RESULTS: Monday Night Raw June 23, 1997

Jim Ross is shown down at the announcers table. Sitting next to him... Roxanne.

JR: Alright folks... it's time... for the CAREER ENDING STRETCHER MATCH!! Roxanne, thank you for joining me!

Roxanne: It's my pleasure J.R. I wouldn't miss this for ANYTHING! I would HATE to see something like Derrick Stardom LEAVE the WWF!

JR: Let's go backstage to him now.... he's with Heart Attack.

BADD BOY DERRICK STARDOM PRE-MATCH COMMENTS

Stardom is back in the Raw-buttal area. Heart Attack has her arms wrapped around his body and is smiling seductively toward him. Stardom's head is tilted back and he looks down at the camera.

Stardom: Well, well... if it isn't time for the CAREER ENDING STRETCHER MATCH!! After tonight, BBDS will chalk up ANOTHER ONE on Taylor Tech. First 'Flawless'... and now Scott Hall.

Stardom takes one arm away from Heart Attack and slides his shades down to the edge of his nose before continuing.

Stardom: That's the difference between an athlete like myself... and all of the OTHERS who say they're against Taylor Tech.... or the Empire before them.... or the Corporation... or the Horsemen.... or any OTHER group that this tightly-wrapped bod of an earth-walkin' god fought SINGLE-HANDEDLY over the years. I could care LESS about what the fans think of me when I'm cavin' in somebody's head, and kickin' carcass all around ringside.

Stardom pulls Heart Attack even closer to himself. She snuggles in.

Stardom: HALL! I want you to remember something... when you're at home, flipping through the channels and wondering just WHY you got chico-manged right out of the WWF. Remember... that as per usual... someone started it on BBDS... and he just took it to the NEXT level. You said you would kick my ass whenever you felt like it? Well for all your years in this sport, you think you would have learned by now. Be Like ME! Don't just SAY you're going to do something... DO IT!

Stardom: And while we're on the subject of... 'all your years'. Think about this, CHICA! You're PAST your prime. You walked the Razor's edge and slipped right off the side, slicin' up your face in the FALL. But the trail that you hiked is light years beneath the celestial heavens where BBDS makes his home. And my galaxy is still forming! I have YET to hit my stride. Take a look at this...

Stardom motions to himself and to Heart Attack.

Stardom: THIS is what will take wrestling into the NEXT MILLENIUM! Not you Hall... or Dallas Page.... or the Blackjacks. But the Badd Boy Derrick Stardom and Heart Attack. And if you think that I'm going to roll over... and cough up my career tonight, then Mexi-melt... you've got another thing comin'! I am the Badd Boy Derrick Stardom. I am the STRAW that stirs the drink. I am the Measuring Stick of the Wrestling WORLD. The GREATEST Intercontinental Champion of ALL TIME... a RECORD TEN successful title victories.... and as always, the HOTTEST piece of REAL ESTATE in the GALAXY.... the man that controls the celestial heavens.... kicks carcass with the WHITE GLOVE treatment... and looks OH-SO FLY... IN THE DOIN' SO!

Stardom: And CHICA... Scott Hall. Not EVEN McDonald's will take you on after tonight. The only thing you'll be doin'....

Stardom does his best Scott Hall impersonation.

Stardom: Chico, I don't know what happened to your sports section, mang. It was there when I delivered it yesterday, chico. Maybe your dog got a hold of it... and CARVED IT UP!

Stardom tilts his head back and chuckles to himself.

Stardom: H.A.... DO THE HONORS!

Heart Attack kisses her hand, then blows the kiss. The lights in the Raw-buttal area click off, leaving a computer-generated back-drop of stars.

Heart Attack: The pleasure... was all yours.....

JR: Well... he seems ready! Scott Hall is making his way down to the ring now with Susannah Helmsley. She'd better keep her distance from this one.

Roxanne: That's right... matches like these are ONLY between the two that have their careers on the line.

JR: A CAREER ENDING STRETCHER MATCH! First time on regular TV... and only the THIRD EVER in WRESTLING!! Let's head up to the ring!!!
