WWF 1995: The New Generation

Diesel Power​
On November 26, 1994, Big Daddy Cool Diesel won the WWF Title by defeating Bob Backlund. Since then Diesel has become a fighting champion defeating many stars. Now as we head into the year 1995 at the Royal Rumble, The leader of the new WWF Generation Diesel will be defending his title against former WWF Champion Bret The Hitman Hart. Last week on the December 26, 1994 episode of Raw, Diesel humiliated Jerry the King Lawler on the King's Court and then Diesel turned his attention to Shawn Michaels who was doing commentary. Diesel said he's doing a lot better without HBK and Big Daddy Cool is going to be champion for a long time. HBK vows that he will win the Royal Rumble and if Diesel remains champion then HBK will take the title off him. This week on the first edition of Monday Night Raw for 1995, The Excellence of Excecution, Bret the Hitman Hart will be the guest on the King's Court.


The Road to the Royal Rumble continues
The Road to the Royal Rumble is certainly heating up and the crown jewel of the Million Dollar Corporation Lex Luger is one of the odds on favourite to win the Royal Rumble. Last year's co-winner Lex Luger has been on a roll ever since he joined The Million Dollar Corporation at SummerSlam by defeating Tatanka. Then at Survivor Series when The Million Dollar Team faced Tatanka's team, Luger was the sole survivor. Now Luger heads into 1995 and he has set his sights on winning the Royal Rumble again. At the Rumble, former Rumble winner the mighty Yokozuna will also be returning back to action in the Rumble match. Yokozuna will make his return next week to Monday Night Raw on the King's Court. We will also see the return of the voodoo master Papa Shango. Following Survivor Series, Owen Hart continued his feud with The British Bulldog and they will square off at The Royal Rumble.

The new tag team champions The Heavenly Bodies have been on a roll ever since they won the tag team tournament 2 weeks ago when they defeated The Smoking Gunns. The Bodies nailed Bart with Jim Cornette's tennis racket across the neck putting Bart out of action for some time. Bart will be back at The Royal Rumble as the Smoking Gunns will receive their rematch at The Royal Rumble.

Clowning Around​
In 1994 Doink the Clown who made kids laugh ended up making kids cry again. It all began when Doink lost a match against Yokozuna in June. Doink was out of action for a month and when he returned, Jerry Lawler started stirring up trouble between Doink and Dink on The King's Court. Lawler thinks Dink has held Doink back, he used to be funny when he made kids cry but when he made kids laugh Doink became a failure. A few weeks later Doink started behaving strangely in matches and then Doink and Dink were again guests on The King's Court. Doink ended up turning on poor Dink and that was the end of Dink. Doink ended up going back to his sadistic ways playing sick pranks on fans and superstars. Following SummerSlam, Doink would progressively become more and more evil. Doink came down to the ring during an Undertaker match and started staring down Paul Bearer. Doink sprays something in Paul Bearer's eyes and starts laughing up the ramp wildly. Over the next few weeks Doink freaks Paul Bearer out at ringside during Undertaker's matches causing The Undertaker to lose some matches via count out. Doink managed to steal the urn off Paul Bearer and put it in a box. Doink even got involved in Undertaker's match at Survivor Series against Yokozuna by appearing in the casket, he tried to use the urn by nailing The Undertaker with it but it backfired as Doink was chased away by Chuck Norris. Paul Bearer now has the urn again. The next night Doink then performs a trick and makes Paul Bearer disappear from a box as Doink laughs wildly.

Over the next few weeks Doink continued to play mind games against The Undertaker. There would be promos of Doink in a circus and Undertaker in the cemetery sending a warning message to Doink. Doink is a guest again on Jerry Lawler's King's Court. Doink gives the reason why he's been messing around with The Undertaker. Doink says Undertaker is a phony, everyone thinks Undertaker can not be hurt, he thinks he's not human and Doink said he enjoyed playing pranks on The Undertaker. He enjoys playing mindgames with The Undertaker. Doink said Undertaker is not the most dangerous man in the WWF because the most dangerous man in the WWF is Doink. Not only is he unpredictable, he can be funny and he can be sadistic. Later that night in an Undertaker match, Doink came down to ringside and played another prank by throwing water in Undertaker's hat. Doink starts laughing wildly. Undertaker got counted out as he went after Doink who managed to escape.

The following week Doink again interferes during an Undertaker match but Undertaker manages to get his hands on Doink. Undertaker tries to pull Doink's mask off until a second Doink appears and saves Doink. The two Doinks assaulted The Undertaker. Jerry Lawler who is on commentary calls it an illusion. The following week President Jack Tunney told Doink that last year he made a ruling that there will only be one Doink. He warned Doink if he sees another Doink in the WWF then Doink will be suspended. He also announced that Doink will face The Undertaker at The Royal Rumble. Later on during a Doink match, Paul Bearer made his return as he was reunited with The Undertaker. Doink was so stunned and the lights went out and The Undertaker was right behind him. Undertaker dropped Doink with a tombstone and said at The Royal Rumble, Doink will Rest In Peace. Last week on Raw, Doink vows that he will get revenge on The Undertaker. He will show The Undertaker the real dark side. Both men excel in playing mind games and what a showdown this will be at The Rumble.

TV Shows​
WWF Mania has been cancelled and The Action Zone is a highlights show recapping Raw, Superstars and Challenge. Only one tv show will be written out which will be Raw. The other shows (Superstars and Wrestling Challenge) will be posted as quick results and if needed I will mention the important notes from the shows. PPVs will be in full detail.

I'm back with a new btb. 1995 was one of the worst years in WWF history. Terrible ppvs, horrible gimmicks and the WWF was running on Diesel power. Yep that one year long reign. Financially it was just a bad year for the WWF. I've decided to book the year 1995 by improving it. Expect to see monthly In Your House ppvs being added to the ppv schedule following WrestleMania. In my backstory I've made a few changes as Luger and Doink go heel, they were way better as heels. I really wanted to see an Undertaker/Doink feud, so I'm booking it in my btb. Tatanka remains face, his heel run was terrible. Also Kwang would turn face, Nikolai Volkoff would be kicked out of the Corporation and he turns face. I liked The Kama supreme fighting machine gimmick but I've decided to bring Papa Shango back instead, you will soon find out why in this thread. Newcomer Man Mountain Rock will be making his ppv debut at the Rumble. The Women's division has been scrapped as Alundra Blayze & Bull Nakano have been released. Sid will make his WWF return in February. I disliked the 1995 Royal Rumble match, very short Rumble, way too many jobbers. Expect to see a better version of the Rumble match in this thread. The first show will be up soon, have fun reading.

Match 1 | Shawn Michaels vs Tatanka
The bell rings and Michaels starts taunting Tatanka. Shawn's mocking Tatanka's rain dance and that's already making Tatanka mad as Michaels hides behind the official. Both men finally lock up Tatanka and Michaels exchange wrist locks until Tatanka sends Michaels to the ropes and delivers an armdrag and follows up with a dropkick.

Winner: Shawn Michaels
Following the match, Jim Cornette interviewed Shawn. Shawn states that he will not be upstaged by anyone especially Diesel. He makes one thing clear, The Heartbreak Kid put the Cool in Big Daddy. At WrestleMania, everyone's gonna find out why Shawn Michaels is the wrestler of the 90s.

WrestleMania Report with Todd Pettingill. We hear comments from Diesel. Diesel talks about the WrestleMania press conference tomorrow and he's very excited to be there tomorrow. He knows that Shawn and Sid are gonna be there and Diesel simply can't wait till WrestleMania. Diesel sends a message to Shawn and Sid and states that they ain't seen nothing like they're gonna see at WrestleMania. Big Daddy Cool's dominated the WWF since he walked into the door and at WrestleMania, he's going to show Shawn what Diesel power is all about.

Double J's singing debut on the King's Court
Jerry Lawler is in the ring insulting the fans. He wants them to show some respect because tonight they get to witness a historic moment on The King's Court because it's the singing debut of Double J. Lawler says it's a big night for Double J and we even have a member from the press down at ringside and he tells the guy to get as much camera footage as he can of Double J. Vince McMahon states that Jeff Jarrett and Road Dogg will face The 123 Kid and Bob Backlund this week on Superstars. Lawler then introduces Jeff Jarrett who comes down to the ring with Road Dogg to huge heat. Before Jarrett begins, Lawler talks about the battle royal last week and how The 123 Kid eliminated Jarrett. It simply isn't fair on Double J and what does Double J have in store for the 123 Kid? Jarrett tells The King he's going to embarrass The Kid. Last year he was supposed to be wrestling at WrestleMania but his match got cancelled, what a travesty. Him and The Kid were on opposing teams but this year Double J's match will not get cancelled. This year him and The 123 Kid will get to be on WrestleMania in a match and he's challenging The 123 Kid to a match. As for tonight, it's a huge night for Double J. He already showed all these fans why he's the world's greatest wrestler by winning at Saturday Night's Main Event. Now tonight he's gonna show them why he's the world's greatest singer and entertainer. Lawler leaves the ring and takes his seat at the announce table to let Jarrett have his moment of glory.

Road Dogg checks to see if everything was working. Road Dogg getting all tuned up. Jarrett wastes time and gets booed. Road Dogg tells the fans to show some respect, they've all been waiting for this moment. The mic doesn't work so Jarrett wants a time out to tune up and wastes more time as the crowd continues to boo Jarrett. The mic is now working and the camera man from the press gets on the apron. Double J invites him in the ring so the camera man can snap photos of Double J singing. Jarrett wants the lights out and the spotlight on him. Jarrett wants music to played while he sings and as soon as the music plays, the camera man takes off his disguise and it's THE 123 KID and the crowd is going nuts. What a disguise from The Kid and The Kid jumps Road Dogg from behind and nails Jarrett with a roundhouse kick. The 123 Kid throws Road Dogg over the top rope. The Kid then destroys the equipment in the ring and smashes the guitar and throws it outside as Jarrett and Road Dogg are fuming down the entrance way. The Kid grabs the mic and taunts Double J by doing his strut. The Kid throws the hat, sunglasses and fake beard on The Road Dogg. The Kid accepts Jarrett's challenge for WrestleMania. He's going to create a special WrestleMania moment of his own when he pins Jarrett in the ring 1, 2, 3.

Match 2 | The Undertaker vs King Kong Bundy
King Kong Bundy came down to the ring with Ted Dibiase. Bundy was angry that he was bodyslammed on Wrestling Challenge by The British Bulldog. Bundy grabs a mic and explains that he's in a bad mood so he now wants to fight anyone who's got the guts to face him. The lights went out and The Undertaker's music hits. It looks like The Undertaker has accepted Bundy's challenge and the crowd is going nuts. Ted Dibiase fires Bundy up. Bundy and Undertaker have a staredown. Cornette believes that The Undertaker won't be able to give Bundy the tombstone, it's just not going to happen. This is the first time ever that these two men are going at it. Slugfest to start this match off, Bundy hits Undertaker with a headbutt and whips Undertaker to the corner and ran into a boot. Bundy is staggered here as Undertaker tries a clothesline but Bundy doesn't go down. He tries again, Bundy ducks a clothesline, Undertaker off the ropes and hits a diving clothesline taking Bundy down as Bundy rolls out of the ring. Undertaker follows and stalks Bundy outside the ring, they brawl outside until Bundy reverses an irish whip and sends Undertaker into the steel steps. Bundy sends Undertaker back in and whips Undertaker to the corner. Bundy drives some shoulders to the gut of The Undertaker.

Bam Bam who's not here tonight must be watching this at home and he must be enjoying what he sees. Bundy drops a big elbow and got a 2 count. Bundy now off the ropes but Undertaker nails him with a throat thrust. Undertaker tries getting his hands on Dibiase but Bundy hammers Undertaker from behind. He rams Undertaker's head into the turnbuckle but it has no effect on Undertaker and Undertaker gives Bundy an evil look. Bundy is shocked so he comes charging in at Undertaker and eats boot and Undertaker scoops Bundy up and slams him. Undertaker does the rope walk and lands a right hand across the neck of Bundy. Undertaker tries an irish whip but Bundy reverses and sends Undertaker into the corner and Bundy squashes The Undertaker with an avalanche. Bundy hits a splash but doesn't go for the pin. Dibiase wants Bundy to do this again so Bundy hits another splash. Dibiase says one more time and as Bundy is about to hit the splash, Undertaker sits up as Bundy misses. Undertaker then grabs Bundy by the throat and delivers a chokeslam and pins Bundy for the 3 count to win the match. Dibiase can't believe it. Undertaker celebrates his victory with Paul Bearer and Dibiase is very upset with Bundy.
Winner: The Undertaker
Following this match, Bob Backlund came down to ringside and wants an answer from Owen Hart. He's willing to take on Owen in any match, whatever the stipulation is. Backlund said his patience is running out and wants an answer right now. Owen Hart came out near the entrance way with a mic in his hand. Owen has decided when he will face Backlund and he announces that he will face him at WrestleMania. Owen wants Backlund out of the WWF because he is not what the new generation is about. Owen then explains the stipulation for their match. As he's putting his title on the line, he wants Backlund to put his career on the line at WrestleMania that's if Backlund is willing to take that risk. If Backlund agrees we get the match but if he doesn't agree then no match. Come on Bob, title vs career, what do you say? Backlund tells Owen that he's not a coward and he's going to accept Owen's challenge. Big pop for Backlund. Backlund tells Owen that he does not plan on retiring early, it's a fresh new start for him and he's going to take Owen's Intercontinental title and he's going to bring prestige back to the Intercontinental title. Owen stares Backlund down and what a huge match this is going to be at WrestleMania. Can Bob Backlund win the Intercontinental title or will that be Backlund's last match ever?

That could be a mistake of not putting away Doink here. Bret tries bringing Doink back up but Doink surprises him with an inside cradle and got a 2 count. Both men back up get into a slugfest and Doink rakes Bret's eyes and hits a DDT and got a 2 count.

Vince McMahon then talks about a newcomer that will be arriving soon in the WWF and his name is Hunter Hearst Helmsley. A vignette is aired of Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Hunter talks about class and civility. He thinks people like Tatanka, The Headshrinkers, The Smoking Gunns have no class. Now he's coming to the WWF to show everyone real class. He's come here to become a star. He's going to show everyone why he is the future of the WWF.

Lex Luger vs The British Bulldog | Super Pose Down
Vince McMahon is in the ring. We have 5 judges here who will be deciding the winner of this match. Lex Luger comes down first with his manager Ted Dibiase. A clip is shown of Luger's debut at Royal Rumble 93, the unveiling of The Narcissist. Ted Dibiase got on the mic and explains that things haven't gone well so far for him but Bam Bam will soon send The Undertaker back to death valley and there will be no return for him. Now it's time for Lex Luger to make this night great for The Corporation so he tells Vince to call out The British Bulldog because he's going to lose. The British Bulldog then came out to a big reaction. Vince went over the rules so lets get the posedown underway. The first pose is the double bicep pose. Luger poses first but Bulldog poses along with him and Bulldog clearly gets the louder reaction. Lex tells Bulldog not to steal his thunder and they will not be posing at the same time otherwise The Bulldog will get disqualified. The fans boo Luger, Luger wants to have all the glory to himself. The next pose is best abs. Luger wastes a lot of time here, he puts oil on as his theme plays but he hasn't started posing yet. Bulldog is waiting and now Luger poses. He's taking his time. Now it's Bulldog's turn and Bulldog again gets a loud reaction. Finally the 3rd and final pose is most muscular but before Luger begins, he starts warming up by doing push ups. Fans are booing Luger and The Bulldog gets frustrated with the delay and wants Luger to get on with it. Vince tells Luger he will get disqualified if he continues to delay everyone. Luger gets angry and starts posing. Now it's Bulldog's turn and again he gets a loud reaction.

Now it's time for the judges to make their decision. Judge #1 has voted for Luger. #2 votes for Luger. Bulldog needs to make a comeback here. Judge #3 votes for Luger, #4 for Luger and # 5 for Luger. Wow it's a clean sweep for Luger as Bulldog didn't even get a vote. Luger celebrates his victory and poses. Vince said he can't believe it but here's your winner Lex Luger. Luger grabs the mic off Vince and said what do you mean you can't believe it. The judges just made their decision and he won fair. Dibiase starts laughing as Luger and Dibiase taunt the Bulldog. Bulldog takes the mic off them and he knows that he's just been robbed. He accuses Dibiase of paying off these judges. Bulldog thinks it's a set up, Dibiase's paid them off for sure. Bulldog asks the fans to decide who the winner is and they clearly vote for Bulldog. Dibiase said these morons have no say tonight and it's official Lex Luger has won. Luger said this is fair and he's won. He's just embarrassed the Bulldog and he's going to embarrass him again next week in the arm wrestling contest. One of the judges tells The Bulldog not to be a sore loser so Bulldog ends up attacking him. Luger and Dibiase bail out of the ring as Bulldog sends all the judges flying out of the ring. Bulldog taunts Luger and Dibiase as Luger start laughing. Dibiase yells everybody has a price for the Million Dollar Man, hahahaha!!! Vince said this was a set up all along, he thanks everyone for joining us as Raw goes off the air.

Vince McMahon interviews Razor Ramon. This coming Monday on Raw, he teams with Bret to face the dangerous team of Doink and Papa Shango. Vince asks Razor this will be the first time ever that he will team with Bret. Both men are huge fan favourites but will they get along when they team up this week since they will go on to face each other at WrestleMania? Razor said he had no problem teaming up with The Hitman, he came down to help Bret out because not only was it a 2 on 1 situation against Bret, he wants Bret healthy for WrestleMania. He wants Bret at his very best. Razor talks about how he is working very hard to prepare for his match against The Hitman at WrestleMania. This is going to be the biggest match of his life. He's learned from his mistakes in the past and over the past 2 years The Hitman has been the #1 guy. He's been the superstar of the year for the past 2 years but now it's Razor Ramon's time. Razor shows footage from WrestleMania 10 where him and Bret made history. Razor won the ladder match while Bret won the WWF Title. The post match celebration was shown of Bret's victory and how all the stars came down to show their respect. Razor then lifts Bret up on his shoulders and Razor points at the video wall and states that right there was the sign. A sign where it shows that a year later, he's going to face The Hitman, it was destiny. It goes to show that The Himan will be passing the torch to the bad guy. Razor's music hits and Razor motions for the WWF Title.

Jim Ross interviews Yokozuna and Hakushi. Jim Cornette said his team will be watching The Smoking Gunns later on in action. Cornette claims that Yoko and Hakushi are the most impressive team of all time, no one can match the power of Yokozuna and the speed of Hakushi. These cowboys must be terrified of them. Yokozuna and Hakushi only recently became a team and they proved their dominance by beating many of the top teams in the battle royal. Cornette mocks his former team, The Heavenly Bodies. Now when The Heavenly Bodies get healed up, Yokozuna and Hakushi will face them and The Heavenly Bodies will stand no chance against Yokozuna and Hakushi. Cornette then says The Smoking Gunns better enjoy their time as champions now because after WrestleMania, they won't be ever getting the belts back.

The same vignette of Hunter Hearst Helmsley that was aired from Raw was shown.

We hear pre-recorded comments from Lex Luger. Lex talks about the third and final contest coming up this Monday on Raw. The first contest between Lex Luger and The British Bulldog was a tie since both men managed to body slam their opponents. Lex brags about beating The Bulldog so easily in the super posedown. Since he's up 1-0 he's going to win the series of the contests by defeating The Bulldog in the arm wrestling contest tomorrow night on Raw. Lex claims that he has much more strength than The Bulldog and he's going to add more misery for The Bulldog when he humiliates him tomorrow night.

The Smoking Gunns defeated Aldo Montoya and Bob Holly. After the match both teams shaked hands. Hakushi and Yokozuna came down near the entranceway to scout their opponents and following the match they stared down The Smoking Gunns.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

The Road to Wrestlemania is going well. I enjoyed the last few episodes of Raw and the Mania card is shaping up well.

-Bret and Razor still being respectful, i can't see that lasting all the way to Mania. Interested to see if i am right but either way this still looks set to be a huge main event.

-I am looking forward to seeing how you deal with new the new superstars like Hunter Hearst Helmsley and Savio Vega, especially with Savio debuting on the next Superstars.

-The challenges between Luger and Bulldog have been fun. Is a different way of booking the build up for a big match but i think it is making me more interested to see what happens when Mania finally comes around and they have to face off in the ring.

-With the announcement that Bob Backlund vs Owen Hart will be title vs career at Mania i think this looks set to be the end of Backlund's career in your BTB.

-I thought 123 Kid may interrupt the Double J concert however i did not expect him to be the cameraman! fun segment and should be a good match at Mania.

-You seem to be pushing Hakushi and Yokozuna, i can see the Smoking Gunns having the Tag Titles for too much longer.

This is one of my favourite BTBs and looking forward to reading more of your work.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

Thanks for the feedback. :) I'm glad you enjoy this thread and following WrestleMania, the shows will start to get a lot better.

WWF NEWS
The WrestleMania 11 press conference was held on February 28 in New York City. Footage will be shown on the next episode of Raw. WWF Champion Bret Hart, Razor Ramon, Shawn Michaels, Sycho Sid, Ted Dibiase and Vince McMahon attended the conference. NFL star Lawrence Taylor was also at the conference. Following the conference, Vince McMahon got a word with Lawrence Taylor who's going to be at WrestleMania. Taylor talks about NFL star Waltor Payton who made an appearance last year at SummerSlam and he was in the corner of Razor Ramon. Well Taylor said he's a friend of Waltor Payton and now Taylor's going to be in the corner of a friend of Razor Ramon. That's right, he's talking about The 123 Kid. As Jarrett has The Road Dogg to back him up, Taylor's going to back The 123 Kid up. If Road Dogg sticks his nose in the match then he's going to run into LT.

Rowdy Roddy Piper will be back soon for a special return of Piper's Pit. Piper will be at WrestleMania and expect to see Piper in an enforcer role for a match. It's likely that Piper will be an enforcer for The Undertaker vs Bam Bam match. Undertaker is a marked man and the last time an Undertaker match had an special enforcer was at Survivor Series 94.

With 7 big matches already announced for WrestleMania, expect to see one more match being added late to the card. Last year a 10 man tag was expected to take place at WrestleMania 10 but it was pulled from the card. Expect to see one taking place this year.

Hunter Hearst Helmsley will be making his WWF debut on the March 13 episode of Monday Night Raw.

The Bushwhackers, Well Dunn and Nikolai Volkoff have been released from their contracts.

The night after WrestleMania, Monday Night Raw will debut a brand new set.

When Wrestling Challenge finishes on March 26, there are no plans to replace the show. Raw will not become a 2 hour show. Instead you'll get to see Raw and Superstars having a lot of better matches following WrestleMania XI. WrestleMania XI will kick start a brand new era in the WWF.

Razor and Bret get a huge reaction from the fans as they celebrate their win in the ring. Two tremendous competitors who have a lot of respect for each other will be facing each other at WrestleMania, what a match up it's going to be.
Winners: Bret Hart and Razor Ramon

Footage is shown from the WrestleMania press conference. Bret Hart says he's looking forward to stepping in the ring against Razor. This is the Hitman's third straight WrestleMania that he's headlining. It's going to be one of his toughest matches ever and Bret believes he's going to be come out on top. Razor says he's ready for WrestleMania and he's going to leave with the biggest gold, the WWF Title. He's going to lead the WWF into a brand new era. Diesel then discussed his match against Shawn Michaels. Diesel's been waiting since Survivor Series and at WrestleMania he's going to get the job done. Shawn Michaels then vows to steal the show at WrestleMania and he's going to prove why he's the wrestler of the 90s. Michaels then looked at Bret Hart and Razor Ramon and told them no matter who the champion is after WrestleMania, he's going to be the next in line for a title shot. Lawrence Taylor was also there and he had a great time.

We then go to Todd Petingill for the WrestleMania Report. Todd gives us breaking news that Lawrence Taylor who's going to be there at WrestleMania has volunteered to be in the corner of The 123 Kid at WrestleMania. We hear comments from The 123 Kid. The 123 Kid wishes Bob Backlund good luck in his important match at WrestleMania and The Kid has decided to bring in NFL star Lawrence Taylor to watch his back. Last year Razor had Walter Payton is his corner and it worked so well for Razor. Lawrence Taylor then appears and Taylor can't wait for WrestleMania. He's very excited to be in the corner of the 123 Kid. It's the NFL butting heads with the WWF, that's what it will be if Road Dogg decides to stick his nose in that match. Kid says he can't wait for WrestleMania, he's so excited and now it's more special that Lawrence Taylor's in his corner. Taylor said he watched Double J's failed music performance on tv and the best part was at the end when The Kid destroyed the equipment. Now he can't wait to see The Kid beat Double J at WrestleMania.

Following the match, Jean Pierre pulls out the handcuffs and handcuffs Holly. Oh no, Pierre gets his shock stick and zaps Holly. Pierre gets booed heavily and Pierre raises his arms in victory.
Winner: Jean Pierre Lefite
A new vignette is aired for Hunter Hearst Helmsley. This week Helmsley takes shots at people like Aldo Montoya, Bob Holly, Man Mountain Rock, The Smoking Gunns and Duke the Dumpster Droese. He's appalled to see these people in the WWF, a guy wearing a jockstrap, a racing car driver, a fat overweight man who thinks he can play the guitar, two cowboys, and a smelly garbage man. None of these guys have class. Helmsley boasts about how rich he is. He's young, handsome, he's even got all the ladies after him. Hunter claims that he certainly has all the qualities to become a top star here in the WWF. Next week when he arrives here in the WWF, he's going to prove that he's the most talented, the most gifted superstar that's ever stepped foot in the World Wrestling Federation.


Match 3 | WWF Intercontinental Title Match | Owen Hart (c) vs Aldo Montoya
Aldo Montoya's in the ring as his music plays. The Intercontinental Champion Owen Hart comes down and goes over at ringside and notices that his nephew Harry has Bret Hart's shades on. Owen is disgusted and tells Diana that he's better than The Bulldog and Bret. The match begins with Owen and Aldo locking up and Owen knees Aldo to the gut. Owen fires off a snap suplex and gets a 2 count. Owen sends Aldo to the corner, Aldo puts the break on with a leapfrog and Aldo connects with a dropkick.

Owen has the chance to finish Aldo off but no he wants to give Montoya more punishment. Owen whips Montoya to the ropes and delivers a roundhouse kick. Owen then locks in the sharpshooter and Montoya submits. Owen making quick work of Montoya. Following the match, Owen refused to let go off the sharpshooter and Bob Backlund ran down for the save. Backlund whips Owen off the ropes and delivers a back body drop and follows up with a clothesline sending Owen to the floor. Backlund then goes outside and grabs Owen's title attempting to swing at Owen but Owen manages to escape and backs up the entranceway. Backlund gets in the ring and raises the belt in the air as if he's become the champion. Owen wants the ref to get his belt back and Backlund taunts Owen with the title. The belt is returned to Owen and Backlund motions for the Intercontinental title.
Winner: Owen Hart



Arm Wrestling Contest | The British Bulldog vs Lex Luger
A table is set up in the ring and Vince McMahon is in the ring with a referee. Who's the strongest man in the WWF, we're about to find out. Here comes Lex Luger who's coming down with his manager Ted Dibiase. Luger notices Diana Smith in the crowd and Luger starts flexing his muscles and poses infront of Diana. Luger gets in the ring and then The British Bulldog comes out to a big reaction. With Luger 1-0 up in the contest, can The Bulldog tie this series up. Both men have a staredown. Vince McMahon tells both men to get seated but Lex brags about his win last week and thinks it's best if The Bulldog doesn't go ahead with it. It would be humiliating for The Bulldog to lose tonight since his wife and son are here. Bulldog said he's going to make his wife and son proud and tells Luger lets get on with this. Both men get seated and the ref checks to see if both elbows are square on the table. We're about to begin but Lex gets up and wants to warm up. Lots of stalling from Luger. Luger tells Harry not to look at the Bulldog as a role model, now when Harry grows up if he wants a great body he needs to be like Lex Luger. Luger gets huge heat for this and The Bulldog wants to get his hands on Luger but Vince calms him down. Vince tells Luger this is not the posedown, last week Lex delayed us by wasting a lot of time and now he's doing it again. The referee warns Luger that he's not like the judges last week and if Luger decides to waste time he's going to get disqualified. Dibiase complains and the referee tells Dibiase if he interrupts this then he'll be out of here.

Here we go, arm wrestling time, the arms are locked in. Luger has the early advantage pulling down on Bulldog's wrist but Bulldog starts making a comeback. Dibiase starts talking on the mic trying to get behind Luger which seems to put Bulldog off and puts Luger back in control. Luger almost has Bulldog beat but Diana and the fans get behind The Bulldog and The Bulldog makes his comeback as he almost has Luger's arm down. Luger's face is turning red as he's fighting to stay in this and Bulldog brings Luger's arm down and The Bulldog wins. What an ovation for The Bulldog. The Bulldog taunts Luger. Bulldog invites Diana and Harry in the ring to celebrate. Luger is furious and wait a minute from behind, Luger with a cheapshot. Luger and Dibiase put the boots to The Bulldog. What a poor sport Luger is. Dibiase instucts Luger to slam Bulldog through the table. Diana pleads with Luger not to do this. Luger changes his mind and turns his attention to Diana. Luger starts flirting with Diana and Diana ends up slapping Luger. Bulldog back up fights back but Dibiase with a cheapshot. Luger puts the rebel rack on The Bulldog. Dibiase hands over Luger a £100 note, that's right a £100 note instead of his usual 100$ bill. Afterall he is The Million Dollar Man. Luger shoves a £100 note down The Bulldog's throat. What an insult, more humiliating that Dibiase uses British money on England's British Bulldog. Dibiase starts laughing. Diana goes to check on The Bulldog and poor Harry is crying as Luger and Dibiase celebrate up the aisle.



Match 4 | The Undertaker vs Henry Godwinn
Henry Godwinn's in the ring waiting for his opponent, The Undertaker. Undertaker came down to a huge reaction. The match begins and Henry and Undertaker have a staredown. Henry attacks first but it has no effect on Undertaker. He tries again but Undertaker blocks and Undertaker with a boot to the gut. Undertaker with a throat thrust and now Undertaker backs Godwinn to the corner. Undertaker chokes Godwinn and breaks it up. Undertaker tries an irish whip, Godwinn reverses and sends Undertaker into the corner. Godwinn ran into a boot. Undertaker then does the ropewalk and drops a big right hand across the neck of Henry. Godwinn rolls out of the ring, Undertaker follows and stalks Godwinn outside the ring. Godwinn got back in and once Undertaker was in, Godwinn stomps away on Undertaker. Godwinn with a slam and now Henry drops an elbow and got a 2 count. Godwinn rams Undertaker's head into the corner and whips him into the opposite corner. Godwinn delivers a few right hands and boots on The Undertaker. Godwinn off the ropes but Undertaker catches him with a right hand. Undertaker misses an elbow and Godwinn back in control. Godwinn with a chinlock on The Undertaker, Undertaker breaks out of it and comes off the ropes and hits a big boot on Godwinn. Undertaker scoops Godwinn up for the tombstone, Godwinn slips out and hits the slop drop on The Undertaker. What a counter and Godwinn is smiling. Undertaker sits up and Godwinn can't believe it. Godwinn is terrified and Godwinn with a right hand. Godwinn now off the ropes, Undertaker ducks the clothesline and Undertaker comes off the ropes and hits a diving clothesline. Undertaker gets Godwinn by the throat and hits a chokeslam. Undertaker then signals for the tombstone as he scoops Godwinn up and drops him with the tombstone. Undertaker went for the cover and pins Godwinn for the 3 count to pick up the victory.
Winner: The Undertaker
Following the match, Ted Dibiase and Bam Bam Bigelow came down and Dibiase had a mic in his hand. Dibiase says his great night can't be complete without putting a beating on The Undertaker. Dibiase issues a Million Dollar Gaunlet challenge for the Undertaker next week. Paul Bearer gets a mic for The Undertaker and Undertaker accepts the challenge. Dibiase wants a preview of next week right now. Dibiase calls for Lex Luger, IRS and King Kong Bundy to come down and along with Bam Bam they hit the ring and Undertaker starts fighting them off one by one until they all gang up on him. Undertaker gets beat down by The Million Dollar Corporation. Dibiase knocks Paul Bearer down with a right hand. Dibiase laughs wickedly and then takes the urn along with him as Raw goes off the air.

WWF Superstars | March 11 | 1995
IRS defeated Man Mountain Rock

Savio Vega defeated a jobber. Savio made his debut and made quick work of his opponent. Savio hits a spinning heel kick to win the match. During the match we see a split screen and heard pre-recorded comments made earlier from Savio. Savio talks about how great this opportunity this is to wrestle in the WWF. He's going to go out there and give it his 100% and entertain the fans of the WWF.

Yokozuna and Hakushi defeated The Heavenly Bodies. Yokozuna wins the match for his team by hitting the banzai drop on Tom Prichards. Following the match Jim Cornette instructs his team to continue the punishment on The Heavenly Bodies. Yokozuna ends up hitting a banzai this time on Jimmy Del Ray.

Jeff Jarrett defeated Adam Bomb. Jarrett avoids a charge as Adam Bomb went face first into the turnbuckle. Jarrett then locks in the figure four leglock to make Adam Bomb submit.

It is announced that next week on Superstars, Hakushi will face Bart Gunn.

We hear pre-recorded comments from The Undertaker and Paul Bearer who discuss the Million $ Gaunlet coming up this Monday on Raw. Paul Bearer promises that his Undertaker will get his revenge and they will get their urn back. Undertaker sends a message to Ted Dibiase that no matter what he tries it will never keep The Undertaker down. The demons that he's going to be sending out this coming Monday will all fall victim to the grim reaper. He will collect their souls and they will rest in peace.

Also on the show The Heart Break Hotel is set up in the ring and Shawn Michaels and Sycho Sid are standing in the ring. Shawn Michaels brags about how he made headlines at the WrestleMania press conference. Several people came up to him and told him that he's so much better than Diesel. He made Diesel and at WrestleMania, The Heart Break Kid's going to steal the show. Now tonight's guest on the Heart Break Hotel... will you believe it is his opponent at WrestleMania, Big Daddy Cool Diesel. Diesel's music hits and the fans went wild. When Diesel appears through the curtain they notice that it's not Diesel and someone who looks like Diesel wearing Diesel's ring attire. He made his way down to the ring and the imposter immediately tells Shawn to keep Sid away from him, he's terrified of Sycho Sid. Shawn and Sid have a smirk on their face and Shawn gets straight to the point. Shawn tells Diesel, out of the goodness of his heart, he allowed Diesel to hold all the belts in the WWF.

Michaels states that after Survivor Series, it should have been his WWF Title shot, not Diesel's. Diesel simply didn't do anything to deserve it and Diesel ended up becoming a champion. He took advantage of a situation and who did he learn this all of? The imposter tells Shawn he learnt this all from HBK. The imposter apologises to Shawn and tells Shawn that Shawn would have been champion right now because if it was his shot he would have never lost the belt. He would be going into WrestleMania as champion. Shawn said that's right. The imposter says he made the worst decision of his life in November and now he's nothing without Shawn Michaels. Shawn tells Diesel when they face each other at WrestleMania, he's going to send Diesel back to OZ! Shawn laughs and the real Diesel ran down and Shawn bails out of the ring. Diesel manages to fight Sid off and clotheslines him over the top rope. He stares down the imposter Diesel. Diesel kicks him to the gut and taunts Michaels and scoops the imposter up and drops him with the jackknife. Diesel sending a message to Michaels as Michaels backs off. Diesel is furious and his music plays. Sid wants to get in but Michaels holds him back. Wait a minute, Diesel is not done yet, he hits the imposter with another jackknife and Diesel means business. Michaels and Sid back up the aisle and staredown Diesel.

WWF Wrestling Challenge | March 12 | 1995
Tatanka defeated a jobber

Jerry Lawler over a jobber

The Smoking Gunns defeated 2 jobbers

Men on a Mission defeated Eli and Jacob Blu

We heard pre-recorded comments from Ted Dibiase who explains the rules of the Million Dollar Gaunlet. It's simple, Undertaker will be wrestling three matches. He's going to take on three members of the corporation. Now which three from the four, we just have to wait and see and who knows Bam Bam could possibly be an opponent for The Undertaker. Now if Undertaker gets past the first member, then immediately he faces the second member of The Corporation. If he's lucky to survive that then he faces the third member from The Corporation. Dibiase holds up the urn and says lets see how well Undertaker does without the powers of his urn. Dibiase believes that The Undertaker won't even get past the first opponent, hahahaha!!!

We hear pre-recorded comments from Bob Backlund. Bob Backlund talks about when he first became WWF Champion. He held that title for many years. Now he's never been the Intercontinental champion but when he wins the title he plans on holding it for a very long time. All these great fans will then have a man who they can look up too. Children will have an idle they can idolise. Owen Hart is not that role model for children. Backlund then goes on a crazy rant and says his heart, his pride and dignity, everything for him will be on the line in the most important match of his career at WrestleMania and he's not going to defeated. He's a fighter and he's going to show Owen that he's better than him, he's going to match him hold for hold. He's going to out wrestle him. He's going to teach Owen a wrestling lesson. Owen will be forced to submit to the crossface chickenwing.

The same vignette that was aired on Raw for Hunter Hearst Helmsley was aired on Wrestling Challenge. Helmsley will be making his debut tomorrow night on Raw.

It is announced that Shawn Michaels will face The 123 Kid on Monday Night Raw.

During the show it was announced that Wrestling Challenge will be coming to an end soon and the final episode of Wrestling Challenge will be on March 26.

Jim Ross interviews Jeff Jarrett and The Road Dogg. Double J thinks The 123 Kid having an NFL footballer player in his corner is a joke. This is the WWF, not the NFL. Taylor has no idea what he'll be getting himself into. The Road Dogg will certainly take care of LT, while Double J will teach The Kid a lesson in the ring. Road Dogg speaks about how a football player like Taylor has no business being out there at ringside but now LT has decided to back The Kid up, he's going to certainly regret his decision. LT is one of many celebrities that will be there at WrestleMania. We've got Salt 'n' Pepa singing the national anthem at WrestleMania and Road Dogg insults them and thinks that they can't sing. Road Dogg says it's a travesty that Double J never got approached to sing the national anthem because he would have certainly done a better job than Salt 'n' Pepa. Road Dogg and Jarrett then make fun of Jennifer McCarthy and Pamela Anderson. Double J and Road Dogg get huge heat for insulting the celebrities that will be appearing at WrestleMania. Double J was furious with the comments Lawrence Taylor made about Jarrett's music performance. Jarrett states that it would have been the greatest performance ever but The Kid ruined it. Jarrett claims he's a much better entertainer than Taylor ever was. Gorilla Monsoon on commentary calls Double J and Road Dogg a bunch of loud mouths. Double J then tells Jim Ross that once he beats The Kid at WrestleMania, he'll slap that figure four on Lawrence Taylor.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

WWF News
This week on Raw not only will Hunter Hearst Helmsley make his debut, Sunny will also make her WWF debut as she will be presenting the WrestleMania Report. Tamara Sytch will be making her debut as the character Sunny and she will be the WWF's newest backstage interviewer. Sunny will start out as an interviewer and soon she’ll end up as a manager in the near future.

I'm going to have Sunny starting out as a face interviewer. During that time period they had Stephanie Wiand as a backstage interviewer and she was awful. Sunny won't be staying face for that long and by the Summer she will go heel and become a manager.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

I wouldn't be surprised if Razor Ramon turns heel by WrestleMania 11 or he turns heel at the big showpiece of WrestleMania 11, because if anything in my opinion Razor made a way better heel but he was just too over as a face way back in 1995 but Bret also was the top face of the company at that time, so I can easily see this being face vs face with one of them turning heel shortly after

But I love Luger as a heel here, but Luger in my opinion he doesn't even need The Million Dollar Corporation anymore because all they have done here is hold him back from his true potential because he hasn't even won the big one, that being the WWF Championship, so that is why Luger I feel he should just break away from them at this point, but he can still be a heel but the main difference is that he would be on his own

Sid I have a feeling he is going to turn on HBK much like how he did in real life in 1995, and Sid I for some reason see him joining the Million Dollar Corporation dumping HBK

As for Bam Bam being a Streak victim of Taker's, I can actually go for that

But I wonder then what will become of LT, Lawrence Taylor considering he and Bam Bam faced each other at Mania 11, unless you have other plans for LT

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

This is the first BTB series I've gotten into and I'm really enjoying it. Talk about an era of misbooked cards. The WWF had loads of talented wrestlers that booking never capitalized on. For example, it's amazing to me that Bret Hart vs. Razor Ramon never main evented a card about this time frame. Ramon was a much better worker than Diesel and would allow for better matches in the main events if he wins at Wrestlemania.

I like some of the smaller tweeks, too. Especially giving Owen the IC belt and building him up. Luger as a heel is a great move since he was lost in the shuffle with all the high card faces the WWF had then. Undertaker and Bigelow could have a heck of a Wrestlemania match as opposed to the snoozer with King Kong Bundy.

Very intrigued to see what Wrestlemania brings us and how the debuts of Savio Vega and Triple H are handled. Good work so far!

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

Raw Review:
-Really good opener for Raw with Bret and Razor defeating Doink and Papa Shango. I still don’t think the respect will last until Mania but I am liking the way it is developing and King’s Court will be interesting next week with both appearing on it.
-I liked the Mania press conference stuff. Diesel vs HBK will be great and it is interesting that Lawrence Taylor will be in The 123 Kid’s corner at Mania.
-Impressive win for Jean Pierre Lefite, don’t know to expect of him in this BTB but will see over time.
-Another good vignette for Hunter Hearst Helmsley, he finally arrives on Raw next week and I think you may push him from the start.
-Fun Intercontinental title match. Heelish actions from Owen and Backlund making the save was a nice touch. Hopefully Backlund leaves your BTB on a high.
-I have enjoyed the challenges between Bulldog and Luger. This week’s Raw was my favourite challenge so far and Luger’s actions after the challenge involving Bulldog’s family has made this one of the matches I am looking forward to seeing most at Mania and in the build-up to Mania.
-Good win for Taker in the main event however the big news was the post-match attack from the Million Dollar Corporation and them stealing the urn. Bam Bam looks like a big threat for Taker at Mania. The Million Dollar Gauntlet next week will be interesting.

Other notes:
-Savio Vega’s debut against a jobber was low key, like Hunter I am looking forward to seeing how you book Vega.
-Good idea to have Sunny debuting as a backstage interviewer. Will be interesting to see how she will make the transition from interviewer to a heel manager.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

i knew the Million Dollar Corporation was going to steal The Undertaker's urn like they did in real life, this Undertaker/Bigelow feud is so awesome, i just wish they faced off in real-life i didn't actually watch wrestling since 1999 or 2000, but i say Taker and Bigelow they've been going at it so much, i think there should be a gimmick match at Wrestlemania, i don't think we don't need to see a Casket Match at Wrestlemania cause that would not work, it needs to be some sort of violent brutal match between these two because both of the guys are brawlers and there needs to be some stipulation in this match, Bret and Razor at Wrestlemania 11 should be an awesome matchup, they definitely buried Razor in 1995, but in this BTB it should change, i say we give Razor the WWF Championship Belt and have it for a little while as long as he likes, i see Razor defending the championship against a lot of stars, no offense to Bret but i don't see Bret staying with the WWF Championship at Summerslam, i love the way you've been building Hunter Hearst Helmsley, you should have him debut at Wrestlemania and give him like an underhanded competitor to work with like Tatanka, Mable, The Kid, Bob Holly or other guys like that, He should have the success like he did back in real-life, all in all i'm very looking forward to Wrestlemania 11,

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

WWF Monday Night Raw | March 13 | 1995
The Raw video package plays and Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler welcome us to the show. Jerry Lawler will now be taking over permanent announcing duties on Raw while Jim Cornette focuses on his team's quest for the tag team gold. Tonight Bret Hart and Razor Ramon will be the special guests on The King's Court. Plus The Undertaker runs The Million Dollar Gaunlet. but first off we're kicking Raw off with two tremendous wrestlers going against each other as The 123 Kid takes on Shawn Michaels. This is what the new generation is all about and speaking of the new generation, we're going to see the debut tonight of a man who claims to be the future of the WWF, Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Footage was shown from a live event last night when Helmsley was in attendance watching the action as Tatanka was in a match. Hunter Hearst Helmsley was not impressed at all with Tatanka and following the match Tatanka was exchanging some words with Helmsley. Jerry Lawler thinks that was completely disrespectful from Tatanka. Hunter was there to see the action, to scout his future opponents and Tatanka did not make him feel welcome at all. Well tonight Hunter will be making his debut and Lawler thinks Helmsley's much more talented than Tatanka. Vince says we'll see about that.



Match 1 | Shawn Michaels vs The 123 Kid
The 123 Kid's music hits as he made his way down to the ring to a great ovation. Shawn Michaels then made his way down with Sid. This should be an unbelievable match up. The match begins with Shawn telling The Kid he's going to make an example out of him. Lock up and Michaels with a side headlock, Michaels sends The Kid to the ropes and takes him down with a shoulder block. They lock up again and Michaels sends Kid to the ropes, leapfrog by The Kid, leapfrog by Michaels and Kid takes Michaels down with a monkey flip. 123 Kid follows up with an arm drag and then a dropkick and gets a 2 count. Michaels then reverses an irish whip and goes for a back body drop but Kid lands on his feet. Kid with some martial arts kicks, Michaels ducks a roundhouse kick but Kid uses his other foot to knock Michaels down with a roundhouse kick. Kid with a dropkick sends Michaels to the floor but no Michaels hangs on and Kid knocks Michaels down with a roundhouse kick. 123 Kid comes off the ropes and hits a plancha on Michaels. The crowd really into this match already. The Kid is all over Michaels here at the start.

We hear pre-recorded comments from Razor Ramon along with Pamela Anderson. Razor Ramon talks about his success at WrestleMania. He made an impact at his first WrestleMania at Caesar's Palace. Then last year, he made history when he defeated the boy toy, Shawn Michaels in a ladder match. At the Rumble, he beat Shawn to win the Rumble match.

Razor has a smile on his face and puts his arms around Pamela and says this is the life. The bad guys' got the looks, the lady and soon....

Sunny then takes us back to ringside and it's now time to see another new face in the WWF and that's Hunter Hearst Helmsley.



Match 2 | Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs Barry Horowitz
Jerry Lawler already seems to like Sunny and hopes to see more of her. Here comes Hunter Hearst Helmsley who's a newcomer here in the WWF. He hails from Greenwich, Connecticut. For the past two weeks we've been seeing Helmsley running down several superstars and we saw him last night at a live event when he was in attendance watching the action here in the WWF. Helmsley vows to become a star here in the WWF. Right now is the first time we'll get to see Helmsley in the ring. Lawler talks about how Helmsley's had nothing but the best all his life. He been trained by the best and he's a very good wrestler and all his life he's been nothing but the best. Look at the arragonce of Helmlsey who's got his nose that far up in the air, look at the aristocratic attitude here from Helmsley. He's been claiming that he's going to bring class and civility here to the WWF. Lets see what Hunter has to bring to the table. He's up against the veteran Barry Horowitz but Lawler makes fun of Horowitz who's never won a match here in the WWF.

What's this now, Helmsley then places Horowitz's head between his legs and applies a double underhook facebuster by realising Barry's arm and drives him down to the mat. What a devastating move. Lawler says Helmsley calls this the pedigree. Helmsley went for the pin and got the 3 count. A very easy victory here for Helmsley, an impressive athlete and we'll be seeing a lot more of Helmsley in upcoming weeks. Speaking of newcomers, Savio Vega who made his debut on Superstars this past Saturday, we'll see Savio making his Raw debut next week.

That was just the start, what Hunter Hearst Helmsley wants, he gets. Tatanka comes out and he doesn't appreciate the comments Helmsley made about him and several other superstars over the past two weeks. Even last night Helmsley was very disrespecful during Tatanka's match. Lawler cuts Tatanka off and tells him come on this is Hunter's first match, show some respect. Tatanka can learn a lot from Helmsley because Helmsley's come here to teach people about class and civility. Helmsley thinks Tatanka does not have these qualities and Tatanka is simply beneath him. Helmsley holds his nose up high and starts walking off. Look at the arragonce of this man. Tatanka tells Lawler soon he's going to show this rich snob what the WWF is all about.

President Jack Tunney needs to do something about this.

The King's Court | Special Guests Bret Hart and Razor Ramon
Jerry Lawler is in the ring and The King's Court is set up. Lawler is running down the fans and at WrestleMania the crowd will be split. They're going to have a tough time deciding who to root for when two men that he hates face each other at WrestleMania. One man thinks he's the bad guy, mr machismo, the man that should have never won the Royal Rumble, Razor Ramon. Razor came out to a huge ovation. Razor stares Lawler down and throws his tooth pick in Lawler's face and Razor warns Lawler not to try to get funny with him. Lawler's already getting annoyed. Lawler tells Razor he's not here to pick a fight, he's here to do an interview. Then Lawler starts bragging about how he's humiliated Bret over the last two years. Lawler then calls out Bret Hart who comes out to a huge ovation. Lawler is not pleased with the ovation the Hitman received and he wants Bret's music to be cut and Lawler starts getting down to the point. Lawler really can't believe why these moron fans want to see Bret Hart vs Razor Ramon at WrestleMania. He calls Razor a thug and he doesn't deserve to be representing the WWF as the WWF Champion. As for Bret Hart, he shouldn't be the champion, that belt should have been Owen's. Lawler talks about how both men have some sort of respect for each other but he thinks it's bogus and it's just to fool all these moron fans. Deep down Bret and Razor both hate each other and Lawler actually hopes that they both tear each other apart at WrestleMania. Bret cuts Lawler off and he knows what Lawler is up to, he knows the type of games Lawler is playing trying to get Bret and Razor to go against each other.

Lawler then stirs up trouble and brings up comments that Razor made about Bret's family two years ago to wind Bret up. He then winds Razor up that Bret beat him twice and since then Razor has never recovered. The last time they faced each other was at the King of the Ring two years ago. Bret beat Razor in the opening match and Bret went on to win the tournament but we all know what happened at the end when Bret got crowned by yours truly hahahaha. Lawler laughs. Bret tells King he's that close to knocking him out so King shuts up. Bret challenges Lawler to a match this week on Superstars. Razor tells Bret that he's a great champion, one of the best but it's time for the torch to be passed. Now it's the bad guy's time to step up the ladder. Just like he climbed the ladder to success at WrestleMania last year, this time he's going for the big one and come WrestleMania, he's taking The Hitman's title. Bret responds back by telling Razor how he walked The Razor's Edge before and made Razor submit. When they meet again, Razor will find out just like everyone else why The Hitman is the best there is, the best there was and the best there.... Razor takes the mic off Bret and wait a minute both men having a staredown. King chimes in and asks why make these people wait till WrestleMania when we can see a good fight right now. Come on tear each other apart, we all want to see it. Bret knows Lawler's stirring up trouble so he turns his attention on Lawler and grabs Lawler by the jacket. Bret goes for a right hand and King ducks and Bret nails Razor with a right hand. Razor got back up and shoves Bret, Bret shoves him back and Razor nails Bret with a right hand. Bret tackles Razor down and they start brawling. Lawler rolls out of the ring and Lawler's smiling as officials run down to break it up, both men being pulled apart by the referees. Look at what the King has done. Bret and Razor notice Lawler laughing and he's got a big grin on his face as Raw goes off the air.




WWF Superstars | March 18 | 1995
Hakushi defeated Bart Gunn. During the match it was announced that Yokozuna will be facing Billy Gunn this coming Monday on Raw.

The Headshrinkers vs Doink and Papa Shango ended in a double count out. Both teams ended up brawling near the entrance way until officials came out to seperate both teams.

Owen Hart defeated a jobber. Following the match Bob Backlund appears on the screen and he's standing along with some local jobber in the locker room. He made a bet with this guy that the guy won't be able to escape the crossface chickenwing. Backlund tells Owen there is no escape from the crossface chickenwing and Owen will be screaming in pain and he's going to show Owen a demonstration that there is no escape. This will be Owen Hart at WrestleMania. Backlund asks the local jobber if he can try to get out of the hold and the guy thinks he can do it. Backlund puts the chickenwing quickly on him and the guy immediately gives up. He wants Backlund to let go, Backlund is screaming Owen's name and yells come on Owen give up, come on give up. Backlund has lost it. Backlund yells am i going to retire and the guy screams Noooo. Finally he lets go and says ladies and gentleman the winner and new Intercontinental Champion, Mr Bob Backlund. Owen is disgusted and the crowd gives Backlund a great ovation.

Bret Hart defeated Jerry Lawler. Razor Ramon comes out at the end of the match and stands near ringside to stare down Bret. Bret holds up the WWF Title taunting Ramon.

Also on the show Vince McMahon conducts an Interview with President Jack Tunney. Vince discussed The Million Dollar Gaunlet on Monday Night Raw. The Undertaker will get his chance to get his revenge on Bam Bam at WrestleMania but you can certainly expect the same people who interfered in the gaunlet to be involved in Undertaker's match at WrestleMania. How can Jack Tunney put a stop to this? Tunney decides that he's not going to ban The Corporation from ringside because they're going to have to deal with someone who's going to stop outside interference. Just like Undertaker's match with Yokozuna at Survivor Series, he appointed a special enforcer and it worked so well that we're going to have a special enforcer for Undertaker's match against Bam Bam at WrestleMania. This man has history with Ted Dibiase and we saw him at Saturday Night's Main Event. This man will be there this Monday on Raw and the special enforcer is Rowdy Roddy Piper. The fans love this announcement and Vince can't wait to see Hot Rod on Raw.

Backstage The Million Dollar Man and Bam Bam are not pleased with Jack Tunney's announcement. Bam Bam says bring on Piper, he doesn't care. If he gets in Bam Bam's way then he's going to wipe Piper out. Bam Bam thinks Undertaker is nothing without his urn and on Raw this week, The Corporation showed The Undertaker how strong they are. Bam Bam wants his match with The Undertaker to be a no holds barred match, here there are no rules, this is exactly what Bam Bam wants. This is his kind of match and he's going to do whatever it takes to defeat The Undertaker at WrestleMania.

What a match up this is going to be when these two powerhouses square off at WrestleMania.

New WWF Interviewer Sunny presented a face to face segment in the studios. Joining Sunny this week is The Intercontinental Champion Owen Hart and Bob Backlund. Owen appears on the screen first. Owen welcomes Sunny to the WWF, he's proud to see a new face in the WWF because she's New Generation. Bob Backlund then appears on the screen and Sunny talks about the importance of this match, it's title vs career. She talks about Bob Backlund's incredible 6 year WWF Title reign but Owen interrupts and asks Sunny why doesn't she ask Backlund who helped him win the WWF Title at Survivor Series and how long did that reign last? Backlund cuts in and tells Owen has he ever been WWF Champion? Backlund says his one Rumble performance in 1993 lasted longer than Owen's previous three Rumble performances combined. Owen fires back and asks Backlund has he ever been King of the Ring. Both men start arguing and Backlund states that he's a stubborn man and he doesn't give up easily and he's going to take that belt off Owen. He's going to take this title to a new level. Owen fires back and claims that he's already given the belt so much prestige because he's already the King. He knows that Backlund's a lunatic but he sure can wrestle but Owen believes that he's a better wrestler than Backlund and he can outwrestle Backlund. Backlund starts yelling about how he's going to dismantle Owen when they meet at WrestleMania. Owen's response was that he will show any compassion for him, he's going to have no regret in ending Backlund's career. Both men argue and Sunny thanks both men for joining her and she can't wait for WrestleMania.

It is announced that tomorrow night on Raw, newcomer Savio Vega will take on the huge King Kong Bundy.

Razor Ramon defeated Henry Godwinn. Bret Hart came down to join Gorilla Monsoon and Jim Ross for commentary. Bret states that he would someday like to see Razor become champion but right now there's no chance of that happening. At WrestleMania, he's going to shatter Razor's dream and the reality is that he's beat Razor twice and he's going to do it again for the third time. Near the end of the match, when Razor was about to put away Godwinn, he looks at Bret and motions for the belt. Could this be The Hitman at WrestleMania? Bret says he's the excellence of excecution and he's got a counter for every hold. Razor scoops Godwinn up and drops him with the Razor's Edge to win the match. Bret stood up and held his title up and Razor motions for the title. Next week will be the final episode of Wrestling Challenge

Also on the show, Jim Ross interviewed Tatanka. Jim Ross brings up the confrontation between Tatanka and Hunter Hearst Helmsley on Raw. We don't know much about Helmsley but he's already starting to become very unpopular here in the WWF. Tatanka talks about his roots, how proud he is of his heritage. He represents all Native Americans and over the past two weeks, Helmsley was making fun of not only him but several other superstars. A rich snob like Hunter Hearst Helmsley may have got what he had wanted in life but now he's here in the WWF. Here you have to fight for everything. You have to work your way to the top. Tatanka explains about how he had goals when he was about to arrive in the WWF. He was sitting in his homeland with all of his native Americans. His vision was to climb to the top of the mountain of the WWF. He found out the hard way that this isn't so easy, but a guy like Hunter Hearst Helmsley's already so confident that he's the future of the WWF. Well now that he's here, Hunter's going to find out the hard way what the WWF is all about.

WWF News
The newcomer, Hunter Hearst Helmsley is set to take on Tatanka at WrestleMania. Expect to see an official announcement being made soon. Hunter Hearst Helmsley has already started to make friends in the locker room and they are The Kliq. Already Hunter has settled in well. The Kliq is a backstage group which contains Shawn Michaels, Diesel, Razor Ramon and The 123 Kid. In real life, these four men are good friends but on screen only Shawn is the heel. The Kliq has had a lot of backstage influence and several superstars do not like The Kliq. With The Kliq taking Hunter under their wing, expect to see Helmsley being a big part of the new generation.

WWF Management is extremely high on The 123 Kid and it is expected that he will get a good push this year. Shawn Michaels certainly had no problem putting his friend over and it gets to show that The Kliq don't have a problem putting each other over.

Officials have thought about turning Shawn Michaels face but Shawn Michaels was against the idea as he enjoys playing the role of a heel.

A 10 man tag team match will be taking place at WrestleMania featuring some of the stars that are not on the card yet. An announcement will be made for this match a few days before WrestleMania. Don't expect to see this match last long, it's just to get some of the stars on the card.

Following Lex Luger's victory over The Undertaker in the gaunlet match, Officials have discussed the idea of a feud between The Undertaker and Lex Luger in the near future. This will continue the angle between The Undertaker and The Million Dollar Corporation.

An announcement for the debut of a new WWF ppv coming in May will be made soon on WWF programming.

The action spills to the floor as both teams brawl outside and the ref starts the count. Both teams don't get back in by 10 and the ref has counted both teams out. Jarrett argues that he just made in back in but the ref is having none of it. Jarrett, Road Dogg and Owen then begin to leave and stare down Bob Backlund and The Kid.
Result: Double Count Out

Vince McMahon then shows us a promo from Hunter Hearst Helmsley earlier on. Helmsley was in a restaurant as he's finished eating. Helmsley was going to give the waiter a tip but changes his mind and tells the waiter that he doesn't deserve it. He tells the waiter that he falls in the same category as Tatanka, both of them are beneath him and have no class. Hunter Hearst Helmsley brags that he's all about class and last week on Raw he showed what a fine superstar he is. Hunter vows to become a huge superstar in the WWF.

Match 3 | Billy Gunn vs Yokozuna
Yokozuna made his way down with Mr Fuji and Jim Cornette. Billy Gunn then came down with Bart. Yokozuna controls the match at the start by throwing Billy around the ring. Yokozuna then gets a nerve hold on Billy, Billy gets back up to his feet and breaks out of the hold. Billy tries taking Yokozuna off his feet but can't get the big man down. Yokozuna reversed a whip and sends Billy to the turnbuckle. Billy Gunn avoids a charge and then hammers away at Yokozuna. Billy off the top rope and nails Yokozuna with a double axe handle taking Yokozuna down to one knee. Billy then comes off the ropes but Yokozuna catches him and slams him with a belly to belly suplex. Yokozuna then drags Billy to the corner and goes up top and hits the banzai drop. Yokozuna gets the 3 count and gets the quick win. Yokozuna refuses to get up. Bart got in and hits Yokozuna with lefts and rights knocking Yokozuna outside the ring. Bart goes to check on Billy and Yokozuna wants to get in but he's restrained by Cornette and Fuji, Yokozuna taunts Bart and raises his arm in victory. Hakushi and Yokozuna have picked up singles victories now against The Gunns and they have to be the favourites going into the tag team title match at WrestleMania.
Winner: Yokozuna
We then go to Sunny for the WrestleMania Report. We hear comments from Bret Hart. Bret gives credit to his fans who never stopped believing in him. They gave him support and helped him bounce back and he became the WWF champion again. Bret says the fans believe in him and they are the reason why he keeps going. Now all these great fans are going to witness a classic match at WrestleMania XI. Bret's looking forward to stepping in the ring with Razor Ramon. They don't get any tougher than Razor. There will be no excuses after WrestleMania and Bret believes that he's going to win. At the end of the match, he's going to be walking out with his title with the WWF Title belt being draped around his shoulder.



The King's Court | Special Guest Rowdy Roddy Piper
Jerry Lawler's in the ring and it's now time for The Kings' Court. Lawler insults the fans. Lawler then calls out Rowdy Roddy Piper who comes out to a great ovation. Piper has a smile on his face and laughs at Lawler and asks Lawler how he's doing? The last time they were in the ring together was at the King of the Ring and Piper reminds Lawler that he beat him. Lawler then gets to the point. He thinks Piper did not do a fair job at Saturday Night's Main Event but now he's got another issue to deal with. He's got to deal with The Million Dollar Corporation. With Piper as the enforcer, there's no way he'll be able to stop The Corporation or any other superstars getting their hands on The Undertaker. Piper thinks he did a great job as a referee and now as an enforcer he's going to do even better. What went down last week was completely out of line and that's why President Tunney has selected him to make sure no one interferes. If they do, they're going to have to deal with Hot Rod. He doesn't care if they're strong, big or scary looking. He sends a message to The Corporation that you don't want to make him mad, everyone has to pay the Piper. Lawler thinks Piper will be the one paying the price. Speaking of price, he forgot to tell Piper that he has another guest, The Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase. Ted Dibiase came out with Bam Bam. Dibiase thinks Piper has no business being out there as the enforcer but now that he is if he gets in the Corporation's way at WrestleMania then he's going to suffer the same fate like King Kong Bundy did earlier tonight.

Piper says he's not intimidated at all by The Corporation, he knows what kind of person Dibiase is like. Dibiase fires back and he knows the sort of person Piper is and because of Piper he suffered one of his most humiliating defeats of his career when he lost to Virgil. Piper tells Dibiase and Bigelow that The Undertaker never lets his enemies get away. At WrestleMania he's going to get his revenge against Bam Bam. At WrestleMania, Bigelow will be the one resting in peace. Wait a minute now Bam Bam is mad, Bigelow gets in Piper's face and Dibiase says get him Bam Bam. Piper turns his attention on Dibiase and Bam Bam with a right hand on Piper. Bigelow and Dibiase put the boots to Piper and suddenly the lights go out. The lights are back on and Piper is outside the ring and THE UNDERTAKER is right behind Dibiase and Bam Bam and the crowd is going nuts. Jerry Lawler rolls out of the ring. Dibiase and Bam Bam turn around and Undertaker has them both by the throat. Bigelow fights out of it as Dibiase escapes. Bigelow and Undertaker get into a slugfest and Bigelow sends Undertaker to the ropes, Undertaker ducks a clothesline and hits a flying clothesline. Bigelow rolls out the ring and Undertaker and Bam Bam brawl outside and Bigelow rams Undertaker's head into the post. Undertaker no sells it and stares right into Bam Bam's eyes and Bam Bam is shocked. Undertaker whips Bam Bam into the steel steps. Lex Luger and IRS run down and Undertaker nails IRS with a right hand and Luger decides to back off. The Corporation back up the entrance way as Undertaker does his cut throat motion and stares down the Corporation. Piper points at Dibiase and tells him that he's the one that's going to pay the price and feel the wrath of The Undertaker.


A clip is shown of Wrestling Challenge and this week will be the final Wrestling Challenge show. Vince mentioned that Gorilla Monsoon and Jim Ross who host Wrestling Challenge will replace him and Jerry Lawler on Superstars.

Match 4 | Diesel vs Sycho Sid
Sid came down with Shawn Michaels and with Shawn being there at ringside, it doesn't look good for Diesel. Last week The 123 Kid defeated Shawn Michaels and Michaels blames Diesel for that defeat. Diesel then came out to a big ovation. The match begins with a staredown, Shawn's distracts Diesel and Sid gets a cheapshot on Diesel. Sid hammers away at Diesel in the corner, Diesel fights back with right hands. He whips Sid to the corner and delivers a corner clothesline. Diesel with reverse elbows in the corner. Diesel then sends Sid to the floor with a devastating clothesline. Diesel taunts Shawn as Shawn helps Sid back up and Sid is furious. Sid got back in and gets into a slugfest with Diesel, Sid rakes Diesel's eyes and slams him. Sid misses an elbow drop and now Diesel with some forearms on Sid. Diesel places Sid on the ropes and comes off the ropes and drops his weight across the back of Sycho Sid. Sid then reversed an irish whip and sends Diesel hard into the turnbuckle. Sid then works on Diesel's back and takes complete control. Sid has Diesel on the ropes and distracts the ref while Shawn gets some cheapshots on Diesel. Sid with a few uppercuts and then jams his knee into the back of Diesel. Sid then puts a camel clutch on Diesel, the fans get behind Diesel as Diesel powers out and drives Sid to the corner. Diesel with reverse elbows to Sid in the corner. He whips Sid to the ropes and delivers a sidewalk slam. Here we go Diesel signals for the jackknife. Shawn's on the apron and Diesel decides to go after Shawn. Diesel chases Shawn around ringside until Shawn got in the ring and hides behind the ref. Sid from behind sends Diesel shoulder first into the post. Sid delivers a one handed chokeslam on Diesel. Sid then brings Diesel back up to his feet and drops him with the powerbomb. Sid went for the cover and gets the 3 count. What a win for Sid and Shawn is jumping outside the ring with joy and goes and gets in the ring and celebrates with Sid. Shawn then mocks Diesel's taunt and stands tall over Diesel as Raw goes off the air.

WWF Superstars | March 25 | 1995
Bret Hart defeated Mantaur. Bret's sister Diana was in attendance along with Harry Smith.

Bam Bam defeated Aldo Montoya. After the match as Bigelow was making his way to the back, he stops when The Undertaker appears on the video wall. Undertaker sends a message to Bam Bam. With the absence of his sacred urn, The Undertaker says he's reached out to his creatures of the night to utilise their power as his driving force. Bam Bam may be called the beast from the east but the beast is going to be stepping in the ring at WrestleMania with the lord of the jungle. At WrestleMania, Undertaker vows to collect his urn & will fill it with the soul of Bam Bam.

Hunter Hearst Helmsley defeated Duke the Dumpster Droese. Before the match began, Hunter refused to face Droese because he's a garbage man and he smells. HHH holds his nose and decides to walk off and gets booed heavily. Tatanka comes down and starts pointing at HHH telling him to get back in and fight. Hunter turns around and Droese is right behind him, he sends him back in and the bell rings. Hunter ended up winning the match by hitting the pedigree on Droese. Following the match Helmsley was seen spraying himself with his spray bottle that he carries to the ring.

The Headshrinkers defeated Men on a Mission. The winning team gets a future title shot against the tag team champions. Following the match, Men on a Mission upset about the defeat attacked The Headshrinkers. Mable squashed Fatu in the corner and then hits a splash on Seone. Afa and Lou Albano got in to put a stop to this but got attacked by Men on a Mission. Oscar tried stopping his team from doing further damage on Afa and Albano but Mable and Mo turned on Oscar. Mable hits a legdrop on Oscar. Mable and Mo leave to huge heat.

Also on the show Vince McMahon interviews The Million Dollar Man Dibiase and Lex Luger. Dibiase states that he's out here for a good cause. He's going to give a fan $100 but remember nothing is free around here and if they want to earn this money they have got to work for it. Since The British Bulldog's son is here in the front row he wants The Bulldog's son to get in the ring and earn great money. Now this is Harry's chance to prove that he's not going to be a loser like his father. Dibiase wants Harry to come in the ring. Harry refuses but Dibiase said he can buy anything or anybody. So he tells Harry instead of $100, he's going to give him $500 if he can do some push ups in the ring. That's all he has to do. Harry now wants to do this but Diana doesn't really want him to go ahead with this. Harry decides to get in the ring and takes the challenge. Luger wants all these young children to look up to him as a role model and not The British Bulldog. Vince asks Dibiase is he really going to give Harry the money is he's successful because a few years ago, Dibiase set a young kid a basketball challenge and Dibiase cheated him out of the money. Dibiase says if Harry can do the push ups then he gets the money. Luger first demonstrates how to do push ups. Luger gets up and starts flexing his muscles. Luger then tells Harry to do five push ups as a demonstration. Harry manages to do five push ups and Harry then asks for his money but Dibiase tells Harry to hold on.

If Harry can manage to do 10 push ups he gets $500. The fans start to count and Harry is doing well and then struggles and the fans root him on as he gets to 9. He's almost getting to 10 but Luger put his foot on Harry's back and Harry fails to do the 10th push up. Dibiase laughs and Dibiase and Luger get huge heat for this. Dibiase says aww Harry we didn't get to 10. Better luck next time. Harry says he did his best but Luger and Dibiase cheated. Ted tells him that doing your best isn't good enough for them and it's quite simple Harry doesn't get the money, Now beat it kid hahahahhaha!! Harry is upset and Diana is disgusted with the actions of Luger. Dibiase holds up his briefcase and said no one is richer than The Million Dollar Man and you have to work hard to earn this money and none of these fans will be getting this hahahhaaha!!! Suddenly The British Bulldog ran down and got the briefcase off Dibiase and knocked Luger down with the briefcase and Dibiase flees the ring. Bulldog and Harry then hand out money to the fans which gets a loud ovation. Ted Dibiase was furious and Harry even ends up getting his $500. Bulldog then celebrates with his family.

WWF Wrestling Challenge | March 26 | 1995
This is the final episode of Wrestling Challenge and we are a week away from WrestleMania XI. Results: Henry Godwinn defeated Bob Holly, Jean Pierre Lefite defeated Man Mountain Rock, Doink & Papa Shango defeated The Heavenly Bodies

An Undertaker promo is shown as The Undertaker is in a graveyard digging a grave. Paul Bearer states that his Undertaker is back with a vengeance. He goes to the tomb where some of Undertaker's victims names are shown and Bearer says Bam Bam Bigelow will be next. Undertaker says at WrestleMania, the beast from the east will meet his maker.

We hear pre recorded comments from King Kong Bundy who promises to get revenge on The Million Dollar Corporation.

Sunny is in the studio hosting the face to face segment. We hear comments from The Smoking Gunns and their opponents at WrestleMania, Yokozuna and Hakushi. Jim Cornette thinks The Smoking Gunns are afraid of Yokozuna and Hakushi. Hakushi and Yokozuna have already defeated them in singles competition. Billy interrupts and tells Cornette that The Smoking Gunns have been teaming up for a long time and in tag team competition they are the best team in the WWF. Yokozuna and Hakushi may have got the better of them in singles competition but in tag team competition, they're going to get beat by The Smoking Gunns. Mr Fuji cuts in and says Yokozuna and Hakushi are the most dangerous team in the WWF and they are going to crush The Smoking Gunns. Bart Gunn thinks Fuji and Cornette are getting very over confident and should not under estimate The Smoking Gunns. They may be the underdogs but they're going to give it their 100% to retain the titles. They worked hard to win these belts and they're going to retain these belts. Jim Cornette tells The Gunns to keep on dreaming because they're going in there against a monster and the best high flyer in the WWF. At WrestleMania, his team will win the tag team titles. Yokozuna yells BANZAI!!!

Also on the show Jim Ross interviewed Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Ross asks Hunter that he's already very unpopular here in the WWF, he's already getting on the bad side of several superstars. Is Hunter making a wise choice here? Hunter says a lot of superstars are just jealous of him, they just wish they were Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Take Tatanka for example. Hunter thinks Tatanka hasn't got what it takes to be a star and that's something which Hunter will become. Ross thinks Tatanka's a tremendous competitor, he was undefeated for a very long time. Hunter says so what! Tatanka's been here for 2 1/2 years and he's never won a title here. Now unlike Tatanka, Hunter vows to win titles in the WWF. Tatanka comes down and it looks like he's had enough. Tatanka gets in the ring and tells Helmsley that he's been running his mouth and now it's time for Hunter to get competition. Tatanka thinks Helmsley won't be having an undefeated streak like Tatanka because he's going to hand Helmsley a defeat real soon. Tatanka challenges Hunter to a match at WrestleMania. Helmsley said he definetely wants to compete at WrestleMania but not against Tatanka. Tatanka is just no match for him. Helmsley is about to leave the ring but Tatanka tells him to hold on. He asks Hunter if he's afraid to get beat? He's only been here since last week and he's just afraid that he's going to get beat real soon. That's why Helmsley's backing out of the match. Hunter ends up agreeing to the match and gets out of the ring. Tatanka poses for the crowd and Hunter slides back in and attacks Tatanka from behind by sending him shoulder first into the ring post. Helmsley then plants the pedigree on Tatanka and then takes a bow to humiliate Tatanka.

Razor Ramon defeated IRS. The announcers then thanked the fans for joining them for the final episode of Wrestling Challenge. WrestleMania is next Sunday and what a ppv it is going to be.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

i wouldn't be surprised at all if Wrestlemania would be the massive event ever like it was in this BTB, as far as the matches are, i'm going to start with Lex Luger vs British Bulldog, now why would Lex bring Davey's family and mistreat them with disrespect, and have Luger taunt Bulldog while he's down infront of his own family,

i don't get it, i'm glad Bulldog got a bit of revenge and gave Harry the money but i don't see this Bulldog/Luger feud ending anytime soon,

number one thing being about King Kong Bundy leaving the Million Dollar Corporation, you remember when they had the 1999 storyline in which Bossman turned on the Corporate Ministry and then rejoined them, i think that shall happen, but as far as Bundy's days in this BTB i believe they are over, so MDC now have a lot of rivals to deal with,

and speaking of Bam Bam Bigelow still can't get a break from The Undertaker before Wrestlemania, with Piper being brought along is awesome too, as far as Undertaker goes, i wouldn't see Undertaker's streak end here on this BTB, as far as the No Holds Barred stipulation goes, i like that idea, i just wish Taker and Bam Bam would fight in real life at Wrestlemania 11 instead of giving Bam Bam a chance to fight LT, and Undertaker having to fight King Kong Bundy, oh and i'm interested to see what you will be doing with the urn whether you will give it back to The Undertaker or have somebody of course take it, but this feud with Bam Bam i don't see that ending too, i would have the two end their feud at the first In Your House with some kind of gimmick,

Hunter Hearst Helmsley he's already made a big impact in your BTB challenging one of the underrated stars i think Tatanka, Tatanka went from being a native, to joining the Million Dollar Corporation and going down the uppercards once again in where he was jobbed many times, i don't see Tatanka winning at Wrestlemania to a newcomer, i would much rather push Hunter, there could be big stars Hunter could face like Diesel, Razor Ramon, The Undertaker and Bret Hart.

Yokozuna and Hakushi as well scoring singles wins over the WWF Tag Team Champions definitely spells trouble for the Smoking Gunns, i see Yoko and Hakushi taking the gold, hell. That could be a dangerous team any WWF Tag Teams would've contended with in 1995 if they teamed up in real life

as much as i'm a big fan of Bob Backlund being a threat to Owen's intercontinental title, i like the idea of Backlund challenging it, but i don't see Backlund taking the gold because that would be too weak for Backlund to win the belt and then lose it like he did with the WWF Title for three days when Diesel beat him for it

speaking of Diesel, Diesel and HBK, this is going to be an intense end at Wrestlemania 11, but i do think after this, Sid will dump Shawn Michaels but have the storyline into where the Million Dollar Corporation helps Sid beat up on Shawn Michaels the next night after RAW while Shawn and Sid have their argument and let Diesel come out to chase off all the members of the Corporation,

I'm anxious to see about Savio Vega too whether he will be at Wrestlemania and whether he will be booked or not, i say give Savio a standard match at Wrestlemania, you said there was going to be a 10-man Tag Team Match i say give Savio the chance and let him be the star in this match,

the big one i'm more than interested in, Bret Hart and Razor Ramon for Wrestlemania, my pick to win the championship is definitely Razor Ramon, because they gave Razor a good year in 1994, but 1995 should've been Razor's chance to win the World Wrestling Federation Championship, so i would give Razor the WWF Title and i don't see the idea of Razor turning Heel as well, i say Razor should stay a face for as long and hang on to the WWF Title til the end of 1995,

i'm excited for the Go-Home RAW before Wrestlemania, can't wait for that.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

Thanks for the review. For Undertaker vs Bam Bam I was going to do either a lumberjack match or a casket match but I went for a no holds barred match instead. Raw will be up in a few days.

WWF News and Notes
Last year at WrestleMania X, a 10 man tag team match was scrapped from the card. This year a 10 man tag team match was planned for WrestleMania XI but now officials have decided not to go with a 10 man tag team match. Instead a new match will be announced for WrestleMania on Monday Night Raw.

A 20 man battle royal will take place on the WrestleMania countdown show(pre-show) More updates on this soon.

Match 1 | Shawn Michaels vs Savio Vega
Shawn got on the mic and brags that he's going about how he's going to go out there and steal the show at WrestleMania. Guys like Diesel are a dime a dozen but people like The Heart Break Kid come across once in a life time. Shawn thinks Diesel will fail at WrestleMania. Shawn then promises to give everyone a show that they've never ever seen before, why because he can. As for tonight, he wants a warm up match for WrestleMania so he challenges anyone in the back who has the guts to take him on. Savio Vega came down to accept the challenge. This man has a lot of guts, he's only been here for a few weeks and he's already on a roll. Last week he overcame the huge King Kong Bundy. Savio's very excited and can he pull off a major upset tonight by defeating Shawn Michaels. The match begins with Michaels and Savio locking up, Michaels sends Savio to the ropes and takes him down with a shoulder block. Savio then reversed a whip and gets an armdrag on Michaels.

Vega and Michaels fight outside as the ref begins to count. Savio sends Michaels back in but as Michaels gets rolled in Michaels accidently knocked the referee down. Sycho Sid then sends Vega into the ring post. The ref got back up and continued counting as Vega is unable to get back in the ring and gets counted out. Shawn and Sid celebrate. Savio got back in and went after Sid but Michaels with a right hand on Vega. Sid and Michaels double team Vega until Diesel ran down for the save. Diesel tosses Shawn to the floor and Diesel and Savio clothesline Sid over the top rope. Diesel and Savio celebrate in the ring and taunt Shawn and Sid.
Winner by count out: Shawn Michaels


Jim Ross conducted a sit down interview with Bob Backlund
Earlier on today Jim Ross conducted a sit down interview with Bob Backlund. Ross states that this match will be the most important match of Bob Backlund's career. We could either see Bob Backlund winning the Intercontinental title for the very first time or we could see Backlund wrestling his last match. Bob discussed what winning the Intercontinental title would mean to him. He knows he's taking a huge risk into agreeing to this match because his career's on the line but he doesn't back down from any challenge and he's also not a quitter. This is his opportunity to make history because he's never won the Intercontinental title before. That would make him the oldest Intercontinental champion ever. He's wrestled many top superstars in his career and he's looking forward to stepping in the ring against Owen Hart. Ross mentions that Owen is one of the very best superstars in the WWF, he's a great technical wrestler. We're going to see a great match at WrestleMania. Owen has promised he will do whatever it takes to not only keep his title but to end Backlund's career. Can Bob Backlund overcome Owen Hart this Sunday? Backlund says there would be no shame if he had lost to Owen at WrestleMania but it's not going to happen. Backlund says he will be victorious this Sunday. He's fully focused and prepared for this match. He's been working very hard. He's yet to have a big WrestleMania moment but he's going to get it. When he puts that crossface chickenwing on Owen, Owen's going to submit and then Mr Bob Backlund will be announced as the new Intercontinental Champion. Jim Ross thanks Bob and wishes him good luck for this Sunday.


Backstage Todd Petingill gets a word with Savio Vega. Vega issued a challenge to Sycho Sid to a match at WrestleMania.

Match 2 | Razor Ramon vs Papa Shango
Papa Shango's music plays as he's already in the ring. Razor Ramon then came down to a great ovation. When Razor went to hand over his gold to the timekeeper, Shango attacked Razor from behind. Shango with some shots to the back. Shango gets a back suplex on Ramon and gets a 2 count. Razor reversed an irish whip and lands a hard right hand on Shango. Razor goes to work on Shango's arm until Shango rakes Ramon's eyes. Shango with a slam and missed an elbow.

Razor whips Shango to the corner and Shango avoids the charge as Razor goes face first into the turnbuckle. Shango chokes Razor on the ropes. Shango tries to get his voodo stick but the ref notices it and tells Shango to put the stick down. Shango goes back to work on Razor with some punches in the corner. During Razor's match, we see a split screen as Vince McMahon gets a word from Bret Hart as he gets Bret's thoughts on his match with Razor this Sunday. Bret knows that Razor is one of the toughest superstars in the WWF. Bret talks about the hardest competition that he's had to step in the ring with, one fight after another and this Sunday at WrestleMania he will prove that he is the best there was, the best there is and the best there ever will be. Shango gets a chinlock on Razor, Razor gets back to his feet and fights out of the hold by hitting a back suplex. Shango then reversed a whip and sends Razor to the corner. Shango comes charging in and eats boot. Razor goes on the second rope and hits a bulldog and gets a 2 count. Razor calls for the Razor's Edge and has Shango up on his shoulders and drops him with the Razor's Edge. Razor goes for the cover and pins Shango for the 3 count for the victory. A hard fought win for The Bad Guy as he now moves onto WrestleMania this Sunday for the biggest match of his career.
Winner Razor Ramon
Backstage Todd Petingill asks Sid whether he accepts Savio's challenge and Sid tells Todd to shut up. Todd gets afraid and Sid was irate and accepts Savio's challenge. He warns Savio that in Savio's short time here in the WWF he's now landing himself into real trouble. Savio doesn't know what he's getting himself into. What Savio needs to remember one thing that I am the master and ruler of the world and Savio's just the learner. At WrestleMania, Savio's going to face the man who rules the world!!!!!!!



The Beast from the East confronts The Grim Reaper
Bam Bam Bigelow came down to the ring with Ted Dibiase. Dibiase gets a mic and he was furious over what down on Superstars when The Bulldog handed out his money to the fans. Dibiase believes that Luger will teach The Bulldog a lesson and this Sunday at WrestleMania, Bulldog is going to get embarrased infront of his family. Dibiase then discussed The No Holds Barred Match and puts over how dangerous Bam Bam Bigelow is. Rowdy Roddy Piper was lucky to escape from Bam Bam last week but if he sticks his nose in the Corporation's business then he will be pay the price. Bam Bam says it's anything goes and he's going to do whatever it takes to put The Undertaker down once and for all. It's quite simple, the Undertaker doesn't scare him, nobody scares Bam Bam Bigelow. Bigelow believes that he's going to wipe The Undertaker out and this Sunday it will be The Undertaker who will rest in peace. The lights went out and a casket is there at ringside. The lights were back on and Bigelow and Dibiase don't know what to make of this. Bigelow goes over to the casket and opens it and The Undertaker pops out and grabs Bigelow by the throat. They brawl near ringside and into the ring and Undertaker hits a flying clothesline on Bigelow. Undertaker signals for a chokeslam until Lex Luger and IRS come down for the save. Bigelow gets a chair near ringside and Luger and IRS hold on to The Undertaker. Bam Bam rams the chair right into the gut of The Undertaker and then whacks the chair across the back of The Undertaker. Bigelow places a chair across the face of The Undertaker, he's going up for a moonsault. Bigelow flies through the air and The Undertaker sits up as Bigelow goes crashing face first into the mat and the crowd goes nuts. The Million Dollar Corporation flee the ring and The Undertaker stalks them. The Corporation all looked shocked and scared and retreat to the back. Undertaker stands near the aisle and does his cut throat motion as his music plays.

WrestleMania Report with Sunny. Just announced for WrestleMania is Sycho Sid vs Savio Vega. Sunny goes over the final card for WrestleMania. We then hear pre recorded comments from Tatanka. Tatanka was looking for revenge on Hunter after what Hunter did to him on Wrestling Challenge. Tatanka vows to shut Hunter up. This Sunday at WrestleMania, Tatanka promises to hand Hunter his first defeat here in the WWF. Sunny says all these great matches make up the greatest card in the history of the WWF and we will also see plenty of celebrities this Sunday at WrestleMania. Pamela Anderson, Jennifer McCarthy, Lawrence Taylor and Salt n Pepa will all be a part of the biggest night of the year known as WrestleMania this Sunday. Sunny can't wait. Double J's music hits so we go back to ringside.



Match 3 | WWF Title Match| Bret Hart (c) vs Jeff Jarrett
Jeff Jarrett made his way down to the ring with The Road Dogg. Bret Hart then came down to a huge ovation. Bret and Jarrett lock up and Bret with a wristlock on Jarrett. Jarrett with a reversal, Jarrett grabs a handful of Bret's hair to take him down. Jarrett starts strutting in the ring, Bret got back up and hammers away at Double J. Jarrett rolls out of the ring. Jarrett gets back in and they lock up again and Bret with a headlock takedown on Jarrett. Jarrett gets back to his feet and Bret sends Jarrett to the ropes and tries a hiptoss, Bret blocks and sends Jarrett down to the mat with a hiptoss. Bret taking it to Jarrett in the early going. Bret went back to the arm until Jarrett pokes Bret in the eyes and whips Bret to the corner and follows up with a reverse elbow. Jarrett puts the boots to Bret and then delivers a dropkick and gets a 2 count. Jarrett with a back suplex and gets a near fall. During the match Razor Ramon came down to do commentary. In less than one week's time we expect to see the greatest WrestleMania of all time. Razor had a hard fought win over Papa Shango earlier on. The King asks Razor what is he doing out here and Razor tells King that he's' here to get a birds eye view of his opponent this Sunday at WrestleMania. Plus he's also going to keep an eye out on The Road Dogg. Razor states that Bret's going in this Sunday for the biggest fight of his life. Jarrett sends Bret hard into the turnbuckle. Jarrett up top and connects with a double axe handle. Jarrett then hits a swinging neckbreaker and Bret kicks out at 2. Lawler tries winding Razor up telling him that this is Razor's biggest match ever, he's under tremendous pressure. If Razor blows this opportunity then it will be a long time before he gets another title shot again because there are several other more deserving contenders than him. Guys like Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart and many more stars deserve it more than guys like Razor and Diesel.

Razor knows that King tried to stir things up on The King's Court two weeks ago but if King doesn't stop running his mouth right now he's going to shut him up. King then stayed quiet. Jarrett sends Bret to the ropes, Bret counters with a sunset flip and gets a 2 count. Jarrett got up and hit a clothesline. Jarrett then goes up top and he's wasting a lot of time here posing. Jarrett going for an axe handle but Bret with a right hand to the gut. Bret with a russian legsweep. Bret then goes on the second rope and hits an elbow drop and gets a 2 count. Bret with an atomic drop followed by a clothesline. The Hitman now with a suplex and gets a 2 count, Bret hits a backbreaker and another near fall. Bret tries going for the sharpshooter, Jarrett manages to block it so Bret drops an elbow drop right in the groin of Double J. Bret then clotheslines Jarrett over the top rope. They fight outside as Razor gets up to make sure Road Dogg doesn't get involved. Jarrett reverses an irish whip and sends Bret right into Razor, oh no. Razor is down. Jarrett sends Bret back in and goes for the figure four leglock. Jarrett locks in the figure four, will Bret submit, Bret hanging in there and Bret manages to reverse the figure four into the sharpshooter. Jarrett screaming in pain and Road Dogg gets in for the save and the referee calls for the bell. Jarrett and Road Dogg beating The Hitman down and Razor gets back up and got in the ring and made the save. Bret and Razor cleaning house as Bret dumps Road Dogg over the top rope and Razor hits a right hand on Double J sending Jarrett to the floor. Bret and Razor bump into each other ready to strike but hesitate when they see each other. They have a staredown and what a showdown it will be between The Hitman and The Bad Guy this Sunday. Vince tells the fans to tune in for WrestleMania XI this Sunday as Raw went off the air.
Winner by disqualification: Bret Hart



WWF Superstars | April 1 | 1995
The Smoking Gunns and The Heavenly Bodies defeated Yokozuna, Hakushi and Eli and Jacob Blu in an 8 man tag team match when Billy Gunn pinned Eli Blu.

We hear pre-recorded comments from Men on a Mission. They explained their actions from last week. Men on a Mission felt that they don't get the respect they deserve around here. As for Oscar all he did was hold them back but now he's history and we won't be seeing him here ever in the WWF. From now on everyone's going to see a new attitude from Men on a Mission.

Jean Pierre Lefite defeated a jobber

We hear pre-recorded comments from The 123 Kid. The 123 Kid was very excited about WrestleMania. The Kid believes that he's going to come out on top when he takes on Jarrett at WrestleMania.

Tatanka defeated Henry Godwinn. During the match Hunter Hearst Helmsley came down to watch the match. Following the match Tatanka stood on the top rope and taunts Helmsley.

The Final WrestleMania report as Sunny runs down the card. We hear comments from Savio Vega. Savio knows he faces a huge challenge this Sunday but in his short time here he's already made an impact. He overcame a huge challenge when he beat the huge King Kong Bundy and now at his first WrestleMania he's going to defeat Sycho Sid.

Owen Hart cut a promo in the ring and did a mock tribute for Mr Bob Backlund as he shows a video of Backlund's greatest moments in the WWF. Owen says the fans will sure miss him after WrestleMania. Owen tells the fans that Bob Backlund used to be a great star but that was many many years ago. Once Backlund left in the 80s, The WWF moved on and infact the WWF became bigger when Backlund left. When Bob came back in 1992 after an eight year absence, it was a completely different new scene for Backlund. Backlund was never the same again. He was a loser, a washed up has been. This is the new Generation and the competition is far more stronger than it was in Backlund's era. Even the wrestlers of the new generation are far more better than the wrestlers of Backlund's era. Owen tells the fans if they think Bob is going to have a great memorable WrestleMania moment then they are stupid to believe that. Owen still thinks he doesn't get enough credit that he deserves around here. Owen reminds the fans that last year nobody believed that he could beat Bret. No one thought he had a chance but he proved everyone wrong and he beat Bret. That launched his career and now at WrestleMania 11, he's gonna end a career. By next year at WrestleMania 12, he'll be headlining WrestleMania as the WWF Champion. Owen says the WWF will easily move on without Backlund. Owen vows to do whatever it takes to keep his Intercontinental title and WrestleMania will be the end of Mr Bob Backlund's career.

Lex Luger and IRS defeated King Kong Bundy and The British Bulldog when IRS put his foot on the ropes and pinned Bundy. Gorilla Monsoon thanks everyone for joining us and tells the fans to tune in for WrestleMania tomorrow. Superstars closes with highlights from WrestleMania X with Razor Ramon winning the ladder match against Shawn Michaels, then later on that night Bret Hart defeated Yokozuna to become champion. Then Razor was among many superstars to celebrate with Bret. What a story this is because now both men will be facing each other at WrestleMania XI.

I keep getting the lingering feeling that the backstage Kliq might end up aligned on-screen at some point. Michaels and Diesel don't seem anywhere close to aligning at the moment but I'm sure those guys would want to be involved in a stable together. The main event with Razor and Bret seems to be the hardest to predict and that's always a good thing. Can't wait to see the results.

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

Great to see this thread growing and blossoming into something nice :) Haven't been following with my tight schedule as much as I'd like to but I do plan on getting a review for Wrestlemania. Best of luck and keep up the good work (Y)


WWF Championship Title Match | Bret Hart (c) vs Razor Ramon
Razor was horribly misused in the WWF, defiantly deserves a run with the belt even if it's a short one. Am a huge fan of Razor :eek: and feel that he can be a wonderful cocky champion.

Diesel vs Shawn Michaels
Hands down no question about it, Nash doesn't need the win or any sort of main event push seeing as chances are the winner of this feud goes on to be number one contender anyway. Shawn/Razor at Summerslam would be epic.

The British Bulldog vs Lex Luger
Just a personal preference, not much insight into it.

No Holds Barred Match | The Undertaker vs Bam Bam Bigelow | Special Enforcer | Rowdy Roddy Piper
Pretty obvious reason, even though his streak was only in it's begining, there is no need to end it anyway and on someone like Bam Bam Bigelow. Seeing as it's No Holds Barred, it'll be close but I see it ending with a Tombstone on a Chair.

Title vs Career | WWF Intercontinental Championship Title Match | Bob Backlund vs Owen Hart (c)
Great idea for a feud to push Owen to the stars. Backlund is decades past his prime and Owen is the future. There is no reason for this to go any other way unless someone is going to interfere, cost Owen the match and feud with him heading into the Summer... but for a Wrestlemania title match to end in a screwy finish isn't a good idea.

The 123 Kid vs Jeff Jarrett

Tag Team Championship Title Match | The Smoking Gunns (c) vs Yokozuna and Hakushi

Tatanka vs Hunter Hearst Helmsley
Hunter entering the thread with a bang, no reason to end it.

Savio Vega vs Sycho Sid

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

WWF Championship

Bret Hart (c) vs Razor Ramon

Bret wins and why? Because Bret Hart personally he is more of a champion that the WWF can personally promote while with Razor he is the type of champion that the WWF would misuse if he were to become WWF Champion and not to mention Bret is much more skilled in the ring than Razor is while Razor is a brawler, Bret is a technician, 2 contrasting styles and not to mention Bret has made a career of beating people like Razor, that and if I am not mistaken he just won the WWF Championship back not too long ago, so I can't see him losing it just yet but Razor his time will surely come, just not now


Diesel vs Shawn Michaels

Diesel wins this match-up here, you heard it here first and why? Because personally Diesel needs the win more than Shawn does especially since Diesel needs a push in the right direction and not to mention Shawn he is already on his way to the top regardless anyways, so he doesn't really need the win but Diesel does if you ask me


The British Bulldog vs Lex Luger

Personal preference for me too, to tell you the truth, but also because of what I have observed so far in this feud and not to mention Luger is also on his way to the top too


No Holds Barred Match

The Undertaker vs Bam Bam Bigelow (Special Enforcer: Rowdy Roddy Piper)

No way Taker's streak ends and especially doesn't end to someone like Bam Bam Bigelow and since you added the No Holds Barred stipulation to their match, this is going to be a real war, so I expect this match to be another match of the night but ending in a really brutal way with Taker maybe planting Bam Bam with a Tombstone Piledriver on the steel chair with Bam Bam being busted open but Bam Bam taking Taker to the limit but Piper I expect him to get involved because I know the Million Dollar Corporation are going to stick their noses in this match


WWF Intercontinental Championship (Title vs. Career)

Owen Hart (c) vs Bob Backlund

I say Owen Hart will retain the WWF Intercontinental Championship retiring Backlund because Owen needs the win more than Backlund does and not to mention ever since Owen has won the IC Title he has brought prestige back to the title, the title shines more that Owen has it but Owen regardless he is on his way to a great future while Backlund he is way past his prime


Tatanka vs Hunter Hearst Helmsley

Hunter has just burst on to the scene here in the WWF and not to mention he needs to get all the momentum he can and especially on a big stage such as WrestleMania and not to mention he is destined for greatness while Tatanka he is on a decline and has been for a while


Savio Vega vs Sycho Sid

Sid wins in a landslide, like it is not even close

Re: WWF 1995: The New Generation

WWF Championship Title Match Bret Hart (c) vs Razor Ramon:
Two of the greatest superstars of all time going at it at the biggest stage of them all. I'm a fan of both of these wrestlers but I got to go with The Bad Guy Razor Ramon. Razor Ramon was very misused in the WWF and I think it's time that he finally gets the job done.


Diesel vs Shawn Michaels
-I can see Michaels winning and will set up Michaels/Razor if you happen to give the title to Razor.

The British Bulldog vs Lex Luger

No Holds Barred Match | The Undertaker vs Bam Bam Bigelow | Special Enforcer | Rowdy Roddy Piper
This one's easy I see the Undertaker beating Bam Bam because I don't see someone like Bigelow beating him, since adding the No Holds Barred stipulation I see this match could be a candidate for Match of the Night, but with Bam Bam taking the Undertker to the limit.

Title vs Career | WWF Intercontinental Championship Title Match | Bob Backlund vs Owen Hart (c)
I'm picking Owen Hart to end the career of Bob Backlund because Owen Hart deserves the win and he's been on a roll since winning the Intercontinental Championship.

The 123 Kid vs Jeff Jarrett

Tag Team Championship Title Match | The Smoking Gunns (c) vs Yokozuna and Hakushi

Tatanka vs Hunter Hearst Helmsley
