WWE Raw: September 5, 1998
Wrasslin' Raw
The big dogs stay home on Saturday nights! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys view the fallout of SummerSlam, and a generally weak episode of Monday Night Raw. Vince McMahon baits the Undertaker and Kane, who go on a smearing streak through the whole episode, while less-than-interesting matches featuring Southern Justice and Los Boricuas get their full time on the card. It says something when Tiger Ali Singh is one of the most entertaining things in an episode- pucker up, sardine lips!

Wrasslin' Raw
There’s a pretty big lack of Demon Seed here! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys examine the payoff of what was a notably poor buildup: SummerSlam 1998! Matches featuring D-Lo Brown and Ken Shamrock backed up some big-name contests including Stone Cold Steve Austin, the Undertaker, the Rock, and Triple H. Sable screeches her way back into the forefront, the horrible DX Band gives us a reprise, and there’s even a rare PPV Jobber of the Week. Watch out for those baby-stealing gypsies!

The Brawl for All bodycount reaches a crescendo! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys take a look at the go-home show leading into SummerSlam 1998. Dan Severn finally gets exposed, Southern Justice finally gets some in-ring time, and we finally get some resolution in the Cahoots! storyline (or do we?). Taka Michinoku approaches full “jobber” status while Bart Gunn confirms “badass” status, and take a drink every time there’s potential for CTE!

What’s that dripping out of Val’s pink cannon? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, we continue to build up to SummerSlam, with Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Undertaker setting up the story for their Main Event. Owen Hart and Ken Shamrock look good together, while Dan “the Beast” Severn continues to impress everyone. Nothing makes sense in the Six Man Street Fight between DeGeneration-X and the Nation, but Gangrel debuts on our screens. Wow, is that really President Clinton calling in tonight?

Is the Brawl For All over yet? In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys are deep in the lead-up to SummerSlam, as well as the intrigue of CAHOOTS. Vader had a chance to get some hos from the Godfather, Droz gets some more screen time, and Southern Justice definitely does not have a match booked. It's also entirely possible that Jeff Jarrett might be interesting again!

Don’t just blow it, show it, HO! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys check out the “tweener” Pay Per View, Fully Loaded. This show features the infamous bikini contest between Jacqueline and Sable, a Hart Dungeon Match between Owen Hart and Ken Shamrock, and some answers as to who’s in cahoots with each other. The Rock and Triple H try for a barn burner, and Vader calls in once again for a status update. Who asked for a DOA match, SKANK?

Let the downward spiral of Steve Williams’ future begin! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys watch the go-home Monday Night Raw leading into the Fully Loaded Pay Per View. This week’s “Brawl 4 All” victim was Quebecer Pierre, while everybody was a victim of being subjected to another DOA/LOD match. D-Lo Brown wins the European Championship, Faarooq returns to our screens, and The Rock defends the Intercontinental Title against X-Pac. How can you tell if a mumu is worked?

We’re just gonna pretend like it never happened! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys sit down to talk about another “Brawl 4 All”-era Monday Night Raw, where the only thing more common than the ruined careers are “we want wrestling” chants. Dan “The Beast” Severn boxes with the Godfather, and the New Midnight Express’ choice to box each other leads to a cataclysmic breakup. Mick’s shoulder is still messed up, can we raise his arm if it’s to give him a Tag Tile?
info_outlineWho’s ready for some college football stats? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys check out an underrated Pay Per View, In Your House 22: Over the Edge. There’s a “bonus” Kai En Tai match, Sable gets swerved, and Vader gains self-awareness. Even though the Rock and Faarooq are underwhelming, DeGeneration-X and the Nation deliver an entertaining Six Man Tag match, and there’s a Match of the Year candidate in Stone Cold Steve Austin versus “Corporate” Dude Love. Hitler, Stalin… McMahon?
