Night Raw
Date: May 22, 1995
Location: Broome County Arena, Binghamton, New York
Commentators: Vince McMahon, Jerry Lawler
Opening sequence.
Vince and Jerry have their opening chat.
Razor Ramon vs. Mike Bell
Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs. John Crystal
We go to Bob Backlund campaign headquarters for his first campaign ideas: children must purchase a dictionary, read one great American novel every week, ban calculators and computers and get rid of summer vacations. As a seven year old, this TERRIFIED me and I actually bought the whole thing.
Allied Powers vs. Bill Payne/Tony DeVito
The match almost immediately goes to a split screen so we can see Bulldog electric chair Mabel. Bulldog throws DeVito around, Luger throws Payne around and the powerslam ends Bill in a hurry.
We recap Bam Bam Bigelow vs. I.R.S. from last week.
Kama Mustafa vs. Barry Horowitz
Todd previews the Hall of Fame banquet, which is a really low level event at this point. Antonino Rocca is the first name announced for induction.
King of the Ring Qualifying Match: Shawn Michaels vs. King Kong Bundy
Bundy goes right after him to start so Michaels knees him in the back to put the big man on the floor. We take an early break and come back with Shawn hammering away, including some right hands in the corner. Michaels makes the mistake of going outside to mess with DiBiase though, allowing Bundy to hit him from behind and get in a slam on the floor.
Undertaker is ready for his King of the Ring qualifying match against Jeff Jarrett.
