here, Skull fighting out of the corner.
[crowd cheering]
Helmsley going for the ride now.
And, oh, Helmsley! Oh, what a big move there.
And there is a tag to the Road Dogg.
Road Dogg in, head of steam.
[X-Pac] Yeah, put a little stank on it, Road Doggy dog.
[JR] So, obviously, you seem to be overwhelmingly ecstatic
about being back in the WWE
or are you just so happy about being in DX, what is it?
[X-Pac] Well, it's all of the above, Jim.
I mean it's easy to see that WWE is the place to be right now.
I mean, you know.
I did my time down south, you know, I'm back, you know, where I belong.
[JR] Right. Well, ladies and gentlemen,
this match will continue. We'll be right back.
[Lawler exclaims]
[JR] Triple H, now, being reversed in the Irish whip.
[Lawler] And 8-Ball-- Look out, Helmsley in trouble.
[JR] What a sidewalk slam and what a battle we've had
during the commercial break.
Six-man tag team action here on the War Zone.
DOA challenging DX.
[Lawler] And it's been non-stop and I can't believe that idiot
Chainz even came over here and tried to mess with X-Pac.
[JR] X-Pac has rejoined his comrades.
And right now both these men certainly will be well served to make a tag.
-[Lawler] Uh-oh, there we go. -[JR] Looks like Chainz made the tag.
And Chainz, now,
he is striking anything that moves.
All hell is breaking loose.
There goes The Road Dogg, up and over.
[crowd cheering]
Chainz, now, that big foot, right on the throat of Triple H.
[Lawler] It's payback time, I'm afraid.
[JR] Helmsley set for the ride, big foot to the face,
Helmsley in trouble.
DOA back in control here over D-Generation X.
And what a powerslam.
There's a cover, and Billy Gunn interrupted the count.
[Lawler] DX is, unfortunately, now paying the price for watering those motorcycles.
[JR] Reversal, the whip, high back body drop,
and Helmsley-- Wait a minute. Helmsley with a Pedigree.
Helmsley just drilled Chainz with a Pedigree.
-Hooks the leg-- -[Lawler] He got him!
-[bell ringing] -[JR] DX wins this thing.
["Are You Ready" playing]
-[announcer] Here are your winners… -[JR] Wait. It's not over.
…D-Generation X!
-[Lawler] Look at X-Pac. -[JR] X-Pac's got a chair.
-[Lawler] Boom, boom. -[bell ringing]
-[JR] Road Dogg just nailed Skull. -[Lawler] Look at this.
[JR] X-Pac just hit Chainz twice in the head.
[bell ringing]
DX said they were gonna raise hell tonight.
And look at-- Chyna, just took a cheap shot at Chainz.
[Lawler] DX has raised hell all night long and they're not through yet.
-It does not… -[Lawler] Watch this-- Oh!
[JR] It does not look good for the DOA.
DX, again, has proven to be very, very dominant.
[Lawler] Uh-oh, wait a minute. I'm getting a little picture here.
-I think they are gonna set Chainz up. -[bell ringing]
And they probably have little time to build it up again.
-Do you think they might water him down? -[JR] Oh, come on.
Come on, come on, and a piledriver right on the chair.
[Lawler] I think DX is gonna water him down.
[JR] Those steel chairs are very unforgiving to say the least.
Chainz, he's a tough guy, he's as tough as they come,
but he has been-- He's been hammered.
As we've said, there are strength in numbers. Duh.
What's going on here?
Skull and 8-Ball had been incapacitated.
[Lawler] They're gonna string up Chainz.
[JR] That's exactly what they did to Terry Funk last week with the steel cage.
[Lawler] Now he's history. They're gonna get rid of Chainz too.
[JR] Skull and 8-Ball are out, they're down and out.
-[Lawler] Oh! -And look at this.
[JR] Chainz can't defend himself.
DX has no conscience.
-[Lawler] Oh, my gosh. -They have no respect.
Get out of the way. Back up. Get out of the way.
-[JR] Wait a minute! -[Lawler] Whoa! Look out!
[crowd cheering]
-[JR] LOD 2000. -[bell ringing]
-In the ring. -[Lawler] They're nailing X-Pac.
[JR] Look-- LOD.
And LOD awake and back up.
They're fighting all over this-- The Oncenter here in Syracuse.
[Lawler] I'm telling you, all hell is breaking loose now.
-Get him X-Pac. -[crowd cheering]
[JR] DX fighting LOD and the DOA.
-[Lawler] Come on. Get him, X-Pac. -It is a war here.
[crowd cheering]
[JR] They're fighting all over this place.
[Lawler] It's war here. Billy, look out, look out. e.
