RAW is WAR: 12/1/1998
RAW is WAR was live at Bryce Jordan Center in State College, Pennsylvania. In the arena, Stone Cold's theme hit to a pop from the fans and out comes Stone Cold Steve Austin who will be taking on the Bladewolf. The match was made due to Austin giving Bladewolf the Stone Cold Stunner last week and the Bladewolf wasn't letting it go until he got a match with the Rattlesnake.
Austin enters the ring and goes to all four corners of the ring, raising his arms before he gets down as his theme dies down.
OOOOOOWHOOOOOO!
The Devil's Wolf plays and the lights dim to a mix of blood red and dark blue/purple and out comes the Bladewolf to a loud pop from the fans. His demonic hellfore eyes glare coldly at Austin as he walks down the ramp. He gets onto the ring apron and steps over the top rope, takes off his coat as the lights go to normal and his theme dies down. Bladewolf dumps his coat outside the ring and faces Austin who showed no fear.
'Ding! Ding! Ding!'
Austin and Bladewolf wasted no time in going on the attack, instantly trading back and fourth right hands with one another in a slug fest until Bladewolf ducks a right and knees Austin in the stomach then drops a forearm across his back, sending Austin to a knee. Bladewolf drives his knee into the side of Austin's head then boots him in the side of the head when Austin went to his hands and knees. Bladewolf stomps away on Austin time and time again before backing off and adjusts his left elbow pad before walking over and grabs Austin who fights back with right hands.
"Austin fighting back!" JR exclaims. "He's fighting back, King."
"What's that gonna do? You need to make sure Bladewolf can't get back up if Austin hopes to pin him!" Lawler points out.
Austin keeps up the assault before he Irish whips Bladewolf off the ropes but Bladewolf comes back with a flying clothesline. He goes for the cover but Austin kicks out at two. Bladewolf gets to a knee and hammers away at Austin's skull, forcing the Rattlesnake to cover up. Bladewolf stands up before he stomps on Austin's stomach then hits a leg drop across Austin's throat, hooking the leg again but Austin kicks out at two once more.
Bladewolf gets to his feet, flipping his hair back before he grabs Austin once more and tosses him out of the ring near the commentary table. Bladewolf follows and grabs Austin, going to bash his face off the commentary table but Austin blocks it, elbows Bladewolf in the gut before driving his masked face into the table, sending the big monster to a knee.
"Bladewolf down to a knee now." JR notes. Austin grabs Bladewolf and repeatedly bashes his masked face off the table. "Good God! Austin repeatedly driving Bladewolf's face into the table right in front of us!"
Austin stops and shoves Bladewolf down. Bladewolf shakes his head before he was stomped on by Austin who picks him up before Irish whipping him straight into the steel steps, sending them right off.
"Good grief." Lawler says.
"Austin is doing whatever he can to hurt the Bladewolf and make sure he cannot get back up." JR says.
Austin walks over to Bladewolf who gets to a knee and suddenly whirls around, punching Austin in the stomach before standing up and headbutts Austin. Bladewolf grabs Austin and then bounces his head off the metal guard railing, sending Austin down to both knees, looking a little dizzy. Bladewolf grabs Austin and sends him back into the ring and rolls in after him to stop the referee's count.
Bladewolf tackles Austin down when he stood up and unloads with hammering rights into Austin's ribcage until Austin rolls them over and unleashes a fury of rights to the masked face of the Bladewolf until Bladewolf rolls them over and repeats the hammering fights.
"Good God, both of these men want to tear each other apart." Lawler says with wide eyes as both men roll about punching each other.
Bladewolf gets to his feet and pulls Austin to his before hitting hard rights to the forehead of Austin, causing the Rattlesnake to stumble back before Bladewolf goes for a clothesline but Austin boots Bladewolf in the gut and then shoves him...STRAIGHT INTO THE REFEREE!
"Oh God! The referee's down now, JR!" Lawler exclaims.
"there's no referee! Anything goes now!" JR says.
Bladeowlf and Austin went at it once more, throwing fights at each other until Bladewolf clotheslines Austin over the top rope and follows him. Bladewolf looks at the knocked out referee before he looks underneath the ring and pulls out a steel chair to a pop from the fans.
"Oh no." Lawler says with dread and worry.
"You do NOT want to let that man get his hands on any kind of weapon, he will use it in a sadistic fashion. Look at what he did to Triple H at Survivor Series last year." JR says.
Bladewolf lines the chair up before swinging...AND NAILS A CHAIR SHOT TO AUSTIN'S FOREHEAD! Bladewolf unloads with chair shot after chair shot to Austin before tossing the chair aside. Austin crawls up the ramp with Bladewolf following. Austin gets to his feet and the two slug it out once more, ending up at where the musical instruments were set up for that band that played earlier tonight.
They fight on it, trading back and fourth right hands until Bladewolf headbutts Austin then sets him up into a Powerbomb position but struggles to lift Austin up as the Rattlesnake fights back before he lifts Bladewolf over...AND BLADEWOLF LANDS ON THE CONCRETE BELOW!
"Oh my God! Did you hear that?!" JR asks. "Bone meeting concrete!"
"That had to hurt." Lawler winces.
Austin gets down from the band stage and grabs Bladewolf, bringing him towards the ring before he hits a suplex...AND BLADEWOLF'S LEG HITS THE STEEL STEPS! Bladewolf clutches his right leg in pain as Austin stands up. He grabs Bladewolf and pulls him to his feet but Bladewolf shoves him straight into the ring apron before he runs at Austin who avoids it and bashes Bladewolf's head off the apron then rolls him into the ring.
Austin slides into the ring and watches Bladewolf get to his feet and turn around before Austin kicks him in the stomach...AND HITS THE STONE COLD STUNNER!
"Stunner!" JR exclaimed. "Stone Cold Stunner!"
Austin hooks the leg! "One!"
"Two!"
"Thre-!" Bladewolf kicked out at two.
"Bladewolf kicks out!" JR shouted over the cheers as Austin gets to his feet, rebounds off the ropes and hits the elbow drop on the masked head of the Bladewolf. "Oof!"
"That gotta hurt." Jerry nodded.
Austin pulls Bladewolf to his feet, kicks him in the stomach...AND HITS ANOTHER STUNNER! HE hooks THE LEGS! ONE! TWO! THREE! STONE COLD HAS BEATEN THE BLADEWOLF!
'Ding! Ding! Ding!'
Austin's theme plays as the Rattlesnake celebrates his victory, looking forward to the Royal Rumble match. Bladewolf rolls out the ring, giving Austina glare before he heads up the ramp...
So Bladewolf lost to Austin, I think it was needed. The guy can't remind undefeated throughout the entire story, he's got to suffer a loss in matches as well.
