The Raw Attitude Podcast

November 15th / 16th, 1998: A new WWF Champion will be crowned in a WWF Title Tournament at "Survivor Series," so we had to bring on Lee Carlos Cunningham from the Raw Is Nitro Podcast to discuss one of his all-time favorite pay-per-views! What happens on this show and on the following night's episode of "Raw"? Join us for this mega-episode and find out! "Survivor Series 1998" Card: Tournament First Round Match: "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. The Big Boss Man Tournament First Round Match: The Rock vs. Triple-H(?) Tournament First Round Match: Mankind vs. a mystery opponent Tournament First Round Match: Ken Shamrock vs. Goldust Tournament First Round Match: X-Pac vs. Steven Regal Tournament First Round Match: Al Snow vs. Jeff Jarrett Tournament Quarterfinal Match: The Undertaker vs. Kane (both men have byes in the first round) WWF Tag Team Champions The New Age Outlaws vs. The Headbangers vs. Mark Henry & D'Lo Brown WWF Women's Champion Jacqueline vs. Sable November 16th, 1998 "Monday Night Raw": (***Spoilers for "Survivor Series 1998" below!***) The new "Corporate Champion" The Rock tells the world why he sided with The McMahons, but his celebration is cut short when "Stone Cold" Steve Austin informs him that he is owed a title match tonight! In one of the more infamous segments in the history of "Raw," Road Warrior Hawk climbs the TitanTron and threatens to kill himself on live television as Animal, Droz, and Paul Ellering attempt to calm him down. X-Pac & The New Age Outlaws team up to battle The Oddities, whose alliance with The Insane Clown Posse may be coming to an end. WWF Intercontinental Champion Ken Shamrock calls out The Big Boss Man because he has cost Shamrock several matches over the past few weeks. The unlikely pairing of Goldust & Steve Blackman join forces to take on Jeff Jarrett & The Blue Blazer.... but who exactly is inside the Blazer costume? Val Venis steps into the ring with Mark Henry, although "The World's Strongest Man" appears to be more interested in the returning Chyna. The Godfather and Steven Regal are scheduled to have a match, but "The Real Man's Man" may not be able to pass up the pimp's offer to spend the night with three of his finest hoes. Plus, Mankind seeks revenge on Vince McMahon, Kane wanders around the arena for no apparent reason, and The WWE Network leaves a homophobic slur completely uncensored. Enjoying the Podcast?
