Storm: You're not an idiot! So there!

Elentari: It just so happens that I taped from 9:00 to 11-30, so I actually *did* get the first 30 minutes of RAW, but that was it, because, yeah, I'm an idiot!! I'm so sorry Sis! I screwed up totally. Ah well, I'll do as much as I can then you'll just have to fill me in on the rest :-(

Storm: No problem at all, sis..but you're still not an idiot. :) I'm glad to do it, and like I said..I'll send you the tape soon so you can see it.

Elentari: At the very, very beginning, it started with clips from that sucky Summer Slam PPV that I wish I'd never seen to begin with, much less have to see more clips from. The show actually began with McMahon. *rolling eyes* I think he's good at what he's been doing, but dammit, he just talks entirely too much! He could say the same in a whole lot less time!

Storm: McMahon...*yawn*....Totally, totally agree about him taking too long! Jeez! Get to the point already, you know?!

Elentari: Basically, he was hyping the next PPV. I'm tired of Austin, but did you see that little boy dressed in Austin's clothes? Too cute!! He was posing and everything!! What a trip!!

Storm: I saw him! He was so cute..

Elentari: McMahon said that on Sept 27 (the next PPV), there would be a new WWF champ. He called UT a fool for sending Kane away at SS. He called Regis and Kathie Lee a "cutting edge" talk show, and I just about fell out!! That's a hoot!!

Storm: I was snickering loudly..Cutting edge, my a**

Elentari: He called Kane retarded!! (Heeyy!) I thought that was really rude and just totally uncalled for! How come he said Kane couldn't talk? He *did* speak on RAW before!! Are we supposed to forget that, or did he mean to say, "can't talk without the aid of some sort of auditory device"?

Storm: I went "Huh?" as well. Who knows, they expect us to have the memory-span of a gnat, so maybe they think we've forgotten already. Give me a break! Oh, and Kane is not retarded...it seems rudeness abounds these days. >:(

Elentari: He pretty much just tried to provoke UT and Kane. There was an a**hole chant, and McMahon handled that so well!! Even though I was bored with him, I really liked that!! Oh, but then!! Oh my God!! I knew it was coming before he said it, and it *still* shocked me!! He called UT/Kane two putrid pu**ies!!??!! Can you believe that? Not just once but *twice*! He said it twice!! I really couldn't believe it!

Storm: What a jerk! Yes, I know it's all part of the script and blah, blah, blah, but still..that's going a bit too far don't you think? I mean, there should be a limit. I hate that word, anyway..and he really didn't have to say it more than once!

Elentari: Finally UT/Kane came to the ring then, and Vince runs out the other way! LOL They followed him through the crowd.

Storm: Yep, there they are..thank goodness there's no sign of a trap..at least not yet. Hopefully there won't ever be...

Elentari: Ooh, ooh, ooh!! Guess who?? ;-) My next most two favorite men on the planet! DOA!! They came out with Paul Ellering. I was at least thankful that I got these guys on tape. Ohhh, I just love them! So sexy! They were supposed to wrestle Shamrock and Blackmon. Who knows why?

Storm: Who knows why Shamrock and Blackmon wresle anyone? They just seem to throw them around to whoever they feel like each week. LOL

Elentari: I wish they'd put DOA in a decent angle. Anything!! I just want more of these guys, dammit!! I know you don't get into DOA, but did you notice the staredown between 8-Ball and Shamrock? Oh my God! You know I was totally into that!! Jesus!!

Storm: Yeah, and I totally thought of you. *g* That was too cool! I couldn't help but wonder if there was any real animosity between them. Very convincing..

Elentari: Sorry, I know I shouldn't start rambling about these two, but I just cannot help myself!! They drive me crazy!! Such hot bodies!! *sigh*

Storm: Talk about them all you want! I don't have much to say this week anyway..and probably won't for awhile...*sigh*....Long story, guys...and I sure don't want to talk about it.

Elentari: Of course, their match got interrupted!! :-P It always does. Well, this time, it was interrupted by UT and Kane, but damn, can't I ever see them wrestle a full match? *pout*

Storm: I was saying "Not again!", but still laughing because I was picturing you at home hurling things at the TV in frustration! LOL

Elentari: My guys were the smart ones, though, which I thought was cool. They left the ring!! LOL Kane and UT slid in the ring and Kane chokeslammed Blackmon, and ooh, I did get to see the twins again. They were beating up Shamrock.

Storm: Yep, they were the only smart ones that night, it seems. Everyone else just took it, except McMahon of course..

Elentari: UT got Blackmon in a submission hold on his right leg and Kane kicked him. I thought UT looked great in that close up shot.

Storm: So did I! He looks so hot when he's being determined like that! **yum** I also liked that submission hold a lot..

Elentari: I'm also thrilled that they're still letting Kane wear the one-armed suit! Love to see the arm! UT breaks the hold, and both, he and Kane climb over the top rope! *g* Notice that? I thought that was cool!

Storm: Sure did..*eg*..How can you not notice something that *hot*....*droooool* Very glad to see the arm on display still..hope they stick with that suit for awhile. I've heard Kane is doing autograph signings these days, in fact there was one on Monday. Too bad none of them seem to be near me. *pout*

Elentari: The twins and Ellering are running up the ramp away from them. Good shot of Kane and UT together coming up the ramp. Really nice!

Storm: Very nice..and for a certain reason too, but that's all I'm gonna say about it this week. I'm not in the mood..

Elentari: Did you see that sign that said, "Hey Mick, Can I play in traffic with you?" That's cute!!

Storm: So cute...and Mick is just soo wonderful, and such a sweet guy!! *sigh* What a doll.. He's quickly becoming even more of a favorite..

Elentari: Val Venis was next against Vader. That stupid Bradshaw came out. UT/Kane (wow!) came out. Kane slid in, and UT stepped over the top rope!! Too cool!! Oh yeah, Bradshaw left! Kane high kicked Venis, and UT started beating on Vader.

Storm: Love the slide...*g*...There's another definition for our page...:)

Elentari: Kane moved Venis into one corner beating him up, and UT moved Vader into another corner beating him up. Kane chokeslammed Venis, and then threw him out of the ring.

Storm: I *loved* this! You know how little I think of Val Venis...*bleah*....

Elentari: Then Kane and UT both did a double chokeslam on Vader! Ooh, and Kane slung his hair, and y'know, his hair is really looking so good right now!!

Storm: The longer it gets, the better it looks..I'm very impresed! Lots of hair slinging from both guys tonight...*eg*

Elentari: UT climbed over the top rope *again*!! Damn!! Did he do this the whole two hours? I'm really, *really* upset now!! Geez!! Then *Kane* climbed over the the top rope standing right next to him!! My gosh!! Major heart attack!!

Storm: Yep, they did it the whole two hours! *g* Dont worry, you'll get to see it when I send you the tape! I was definitely in hormone heaven..*sigh* Of course, that was before....

Elentari: Wow! Ooh, ooh, ooh! Did you see how they walked up the ramp together, both turned, and then gave those menacing looks?? Wow!! No doubt about it. They are definitely the two hottest guys in the universe!! No two ways about it!! I can't help it, but I just love it when UT's bad, and now they're making them both sort of evil in an extremely sexy way!!

Storm: They sure are..and I'm loving UT. UT being bad like that is just *too* sexy! Damn! *shiver* That was one of my favorite parts of this RAW...those menacing looks..*g*

Elentari: Okay, next was Michael Cole with Rocky and Mark Henry, and this is where my tape stops!!!! BooHoo!! :-( Okay, go ahead, tell me all the great stuff I missed!! *pout*

Storm: Well, Rocky was hilarious..as usual! LOL..Let's see.."Ten dollar toupee..people's eyebrow (*g*)..candy asses..." The usual..LOL I love him so much! He was basically just setting up for the match with NAO. After this interview, Lawler said "Ok, JR..know your role and tell 'em what's next."....to which JR replies..."Okay, you Jabrone." LOLOL! Loved i!

After commercials, we have the match (Rock & Mark Henry vs. NAO)..While the Rock and Henry are getting in the ring and glaring at the fans, Michael Cole has an interview with the NAO. They bragged about regaining their stupid Tag-Team Titles (*rolling eyes*), blah, blah, blah..

Finally, they come out and Road Dog does his thing..which was cool the first zillion times, but it's getting old now. *yawn* Takes entirely too long..Anyway..lots of standing around in the beginning..a loud "Rocky Sucks" chant (he does *not*)..still more posing and wasting tme...*sigh*...They finally lock up, and I keep noticing the damn signals Gunn is giving to Rocky. I don't know why, but I was really focused on that on this show during *all* the matches. Gunn with a takeover and more showboating. Rocky glares at Road Dog for a bit on the apron, then delivers a bunch of kicks to Gunn..and a scoop-slam. Clothesline by Gunn and he tags to RD. RD dances a bit and flips Rock into a hold Rocky gets out of it and tags in Henry. Two right hands to RD, a scoop-slam and a leg-drop. Cover for 2.. and Henry tags in the Rock. A flurry of punches to RD in the corner, then the People's Elbow...which I *love*...There's a cover, but Gunn comes in and stops it. The ref turns his back (as always) and Henry and Rock team up to deliver a low-blow to RD. Henry does some other non-interesting stuff, then goes for the big splash, but Road Dog rolls over. (Oh, that sounded bad..LOL) They both take forever to tag in their partners and it's Rocky and Gunn..Nope, now everybody is fighting and it's way to confusing to recap. Chyna runs in and starts beating on Henry, then the bell is rung. RD & Gunn pull her off and hold her back while the Rock is yelling at them all. DQ and the NAO keep their titles (of course..*rolls eyes*).

Tiger Ali Singh is next..Oh brother..When are they going to stop this crap. This time the challenge was for some girl to french kiss Babu (a different guy..wonder why?) for five seconds after he'd been eating sardines all day. So they pick out some girl and she does it, of course..then Taker and Kane come down the ramp, climb over the top rope together...*drool*...Kane chokeslams Babu, then Taker chokeslams Singh Yes!! Woohoo!! Thank you, UT. I've been wanting to see that for weeks now. >:) Kane looks at Taker...Oh God...he looked *SO* good here...then they climb over the top rope *again* slowly...*faint*...and walk up the ramp looking too hot!! Taker does the eye-roll thing and sends me off into fantasy-land again. Don't you wonder if he...um....well, you know....*g*

Southern Justice vs. Headbangers was next...Lots of scoop-slams, drop kicks, elbow drops...a low blow or two by Southern Justice..naturally..Southen Justice wins with the Problem Solver...LOL Next we see UT and Kane going to McMahon's dressing room backstage and Kane has a sledgehammer. Oooo baby! You can be my sledgehammer *anytime*! *pant* Kane takes the sledgehammer and beats down the door (Oh Gawd..the muscles on that *arm*!! *drooling heavily*) The door opens and Kane kicks it once for good measure. This struck me as funny..I have no idea why. LOL Anyway, Taker looks around down the hallway while Kane enters the room..then Taker goes in for a second and throws a chair back out of the room. Taker and Kane come back out and Kane slings his hair back again..Oh wow! Damn!

Next is X-Pac vs. D-Lo! Love D-Lo..he's such a cutie! I'm running really short on time, so let me cut to the chase..JJ interferes..are you surprised? *snort* Anyway, they go at it for awhile then go out through the crowd still fighting. UT and Kane come in again and I'm pissed because they don't show Kane coming down the ramp...*pout*...D-Lo stands in the ring looking terrified..(LOL) Taker and Kane stalk towards him slowly...ohhhhh....the way they were walking.....yummmmmm.....anyway ..The Rock comes in and yacks in their faces, and Kane does the head-tilt...God, how *cute*!! I just want to hug him! Rock hits Kane, but Taker gets him in the corner and starts beating him down, then sends him into the ropes so Kane can chokeslam him. Kane slings his hair and he and Taker stare at the Rock down on the mat for a bit. They climb over the top-rope *again*..and damn Taker looks good when they're going up the ramp!! *double drool* A really hot package shot of them heading up the ramp from the front. They get to the top of the ramp, turn around and look menacing (again! I LOVE it)...Kane slings his hair...and we go to commercial...dammit!

Mero vs. Edge was the next match. Mero and Jaqueline come out and do some posing, then Edge comes through the crowd. Again there is an interruption when Gangrel interferes, attacking Edge. They fall to the mat and just start pummeling each other. Mero and Jackie take off up the ramp, and guess who? Taker and Kane are waiting for them at the top. Taker clotheslines Mero and both he and Kane start kicking him while he's down. Taker turns and glares at Jackie, but she backs up. They stand there together *again* and look menacing for a second, then leave. JR interviews Al Snow next, and we see some clips from ECW, plus some of his previous gimmicks Avatar and Leif Cassidy. LOL Too cute. They talk about the voices Al hears, then at the end he starts arguing with Head. LOL Loved it..of course..Can't wait till he comes back and starts wrestlling!

Taker and Kane are shown walking through the halls of the arena again, and Kane still has the sledgehammer. I am so turned on by the way Kane walks...*fanning*....Very hot! The Oddities (with Insane Clown Posse) come out..and Hawk is with them..drunk and dancing to their song. Okay, I admit, this was funny. LOL Anyway, Animal and Droz take on Kurrgan and Silva. This is a joke..Hawk attacks one of the Insane Clown Posse guys outside the ring, then later gets involved with the match, tagging in Kurrgan...don't ask me...LOL ..After te ensuing fracas..The Oddities win, and Hawk dances with them again. *g*

Taker and Kane are in the parking garage now and they attack some worker. Kane bends waaay over and gives us a nice view of his rear. Thank you, Glenn..*g* Too Much take on Los Boricuas and Too Much wins..Not recapping this..don't care. Although I have to admit, Too Much are very talented. The new WWF Sunday Night Heat commecial with Taker is shown...*drool*...That's all I have to say.. Scorpio vs. Double J (with his new buzz cut..*bleah*)...Sorry I don't have time to recap this because I love Scorpio. X-Pac interferes (gee, I see a trend here..) and the gorgeous brothers come down the ramp again..They both climb slowly over the top-rope and stalk Scorpio. Taker and Kane both punch him a bit, then Kane gets that choke on Scorpio...*drool again*..McMahon comes out and watches..looking quite pleased with himself. Taker chokeslams Scorpio and then he and Kane team up for a spike tombstone..cool!! McMahon's loving it. Kane stands up and slings his hair back, then UT and Kane go over the top-rope again and go after McMahon. UT does the eye-roll thing again as they go up the ramp..and that's the end of RAW. Great show, overall...tons of Taker and Kane..it should be this way every week!!

My Thoughts For 8.24.98:

At the beginning, they showed Taker and Kane walking out of a dressing room together, and heading for the ring. Taker's music plays, and the two of them walk down the ramp side by side. *dreamy sigh* Taker brings up the lights, they get in the ring, and McMachon comes out. He gets in the ring and says that Taker and Kane have "come out of the casket". Then he tells the crowd "I told you so. Let me repeat that..I..told..you..so." Then he tells Taker that he will definitely win the title at Summerslam with Kane by his side. He also says that there will come a time when he (Taker) will need Vince McMahon. He asks him to make a decision.."Friend or Foe?" and that he'll ask him later in the show what his answer is. Paul Bearer comes out looking all upset, and says to Kane. "Tell me it's all a lie. Tell me it's just been a horrible nightmare." He says that he's always been there for Kane and that he's the one who loves him. He also says that he's the one telling the truth and that Taker's being deceitful. Then he asks Kane to do one more thing for him, if he does nothing else. Destroy Taker. Kane looks at Taker..Taker looks at Kane..then he slowly turns his back and Taker starts kicking PB's butt. Mankind comes out and turns his back to Taker immediately, so Taker attacks him, too..and Kane joins him! They team up and get a spike tombstone on Mankind. McMahon says that UT has only one person left in his way, Austin. Austin comes out at some point during all this, but is prevented from entering the ring by a wall of fire from one (or both?) of the boys. He does his usual thing, and then leaves. Taker and Kane are left in the ring standing together, with Taker looking po'ed.

Later, Mankind comes out and says that McMahon tried to tell him that Kane was no good, but the didn't want to believe him. Then he challenges Kane to a Hell In A Cell match later that night (along with the famous tacks from HITC2). He leaves.

In the acutal match, Kane comes out (with Undertaker still by his side) before Mankind. He gets in the ring and waits. Mankind comes out. Mankind tried to climb to the top of the cage, but the refs wouldn't let him, so Kane comes out of the ring and gets hit in the head with the cage door and kicked by MK. Mankind goes around and tries to throw a chair to the top of the cage twice, and misses both times. The chair comes down and hits Lawler the second time. Yikes. Finally, he tries to climb the cage again, but Taker climbs up after him and throws him off onto the Spanish Announcers' table (again!). Kane comes around and smashes his head into the cage, then they go around the side of the crowd back to the front of the cage. Kane kicks Mankind twice by the cage door, then smashes the door into him. Kane then throws the steel steps into the ring, and gets in. He hits Mankind with the steps twice. Kane goes over the top rope sideways (a *really* cool move!), and lands on MK, of course. Kane gets back in the ring and throws the steps to the floor where MK should be, but he's gone under ther ring. There are a couple of chair shots by Mankind, who then throws the tacks into the ring. Kane kicks Mankind, who counters and gets the Mandible Claw on him. Mankind piledrives Kane, and Kane lands all on the tacks which stick to his butt. :(

Kane finally gets up and grabs the chair, hitting Mankind who has climbed to the top rope. He of course falls off. Kane chokeslams Mankind, then tombstones him. Kane slings his hair twice (drooool), then gets up and looks to his brother Taker. Taker gives him the "finish him" sign, and Kane picks up the chair again. Mankind gets up, Kane hits him with the chair, then tombstones him onto it. He pins him, but Austin comes out from under the ring and attacks Kane, doing his usual lame punches and kicks. Taker tries to get in the cage, first by yanking on the chained door, then climbing to the top. He stomps on the top of the cage, trying to bust through, and gets his foot through it, but McMahon is shown raising the cage, so UT can't drop through. Meanwhile, Austin gets the stupid stunner on Kane, and hits him with a chair (which actually injures Glenn..way to go, Austin. I was not happy.)

Austin leaves, we go to commercial. When we come back, Taker and Kane are in the ring and Taker is pissed about Austin attacking Kane unprovoked. Glenn is bleeding from the head (which took 14 stitches to fix, by the way) and looking very wobbly and dazed. Taker calls Austin a coward, and says he's sealed his fate by attacking Kane. He says that before the night ends Austin will come face to face with his destiny. He says it has nothing to do with Summerslam..it's *personal*. I love it!

At some point before the end, we see a shot of Taker backstage pushing a casket. Then, at the end of the night, the "Druids" carry out the casket and place it ringside. Taker's music comes on and he comes out alone. He gets in the ring and says at Summerslam he will take what is rightfully his, the World Wrestling Federation Title. He says he'll be in Austin's face, and he need not worry about Kane, because he has his own agenda at Summerslam. He says "Don't you realize boy, when you jumped on Kane, you jumped on me." He goes on to call out Austin, but McMahon comes out instead and asks him. "Friend or foe?" Taker half-smiles, half-smirks.. McMahon goes to shake his hand, but Taker chokeslams him instead. Austin comes out of the casket and gets in McMahon's face, then confronts Taker. Before anything can happen, Kane attacks Austin from behind (ha ha), and kicks his butt. Austin grabs a chair and takes off while Taker and Kane are stalking him. He backs up the ramp while a trail of fire follows him up. He yacks, but we don't hear him. "Highway to Hell" plays as Taker and Kane look on, very pissed. The end! Time for Summerslam!

My Thoughts For 8.17.98:

Boy, if I thought last week's Raw was crappy, this one stunk!! There was exactly five minutes of this load of crap that was watchable, and that was the bit with Al Snow in the bar and the very end.

Speaking of the end..what happened was this..Austin and Taker were supposed to have a confrontation at the end of Raw. "Taker's" music comes on, but he doesn't come out. He's already in the ring, facing away from the ramp with his head down. Austin comes out, gets in the ring, and tries to confront "Taker". Fire shoots up from the ringposts and "Taker" turns around to reveal that it's really Kane! *EG*

I loved this!! Kane chokeslams Austin (woohoo!), throws him to the ground when he attempts to get up and run at him, and takes the coat off. Now he's fighting Austin and he's wearing Taker's ring attire! *drool* Damn, he looked great!!! I wish Glenn could wear that *all* the time! Anyway, they fight for a bit, then Austin flips him over the top rope and of course he lands on his feet.

They fight outside the ring for a bit, then Kane throws Austin over the railing and into the crowd. Kane follows him over, and they fight through the crowd to another railing. Austin throws Kane over this one, and he flips over and lands on his back. (OUCH!!) Austin then picks him up and throws him into the back of the hearse he'd driven into the arena earlier in the show.

Austin slams the back of the hearse, goes around to the drivers' side door and tries to open it, but it's locked. He looks inside, and Taker snaps his head around to face him, then drives off with his brother in the back of the hearse. Cahoots? Sure looks that way to me!

My Thoughts For 8.10.98:

What a crappy Raw! The only good parts were the Taker and Kane parts. Let's see..hmmm..well, first of all, Mankind came out and started talking about how there was only one person that he could trust and that person was Vince McMahon. Yeah right, Mick. Whatever. Anyway, Vince came out and yacked for awhile, then Kane comes out with Paul Bearer. Whoa! He's looking hot tonight! They get in the ring, and Paul starts going off on Vince, saying he wasn't going to let him get inside his head or his "son's" head. He says he was there for his son for twenty long years while he suffered, and Vince wasn't going to mess that up. Of course Vince, being the jerk that he is, says that Kane is not Bearer's son, (Kane does the head tilt here..yow!), that he was a son of a bitch. He thought he was the Undertaker. *snicker* They look soo different in that outfit it's not even funny..it was obviously the real Kane.

Anyway, McMahon demands that Kane take off his mask and show the world that he's the Undertaker, but Kane doesn't move, so Vince goes to take the mask off him, but the lights go out. It's dark for about half a minute or so, then the lights come up and UT is in the ring choking McMahon. He knocks both Mankind and Bearer down, then leaves up the rampway. Kane is nowhere in sight.

The only other time we see Kane is at the Four-Corners Tag Team Match for the Titles. The match is Rock/D-Lo vs. New Age Outlaws vs. Undertaker/Austin vs. Kane/Mankind. The match is pretty dull. Kane only gets in twice. Once when he throws someone (already forgot who) around in the corner, and later at the end of the match. He's tagged in and chokeslams his brother, pinning him and getting the three count. Kane and Mankind are the Tag Team Champs once again! Woohoo! Oh, I did forget one part..at one point, we see Undertaker entering the locker room and Kane is already in there..Hmmm..smells like they're working together to me. I hope so. Well, that's it for this week.
