Monday Night Raw
April 19, 1993
Poughkeepsie, NY
Mid-Hudson Civic Center

The current WWF champs were as follows:
World Champion: Hulk Hogan (4/4/1993)
Intercontinental Champion: Shawn Michaels (10/27/1992)
World Tag Team Champions: Money Inc. (10/13/1992)

Tonight’s main event: Money Inc. takes on the Beverly Brothers! Very strange promo to advertise as both teams take turns standing around in darkness staring off into the nothingness of space as they each announce to the world that they are fairly confident that they will win. Feels like the inspiration came from some weak 1980s music video.

Your hosts are Vince McMahon, Randy Savage, and Rob Bartlett. (more…)

Monday Night Raw
March 15, 1993
Poughkeepsie, NY
Mid-Hudson Civic Center

The current WWF champs were as follows:
World Champion: Bret Hart (10/12/1992)
Intercontinental Champion: Shawn Michaels (10/27/1992)
World Tag Team Champions: Money Inc. (10/13/1992)

There’s a terrible BLIZZARD all over the northeastern US and apparently the Manhattan Center is snowed in! Somehow it’s not as bad just 80 miles north though, because we’re about to get RAW in Poughkeepsie. This marks the first episode to not take place in NYC. Enjoy!

Your hosts are Gorilla Monsoon, Bobby Heenan, and Rob Bartlett doing a horrible Vince McMahon impression. So bad, he’s just embarrassing himself. All he does right is the gravelly voice when Vince stretches out the word “Raw”, and that doesn’t really require any skills. (more…)

World Wrestling Federation presents RAW 3-15-1993

Intercontinental Champion: Shawn Michaels (10/27/1992)
World Tag Team Champions: Money Inc. (10/13/1992)

Your hosts are Jim Ross, Randy Savage & Bobby Heenan. At least there’s no Rob Bartlett. This would be JR’s WWF debut. JR and Heenan are both wearing togas to complete the ‘Roman empire’ theme for the night. Macho wears his usual extravagant ‘Macho Man’ attire, but only a tad more gay with the purple and gold. Hey wait a minute, those are WCW colors! (more…)
