RESULTS: Monday Night Raw May 19, 1997
...BIG SPLASH ONTO BRET'S BACK!!! Taylor gets out.
JR: MY GOD!!! WE'LL BE LUCKY IF THE RING STAYS TOGETHER!!!!
The Giant yanks up Bret... and sets him on the top rope. Bret teeters there... trying to get his bearings. The Giant moves back... then rushes at the Anvil!!! Neidhart ducks out of the path of the Giant and the referee moves to get the Giant back into the match.....
Meanwhile, Taylor leaps up onto the ropes behind Bret. He hooks his head.... BULLDOG FROM THE TOP!!! Taylor quickly rolls out. The Giant and the ref turn back to the Hitman... who is now down! The ref looks suspiciously at Taylor who is at ringside with Luxury. He plants a kiss on her then climbs up onto the apron.
The Giant reaches down and grabs Bret by the throat... he hoists him up like a toy.... CHOKE SLAM!!!! The Giant stretches out on Bret, hooking the leg... 1... 2... 3.... !!!!!!
JR: NEW CHAMPIONS!!!!
King: YES!! New Tag Champs! Incredible! Luxury's picked a winning team here!!
The Anvil helps up Bret and they roll out of the ring, heading up he aisle looking VERY angry.
Vincer: What are the odds on ALL the titles changing hands tonight?
Terry Taylor and the Giant get into the ring. Terry has the microphone.
Taylor: Ladies and gentlemen... Miss Cecily Helmsley!!!
Luxury... or Cecily Helmsley.... leaps into their arms, holding the tag title belts over head head!
Taylor: TAYLOR TECH, THE PEOPLES STABLE, JUST GOT A LOT MORE SEXY, AND A LOT MORE DANGEROUS!!!!
Winners, and new Unified Tag Team Champions: Money, Incorporated
JR: Unbelievable! Terry Taylor has a WWF title... but he isn't a WWF wrestler! Piper's going to have to make a ruling on THIS one! And speaking of rulings... and just Titan Tower....
MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE
Macho is dressed in a conservative and still casual dress shirt, tie and pants. He's behind a desk in Titan Tower. He's still wearing his shades.

Macho: The brand NEW.... WWF WORLD T.V. CHAMPION!!!! DIG IT!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!! Now a lot of you MAY remember that that title was around way back in 1993... and EARLY 1994. There was only TWOOOOO people to have EVER been the WWF T.V. Champion.... Crush won it first.... and dropped it to Barry Windham five months later. And that was it before the title disappeared....
