Episode 40: The Return of the Women's Championship!

The Raw Attitude Podcast

September 21st, 1998: With only six days to go until "Breakdown," Vince McMahon books The Brothers of Destruction to face WWF Champion "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and a partner..... if anyone volunteers to join him. The Rock, Mankind, and Ken Shamrock do battle in a Triple Threat Match to determine who will become the #1 contender for the title one week from tonight. For the first time in almost three years, the WWF decides to crown a new Women's Champion, and it will be the winner of the match between Sable and Jacqueline. In order to get a job with the company, Al Snow must defeat Commissioner Slaughter in a contest which is Sarge's specialty: The Boot Camp Match. D'Lo Brown puts his coveted European Title on the line against X-Pac as the rivalry between these two continues to escalate. Owen Hart faces Val Venis as a distraught Dustin Runnels looks on while doing commentary, and Dustin's night then proceeds to get even worse as Val introduces us to his newest movie. Jeff Jarrett goes one-on-one with Billy Gunn, who may have another trick up his sleeve before the night is over. The Oddities and Headbangers are scheduled to face each other, but an interesting turn puts the match in jeopardy. In a rare heel vs. heel tag match, Southern Justice faces The Disciples of Apocalypse, and the outcome of this one makes absolutely zero sense. Plus, Jim Cornette and Shane McMahon (unfortunately) fill in for Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler, and we get a random backstage appearance from Vince Russo! Meanwhile over on "Nitro," The Warrior hangs out with a Brutus Beefcake blow-up doll (yes, seriously)!
