We kick off tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw with Hunter-Hearst Helmsley taking on Doink "The Clown." Vince McMahon announces that The Undertaker has a crushed face from the attack by King Mabel and Yokozuna last week and who knows if Undertaker will be able to wrestle. Helmsley makes quick work of Doink and beats him following the Pedigree,
Barry Horowitz is shown with his new best friend Hakushi talking baseball. He asks Hakushi who is the best home run hitter for the New York Yankees was. Hoping he would say Babe Ruth, Hakushi says Hank Aaron, as he is the all-time home run leader even ahead of Ruth. Horowitz hugs him.
Next up, the USWA Tag Team Champions PG-13 finally get their hands on the WWF World Tag Team Champions the Smoking Gunns. During the match, WWF President Gorilla Monsoon was on the split screen and forces Yokozuna to replace The Undertaker to take King Mabel at In Your House due to both men playing a part in taking The Undertaker out.
Jerry Lawler mentions an incident involving WWF Intercontinental Champion Shawn Michaels in Syracuse but does not go into much detail about it. The Smoking Gunns hit Wolfie D with the Sidewinder for the 1-2-3.
They show us an interview aired over this past weekend with Dok Hendrix, British Bulldog, and Jim Cornette. They brag about Bulldog pinning Diesel last week and Hendrix tells him the only reason he pinned him was because of Yokozuna leg dropping Diesel. Bulldog gets mad at Hendrix and vows to beat Diesel for the WWF Title at In Your House.
Next we are shown a promo with newcomer Ahmed Johnson.
Dean Douglas takes on jobber "Hot Bod" Joe Dorgan as Vince McMahon mentions Douglas will take on Shawn Michaels for the Intercontinental Championship in six days at In Your House. McMahon then mentions the Michaels-Syracuse incident again. Jerry Lawler wants to tell us about the incident.
McMahon says Michaels was attacked unprovoked by 10 thugs outside a bar in Syracuse, NY. Lawler says Michaels ran his mouth too much, but McMahon says that's not what happened. Michaels is on the phone with them telling us that he doesn't look or feel good but he will be at In Your House this Sunday. Douglas wins with a "Perfectplex."
We are on to the main event with Bret "The Hitman" Hart taking on Isaac Yankem DDS in a Steel Cage match. Lawler changed the lock on the cage door so Hart could not leave. Hart locks Yankem in the Sharpshooter, but there is no submission so Hart climbs the cage, only to be punched by Lawler.
Gorilla Monsoon comes down and points his finger at Lawler. Hart knocks Lawler down with a punch where officials put Lawler into a shark cage and raised it above the steel cage. Hart eventually climbs out of the cage and wins the match.
