WWF Monday Night Raw: February 19, 1996

As usual I enjoy Sunny wearing a black bikini at the beginning of Raw where tells us that Raw contains material too hot for some and that viewer discretion is advised. Raw is from Cincinnati, Ohio with our guests Vince McMahon and Jerry "The King" Lawler as we are shown The Undertaker pulling Diesel underneath the ring to cost him the Steel Cage WWF Championship match last night at In Your House.

They kick off Raw with an Intercontinental Championship rematch from the Royal Rumble between the champion Goldust w/ Marlena against Razor Ramon. Marlena tries to blow smoke in Razor's face as he throws his toothpick at her.

Razor attacks Goldust at the start of the match. Razor rips off Goldust's gold robe and is about to hit him with the title belt only for the referee to stop him. Razor knocks him to the floor with a clothesline where Goldust is in the arms of Marlena.

Back in the ring, Goldust does his usual gay tactics only for Razor to spit at him and then attack him by going after his arm and slamming him. He quickly goes for the Razor's Edge only to be backdropped out of the ring by Goldust as we go to commercial. We come back to see Goldust put Razor in a sleeper hold as Razor escapes.

Razor stops Goldust on the top rope and superplex him. Razor catches Goldust and gives him a Fallaway Slam with authority as it sends Goldust over the top rope and out of the ring. Razor throws Goldust back into the ring where Goldust swings wildly at Razor. Razor ducks and picks him up and sets him on the top turnbuckle to give him the Back Superplex.

You know what this means? Razor's Edge!!! However, Goldust quickly leaves the ring and leaves with Marlena as they head to the dressing room to get counted out. Razor wins the match, but Goldust retains the title since the title can't changes hands on a count out. This feud is not over.

In fact, Razor gets on the microphone after the match and says he doesn't care about the title anymore, he just wants Goldust's ass!! Ok!! I thought you didn't swing that way Razor? He then tells Roddy Piper to let him have a street fight Goldust as he doesn't want his kids watch Goldust on TV and that since Piper has six kids himself, he would understand. Ok?!

They show an Ultimate Warrior advertisement and Vince McMahon wonders what Piper is up to. Paul Bearer then lets The Undertaker out of a casket. Dok Hendrix then recaps In Your House last night.

Next up is supposed to be The Bodydonnas vs. Aldo Montoya and Barry Horowitz. However, the recently reinstated Vader along with Jim Cornette come out as Vader absolutely mauls both Montoya and Horowitz as this match does not get going. McMahon mentions that Vader will take on Yokozuna at WrestleMania XII.

More clips of The Ultimate Warrior and his return to the WWF. Sunny is shown wearing a sexy red dress signing Happy Birthday Mr. President for Presidents Day. We are shown Mr. Backlund campaigning to be the President of the United States in the audience.

The Ringmaster w/ Ted DiBiase takes on Marty Jannetty. The Ringmaster has shaved his head. Vince McMahon tells us Jannetty has a new tag team called "The New Rockers" and will be part of the vacant WWF Tag Team Championship Tournament on Superstars.

Jannetty hits Ringmaster with a crossbody for two. Ringmaster gives Jannetty the Stun Gun and we go to commercial. Back from commercial with Ringmaster putting his knees up as Jannetty tries to splash him. Ringmaster then puts Jannetty in a STF and another submission hold.

Jannetty fights back with a boot to the face and a bulldog. He then hits a flying elbow and a knee lift. Jannetty goes for a back suplex only for the Ringmaster to flip out of it and lock on the Million Dollar Dream for the submission victory. McMahon says the Ringmaster has a "stone cold" look on his face.

Mankind is shown sitting in some dark basement or something. Mankind believes he is normal while everyone else believes he's abnormal. Mankind then is shown petting a rat named George. There is a vote for the Slammys for Blue Light Special and Best Buns.

The Undertaker w/ Paul Bearer takes on Tatanka w/ Ted DiBiase. DiBiase distracts Undertaker as Tatanka tries to attack Undertaker, only for Undertaker to hit him with a clothesline. Undertaker then chokes Tatanka in the corner. Tatanka fights back with a Samoan Drop. Diesel then walks to the ring carrying an ax and takes a cameraman to the back with him as we go to commercial.

When we come back, we are shown Diesel backstage destroying the Undertaker's casket with the ax as the cameraman was filming this. The Undertaker Chokeslams Tatanka and then gives him the Tombstone Piledriver for the 1-2-3 and the victory. Bearer shows Undertaker the jumbo tron where Diesel is destroying his casket. It looks like their WrestleMania match will be a Casket Match.

Now it's time for another edition of Billionaire Ted as we are shown Larry Fling Live on the BNN (Billionaire News Network). Larry says hi to all his girlfriends out there. First call: Randy from Sarasota who says he needs to do something about his thinning hair. If you see Randy Savage it looks awful. My take is how about cut it really short because the longer he tries to grow it, it looks worse and more thinning.

Anyway next call Terry from Tampa (Huckster) says he needs next Monday off because he was hit by a size seven women's shoe. Last caller is Jane from Hanoi (Ted's wife) who quickly hangs up on her. Larry asks Ted all kinds of questions for illegal stuff he's been accused of such as misleading shareholders and such. Ted can't speak and is sweating and drinking water. Next week on Larry Fling Live: the Huckster and the Nacho Man.

The Undertaker and Paul Bearer are upset over what had happened to the casket. Next week on Raw, Yokozuna takes on Owen Hart and British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith in a Handicap match. Diesel will be action as well as Jake "The Snake" Roberts, who takes on Isaac Yankem DDS. Plus there will be an interview with the two in the main event at WrestleMania: Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels.
