Writers Comment:

 

Right I absolutely hate writing up match highlights. It bores me to no ends and is making me not want to continue, sooooo... I am going to try a different way to write them up and concentrate more on where my stories are heading than highlighting the fact "Shawn Michaels clotheslined Bret Hart out of the ring".

 

This may be good, it may be bad but whichever way it goes, I hate writing these matches up and cutting them into "highlights" so either the diary dies or continues. I want to have fun with it, not feel like its a chore.

MONDAY WK 2 DECEMBER 1994

 

Vince McMahon: Welcome everybody to Monday Night Raw! I'm Vince McMahon alonside Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler. We have an action packed show for you tonight.

 

Jim Ross: That's right Vince! We will have all the fallout from last week when it was revealed who was behind CCTV. I've not seen the Smoking Gunns, and from what I've been told Billy is currently out of action due to the attack last week by the group calling themselves the Triple Threat.

 

Jerry Lawler: Last week was a show to behold! Those idiot cowboys finally got what they deserved and talking of what they deserved, tonights Main Event see's that Bret Hart sympathizer British Bulldog go up against Shawn Michaels. I have it on good authority that Shawn is still seeking his female valet and there have been hundreds of thousands of applications.

 

RATING: 74 (B-)

 

==============================================

 

The music of Bret Hart comes on as he makes his way to the ring.

 

Bret Hart: Firstly let me just say that Dustin Rhodes, you and me have unfinished business. Now I hear you're not here tonight but I am telling you this Dustin, when you return to the WWF, I will be ready for you. That leads me into In Your House and our now cancelled match. I am issuing an open challenge to anyone in the back who thinks they have what it takes to step into the ring with the Excellence of Execution. Dustins injury has opened the path for someone to make that step up...

 

The music of Lex Luger starts as the crowd erupts!

 

Lex Luger: Hitman, you know I respect the hell out of you, but when it comes to that belt, there are no friends in the World Wrestling Federation! I accept the challenge. And Bret, I hope the best man wins... and that man will be Made in the USA!

 

The music of Camp Cornette comes on as Jim Cornette comes storming out onto the stage.

 

Jim Cornette: Oh I don't think so! No way is this happening. I have a 600lb monster waiting to get his hands on both of you, so Luger, you need to step aside because the man facing Bret Hart at In Your House this Sunday is going to be Yokozuna! Just you try stopping him!

 

Jack Tunney appears on the Titantron

 

Jack Tunney: Gentlemen please may I have your attention. Dustin Rhodes injury has indeed left us with a gap to fill at In Your House, but as President of the WWF let me make one thing clear, I am in charge of match making. Therefor I have decided to pit Yokozuna against Lex Luger at In Your House with the winner going on to face The Hitman in the Main Event for the title.

When they return, both Raven and the Undertaker have vanished!

 

Paul Bearer appears on the Titantron.

 

Paul Bearer: Raven is now in his eternal resting place... oh yeeees. My Undertaker has taken his very soul and sent him into the depths of hell. Let this be a warning to anyone who thinks they can torment the Deadman. Oh yeeees. The end of Raven has been...

 

Raven appears behind Paul Bearer on the Titantron and hits him with a lead pipe!

Now I'm not going to sit here and complain about how that's not fair because we're used to this sort of thing from Tunney. Stacking the deck.

MONDAY WK 3 DECEMBER 1994

 

Vince McMahon: Welcome everybody to Monday Night Raw! I'm Vince McMahon alonside Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler. We have an action packed show for you tonight.

 

Jim Ross: We will hear from Dustin Rhodes who is currently recovering from surgery. He will be live via sattelite from his home in Texas. Our Main Event tonight will see Bret Hart take on Jake Roberts! A match mde by Jack Tunney in what he calls a "warm-up" match for the Hitman before Sundays In Your House PPV event.

==============================================

 

The music of Lex Luger comes on as he and Barry Windham make their way to the ring. The crowd are going nuts.

 

Lex Luger: Ssshh sssshh. Calm down. Now I'm out here for a reason. It would seem that slimey toad Jim Cornette feels the need to stick his nose into my business again so instead of me and Bret Hart tearing down the house at Sundays PPV, I have to go through Yokozuna first. Well I guess if that's what's gotta happen for me to finally get my hands on the WWF title, then so be it. I don't care how big he is, because with all my fans pushing me forward, I will become the WWF Champion, and I will go on to headline Wrestlemania!

 

The music of Camp Cornette comes on as Jim Cornette comes out onto the stage with Yokozuna and Owen Hart.

 

Jim Cornette: Hey Luger, I think you've been on the sunbed too long because it's fried your brain! There is no way, NO WAY, you are going to just steamroll through this man. He is the biggest, baddest, angriest man on the planet and he will take you out in under a minute if he so chooses. You have 2 choices Luger at In Your House, you can be destroyed by the WWF's largest athlete... or you can tuck your tail between your legs and crawl back to which ever stone you came from.

 

Lex Luger: I'll go for option 3. Kicking his fat ass, your skinny ass and then becoming WWF Champion!

Billy Gunn: HEY! Where you going? Get back in this ring and face us like men! For months you've done nothing but cheap shot, hide behind masks and act like cowards! This Sunday... we're taking back OUR titles and breaking all of you in half! I'm mad... and that's something you didn't want!

Raven comes out and sits in the turnbuckle, surrounded by his Cult.

 

Raven: Last week the Undertaker tried to abduct me. He claims he took my soul. Undertaker, your juvenile attempts to instill fear into me is a lot like your life in general. A failure. You can't take a soul when there is no such entity, and you can't make me fear you. I know what you are Undertaker, and I know who you are. You are a man who hides in shadows and darkness. A cowardly human being, as proved last week when you did nothing to save your fat little pet, Paul Bearer. I'd make sure the next time you try to kidnap someone, you lock the door! When the dark shroud of deceit is lifted, these people will see you as I do. Quote the Raven, Nevermore.

 

RATING: 66 (C+)

 

==============================================

 

Vince McMahon: I have just been informed that it is now time to hear from Dustin Rhodes. Dustin, are you there?

 

Dustin Rhodes: I'm here McMahon. Let me first address your champion, the Hitman, Bret Hart. Hart you are the reason for me sitting here at home instead of being there kicking teeth down throats and when I get back, you'll be the first person on my hitlist. Injuring me was the worst mistake of your life Hitman and mark my words, you will pay dearly. I'd also like to bring up Brets brother Owen. You see he is just as much to blame and he will be dealt with in the same manner. Fighting by myself is not a problem, like I've said before I don't play well with others, but the fact you crossed me, that angers me beyond anything else.

 

Vince McMahon: Dustin, can I ask, how long you have been told to take?

 

Dustin Rhodes: You can ask McMahon, but there is no answer. Could be weeks, could be months. All I know is that when I do come back, The Harts are going to be broken!

I actually like the new write up style. If that's what it takes to continue this diary, then so be it. I'm loving the elevation of Luger to a title shot. For some reason, I think a Hart Bros. vs Luger/Rhodes feud would be good. The undercard is coming along very nicely as well. Great stuff man!

Thanks. Glad you're still enjoying it. I was a bit lost when Rhodes went injured - didn't know how I was going to proceed with the title situation. He should be back for the Rumble... if not, I have a back-up plan in place this time.

Vince McMahon: Welcome everybody to Monday Night Raw! I'm Vince McMahon alonside "Good Ol' JR" Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler. We will be bringing you all the fallout from last nights In Your House Event.

The music of Bret Hart comes on as he and Razor Ramon make their way to the ring.

Michaels, it doesn't matter if you bring out Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair or Barry Horowitz, the outcome is going to be the same. The Bad Guy and The Hitman standing over 2 broken bodies. And come Royal Rumble, I take that Intercontinental Title from you.

 

Bret Hart: Shawn, you call yourself the Heartbreak Kid, the Boy Toy. Well I just call you stupid and arrogant.A wise man once told me "Bret, the more they build themselves up, the bigger their eventual fall" and Michaels, your fall is going to be huge! As Razor says, bring whoever you want, but at the end of it all, as the dust settles, it will be Razor Ramon & Bret Hart having their hands raised.

News From Titan Towers...

 

Bret Hart just snubbed a $175,000 a month contract, that includes Creative Control, Travel Expenses, 50% PPV, 50% Merch to join WCW! Vince McMahon won't bid any more than that so it looks as though a new Champion will be crowned.

MONDAY WK 1 JANUARY 1995

 

Vince McMahon: Welcome everybody to the first Monday Night Raw of 1995! I'm Vince McMahon alongside my broadcast colleagues Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler. Tonight will be one for the ages as the huge Yokozuna takes on Bret Hart in our main event!

 

Jim Ross: And let's not forget Vince, Shawn Michaels will be taking on "Made in the USA" Lex Luger! We will also hear Ravens response to the challenge laid down to him last week by the Undertaker!

 

Jerry Lawler: Oh I can't wait! Bret Hart and Lex Luger both coming to an end tonight. To be honest, after the beating Shawn Michaels and I gave Bret Hart and Razor last week, I'm surprised either one of them is here tonight. I don't know if I mentioned it or not, but I'm not Bret Harts biggest fan.

 

Jim Ross: On more than one occassion King.

 

RATING: 82 (B)

 

==============================================

 

The music of Randy Savage comes on as he makes his way to the ring.

 

Jerry Lawler: Now what does this idiot want? He's not scheduled to be here tonight.

 

Randy Savage: Yeah! You people are electric tonight. Now I've got something on my mind, something that can't wait. You see at the last big event on pay-per-view, Shane Douglas sucker punched me and then tried to take me out with a chair. Then last week he decided to get involved again in the Macho Mans business, and if theres one thing I can't stand, it's a meddler! Now Douglas, you and I are going to meet again, I'm sure of it. You better hope we aren't in the ring at the same time during the Rumble, because the Macho Man will kick your butt all over the arena. Yeah! I do not...

 

Shane Douglas music hits as "The Franchise" makes his way down the ramp.

 

Shane Douglas: Blah, blah, blah... do you ever listen to yourself Savage? You sound like a complete moron! So you pinned me, big deal. I left the ring on my own 2 feet, and you left on a stretcher! Now I don't call myself the Franchise to sell T-shirts, or to make the crowd love me, I call myself the Franchise because that is what I am. The Franchise player of the WWF. I am everything you and your buddy Hogan wished you could be. I'm talented, I'm well educated and I am the gift to each woman here from god himself! Haha. I gave you the opportunity to leave the WWF unscathed Savage, but you chose to stick around, so now I'm going to end you and your legacy.

 

Randy Savage: You talk a big game Douglas, but lets see if you have the guts to step in this ring with me again. I will wipe the floor with you. Oooooooh Yeaaaah! Dig it!

 

Shane Douglas smiles, shakes his head and walks off to the back as savage plays to the crowd.

 

RATING: 76 (B-)

As we return from the break, Raven is sitting in the ring corner with the other members of his cult milling about the ring.

 

Raven: The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time. The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of harm once you are dead. Undertaker I heard what you had to say last week, and it made me think about the mortality of man, and more specific, the moratality of myself. You think that by challenging me to a casket match, you will somehow provoke a fear in me, that I'll back down and return to the bleak existence of my previous life. A life I spent years trying to avoid, and subsequently had forced upon me. Undertaker, make no mistakes for the Royal Rumble is your last stand, and it will not be me who will end the night trapped in a wooden casket. It will be you, and I shall finally put an end to your legend, to your mythic like stature and show the world once and for all that you are just a man like all others. Quote the Raven, Nevermore.

Good stuff. So what is Dustin's injury again? And what is the situation w Bret? If it's a super surprise I'll hold out, but I have a feeling he'll be losing the strap sooner rather than later, which sucks because he truly is "The Franchise".

 

But just like the Nash death, that provides an exciting random turn of events and poses an interesting challenge. There's still a good amount of talent on the roster, as well as some hidden gems outside the Fed. And a good worker or 2 can always be poached from the competition when the time is right. Obviiously though, HBK is the favorite to be next top guy. Can't wait to see what happens!

Rhodes broke his ankle. Doesn't look like he'll be back for the Rumble. I couldn't use him in the game, but used some creative licence with the dynasty to have him cost Bret & Razor their match.

 

The situation with Bret... that's a wait and see moment. :)

 

Next Edition of Raw...

 

Chris Candido vs. Bart Gunn

British Bulldog vs. Rick Martel

Razor Ramon vs. Shane Douglas

Lex Luger & Barry Windham vs. Owen Hart & Jim Neidhart
