An abbreviated report tonight, if you want details of anything you see here,
mail me.  I'll be better next time, but I'm home, you know?  It doesn't help
when the line to CSUStanislaus line spontaneously dies on Monday nights.
Anyway, you don't want to know any of that...you want results.  So here they
are. 

WWF Monday Night RAW of 16.8.93 is "live" from the Mid-Hudson Civic Center
in Poughkeepsie, New York.  Your hosts are Vincent K. McMahon, Randy Savage,
and Bobby Heenan.

In a return match, the 1-2-3 Kid won by DQ over the Multimillion Dollar Man
after taking a major shellackin', coming back, and being pushed from behind
by IRS.  The save is made by (of all folks) the Steiner Brothers.

Savage promises another midget appearance, well actually a "surprise" later
in the show.  Gee, I wonder.

Headshrinkers seem fine to me.  They knock out Mike Khoury and Dave Moraldo.

SummerSlam Report, sponsored by Chevy trucks.

Bastion Booger, after eating a WWF Ice Cream bar, destroys Marty Jannetty,
except that Jannetty has a SummerSlam match, so he kicks out of the squash
and reverses for a pin.

Promos:  ICOPRO (Luger), GI Joe

Vince interviews Money, Limited, setting up both SummerSlam matches as well
as the title match this Sunday.  The "Isn't Rotunda Stupid" sign was funnier
when I thought it said "It's Rotunda, Stupid!"

M.O.M., amazingly, defeat the formidable team of Sharpe and Horowitz.

Who is Lex Luger?  Steroids are bad, ICOPRO is good.

Bam Bam Bigelow destroys Rich Myers.  Luna Tunes has some strange cuts in
the cleavage area in her outfit.

Promos:  Jurassic Park Action Figures, Slim Jim (Savage), WWF Royal Rumble
carts for SNES ("It's Perfect!")

The Macho Midget brings out four RAW girls, and everyone cheers.  Some
surprise.

The SummerSlam Spectacular is this Sunday at 8 pm EDT!  Two hours of
explosive action!  And a full blown drag out big time report from yours
truly!  Matches include Steiners/Money for the Tag Titles, in a steel cage,
Michaels/Backlund for the IC title, Hacksaw/Zima, and an Undertaker
interview (about time for some rules, isn't it?)

Just pretend I'm on vacation for now...coming up, in-depth reports of the
Stockton, CA house show as well as the previously hyped SSS.
