Date: April 21, 1996

Location: Omaha, Nebraska

Attendance: 18,540

Ticket Sales: $1,112,400

Pay Per View Revenue: $4,175,000

Announcers: Jim Ross and Vince McMahon

Voice Over- The World Wrestling Federation for over fifty years the revolutionary force in sports entertainment.

In Your House "Pride And Violence" opens up with a video package highlighting the feud between the "Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels and "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel. It shows how Diesel first came into the World Wrestling Federation as Shawn Michaels' bodyguard. It shows how both men worked together as a team until Diesel won the WWF Championship and he and Michaels went their separate ways until last year when Diesel saved Michaels from a attack at the hands of Sycho Sid. The video goes over how Shawn Michaels returned to the WWF this year and won the Royal Rumble by eliminating his friend Diesel. The video also shows how Diesel turned on Shawn Michaels in March. We're shown Shawn Michaels' WWF Championship win at Wrestlemania XII and how Diesel and Michaels have come to blows as of late. The video ends with a shot of Michaels posing when they were friends and a shot of both Michaels and Diesel staring each other down with hate in their eyes. Once the video ends, We're taken inside the Civic Auditorium where pyros go off from the rafters and from inside the ring as the rabid crowd goes wild cheering. We're shown the attendance number for tonight's event which is 18,540 fans in attendance for In Your House "Pride And Violence"! The camera pans out through out the arena with the fans continuing going wild cheering. We get a shot of the ring and then the entrance way before we're taken over to our announce position where Vince McMahon and Jim Ross are standing by.

Vince McMahon- Welcome everyone to In Your House "Pride And Violence"! We are live in beautiful Omaha, Nebraska where we have been sold out for weeks in anticipation for this huge event! Tickets are sold out and there's not a seat to be found! Over 18,000 fans on hand in the Civic Auditorium for what will be another huge World Wrestling Federation Pay Per View extravaganza! I'm Vince McMahon alongside Jim Ross and what a night this will be. Eight huge matches, Three titles on the line and the return of the Ultimate Warrior and Bret Hart's in ring return! All this tonight in the NEW WWF GENERATION!

Jim Ross- Vince I have never seen a crowd like this one. Over 18,000 fans on hand for what should be a huge event. I was making my rounds in the locker rooms tonight and everyone tonight is in a foul mood. This will be a very violent event in my view. Everyone is determined to come out on top and tonight I think we're going to see something very, very special.

Vince McMahon- Nobody puts on a Pay Per View like the World Wrestling Federation that's for sure. And fans tonight it's the biggest main event ever. The "Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels takes on "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel for the WWF Championship. This one is fueled with hate and alot of pride so to speak Jim Ross.

Jim Ross- I saw both Michaels and Diesel earlier tonight and these two men are in a very serious mood. They both know what's at stake here tonight. It's about so much more than the World Wrestling Federation Champion. It's about a whole lot of pride. Both these men are going to pull out all the stops here tonight. They're not friends anymore and I don't think they'll ever be friends again.

Vince McMahon- Both men are known for going all out when a title is on the line and we all know that Diesel is intent on becoming the champion once again. Michaels on the other hand wants revenge on Diesel for betraying him. Tonight Bret "The Hitman" Hart also makes his in ring return. Bret Hart hasn't been in action since Wrestlemania XII and tonight he takes on the man they call Vader.

Jim Ross- I can't wait to see the big Hart/Vader showdown. These two men both claim that they're going to win. Hart is not one hundred percent after being attacked this past Monday night and suffering the Vader Bomb. I can't wait to see Bret Hart get even with Vader. But the question is whether or not "The Hitman" can take Vader. Or is Vader too much for Hart?

Vince McMahon- Tonight we're also going to see the return of former World Wrestling Federation superstar the Ultimate Warrior! And the fans have been wanting to see the return of the Warrior for ages!

Jim Ross- This crowd and everyone at home has been waiting to see the return of Ultimate Warrior. The Warrior is back and tonight he takes on a very angry and determined Chris Candido. Warrior isn't going anywhere. He's in the World Wrestling Federation and that's where he's going to stay.

Vince McMahon- He certainly will, Candido has said that no one takes him seriously and he promises to beat the Warrior and to end the Warrior's career once and for all in the World Wrestling Federation before it even starts again.

Jim Ross- Chris Candido seems like he's off his rocker so to speak and Vince I think he has the potential to beat Ultimate Warrior because no one has seen the Warrior. We don't even know if he's arrived yet. We have no idea in what kind of shape The Warrior is in.

Vince McMahon- Fans our first match of the evening will be Al Snow taking on Hakushi. And as of late Al Snow has really been on a war path in the World Wrestling Federation. And this past Friday night he attacked Hakushi after Hakushi's match for no reason! Al Snow has been very violent since his return.

Jim Ross- Al Snow is a mad man and I think he's been pushed over the edge. I have no idea what's causing this match to snap like this. But tonight Hakushi won't be laying down to Snow.

Vince McMahon- Lets take you to the ring for some great wrestling action between two stars in the New WWF Generation!

Winner by Submission: Al Snow

85, 78, 92 ***3/4

Vince McMahon- What a match up! What a great showing by these two men here in the NEW WWF GENERATION! Al Snow comes out on top with the Million Dollar Dream!

Jim Ross- I'll tell you what Vince, That Million Dollar Dream hold is a very deadly maneuver. It could cause some very serious damage and luckily Al Snow broke the hold. Al Snow continues to impress me each time I see him in the ring. Al Snow is destined to become something very, Very special here in the World Wrestling Federation.

Vince McMahon- Al Snow has been racking up wins ever since making his debut at the Royal Rumble and tonight he's beaten Hakushi who holds a victory over some of the best talent in the world today. Al Snow is a technical marvel.

Jim Ross- He most certainly is and in my view I think we'll be seeing Al Snow holding some gold very soon.

Vince McMahon- It could happen because anything and I mean anything can happen in the New WWF Generation. These two men are great young talent and you'll only get to watch these two men in the World Wrestling Federation.

Jim Ross- Yeah Vince, Al Snow and Hakushi are two of the studs that we have in the WWF that won't hold anything back. The WWF is all about action unlike another federation.

Vince McMahon- And fans coming up next it's a battle for the WWF Tag Team Championship. Owen Hart and British Bulldog put the gold on the line against the Smoking Gunns. And it was Owen Hart and British Bulldog who beat the Smoking Gunns for the titles in February.

Jim Ross- Owen Hart and British Bulldog are certainly a great tag team but I don't like the way they won the titles and how they managed to keep the titles thanks to James E. Cornette and their sneaky cheating ways. Hart and Bulldog have been very lucky to keep the titles but tonight we all know that Billy and Bart are going to be bringing everything to the table.

Vince McMahon- Owen Hart and British Bulldog have beaten the Smoking Gunns, The Godwinns and every other tag team that's been put in the ring with them. But the Smoking Gunns did beat Owen Hart and British Bulldog leading to this match up.

Jim Ross- Tonight I think it's going to happen. Tonight I think we're going to have new tag team champions as long as James E. Cornette keeps his nose out of this one.

Vince McMahon- Fans lets take a look at the tag team of Owen Hart and British Bulldog!

:::::::::::::::::::: We're shown a video highlight over the dominance of Owen Hart and British Bulldog. Since winning the gold in February, Owen and Bulldog have beaten every team who's challenged them for the titles.

Winners by Pin Fall and STILL World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions: Owen Hart and British Bulldog

86, 85, 87 ***3/4

Vince McMahon- No! What a travesty of justice! The Smoking Gunns had the titles won! Bulldog had to use the tights to get the job done! What a dirty rotten cheater! Who is going to be able to take the belts off of around Owen Hart's and Bulldog's waists?

Jim Ross- This isn't right! It's not by God fair the way these cowards keep the titles every time! Billy had things right where he wanted! Bulldog had to resort to using a hand full of tights to get the job done on Billy Gunn! Owen Hart and British Bulldog are no good cheaters! Damn them!

Vince McMahon- I'm sure President Monsoon was watching this one. And I'm sure he won't let Owen and Bulldog get away with their cheating ways any longer.

Jim Ross- I hope President Monsoon was watching this one. Owen Hart and British Bulldog do not deserve to hold those titles! They're always cheating! And I hope someday it catches up to them!

Vince McMahon- Up next it's going to be another title match up, It'll be Steve Austin taking on "The Bad Guy" Razor Ramon for the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Steve Austin holds a victory over Razor Ramon and tonight the question is can he do it for the title?

Jim Ross- Austin does hold a victory over Razor Ramon but lets not forget it took a low blow to take down "The Bad Guy". Tonight Austin is going to be as desperate as ever because the Intercontinental Championship will be on the line. Lets not forget that Austin is a member of The Corporation.

Vince McMahon- Al Snow of The Corporation was victorious earlier tonight and can The Corporation rack up another big win? Fans here's a look at how these two got together for In Your House.

:::::::::::::::::::: A video package is shown over the whole situation between Razor Ramon and Steve Austin. It was just a few weeks ago when Austin pinned Ramon thanks to a low blow and the Stone Cold Stunner!

Jim Ross- What a great showing by both these young studs. In the end it was Hunter Hearst Helmsley BARELY being able to beat Mero. What a match up here tonight.

Vince McMahon- Hunter Hearst Helmsley nailed the Pedigree out of pure desperation and somehow he was able to roll over on top of Marc Mero to score the win. Hunter Hearst Helmsley is certainly going to go places now after this huge win.

Jim Ross- He certainly will Vince, I don't like the son of a gun but he earned this win. He beat Marc Mero fair and square in the center of the ring tonight. Which not many people have done.

Vince McMahon- And up next it's the return of the Ultimate Warrior! It's what the fans have been waiting to see for a very long time. And what kind of condition is the Ultimate Warrior in? We haven't seen Warrior for years here in a WWF ring!

Jim Ross- The fans have been wanting to see the Ultimate Warrior back in the ring for ages and now the time has come. Lots of rumors on what kind of condition he's in.

Vince McMahon- Ultimate Warrior is a former WWF and WWF Intercontinental champion. He's beaten all the big names but tonight he takes on Chris Candido who wants to beat the Warrior. Candido says he's going to make a name for himself tonight!

Jim Ross- Chris Candido does have the talent to do it, But there has never been a force as awesome as the Ultimate Warrior. It's going to be something interesting in my view.

Vince McMahon- Fans lets take a look at the Ultimate Warrior!

:::::::::::::::::::: We're shown a video over the career of the Ultimate Warrior here in the World Wrestling Federation. It shows some famous Warrior footage including his wins over Randy Savage and Hulk Hogan. The video ends with the Warrior's logo being shown. ::::::::::::::::::::

74, 77, 70 *3/4

Ultimate Warrior debuted his new gimmick (Power and paint), it got a positive response.

Vince McMahon- UNBELIEVABLE! The Ultimate Warrior is back! He disposed of Chris Candido quite easily! Listen to these fans! What a return from the Ultimate Warrior!

Jim Ross- I have never seen anyone destroy an opponent like this. Ultimate Warrior kicked some butt here. What a great return by the Ultimate Warrior.

Vince McMahon- You have to wonder what will happen in the WWF now that the Ultimate Warrior is back. He will certainly mix it up with guys like Diesel, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, Undertaker and many of the other stars in the NEW WWF GENERATION!

Jim Ross- Warrior will no doubt be in the title scene. I can't wait to see Warrior face those big stars that the World Wrestling Federation already has.

Vince McMahon- And coming up next it's a big match up. Bret "The Hitman" Hart takes on Vader. And this one is what alot of people have come to see. But the question is whether or not Bret Hart will be able to fight due to taking the Vader Bomb last week.

Jim Ross- I don't think Bret Hart is anywhere near being one hundred percent but he's going to have to suck it up tonight. This is Bret Hart's first match back since Wrestlemania XII when he lost the WWF Champion to the "Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels.

Vince McMahon- Lets not forget that Vader has James E. Cornette in his corner. Cornette has proven to be a factor in some of Vader's matches in the past.

Jim Ross- I hope Cornette lets it stay one on one. Vader can fight his own battles!

Vince McMahon- Fans lets take a look at the damage the man they Vader has done since debuting in the World Wrestling Federation!

:::::::::::::::::::: We're shown a video package over the destruction Vader has caused since debuting in the WWF. It shows how he destroyed Yokozuna at Wrestlemania XII and put the big man out of action. It shows random footage of Vader's powerbomb and his Vader Bomb.

Winners by Pin Fall: Sycho Sid and Undertaker

77, 78, 76 **1/4

Vince McMahon- Undertaker and Sycho Sid win! What dominance on the part of Undertaker and Sid! I have never seen anyone dominate three men like those two men did here tonight.

Jim Ross- Sid and Undertaker were able to work together as a unit tonight and beat The Corporation. Sycho Sid pinned Crush here tonight and I don't think this issue between Sid and The Corporation is done yet.

Vince McMahon- Sid is a former member of The Corporation and he says he wants to wipe the group out. And fans up next it's the huge main event. The WWF Champion the "Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels takes on "Big Daddy Cool". And this one is fueled by alot of hate and violence. And alot of pride Jim Ross.

Jim Ross- Michaels and Diesel were friends at one time but that's no more. These two men truly do hate each other. It's for the WWF Championship but there's so much more than that at stake. These two men are going to be going at it full speed ahead. They're going to want to prove that they are truly the best the WWF has.

Vince McMahon- Diesel claims that Michaels has no chance of beating him. At last year's Wrestlemania, Diesel did beat Michaels. But times have changed. Michaels is the solid fan favorite tonight. And he is the WWF Champion.

Jim Ross- This ain't going to be pretty. It's going to be a fight. The question is whether or not Michaels will be able to stand toe to toe with "The Genetic Wonder" Diesel.

Vince McMahon- Here's a look at these two men and how these two men got together for tonight's huge event!

:::::::::::::::::::: The same video package from the beginning of the show is shown. Tonight it's all or nothing for both Michaels and Diesel. Who will win it? Who will walk out as the champion? ::::::::::::::::::::

Very nice PPV Hewey. Loved the way you wrote your matches out and everything. One little thing that sort of bothers me though is that some, if not most, of the matches are too predictable. When I post guesses for who will win PPV matches, I usualy go with the ones that people wouldnt expect at it surprises them more. Other than that, great diary.

Really good PPV. Alot of the matches were really good, especially the main event and Razor/Austin. Cant believe Razor held on to the title after all that. Hunter/Mero was good too. I can definately see a Sid/Taker feud coming, and Im glad to see Diesel get a real mean streak and see his feud with HBK continued.

PS- Who won the prediction contest?

We're just twenty four hours removed from WWF In Your House. Last night Shawn Michaels shocked the world by beating his former friend Diesel in the middle of the ring. But afterwards it was a mock shocking scene. Diesel destroyed Michaels putting Michaels through the announce table with the Jackknife Powerbomb! We're going to hear from Diesel tonight on why he beat down Michaels after Michaels beat him in the center of the ring. What does Diesel have to say?

Tonight a superstar returns to the WWF. Rick Martel makes his return to the ring! Martel hasn't been in a WWF ring since early 1995! And tonight Martel takes on a very hungry Chris Candido!

Ultimate Warrior returned last night and quickly disposed of Chris Candido. Tonight we will hear from Ultimate Warrior. What does the Warrior have to say?

In the main event we'll see a six men tag team match up! Razor Ramon teams with Sycho Sid and Undertaker to face Crush, Sean Waltman and Steve Austin of The Corporation!

Matches for Monday Night Raw

Owen Hart and British Bulldog defend the WWF Tag Team Championship against the Smoking Gunns in a rematch from In Your House!

Rick Martel returns to the ring to face Chris Candido!

Goldust takes on Marc Mero!

Jim Neidhart faces Hunter Hearst Helmsley!

Plus the huge six men tag team main event! We'll also hear from Diesel, Bret Hart, Ultimate Warrior! All this and much more!

Just as good PPV as it ever can be! I mean this wasn't your best of the all time, but I think it didn't even try to be. After all, it was "only" IYH. This, I liked. It was SO realistic! ME was great and so were the other matches, too. Warrior's debut was so real that I almost could see him tossing Candido aroung like a doll.

Great PPV because of it's realism.

<EDIT> Oh, and RAW's card is looking such a good, by the way.

Announcers: Jim Ross and Vince McMahon

Monday Night Raw opens up with it's regular video package and then we're taken inside the arena where pyro shoots off. We're taken to the announce position where Jim Ross and Vince McMahon are standing by. They hype up tonight's main event of Sycho Sid, Razor Ramon and Undertaker teaming up to face Sean Waltman, Steve Austin and Crush in a huge six men tag team match up!

World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Championship

Smoking Gunns Vs. Owen Hart and British Bulldog© with James E. Cornette

During the match the announcers said that Shawn Michaels wouldn't be here tonight due to injuries sustained at In Your House last night. McMahon and Ross said that Michaels would show up for Friday Night Mayhem this Friday night. This is a rematch from last night's match. The Gunns started off hot taking out the champions with clotheslines and then throwing Bulldog and Owen out to the floor! Owen and Bulldog tried to run out but the referee announced that if they were counted out then the titles would go to the Smoking Gunns! The champions couldn't believe it! But Owen and Bulldog soon took control of the match after some dirty tricks. Owen and Bulldog isolated the older Gunn brother, Bart. Owen and Bulldog gave Bart a real beating but they couldn't put Bart away. Owen went for the Sharpshooter several times but Bart kept breaking it. Bulldog used his power advantage over Bart but Davey Boy Smith couldn't put Bart away either. Bart was able to make the hot tag to Billy after taking both Owen and Bulldog out with a pair of clotheslines! Billy came into the ring and cleaned house! Billy took out Bulldog with a amazing tilt a whirl back breaker and tossed Owen like a rag doll! The Smoking Gunns hit Bulldog with their back suplex/drop kick combo! Owen got thrown out to the floor and the Gunns delivered the Sidewinder to Bulldog! Billy hooked the legs but before the three count could be made, Cornette ran in and smacked Bart with the racket causing a disqualification! The fans booed as Owen and Bulldog got disqualified but they got to keep their titles! Bulldog, Owen and Cornette fled to the back with the gold! The Smoking Gunns have been screwed again by Owen Hart and British Bulldog!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

No more DIESEL!

Monday Night Raw returns from the commercial break with the music of "Big Daddy Cool" Diesel hitting the arena to huge heat from the fans. Diesel makes his way down to the ring as Ross and McMahon hype Diesel's brutal attack on the "Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels just twenty four hours ago at In Your House. Diesel poses inside the ring while pyros go off from the rafters and from the turnbuckles. Diesel is handed a microphone while the fans chant "HBK".

Diesel- All you people need to shut up and listen to what I got to say. You know I arrived in this pathetic town today and all you people were asking why did I beat down Shawn? Why did I smack him with a chair upside the head? Why'd I put him through the announce table? The answer is quite simple. I do as I please. Shawn you did beat me last night. But who cares? It doesn't matter who wins the battle. What matters is who wins the war "Heart Break Kid". And last night I won the war. I took you out once and for all! I heard the announcers say that you will here this Friday night but come on Shawn! You don't want anymore of this! You can show up this Friday night and fork the World Wrestling Federation Championship over to me. Shawn last night I destroyed you. Sure you got me with the kick but in the end I was the last man standing! And you know what? I came here to address something else. I thought about this after I beat you down like a dog last night Shawn, And the name "Diesel". Why am I still going by "Diesel"? You brought me in as Diesel and treated me like a slave! Well I got news for everyone in the World Wrestling Federation. I'm not your slave anymore! I'm a former WWF Champion! I'm the best in the company! I'm going to go by my real name! Kevin Nash! The name of the man who is the most dominate superstar in the WWF! Diesel is done! Diesel was Shawn's bodyguard!

The crowd boos and chant "we want Shawn".

Kevin Nash- Shut up! All you people shut the hell up! Shawn isn't here! He'll never be the same again! I owned him last night! Shawn I truly do hate you. You made me a lackey! And when I went off on my own and became a huge star you got jealous! Last night you beat me but that doesn't matter. You got lucky! Kevin Nash is in charge now! No one in the WWF is going to be able to stop me! Shawn this Friday night if you show up I can promise to beat you down again. Shawn your time is over and Kevin Nash's time has come! You can either give me the title or you can step into the ring with me again and get your butt kicked! Shawn it's your choice. I'll see you this Friday night. And as far as tonight goes, I think I might need to cause some trouble tonight!

Kevin Nash's music hits the arena to boos as Nash poses. The announcers hype a special interview with a WWF superstar coming up next!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Interview with Rick Martel

We return from the commercial break with Dok Hendrix standing by with Rick Martel!

Dok Hendrix- I'm standing by with "The Model" Rick Martel and Rick......

Rick Martel- Hang on just a minute Dok Hendrix! There ain't no model around here! I'm Rick Martel and Rick Martel only! No more model! No more wearing silly outfits! It's all business with me! I came back to the World Wrestling Federation to prove that I still have something in this forty year old tank! I heard all about the new generation and all that nonsense! Well lets see how well these new kids can do with me! It's time for Rick Martel to return and to be the best!

Dok Hendrix- Tonight you take on Chris Candido a young superstar with alot of potential.

Rick Martel- Potential doesn't get you anywhere Dok Hendrix! It's skills that make you a big time player! And Chris Candido doesn't have what it takes to become anything! He's a joke! He got destroyed by the Warrior in less than a minute! Candido is a hungry young kid but he doesn't have what it takes to beat me. Chris Candido is a nobody! If you think I'm losing to this moron then you got another thing coming!

Dok Hendrix- Rick Martel what are your plans now that you have returned to the World Wrestling Federation?

Rick Martel- My plan is very simple. It's to go to the top of the World Wrestling Federation. It's to prove that even at forty I can still be the best this company has! Another company offered me a deal but I don't want to go to a company where the guys are over fifty and still going! I want to wrestle with the young talent in the WWF! That's why I am here. And I will be the World Wrestling Federation champion this time around! I won't let my name be recognized as "the model". Rick Martel is all about winning from now on!

Dok Hendrix- Thanks for the comments. Fans lets take you to the ring where Rick Martel's opponent Chris Candido is waiting!

Rick Martel debuted his new gimmick (cocky), it got a positive response.

Rick Martel Vs. Chris Candido

Pretty good match here but the crowd wasn't into it all that much. It was hard to tell who was the bad guy so to speak since Martel was acting as cocky as ever and playing a tweener at the same time. Martel gave it to Candido right from the beginning proving that he still has something left in the tank so to speak. Martel beat Candido down in the corner with chops. Candido got a few shots in on Martel but he couldn't put away Martel. Martel took Candido out with a devastating release german suplex and locked Candido into the Québec Crab! Candido quickly tapped out giving Rick Martel the win! Afterwards, Martel posed to a mixed reaction. McMahon was saying that Martel is in the best shape of his entire career!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Marc Mero Vs. Goldust with Marlena

These two have fought many times within the last month. And it was the same match from the last time they fought. Goldust jumped Mero from behind and both men ended up brawling out on the floor with Goldust sending Mero into the steel steps and then ramming Mero into the steel ring post! Goldust showed his aggressive side by beating down Mero in the corner and choking "The Wildman". Marlena got involved as well blowing cigar smoke into Mero's eyes blinding Mero for awhile as Goldust distracted the referee. Mero was able to make the come back after driving Goldust down to the canvas with a back suplex. Mero hit Goldust with his usual maneuvers coming close to putting the former Intercontinental champion away. Mero finished Goldust off with a big samoan drop, Mero then headed up top and connected with the Wild thing to put Goldust away for the 1,2,3! Afterwards, Marc Mero posed celebrating his win.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Cactus Jack is in the World Wrestling Federation!

We return from the commercial break with our cameras taking us up to the stands where we see a man in the crowd with a microphone.... NO WAIT! IT'S HARDCORE LEGEND CACTUS JACK! McMahon and Ross are going nuts! They have no idea what Cactus Jack is doing here in the World Wrestling Federation!

Cactus Jack- You people must be wondering what I am doing here. All you World Wrestling Federation fans might not who I am. There's some of you who do know who I am. For those who don't know, I am Cactus Jack! And I am the craziest most hardcore son b**** in the wrestling world. And you know something? It's time for me to prove it here in the WWF. All you WWF fans are used to is the niceness in the company. You fans think it's always happy and peaceful around here. The world isn't like that and I KNOW IT! Years after years I tried to come to the WWF and they wouldn't let me. I gave my body to the wrestling world! I gave half my ear for this sport! I have never truly been appreciated! No one has ever cared for me or any of my hard work. Not my friends, Not the boys in Atlanta. Not the fans in Philly. No one has ever told me that they appreciated all the work I've done. I tried meeting a couple of executives from the WWF and they threw me out of the building! I tried to talk to President Monsoon but he ignored me! He said I wasn't fit with the World Wrestling Federation style! He said that I'd be better off going back to Philly! Well I'm done with Philly! I want to become a legend in a big federation! I want to face the big stars! The WWF is the most popular wrestling organization in the world! And I want to be a WWF superstar! I want to show everyone that I am worth something! I want to show everyone that Mrs. Foley's baby boy is a superstar. Every wrestling fan in the world are a bunch of ungrateful spoiled little bastards! None of you have ever worked for anything in your entire life! No of you have ever been thrown into explosives! None of you watched your ear get thrown into a trash can like it was garbage! You people like your nice little heroes with their nice little wholesome image. You people don't want Cactus Jack in the WWF do you? Well you're going to get Cactus Jack in the WWF! I don't care if security tosses me out. I don't care if I get sent to jail for a entire night. Whether the WWF really wants me or not doesn't matter. I won't let my hard work go to waste! The world is a sad miserable place and Cactus Jack will make the WWF alot more miserable! I'll see you guys this Friday night! And I hope President Monsoon meets me face to face and makes me a official WWF superstar!

Cactus Jack drops the microphone down to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Cactus Jack walks out as our cameras take us to the ring.

Cactus Jack debuted his new gimmick (crazy), it got a positive response.

Hunter Hearst Helmsley Vs. Jim Neidhart

McMahon and Ross kept apologizing for Cactus Jack's language and they said that Cactus Jack is not employed by the World Wrestling Federation. The announcers also mentioned that Ahmed Johnson would return to the ring at the next In Your House and he would be facing Hunter Hearst Helmsley like it was already announced last night. Jim Neidhart easily tossed around Hunter Hearst Helmsley who did not seem to be in good shape after wrestling Marc Mero last night barely getting the win over "The Wildman". Neidhart got a couple near falls on the blue blood snob but somehow Helmsley kept kicking out. Neidhart tossed Helmsley out to the floor but it ended up favoring Helmsley who send Neidhart to the steel steps! Helmsley then rammed Neidhart head first into the steel ring post! They went back into the ring with Helmsley getting a few close near falls on "The Anvil". Helmsley went for the Pedigree but Neidhart countered and catapulted Helmsley into the turnbuckle! Neidhart hit Helmsley with a couple clotheslines but Helmsley kept kicking out. Neidhart connected with a powerslam but Helmsley again kicked out! Neidhart went for the Hart Attack but Helmsley ducked and Neidhart went crashing into the corner! Neidhart then came out of the corner right into Helmsley's Pedigree! Helmsley hooked the legs and scored the 1,2,3! Afterwards, Hunter Hearst Helmsley posed as Monday Night Raw went to a commercial break with Vince McMahon hyping a special interview with Ultimate Warrior coming up next!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Interview with Ultimate Warrior

Vince McMahon stands inside the ring with a microphone in his hands as we return from the commercial break.

Vince McMahon- Last night we saw the return of a man who's a larger than life phenomenon! That man is the Ultimate Warrior! Ladies and gentlemen allow me to introduce to you the Ultimate Warrior!

Ultimate Warrior's music hits the arena to a huge ovation from the fans. Ultimate Warrior comes running down to the ring as the Warrior symbol flashes through out the ring. Warrior gets inside the ring and shakes the ropes looking as intense as ever. The normal lights come back on as Vince McMahon prepares to speak.

Vince McMahon- Warrior there's alot of things I want to ask you. But first of all thank you for coming back to the World Wrestling Federation! Everyone of these people have wanted to see you return!

Ultimate Warrior- McMahon it's time that the Warrior has returned. There's alot of evil in the World Wrestling Federation and I have come to stop it! I have come to make sure that the evil of the world is gone! To make sure that the world doesn't rot! And I'm going to start right here in the World Wrestling Federation!

Vince McMahon- The big question everyone wants to know is where have you been? Where has the Warrior been for all these years?

Ultimate Warrior- I was in my own world Vince fighting the evil that was apart of me. I looked into my own soul and took the evil out. I went into my world and fought and hunt down the evil. My soul was a dark place where many men tried to go. In the end I was the only one who could truly stop the evil inside it. Everything is good or evil. My soul had been possed by the evilness in this world. I went into it and took it out. In the end the Warrior is all there is. Since then I have been in my world trying to figure out how to end all the evilness. That's why I came back. That's why I am back in the World Wrestling Federation. Alot of evil has happened in this company. And I'm the man who's going to end it all. I found my path back here. You can either join the fight or you can be against it. Either way the Warriors are going to win this battle! The battle for the Warrior's soul has already been won. Now it's time to save the soul of the World Wrestling Federation!

Vince McMahon- What do you mean by that? Is there one individual you're going to go after? Like you did with Chris Candido last night?

Ultimate Warrior- There's more than one person who's soul has been rotted! Chris Candido is one of them. But last night I saved him. He looked into my eyes and he knew he was in the world of the Warrior. Everyone of these people are in my world now. And in my world good wins over evil every time. In my world the evil is gone. And I have come back to the WWF to bring the good back. It's a battle against evil and this time good will prevail! That's why I'm here.

Vince McMahon- Warrior what do you think your career will be like now that you're back in the WWF?

Ultimate Warrior- It's going to be a wild ride McMahon. For so long evil has dominated the WWF and my soul. And the souls of everyone of the fans. But now I'm here to put a stop to it. I'm here to win the battle with good versus evil. And Vince the WWF will never be the same again after this battle! The Warrior is back!

Vince McMahon- Ladies and gentlemen the Ultimate Warrior!

Warrior's music plays as Warrior poses. Monday Night Raw goes to a commercial break.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Vader wants a rematch!

Bret Hart's music hits the arena to a huge ovation from the sell out crowd as "The Hitman" walks down to the ring in his street clothing. The announcers put over Bret Hart's huge win over Vader last night at In Your House. Bret Hart asks for a microphone while Vince mentions that Vader is here tonight.

Bret Hart- Last night I fought the man they call Vader. And I can honestly say it was one of the toughest fights I have ever been in. Vader picked me apart. But in the end the better wrestler won. Just like I said it would happen. Vader last night you did give me a beating but when it was all said and done only one man came out on top and that was me. I beat you. I pinned you one, two, three in the center of the ring. Vader last night was not your night and that's the way it is. And if you ever want a rematch I'll gladly give you one. Anytime, Anywhere. As far as my future goes. Now that I'm done with Vader I'd like to get my shot at the World Wrestling Federation Championship and Shawn Michaels. As former champion I should be getting my rematch. I know Kevin Nash thinks he's the number one contender but I've been waiting for a long time to get my rematch with Shawn Michaels. That is if Shawn is able to wrestle after what happened last night. If not then put me and someone else in the ring and lets see who the champion is, One way or another I will become the WWF Champion for a fourth time! And........

Bret Hart's interrupted by the sound of Vader's music which fills the arena to boos from the crowd. Vader and James E. Cornette are shown on the RAW stage. Cornette has a microphone with him.

James E. Cornette- Not so fast Hart! You aren't done with Vader! Not by a long shot! You think last night was the end of this? No way! As far as I'm concerned, This is only starting! You got lucky last night! Lets see how lucky you're going to be next time you and this man right here get into the ring. Bret Hart you did say you'd face Vader anytime, anywhere right?

Bret Hart- Of course! I don't back down from a challenge and you know it Cornette!

James E. Cornette- Good, good. We want the rematch for the next In Your House! In Your House "Aggravated Assault"! On May 19th from Florence, South Carolina! You and Vader one on one! Do you accept Hitman?

Bret Hart- Sounds good to me! I beat Vader last night and I will have no problem doing it again! Vader it's on!

James E. Cornette- Bret Hart it ain't going to be a normal match. Oh no. See I don't want Vader to get disqualified after he destroys you. And believe me he will beat you down like a dog. How about you face Vader in a No Holds Barred, Anything Goes match?

Bret Hart- No holds barred, Anything goes? Well if it's the only way to get you two off my back then I accept! Vader last night I beat you and I'll do it again! You think this little rule will change the outcome? You're mistaken! I will prove to you once and for all that I am the best there is, The best there was and the best that there ever will be!

James E. Cornette- Oh no you're mistaken Bret. At In Your House it's going to be.........

Vader- VADER TIME!

Vader's music plays as Bret Hart and Vader engage in a stare down. Monday Night Raw goes to a commercial break with both men looking on as Ross and McMahon go nuts hyping the match between them at In Your House "Aggravated Assault".

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Razor Ramon, Sycho Sid and Undertaker with Paul Bearer Vs. Crush, Sean Waltman and Steve Austin with Ted DiBiase

Wild six men tag match up here. All six men started off inside the ring going at it with the face team quickly disposing The Corporation. The face team had the upper hand in the beginning until Razor got isolated after taking a huge spinning heel kick from Waltman. The Corporation triple teamed Razor giving the Intercontinental Champion a beating. They came close to putting away "The Bad Guy" but Razor soon made the hot tag to Undertaker! Undertaker came into the ring and cleaned house! Soon all hell broke loose and all six men went at it! Ted DiBiase tried to get involved but Paul Bearer pulled him off the apron and decked him with a right hand to the face knocking DiBiase down! Sid and Crush ended up somehow being the legal men while Razor and Undertaker brawled with Waltman and Austin at the ringside area. Sid ended up Choke Slamming Crush and then drilling him with the Powerbomb to score the pin fall for his team. Afterwards, Razor, Sid, Undertaker and even Paul Bearer stood tall as The Corporation headed to the back.

WWF Slam Of The Week- Diesel puts Shawn Michaels through the announce table with the Jackknife Powerbomb! (In Your House "Pride And Violence" 4/21/96)

Kevin Nash is out of control!

We return from our final commercial break with the President of the World Wrestling Federation Gorilla Monsoon coming down to the ring. Monsoon has a microphone with him and he looks serious.

Gorilla Monsoon- When I signed up to become the President of the World Wrestling Federation I knew that there would be some tough decisions to make. I hope that I have been fair to every WWF superstar and I hope that I've made fair decisions to all you fans. And tonight I will make another decision. Concerning Kevin Nash. Last night we all saw Nash's cowardly attack on Shawn Michaels. Nash let me tell you something pal, If you ever do that again you will be fined or suspended! The World Wrestling Federation will not let you run wild and break the rules! As far as the number one contender goes, Is it Kevin Nash? I don't think so! Nash had his shot last night and he didn't get it done. But I think Shawn Michaels would thin differently. I know Michaels and the Kliq want revenge for what Nash did to him last night. So this Friday night Shawn will return. I don't what he's going to do and quite frankly I don't care. I do hope he knocks some sense into Nash. Kevin Nash if Shawn Michaels is able to compete then you will get a rematch. If Michaels is unable to ever wrestle after your attack, Then you will be suspended and never get your rematch!

Kevin Nash's music hits the arena to boos as Kevin Nash walks down from the back. President Monsoon doesn't seem too worried as the former WWF Champion gets inside the ring not looking too happy.

Gorilla Monsoon- You got something to say?

Kevin Nash- Damn right I do! Now I don't know who you think you are.

Gorilla Monsoon- I'm the president of the WWF! That's who I am!

Kevin Nash- Do you think I care? You said that if Shawn can't come back ever again then I'll be suspended and not get a shot?

Gorilla Monsoon- That's right!

Kevin Nash- You're wrong! See in my contract it does state that I do get a title shot. And that was last night.

Gorilla Monsoon- And you lost last night Kevin!

Kevin Nash- Shut up you baboon! I lost. Okay I lost. Doesn't matter. My contract states I have more than one shot! I have one more promised title shot! And I can choose when I want it! So I have chosen for my next title shot to take place it will be at the next In Your House. "Aggravated Assault". And whether or not Shawn is able to wrestle doesn't mean a damn thing to me! You can put anyone in there against me at the Pay Per View. But it'll be for the title! As it states in my contract!

Gorilla Monsoon- Fine! You can have your shot! On May 19th! But Nash if Michaels isn't able to wrestle let me assure you that I'll put you in there with the toughest guy I can find!

Kevin Nash- Gorilla you should know that there's no one tougher than me!

Gorilla Monsoon- We'll see about that! Now get out of my face! You and your whole attitude make me sick!

Kevin Nash- Fine, Don't go causing yourself to have a stroke!

Kevin Nash prepares to leave the ring..... Gorilla turns around and Nash comes back into the ring! Gorilla the turns back around and Nash boots Gorilla in the face knocking down the President of the WWF! The fans boo as Nash puts the boots to Monsoon! Nash goes out to the floor and grabs a steel chair! McMahon screams for someone to help Monsoon! Officials come running down from the back as Nash comes back into the ring with the steel chair! The officials try to come into the ring but Nash keeps them at bay with the chair! Gorilla slowly stands up and Nash plants him with a shot right over the head! (very weak one) McMahon and Ross scream for someone to do something! Nash throws the chair down and leaves the ring as the officials come and check on Gorilla. Nash heads to the back with a sick smile on his face saying he's the number one contender! Monday Night Raw goes off the air with the officials checking on Monsoon after this brutal attack at the hands of Kevin Nash who is the number one contender!

Good show. Diesel changing to Kevin Nash made sense, and I like how you brought in Cactus. Nash attacking Gorilla was good (almost like the Vader angle he did) and rematches with Nash/HBK and Vader/Hart should build up well for the next PPV.

Before Friday Night Mayhem even goes on the air we have a huge announcement! Razor Ramon has been stripped of the Intercontinental Championship! No details are known but it seems that "The Bad Guy" has had a falling out with officials in the World Wrestling Federation! Not much is known at the time except that we'll probably not see Razor Ramon in the WWF for a long time if ever! Tonight the Intercontinental title will be decided in a twenty men over the top rope battle! We have no idea who's entered but it's promised that a new Intercontinental Champion will be crowned tonight!

In the main event we'll see Bret "The Hitman" Hart take on Albert! Albert is undefeated thus far and he has beaten everyone put in his way! Tonight can he beat the excellence of execution or will he fall victim to the Sharpshooter? What kind of condition is Bret Hart in after his battle with Vader this past Sunday night? Will "The Hitman" be able to compete at all?

Coming off his violent attack on WWF President Gorilla Monsoon, Kevin Nash is scheduled to show up. We also know that Shawn Michaels is also going to show up. What will happen when these former friends get face to face? What kind of condition is Michaels in after being beat down by Nash?

Cactus Jack is a desperate man, He's a desperate man trying to become a WWF Superstar. Will Cactus Jack keep his word and show up tonight?

Masked Americans continue the American spirit!

Another video is shown for the Masked Americans. It shows Steve Lombardi and Tom Prichard going around America with their "fans". Once the video ends we're taken inside the WWF studios where Jim Ross is standing by with the Masked Americans.

Jim Ross- Well the countdown has ended. You guys are scheduled to make your debut in the World Wrestling Federation very soon. You two have gone around the country getting fans to show their support for America. Gentlemen a question everyone wants to know is why? Why did you two go around the whole country getting people show their support?

Steve Lombardi- Jim Ross it's quite simple. Tom and myself are very proud Americans. We would do anything for this country. That's what us Americans are all about. We represent what this country is all about. We're very proud men. Very proud American men. And it hurt us when the World Wrestling Federation didn't have any American heroes. Who are all the little kids from America suppose to look up to? Who are all the Americans suppose to look up to when they watch WWF programming?

Tom Prichard- It's simple. The WWF needs it Americans heroes. And gosh darn it we're the only ones who seem to care about this country! Who's out there representing America in the World Wrestling Federation? Shawn Michaels? Razor Ramon? Undertaker? All these men are looked as heroes but they're all Americans! And they don't seem to care! They take it for granted! We won't stand for that!

Jim Ross- So we know that you two men are Americans and very proud American men. But what's up with the masks? Why wear the masks?

Steve Lombardi- The masks make us stand out! We wear them because we're not your usual Americans. We wear these masks with pride. These masks are red, white and blue just like our souls! These masks were given to us by the most proud American man we have ever met. And he told us to wear these like we would be wearing all our pride for everyone to see!

Tom Prichard- The masks are what make us so great Jim Ross. It makes our American spirit that much better. The masks can never be taken off. Taking off our masks would be the worst thing to have ever happen.

Jim Ross- You two are coming to the World Wrestling Federation. What's your goals? I know you two want to show everyone American spirit but beside that?

Steve Lombardi- We're not coming for titles if that's what you mean. We don't care about wins or loses. We just want to show everyone that we're American heroes. We want to show every hard working Americans that we appreciate their hard work. That we appreciate America!

Tom Prichard- We're coming to be heroes. If we win, lose, draw whatever. It doesn't matter. The fans are going to get one hundred and ten percent of pure American pride every time we're in that ring.

Jim Ross- I thank you both for this interview and I'm looking forward to seeing what you two will be able to do here in the World Wrestling Federation.

Steve Lombardi- Thank you for this interview. And Jim Ross I promise you that you will never see anything like the Masked Americans.

Tom Prichard- Jim Ross we're going to be the best American heroes this federation has ever seen!

Interview with Rick Martel

Our cameras now take us to the interview area where Kevin Kelly is standing by with Rick Martel.

Kevin Kelly- I'm standing by with Rick Martel. And Rick Martel this Monday night you made your return to the World Wrestling Federation with a huge victory over Chris Candido. It seems that you do have alot left in the tank so to speak.

Rick Martel- Of course I do! Kevin Kelly I came back and got myself into the best shape I have ever been in. Hell I look better than half these young kids that's running around the World Wrestling Federation. I didn't come back to be shown up by these inexperienced punks!

Kevin Kelly- Tonight you take on Jean Pierre Lafitte. Lafitte is a force to be reckoned with. Ever since returning to the World Wrestling Federation in January this evil pirate has been on a rampage!

Rick Martel- Kevin Kelly you think he scares me? A evil pirate is suppose to scare me? Come on? I'm Rick Martel! I've come back. I've made the greatest return to a wrestling ring there's ever been! There's no more of this model nonsense. I came back for one reason and one reason only. And that is to get some gold around my waist. You know what really gets to me? In that battle royal earlier tonight there wasn't one guy out there who I couldn't beat. And yet the WWF didn't put me in it! That's the biggest injustice there's ever been! But you know what? Tonight I'll take out all my aggressions on Lafitte!

Kevin Kelly- Rick Martel I wouldn't take Jean Pierre Lafitte too lightly if I was you. He has been in the ring with many tough opponents!

Rick Martel- He has never been in the ring with me though! And trust me. I'm the toughest guy he'll ever get into the ring with!

Kevin Kelly- Fans up next Rick Martel takes on Jean Pierre Lafitte!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Rick Martel Vs. Jean Pierre Lafitte

Again the crowd didn't know who to cheer for, Martel played a tweener but acted like a heel most of the time. Mr. Perfect kept hyping Martel's come back as an amazing come back due to Martel being forty. Perfect said that Martel could beat all the young and older guys in the WWF. Martel showed some fire here as he took it to the evil pirate looking like he hasn't missed a step since the last time he was in the ring. Martel and Lafitte brawled out on the floor where Martel suplexed the near 300 pound Lafitte right on the outside! Martel gave Lafitte a real beating and finished off by locking Lafitte into the deadly Québec Crab for the submission win! Afterwards, Rick Martel celebrated his win by posing on the turnbuckles to a mixed reaction from the fans. Mr. Perfect hyped Martel's comeback as one of the greatest comebacks there has ever been in professional wrestling.

Cactus Jack is here!

Our cameras took us to outside the arena where we see Cactus Jack standing by!

Cactus Jack- They wouldn't let me in, They wouldn't let me meet with the WWF President! Why won't you guys let me in? Is it because I'm not wearing a suit and tie? Because I can go get one. Why isn't anyone from the WWF letting me in? All I want to do is meet President Monsoon. All I want to do is to become a World Wrestling Federation superstar. And all you fans have ruined it for me! What's the matter with Cactus Jack? One ear not good enough for you? No one appreciates my hard work. No one seems to care about Mrs. Foley's baby boy. The World Wrestling Federation doesn't seem to care. They don't want be anywhere near here. I guess if they don't want me then I'm going to have to force my way in. I'm going to have to force my way into becoming a WWF superstar! All you fans want to kill the legend of Cactus Jack. Well I'm not about to let it happen. One way or another I will get a contract signed with the World Wrestling Federation. And there is one man I want to get my hands on more than anything. One man who has mistreated me and never cared about me! I'm coming to the WWF to get this man and to take him out once and for all! You fans enjoy your show tonight, This Monday night I promise that I will invade the WWF. And when I do, The man I'm talking about will get what's coming to him!

Cactus Jack walks off as Friday Night Mayhem goes to a commercial break.

Interview with Bret Hart

Kevin Kelly- Bret Hart we just heard the comments from James E. Cornette. And come May 19th it'll be you and Vader one more time. And this time it'll be no holds barred and anything goes. Bret it seems like you're at a huge disadvantage due to Cornette claiming that Vader will pick you apart when you two get inside that ring. Will you be able to once again beat the man they call Vader?

Bret Hart- Kevin Kelly I don't know why everyone thinks I'm going to lose. I beat Vader this past Sunday night didn't I? Cornette might think Vader has the advantage because of it being no holds barred. But I been in a few no holds barred matches in the past and I have always come out on top! Vader the fact of the matter is that last Sunday night we got into that ring and I took everything you had. And when it was all said and done I was the one with my arm raised high. I was the one who won. Not you! And if you think I can't handle myself in a fight than you're wrong. Vader your size advantage doesn't mean a thing! Because when it's all said and over with, I will be the one with my arms raised high in the air once again!

Kevin Kelly- Tonight you take on the undefeated Albert. This man is a monster Bret. He's beaten everyone who's been put in the ring with him. He put Marty Jannetty on the shelf! Many people think that tonight Albert will have his way with you and beat you.

Bret Hart- I seen what Albert has done. I seen the men he's been in the ring with and the men who he's destroyed. Albert has shown no mercy inside that ring. Tonight I don't expect this to be a easy match by any means. Albert is a big man and he's strong. But I have been in the ring with bigger and badder men than Albert. Albert tonight you're going to prepare to face your first loss at the hands of the excellence of execution. When I lock you into the Sharpshooter you're going to find out why I am the best there is, The best there was and the best that there ever will be!

WWF Slam Of The Week- Sycho Sid delivers the Powerbomb to Crush up pick the win! (Monday Night Raw 4/22/96)

Will the "Heart Break Kid" be able to defend the title?

Nash poses inside the ring while pyros go off from the rafters and from the turnbuckles. Nash is handed a microphone while the fans boo the big man.

Kevin Nash- You know something? Last Monday night something unfair happened. Something that shouldn't have happened did happen. Gorilla Monsoon sadly got beat up by your's truly! And the question is do I regret it? Of course not! I did what I wanted to do and that is to knock our "beloved" President on his ass! Gorilla Monsoon I am not sorry for what I did to you. Hell if given the chance, I'd do it again! And now the big question is whether or not Shawn Michaels will return if he'll be able to wrestle again and face at at In Your House. Shawn I know you're here tonight and I noticed that you brought the WWF Championship with you. So you either have the choice to hand it over to me or to get your butt kicked on May 19th. What will it be? I know you're here so come out here and give all of the Kliq the answer! I don't have all day Michaels! Come on out here and give me the title!

The fans go wild as Shawn Michaels' music hits the arena as the "Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels walks down to the ring with the World Wrestling Federation Championship over his shoulder. Michaels gets inside the ring with the WWF Championship over his shoulder. Nash and Michaels stare each other down as the fans chant "HBK".

Kevin Nash- I'm glad you're out here. And I must say you look to be in horrible shape after I beat you down last Sunday night! And it looks like you're not in any kind of shape to face me on May 19th. So why don't you just hand that title over to me? You don't want to be put in the ring with me again Shawn! You don't want to go crashing through another announce table do you? Do you want to get hit upside the head with a steel chair? Course not! So hand the title over to me and we'll call it even! Go to another federation. You don't belong in the World Wrestling Federation anymore. "The Genetic Wonder" has passed by you Shawn. Shawn Michaels you're a dime a dozen. I'm the leader of the new generation and everyone knows it. There's no only one man capable of holding the World Wrestling Federation Championship and that's me Shawn. So hand the title over to me and you can leave the WWF for good. If not then well you're going to have to face me on May 19th. And you don't want that Shawn. So hand the belt over......

Michaels looks at the crowd who starts to boo. Michaels hands the title over to Kevin Nash! The crowd can't believe it! The fans boo as Shawn prepares to leave the ring!

Nash falls down to the canvas! Michaels takes the WWF Championship as the fans chant "HBK". Michaels grabs the microphone as Kevin Nash is laid out in the center of the ring.

The crowd cheers as Michaels exits the ring with the WWF Championship. Michaels poses on the Friday Night Mayhem entrance stage as Nash is left laid out in the center of the ring. Friday Night Mayhem goes off the air with Dok Hendrix going nuts hyping Michaels versus Nash at In Your House!

I also liked the way you brought Cactus Jack in. Crazy gimmick should be fine. I hope he'll get some good matches (with Vader, anyone?) to the big PPV's. Of course with a good build. Amount of build isn't likely a problem.

Nash vs. Michaels and Bret vs. Vader again? This may be a good idea, but IRL two big matches at consecutive Pay Per Views can't be a good thing.

I'm smelling Cactus Jack vs. Ultimate Warrior coming up! If Cactus wants to drive WWF even deeper to the misery and Warrior wants to clean the whole world, there's a perfect feud!

Razor Ramon's situation is very regrettable, what ever happened to him.
