WWF Superstars, August 9, 1997WWF Superstars, August 9, 1997The World Wrestling Federation.... for over four years, the symbol of excellence in sports entertainment.
(Superstars Theme plays.)
JR: HELLO EVERYBODY!! Welcome to WWF Superstars! I'm Jim Ross, along with Brian Pillman! Welcome Brian.
Pillman: You're damn right I am! I'm the World F'N Champion! I can go wherever the HELL I want to!
JR: Brian, this past TNT, you spoke with Heart Attack. She's here tonight, challenging Roxanne for the World Title!
Pillman: Roxanne is useless! Who can look up to her? It's pathetic watching her limp around and try to be a hero. Stay HOME! We don't want to see your scratched up face, and we don't want to hear her talk about that addiction, Rock-a-holism.
JR: It's NOT an addiction! Folks, the World Title is on the line tonight... Roxanne against Heart Attack! They had quite a match the LAST time they wrestled.
Pillman: New champion!
JR: I never thought I'd hear YOU pulling for Heart Attack! Also tonight, a buddy of yours, Raven! He'll team with Zeus to take on Demolition!There's quite a feud building there.
Pillman: At In Your House, Demolition jumped Raven from behind. I'd say that's a feud. Anything that's happened since then is only because of what Jim Cornette has forced his men to do. Any blood tonight will be on HIS hands.
JR: Any news on the Texas Tornado match?
Pillman: I think Cornette is trying to beg his way out of it. Don't quote me on that though... he may be groveling or pleading instead.
JR: Raven's... uh... friend I suppose, Valetia Von Strahden will be here. She'll be taking on Gold-Dust... in a BULLROPE MATCH! That'll be a WAR!
Pillman: And VVS can use that rope and cowbell anyway she wants. There won't be a disqualification this time for Gold-Dust. Why won't these Femmes accept her challenge? It's just like when Perfect and Madusa were challenging Taylor Tech. Rather then accept, they just pointed out all the times the match COULDN'T take place, rather then make provision so it COULD take place!
JR: Well...I...! I'll be darned! I've got to agree with you on that one! The Femme's seem to be ducking VVS' challenge. In fact, I'm not too sure the Femmes are even a unit anymore.
Pillman: That'll tick Ted DiBiase off pretty good won't it? HAHAHA!
"The One" by White Zombie plays and the fans stand and cheer, looking to the entrway, suprised, as "The Self Made Man" S.B. Peterson with his baseball bat in hand followed by Yokozuna (with his bat in hand) and The Great Muta will make thier way to the ring. He grabs a mic on the way inside and plays to the crowd a little. He then begins to speak.
S.B. Peterson: You know, I have had many questions thrown at me in the back as of late. So, I figured I would address them here and now infront of the fans of the WWF. Many people have asked me, why have I been coming out at Raven's matches. Is it to watch his back or is it to get at Jimmy Cornette? First let me say, (looks at Pillman at broadcast booth) that Raven, Brian Pillman (points to Pillman), Steve Austin, Stardom, Major and everyone in the New Revolution has my respect. Even if Cornette wasnt involved, I'd still watch thier back. Hell, Sabrina has done put together one of the most powerful..(thinks for a minute, chosing his words carfully) and talented groups in the WWF. With that said and done, now I move on to James E. "Wide Body" Cornette. The arena turns to boos at the sound of Cornette's name.
(Chant of "CORNETTE SUCKS!" erupts from crowd which puts a huge smile on S.B. Peterson's face)
Cornette, you made one of the biggest mistakes in your career. First you have to cheat to get Justin "Sparrow" Bradshaw past my man, the Great Muta. Then, your man attacks a man I used to manage, Diesel. You want to get me angry, you have done that. Now Cornette, you have to pay the price for the choices in life you have made. Just ask Lex Lugar what the price is. I'm sure he remembers well. First Cornette, Muta wants a rematch with Bradshaw and as for Demolition well, Ax and Smash (laughs). Muta is not a tag team wrestler so if you want to step in the ring with him so bad, you can do it next week in a singles match on Superstars and then RAW. Come get some of him (points to the Great Muta). Cornette your days in the WWF are numbered. Could I be wrong? I DON'T THINK SO!!! The arena erupts, some yelling along with S.B. I DON'T THINK SO!!! (Peterson and his men leave the ring and head back as the slap hands with the fans but are ready for any attack)
The camera goes back to Ross and Pillman.
JR: What about THAT, Brian? Peterson gave the New Revolution some respect!
Pillman: One of the few times any of us got ANY respect! I'd like to thank him for that. And I would also like to send out my sympathy to him.
JR: Why's THAT?
Pillman: He's making challenges toward Cornette's men! He'll NEVER get a straight answer! Cornette will try to twist it around, duck the challenge, then hope everybody FORGETS about it. Did you ever hear of a Chamber of Horrors match, J.R.?
JR: May 31st, Superstars Revenge. Yes I have.
Pillman: Cornette hasn't. Or so he claims in the back.
The curtains part again... and stepping through.. it's the Badd Boy Derrick Stardom. Stardom has a chair and he walks down the runway to the half-way point. He turns to face the entryway... props up the chair, and takes a seat, facing the curtains. Stardom ignores the fans.
JR: Alright Brian, what's your new-found friend doing up there?
Pillman: He's sick and tired of JoBo. He's just there to keep a close watch on him. To make sure he doesn't get out of hand. That's all.
JR: I know Stardom. This can't be a good thing.
Pillman: Don't you worry. Everything is under control.
JR: Folks, our opening contest features JoBo... against Monolith! Monolith made the SILENT challenge recently... and the WWF signed the match. The TALLEST man in the federation will meet one of the heaviest! Two rookie sensations right here in our opening contest... let's get started!!! JoBo and ZoBo are standing by...
