This diary is great. I wish you updated it more. Bringing in Hart as the referee is a nice move, hopefully it gets him a title match later on. Again, give Hall the belt.

August 19, 1996 Commentators: Vince McMahon and Jim RossRight Down the MiddleRaw kicks off with the music of Bret “Hitman” Hart, who appears out from the curtain to a nice ovation from the crowd. The Hitman comes down the aisle and joins Vince McMahon in the ring.Vince: Ladies and gentlemen, Bret “Hitman” Hart! Bret, let me say that it is great to see you back here on Raw and back in the WWF, and your first responsibility apparently will be to be the special referee at SummerSlam when Shawn Michaels defends the WWF Title against Scott Hall. Bret: It’s good to be back, Vince. It’s good to be back home and to be back with all these fans. You know, after WrestleMania I went home to Calgary and I sat at home for a few months and thought. I thought about a lot of things. I thought about my family, I thought about my career, and I thought about what I wanted to do in the future. And there was a point in time where I thought I might be done with being a wrestler. But as I sat back and I watched the WWF on television with my sons, there was a burning inside me that I couldn’t ignore. There was a burning inside me that told me I was still the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be, and I wanted to get back to the top. So when Gorilla Monsoon called me up and asked me to be the special referee at SummerSlam, I saw it as the perfect opportunity to come back. And while I was at home, one of the matches I saw was Shawn Michaels against Scott Hall last month at In Your House, and I saw the referee get knocked out and the chaos that ensued and there was no clear winner. So that’s where I come in. You can rest assured that this referee wont be knocked out, this referee wont be pushed around, and I will call it right down the middle and make sure that there is a clear cut winner and WWF Champion. (85%)ConfrontationThe music of Shawn Michaels then hits the arena and the WWF Champion walks out to the ring and stands face to face with Bret Hart.HBK: Hitman, you know that no one respects you more that I do, and I apologize for interrupting, but there is something I gotta do face to face. Now I know, that despite any mutual respect we might have for each other, that there is still a bit of animosity, or perhaps unfinished business between us. WrestleMania wasn’t that long ago. I realize that, but the fact is this. There will be a time and a place for all that. As for right now, I am the WWF Champion and I will defend that title this Sunday at SummerSlam. So what I need to know from you, face to face, man to man, is that you can put everything aside for one night and call this thing right down the middle and ensure me that I wont be fighting both Scott Hall and the man in stripes. Bret: Shawn, I can’t guarantee you’ll win, and I can’t guarantee you’ll lose. All I can guarantee is that I will do what is right, and may the best man win. Hart and Michaels share a short stare down before HBK nods his head and then turns to head to the back.(84%)Crush defeated British Bulldog after interference from Owen HartThis was a match in which neither man was a fan favorite, but was a classic power versus power match up. Crush controlled the early goings, but Bulldog soon turned the tide. Bulldog looked like he might finish the match off, but Owen Hart appeared in the aisle. As Bulldog went to run the ropes, Owen tripped him up from behind. Bulldog turned his attention to Owen as Crush preoccupied the referee. Bulldog went for a right hand, but Owen ducked it and then hung Bulldog throat first on the top rope. Bulldog staggered back right into the clutches of Crush, who hit him with a Full Nelson Bomb and covered him for the win as Owen backed up the aisle with a smile on his face. (63%) Crush gained overness from this matchTicked OffVince McMahon is now in the ring and welcomes his guest, Jeff Jarrett. Jarrett walks out to the ring with his trusty guitar to boos from the crowd.Vince: Jeff Jarrett, last week we saw you come out and brutally attack the young rookie Rocky Maivia with a guitar shot to the head. May I ask you what provoked such a haneous act? Jarrett: It’s real simple, Vince. I told you weeks ago that I wasn’t going to stand by and let people who didn’t deserve their spot in the WWF hold more talented wrestlers, like myself, down anymore. I started with Jake Roberts and took that old fossil right out of the World Wrestling Federation. And last week, I set my sights on Rocky Maivia. Now obviously, Rocky is a different case. He isn’t a shriveled up old fogie. He’s a young up and comer in the WWF. But you see, the problem with Rocky Maivia is that he didn’t work his butt off to get to where he is right now like I did. He got a shot in the WWF because of who his daddy and grand daddy are! Just because Rocky Johnson is his daddy and Peter Maivia is his grandfather, he got special treatment. My father, Jerry Jarrett, was a legend in wrestling too. The Jarrett name is known all over the country. But that’s not what I built my career on. It took me seven years to reach the WWF! Seven years of busting my hump and traveling all over the US. But do I get the respect I deserve? No. But then you have some young punk with not even half the talent that I have, and all it takes is a phone call from his daddy and he’s on Raw the next week! It’s bogus, and everyone knows it! So Rocky Maivia is going to have to pay some dues, and it looks like I’m the man to give them out. And if little Rocky’s dad or grand dad has a problem with that, ha ha, they can come on down and I’ll play a tune on top of their heads too. As Jarrett prepares to leave the ring, Rocky Maivia comes sprinting down the aisle, slides in the ring, and tackles Jarrett to the mat. Maivia blasts Jarrett with right hands on the canvas before going for Jarrett’s guitar. It looked like Rocky might repay Jarrett for last week, but Double J slid out of the ring and out of harm’s way. Rocky stared down Jarrett as he backed up the aisle.(76%)“Wildman” Marc Mero w/Sable, Yokozuna, and Fatu defeated Diesel and the Supreme Machines w/Clarence Mason when Mero pinned DieselA huge six-man tag of SummerSlam opponents. This match went back and forth, but as you can expect soon turned into a wild brawl. Yoko and Fatu and the Machines ended up in a brawl on the outside, leaving Diesel and Mero on the inside. Diesel threw the Wildman into the turnbuckle and sized him up before running in for a big boot, but Mero moved out of thr way and Diesel hung himself up on the top rope. Diesel staggered out of the corner and Mero jumped up onto the shoulders of Big Daddy Cool, spun around, and then rolled Diesel up in a victory roll for the three! Mero quickly bailed out of the ring as Diesel sat in the ring stunned that he had been pinned by his SummerSlam opponent just days before the event, and Mero has proved that maybe size doesn’t matter. (73%)At LastWe now go to the backstage area where we see WWF President Gorilla Monsoon in an office, and then Steve Austin and Ted Dibiase walk in.Dibiase: Monsoon, you wanted to see us? Monsoon: As a matter of fact I did. I have some information that I need to relay to you and your client Steve Austin. First, due to his actions the past few weeks and his apparent inability to control his emotions, Ahmed Johnson has been barred from the building tonight. Dibiase: Good! That ingrate was becoming a danger to both himself and everyone in the locker room. Good riddance as far as we’re concerned. Monsoon: However, I do have another bit of information regarding Ahmed Johnson. He has been barred from the building tonight, but he won’t be barred from the building at SummerSlam. Because at SummerSlam, you won’t be able to duck Ahmed any longer, because it will be Ahmed Johnson one on one with Steve Austin for the Intercontinental Title. Dibiase: What?! You gotta be kidding me, Monsoon! Austin: This is ridiculous! I don’t duck anyone, Monsoon! That piece of trash Ahmed Johnson doesn’t deserve to even lace my boots, much less get a shot at my Intercontinental Title. He’s nothing but a common thug, and he’s proved it the past few weeks. He doesn’t deserve a title shot or even to be in the same ring as Steve Austin. Monsoon: Regardless, this issue between you and Ahmed Johnson has to come to an end, and it will come to an end at SummerSlam. You are excused. Dibiase and Austin storm out of the office, obviously outraged at the decision that was just made.(81%)Raven defeated Savio Vega with the Evenflow DDTRaven took control of the match early on, but Savio made a comeback and looked like he would score the win. But after missing a spin kick, Raven kicked Vega in the gut and quickly planted him with the Evenflow DDT for pinned him for the three. Following the match, the lights cut off in the arena. The familiar gong of the Undertaker was heard as a purple light filled the arena and smoke began to fill the ring. Raven stood around confused before a second gong was heard as fire exploded out of each turnbuckle! That was enough for Raven, as he bailed out of the ring and made his exit through the crowd. (68%)Vader w/Jim Cornette and Hunter Hearst-Helmsley defeated Ultimate Warrior and Sycho Sid by count outThis was a huge tag team match that the crowd ate up. The teams traded control of the match as all four men went at it with each other at one point of another. Towards the climax of the match, the action spilled to the outside as all four men brawled. Sid and Vader traded punches and began to battle up the aisle as the referee started a ten count. On the other side of the ring, Warrior and Hunter were fighting. Warrior set Helmsley up against the ring post and charged in with a clothesline, but Hunter moved and Warrior met nothing but steel. Helmsley then set Warrior up and hit him with the Pedigree on the floor! With Warrior incapacitated on the outside, Hunter rolled back in the ring with just a second to spare as the referee completed his ten count and awarded Hunter the win for his team by count out. (86%)Shawn Michaels defeated Goldust with Sweet Chin MusicThis was a non-title match, but was definitely interesting. Goldust put up a good fight, covering HBK up and keeping his offense limited early. But Michaels got rolling and took control of the match. HBK hit his signature moves and began tuning up the band for Sweet Chin Music when Scott Hall came down the aisle with a chair. It looked like Hall was going to blast HBK with the weapon with his back turned, but Bret Hart came running down to ringside and took the chair away from Hall from behind! Michaels then turned around and saw Hart holding the chair, with Hall pointing in his direction, trying to place blame on the Hitman. With HBK distracted, Goldust tried an ambush from behind, but Michaels side stepped the Bizarre One and blasted him with Sweet Chin Music before covering him for the win. Raw came to an auspicious close as Michaels stood in the ring staring down at both Hall and Hart. (86%)

RAW was good. I'm still hoping Hall gets the belt, and the ladder match should be amazing. Ahmed vs. Austin will be good, and I like both men alot. I'd prefer Ahmed win though because he should have gotten a WWF Title push. RAW wins in the ratings again, and thats good! Overall good RAW, and i cant wait until Smmerslam!

*Plans for SummerSlam seem to be solidifed, except for the Austin/Ahmed match. The original plan all along was to have Austin win the IC Title to solidify him as a solid upper mid carder and then have Ahmed have a long chase to get a one on one match with Austin, and win the title at SummerSlam. However, lately an idea has been thrown around to have Austin retain the title, because officials feel he has done a great job as a heel champ, and then turn Ahmed heel based on his frustration with not winning the title. There is fear, though, that an Ahmed heel turn would leave the roster thin of main event and upper card faces. *Expect to see Albert and 1-2-3 Kid tag teaming more in the near future. Creative didnt really have anything for Kid when he came back from injury, so the thought was to play off Kid's former relationship with Ted Dibiase and team him with Dibiase's newest client, Albert, in a classic big/little tag team. *Some feuds will end at SummerSlam, and some will be continued. Officials are excited about this event and hope it comes off well.

August 25, 1996 Commentators: Vince McMahon and Jim RossPre-ShowRocky Maivia defeated Jeff Jarrett with a roll-upThis match was better than most expected, especially for a pre-show match. Jarrett controlled most of the match, thought Rocky tried a short comeback at a few junctures, Jarrett fended them all off. Jarrett caught Maivia off guard and hit him with the Chart Buster. It seemed like that would be it, but Jarrett wanted to gloat for a few moments. He then went over and wanted to put Rocky away with the Figure-Four, but as Jarrett tried to lock his legs in, Maivia quickly rolled Jarrett up in a small package and got the three count! Rocky quickly left the ring and Jarrett couldn’t believe what had just happened as the referee raised Rocky’s hand in the aisle. (78%) Jeff Jarrett lost overness from this match Rocky Maivia gained overness from this matchYokozuna and Fatu defeated The Sumpreme Machines w/Clarence Mason by DQ to RETAIN the Tag Team TitlesThese two teams are all brute force and power, and this match was a slug fest. The Machines strategy was to isolate Fatu, and they worked him over in their corner for most of the match. A swift side kick to the jaw of Tatanka turned the tide, and Fatu made the hot tag to Yoko. Yokozuna blasted Tatanka with a right hand and then clobbered Kama on the apron, knocking him to the floor. Tatanka tried an ambush from behind, but Yoko caught him with a big belly to belly suplex, then drug him to the corner. Yoko went up to the middle rope and then flattened Tatanka with the Banzai Drop. The referee counted one and two, but before he got to three the pin was broken up by Kama, who cracked Yoko in the back with a chair! The referee called for the bell, disqualifying the Machines. Kama then reached back and it looked like he might be ready to inflict more damage with the chair, but Fatu slid back in the ring and cut Kama off, fighting off both he and Tatanka and then taking both men out of the ring with a double clothesline before checking on his partner. (69%)British Bulldog defeated Owen Hart with the Running PowerslamThese two brothers-in-law were going at it to see who the better man was. This match went back and forth, with both men getting in some offense, but you could tell these men knew each other well because many of there moves were countered by the other. Owen got the upper hand by blasting Bulldog with a spin wheel kick to the face. Hart then went up to the top rope, waiting for Bulldog to get to his feet. Owen leaped off with a cross body, but Bulldog caught him in mid air, hoisted him up on his shoulder, and planted him with the Running Powerslam, and just like that it was over. Following the bell, Bulldog stood in the ring and looked to be open to some reconciliation, but Owen just stared at him for a moment before solemnly leaving the ring. (65%)Ultimate Warrior defeated Hunter Hearst-Helmsley with a body splashThis feud has history dating back to April at WrestleMania, and these two delivered on the intensity. Warrior finally got his hands on Hunter one on one, and it showed as he let loose of a flurry of offense early on. Hunter did make a comeback, taking control of the match and slowing Warrior down, gaining a near fall with a running knee to the face. Hunter seemed a bit frustrated and set Warrior up for the Pedigree, but it was a bit premature as Warrior back dropped Hunter to the canvas. Warrior then got the momentum, blasting Hunter with a series of running clotheslines and a big shoulder block. Warrior sent Hunter into the turnbuckle and then, as Helmsley staggered out, picked him up and gorilla press slammed Hunter to the mat. Warrior then bounced off the ropes and hit a body splash to register the three count. (83%)Diesel defeated “Wildman” Marc Mero w/Sable with the JacknifeMero put up a good fight in this one, and probably surprised some fans with how competitive he was in this match. Diesel tried to control the match with his power, but Mero continually countered with speed and high-flying offense. Diesel did hit a few power moves, but only got two counts as Mero kept fighting back and kicking out. Diesel went for the Jacknife, but Mero pounded Diesel in the head with right hands and got the big man to fall to the mat. Mero then quickly went to the top rope and connected with a Merosault for a close two. Mero went up top again and went for an axe handle, but Diesel caught him in the air with a boot to the face. Diesel had then had enough and set Mero up and drove him to the canvas with the Jacknife for the pinfall. (83%)Ahmed Johnson defeated Steve Austin w/Ted Dibiase to become the NEW Intercontinental ChampionThis was a back and forth match, and the crowd was in to it. Early on in the match, any time Ahmed would seem to build some momentum, Dibiase would interfere or distract the referee so Austin could recover. As the match went to the climax, Ahmed connected with a spine buster, but Austin kicked out at two and a half. Ahmed went for the Pearl River Plunge, but Austin escaped it and shoved Ahmed off the ropes. As Johnson bounced back off the ropes, Austin hit him with a boot to the gut and then went for the Stunner, but Ahmed shoved Austin off. As Austin turned back around, Ahmed connected with a boot to the gut of his own, then latched Austin in and planted him with the Pearl River Plunge. 1..2..3! We had a new IC Champion! Austin and Dibiase stood in the aisle angered and in disbelief as Johnson celebrated in the ring. (85%) Ahmed Johnson gained overness from this feud ending The Intercontinental Title gained in imageRaven defeated The Undertaker w/Paul Bearer by DQThese two have been engulfed in a heated feud lately, and it didn’t look like it ended here. Raven controlled the early goings of the match, but Taker battled back and took control. Taker hit his signature moves and looked like he had dominated the match and was in complete control. Suddenly, out of no where Raven hit the Evenflow DDT! Raven was too battered to make the immediate cover, and after a few moments Undertaker sat up. Raven went on the attack again, but Taker blocked a right hand and grabbed Raven by the throat, then planted him to the mat with a chokeslam. Many thought this would be a prelude to the Tombstone, but instead the Undertaker looked to the outside and went and grabbed a steel chair. Undertaker stepped back into the ring and then threw the referee to the floor. Undertaker then sized Raven up and blasted him in the head with the chair! The bell sounded, signaling a disqualification, but it didn’t stop Taker. With Raven busted open and bleeding from the head, Undertaker hoisted him up and drove him down with a Tombstone. The lights dimmed and a purple light filled the arena as Taker posed over the beaten and bloodied body of Raven. (92%) Raven gained overness from this matchVader w/ Jim Cornette defeated Sycho Sid with the Vader BombThis was a match of two powerhouses going at it. Early into the match, Vader targeted the knee of Sid, dropping elbows and knees onto it, but the real damage was done when Vader drug Sid to the corner and slammed his leg into the steel ring post. Vader stayed on top of Sid, who was obviously hobbled by the bad wheel. Vader set Sid up for a powerbomb, but Sid impressively back dropped Vader to the mat. Sid then started a comeback, limping but hitting Vader with big rights and staggering him with a boot to the face. Sid then grabbed Vader and was able to complete a chokeslam on the big man. 1..2…Vader kicks out! With the crowd on his side, Sid set Vader up for a powerbomb of his own. Sid actually got the Mastodon half way up, but Sid’s leg gave out and Vader came crashing down on top of Sid’s chest. With Sid incapacitated, Vader drug him to the corner and then connected with a Vader Bomb for the win. Vader and Cornette posed in the aisle as Sid lay in the ring clutching his ribs. (89%)Scott Hall defeated Shawn Michaels in a Ladder Match to become the NEW WWF ChampionSpecial Referee: Bret “Hitman” HartThis was the match of the night, at it made sure SummerSlam didn’t end without some controversy. Hall was the first to use the ladder as a weapon, hitting HBK with it and slamming Michaels onto it. At one point, Hart tried to break up Hall and Michaels, who were in the corner, and Hall pie faced Hitman to the mat. Hall would continue to taunt and disrespect Hart throughout the match. Michaels would battle back, using the ladder himself and hitting a patented elbow drop from the top of the ladder in one of the big spots. As the match roared on, both Hall and HBK brought in a ladder with each man setting his ladder up under the title belt. Hall felt Hart was in his way, so he pushed him out of the way and then decked Hitman with a right hand! HBK set up his ladder and slowly started to climb on one side, while Hall started to climb his ladder from the opposite side. However, Bret soon got up and pulled Hall down off his ladder! Hall and Hart went face to face exchanging words, then Hall spit on Bret. The Hitman had had enough, and blasted Hall with a right hand! Hart hit Hall with a second, and then a third, but the third right hand sent Hall backing up and into HBK’s ladder. The ladder slowly started to tip and HBK was sent off the ladder, outside of the ring and through the announce table! The crowd was stunned, and Hart stood in the ring with a stoic look on his face. With HBK obviously out, Hall began to scale up his ladder again. Hall reached the final rung, and after giving a smirk Hart’s way, reached up and grabbed the WWF Title! SummerSlam came to a close with Michaels in a heap and Scott Hall, the new WWF Champion, posing on the ladder with his new title belt. (96%) The WWF Title gained in image

Razor won the belt!? ing great, dude. The ending is pretty sweet, too. Glad Vader beat Sid, and I like this Raven/Taker feud you have going. The show itself was VERY well written, and this is still my favorite old school diary ever.

One more...for the good guys ;D. I love Hall winning the belt and the obvious Hart/Razor feud in the future.
I was hoping Austin was going to retain but its nice to see Ahmed get a push with the belt.
I wonder what you're going to do with The Warrior now?

Razor as champion is absolutely awesome! I loved the ending. Sad to see Taker lose, but good to see Mavia win. Ahmed winning the IC Title is also awesome, as ive always thought that he deserved a big push back when he was in the WWF. Overall excellent PPV, probably your best show yet IMO.

Hall as Champ is a good move to be honest with you, I'm enjoying Hall as WWF Champ already. I thought it was wise to have Ahmed to win the IC Championship from Austin, and of course keep Ahmed fresh and face as well.
With Ahmed's Victory, possibly down the road/future that Ahmed perhaps could become a major contender for the WWF Championship.
I'm loving this diary.

SummerSlam was a great show, everything was booked just about perfect, and I'm really looking forward to RAW. Hall as champion is definitely the right decision, and I liked Ahmed winning as well. Here's hoping Warrior kills Helmsley again on RAW.

August 26, 1996 Commentators: Vince McMahon and Jim RossSay Hello to the Bad GuyRaw opens up with the music of Scott Hall, as the new WWF Champion struts out to the ring to resounding boos from the crowd.Hall: Hey yo! Say hello to the bad guy. Better yet, say hello to the new WWF Champion! Last night at SummerSlam, I took that toy boy Shawn Michaels and beat him all over that ring. I beat him up and down, left and right, and at the end, while he was lying in a heap, I climbed that ladder and grabbed what is rightfully mine. I beat Shawn Michaels at his own game. He got lucky last year. He should have known better than to think he would get lucky again. And now, Scott Hall is at the top of the mountain. This belt is right where it belongs. I’ve got gold on my hands, gold on my neck, and now I’ve got THE gold on my waist. And like it or now, there’s not a thing you fans, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, or anyone else can do about it. You can go ahead and step up to the plate, and the Bad Guy will carve you up! (88%)“Wildman” Marc Mero w/Sable defeated Skip w/Sunny with the Wild ThingMero got back to his winning ways in this very competitive match. He and Skip out on a nice match, and Skip scored a few near falls. However, Skip missed on a flying head butt and that gave Mero the opening to capitalize on, connecting with a Samoan Drop and then landing the Wild Thing for the win. As Mero and Sable celebrated in the ring, Goldust and Marlana appeared in the aisle, staring at the couple. What could these two be doing out here? (88%)Water Under the Bridge?We now cut to the backstage area and the see the British Bulldog sitting in his locker room. Then, Owen Hart walks in, causing Bulldog to stand up and confront him.Bulldog: What do you want? Owen: Whoa, ease up, big fella. Look, I wanted to come in here and apologize. I challenged you to a match, one on one, and last night you proved that you were the better man. I just wanted to come in here, shake your hand, and see if we could put everything behind us. We are still family, you know? Bulldog: You know, Owen, you’re right, we are family. If you’re willing to put this all behind us, I’m willing to let bygones be bygones and move on. Bulldog and Owen shake hands and Owen gets a big smile on his face.Owen: Alright! And you know what, to prove that we’re back and better than ever, I went to Gorilla Monsoon and got us a tag match tonight. And if we win tonight, we’ll get a tag team title shot! Bulldog: Sounds good! Let’s get ready and go out there and go get ‘em. (83%)Fighting ChampionWe now go to the ring where Vince McMahon is standing by.Vince: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the NEW Intercontinental Champion, Ahmed Johnson! Ahmed walks down the aisle to the ring with his new title belt to a good ovation.Vince: Ahmed, last night at SummerSlam you finally got a one on one match with the man you had been chasing for almost four months, Steve Austin, and you came away as the new Intercontinental Champion. How about it? Ahmed: You know, as good as it felt to finally get my hands on Steve Austin and deliver the beat down he’s had coming for months now, I will have to admit that it was even sweeter to walk out of SummerSlam with this title wrapped around my waist. This title represents everything that I’ve worked so hard for. To come from where I come from, to make it out of the projects and make it to the WWF, and then to be standing here as the Intercontinental Champion makes everything worth it. But you know, I realize that the honeymoon is already over. I know what this title means, and I know that now I’ve got a bull’s eye on my back. So to anyone who wants a shot at me and this title, listen up! If you want some, come and get some! I will be a fighting champion, and if you want a shot, just take a number and get in line, and you will be dealt with. (67%) Ahmed Johnson lost overness from this segmentAhmed Johnson defeated Mabel with a spine busterThis was a non-title match, but Ahmed came out with his usual intensity. Mabel was able to slow the new IC champ down a bit with his size, but Ahmed made a comeback and rocked the big man with rights and clotheslines. Ahmed whipped Mabel into the corner and as Mabel staggered out connected with an impressive spine buster to get the three. As Ahmed posed in the ring with his belt, he was suddenly clobbered from behind. It’s Crush! Crush set up Johnson and planted him to the canvas with a Full Nelson Bomb. Crush picked up the IC title belt and looked at for a few moments before throwing it back down at the body of Ahmed and leaving the ring. (73%)Albert w/ Ted Dibiase defeated Rocky Maivia after interference from Jeff JarrettThis was an interesting match as both men are new comers to the WWF. Albert controlled the early goings with his strength, but Maivia was able to battle back and keep Albert off kilter with his speed. Rocky went up the top rope and connected with a flying drop kick, but this brought Dibiase onto the apron to distract the referee before Rocky could make a cover. With the ref preoccupied, Jeff Jarrett suddenly hit the ring. Jarrett spun Rocky around and hit him with the Chart Buster, then quickly slid back out of the ring. Albert recovered, and Rocky was easy pickings for a Baldo Bomb. Albert hooked the leg and picked up the win thanks to an assist from Jarrett. (75%)British Bulldog and Owen Hart defeated Marty Jannetty and HakushiEverything seemed to be back in order for Bulldog and Owen. Marty and Hakushi put up a fight, but Davey Boy and Owen worked like a well oiled machine and were too much on this night. Owen blasted Hakushi with a spin wheel kick that sent him to the outside as Bulldog finished Jannetty off with the Running Powerslam for the win and earned himself and Owen a tag team title shot. (77%)Grave WarningWe now go to a dark and dreary cemetery and see the Undertaker standing next to a dirty grave. As he talks, Undertaker slowly rubs dirt off of the name on the head stone.Undertaker: A place like this should look familiar. Though many people don’t spend much time in a place like this in their lifetime, it is always ultimately where their soul will come to rest. And so it is for another unlucky individual. The darkness awaits the arrival of its latest victim. The name on the stone is revealed to be “Raven.”Raven, last night at SummerSlam was just the beginning. Your time, like sands in an hour glass, is slowly running out. And it runs out at In Your House. In three weeks, it will be your final Judgement Day. Your sins will be accounted for, and the Reaper will be your judge, jury, and executioner. Raven, you have sealed your fate. At In Your House, you and I will meet in a Casket match. And after you have looked into the eyes of the Deadman, I will place your lifeless body inside of a casket made especially for you. And as you stare up into the lights, unable to move, I will close the lid on top of your body, and then you will have only rotting wood and the darkness to comfort you. And then this grave will receive its occupant. Raven, at Judegement Day, you will rest in peace. (88%)Ultimate Warrior defeated Hunter Hearst-Helmsley by count-outThere was no lag from last night’s SummerSlam match between these two, as both men went at each other right at the bell. The intensity was there, but this match wouldn’t have as climatic an ending as last night. Helmsley took the lead of the match early, but Warrior soon came roaring back. Warrior lifted Hunter up in a gorilla press and then threw Hunter over the top rope to the outside! Warrior pounded his chest as he waited for Hunter to climb back in the ring, but Hunter didn’t move. The referee began his ten count, and there was still not much movement from Helmsley. The referee reached nine, and then ten, and called for the bell. Warrior was awarded the match by count out as the referee checked on Hunter. Warrior posed a bit in the ring and then celebrated up the aisle as officials came down to the ring. Hunter had to be helped up and escorted away from the ring by officials, and seemed to be favoring his knee. It looked like he might have injured it on the fall to the floor. (82%)Wanting AnswersThe music of Shawn Michaels hits the arena and the former WWF Champion walks out to the ring with a stern look on his face.HBK: I know I may not seem like my usual happy-go-lucky self tonight, but if you saw SummerSlam last night, you might know why I’m not in the best of moods. What I’m looking for tonight is answers, and there’s only one man I can get the answers I want from. So Bret Hart, I need you to come out here, because we have some issues we need to work out face to face. After a few moments, Bret Hart’s music hits and the Hitman walks down the aisle and meets HBK in the ring. The two share a short stare down before Michaels starts to talk again.HBK: You just couldn’t resist, could ya? I asked you, man to man, when you were announced as the special referee for my match to be unbiased. I asked you to put whatever business we have left unfinished aside for one night. But you couldn’t do that, could you? You had to let your ego get in the way of doing your job. Now I know how good it feels to punch Scott Hall right in the face, but the fact is that your actions cost me the WWF Championship. Hart: You know Shawn, I did exactly what I said I would do last night. I called the match right down the middle, and I didn’t allow you or Scott Hall to disrespect me or diminish my authority. I was the referee in that match, and I should have been treated as one. As far as what happened, I don’t know what you want me to say or do. Scott Hall fell into the ladder and knocked you over to the outside. Things happen. I have already apologized to Gorilla Monsoon for stepping over the line and hitting Scott Hall during the match, but what I won’t do is apologize or take responsibility for you losing the WWF Title. So whatever you need to get off your chest, you might as well do it now. HBK: You know what I think, Bret? I think that ever since WrestleMania, you’ve had it out for me. You still haven’t got over the fact that I beat you for the WWF Championship and sent you soul searching for four months. You might not like me, and I might not particularly like you, but that’s OK with me. But when you mess with me and the WWF Championship, something I have worked my entire career for, we have a problem. Michaels and Hart come face to face again, nose to nose, and looked like it might escalate further until Gorilla Monsoon appeared in the aisle.(85%)Uneasy PartnersWWF President Gorilla Monsoon then made his way down the aisle with a microphone and got in the ring in between Bret and Michaels.Gorilla: Gentlemen, before this goes any further, I think there is something you both need to know. At the next In Your House pay-per-view, there will be a tag team main event. It will feature the new WWF Champion Scott Hall teaming with Diesel, to take on Shawn Michaels and Bret “Hitman” Hart! Hart and Michaels stare at each other as Monsoon leaves the ring and brings Raw to a close.(74%)

Once again, I love your promos. Lol at Scott calling Shawn "Toy Boy". Taker and Raven in a casket match is pretty sweet, and that promo was very Taker like which made it fun to read. Cool to see Bret and Shawn going at each other once again. That Tag match at IYH is huge and will prove to be very interesting.

I owe a reply for Summerslam man.
Ramon as champion, hell yeah, that match was a very great read and I loved the ending as well leaving many possibilities open, rest of the show was epic as well and I loved reading every match. I don't know what to think about Ahmed as IC Champ as I never really liked the guy, I loved the Taker/Raven ending as well. Overall a very great show.
That Taker promo on Raw was intense and I like how your handling the WWF Title picture and the IYH main event looks good as well.
Overall great stuff keep it up.
