RAW is WAR: 22/6/1998
RAW is WAR was live at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas. The upcoming match was the Bladewolf vs Marc Mero in the Quarterfinals of the 1998 King of the Ring tournament. In the arena, Marc Mero's theme hits to boos and out he comes with Jaqueline.
"The following King of the Ring Quarterfinal match is scheduled for one-fall with a 20 minute time limit." Tony Chimel announced. "Making his way to the ring, being accompanied by Jaqueline, from Buffalo, new York, weighing 245 lbs... MARVELOUS MARC MERO!"
"Marc Mero and Jaqueline making their way down to the ring. This is another Quarterfinal matchup in the King of the Ring tournament. Marc Mero vs the Bladewolf here, the winner advances into the Semi-finals to take on Ken Shamrock this Sunday at the King of the Ring PPV." Michael Cole said, recounting what they know and for those just joining in.
Mero and Jaqueline enter the ring and pose together-
OOOOOOWHOOOOOO!
The Devil's Wolf by Jim Johnston plays to a loud pop from the fans and the lights dim to a mix of blood red and dark blue before fire explodes on the stage and out comes the Bladewolf to a loud pop from the fans, with the WWF Intercontinental Championship around his waist.
"And his opponent, from Death Valley, weighing 310 lbs, he is the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Champion... THE BLADEWOLF!" tony Chimel announced before leaving the ring.
"Bladewolf defeated Jeff Jarrett to advance to this match a couple of weeks ago." Cole recounted. "he beats Marc Mero tonight, he will go on to face Ken Shamrock in the semi-finals this Sunday at the PPV, and if he beats Ken Shamrock, he advances to the finals."
"Bladewolf is certainty king of the Ring material." JR said. "Nobody has been as dominant in under a year as Bladewolf has been. Not even a year into the business and Bladewolf has beaten many, dominated many, been in the main event of his first WrestleMania to win the WWF Championship, and is now the WWF Intercontinental Champion and could be the King of the Ring if he wins it all. This has truly been a big year for him."
"Bladewolf defeated the Rock a few weeks ago to win the Intercontinental title and has held it since then." Cole said.
Bladewolf gets onto the ring apron and climbs over the top rope, his eyes on Mero who gulped nervously as the Demon Wolf stares at him with those demonic hellfire eyes as the lights return to normal and Bladewolf takes off his trench coat, followed by his Intercontinental Championship which he hands to someone at ringside as his theme dies down.
The referee calls for the bell to begin the match.
'Ding! Ding! Ding!'
"These two have faced each other in the past." JR reminded as Mero keeps well away from the masked man who just stares at him. "And Bladewolf is... making no move towards Mero, just standing there like a statue."
Mero takes a small step towards Bladewolf and that's when the Intercontinental Champion strikes as he uppercuts Mero, then gets him into the corner as he hammers away with lefts and rights all over the body.
"Bladewolf attacking! Unloading with lefts and rights all over Mero's body!" JR exclaimed.
Bladewolf then begins viciously kneeing Mero in the gut time and time again until his defence is broken, allowing the Bladewolf to nail another uppercut to the chin.
"What an uppercut!" JR exclaims.
Bladewolf stomps away on Mero hard before delivering a headbutt to the forehead of Mero, then picks him up before hitting a Suplex across the ring. Bladewolf gets to a knee and keeps his glare on his opponent. Bladewolf sees Mero beginning to get to his feet and his eyes darken as he gets to his feet, walks over, and starts beating down on Mero with hammering rights and lefts, forcing Mero to cover up until Bladewolf gets to his feet and pills Mero up with him then grabs him by the throat with the crowd cheering afterwards.
"Oh no! I think we all know what Bladewolf has in store for Mero!" JR exclaims.
Bladewolf goes to lift Mero and...PLANTS HIM WITH A CHOKESLAM TO HELL!
"Chokeslam!" JR exclaims.
Bladewolf grabs Mero and scoops him onto his shoulder and holds him...BEFORE HE DRIVES MERO'S HEAD INTO THE MAT WITH A TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!
"Tombstone!" JR exclaimed as Bladewolf hooks the leg. "Now the cover!"
"One!"
"Two!"
"Three! Ring the bell!" The referee ordered.
'Ding! Ding! Ding!'
The Devil's Wolf plays to cheers from the fans as Bladewolf stands and flips his hair back. "Here is your winner... THE BLADEWOLF!" Tony Chimel announced as Bladewolf is given his Intercontinental Championship which he places on his left shoulder before he leaves the ring. The crowd cheers loudly when Sable walks out onto the stage, smirking at Mero in the ring and dressed in a tight leather outfit.
Bladewolf stops on the stage and tilts his head at her. Sable struts towards him, hips swaying as she placed a hand on his chest but Bladewolf brushes past her as he heads backstage.
"Guess Bladewolf's not charmed by Sable's good looks." Cole chuckled...
