WWF RAW
Miami Beach Auditorium (Jackie Gleason Theatre)
Miami, FL
January 1, 2007
Announcers: Jim Ross and Jesse "The Body" Ventura
Shown on: USA Network
RAW begins with a confident Bobby Heenan coming down to the ring, accompanied by all five members of his “Heenan Family”. (WWF champion Nick Bockwinkel, WWF Intercontinental champion Don Muraco, King Kong Bundy, The Masked Superstar, and a hobbling Mr. Perfect, complete with crutches!) Heenan reveled in the “Weasel! Weasel!” chants for a moment, before he began to speak.
Heenan: Listen up, humanoids! There’s a new boss in town and you’re lookin’ at him! If you all keep chanting that God-awful word, I’ll have each and every one of you throwin’ out of here by Mr. Bundy! Now there’s a new game, a new boss in town and he owns two of the three championship belts, however, due to circumstances beyond my control, and most likely a complete conspiracy job by the Stamford offices, Bundy and Superstar do not have possession of the Tag Team Titles. This will soon change, humanoids, because the pathetic excuse for tag team champions that we have now, Bob Orton and Larry Zbyszko won’t have a chance once my boys are properly conditioned and given a fair shake! So soon, humanoids, very soon RAW will be an entirely one man show, in fact I’m already thinking about taking the time and turning it into a talk show with just my guys, the Heenan Family Hour!
Just then, Captain Lou Albano makes his way down the aisle accompanied by “Nature Boy” Buddy Rogers and The Valiant Brothers! Miami goes crazy for Captain Lou and his protégés!
Albano: HEEEEEEEEENAN! Listen here, baby, you come out here runnin’ away at that mouth just yap, yap, yap and Capt. Lou is tired of hearing you! This ain’t no one man show and it ain’t going to be no one man show and nobody in this audience wants to hear any of your boys run off at their mouths for an hour! You want a conspiracy, “Brain”, you got one! I talked to the boys at the office in Stamford and they told me two things, 1) They wanta see the “Nature Boy” beat your little Hollywood Fashion Plate for his WWF Title at the Royal Rumble, and they wanta see these three men fight Bockwinkel, Superstar, and Bundy here tonight!
Heenan: You don’t have a contract for either of those matches, Albano! Either one! You are falsely advertising to these people and you could cause one of my wrestlers to have a nervous breakdown! You’re going to be getting sued all over the place, Albano! I’ve got an attorney on hold twenty-four seven!
Albano: Get your panties out of a bunch, Heenan! The boys in Stamford demanded the six-man and who am I to tell my bosses no?! And Buddy may not have a title match yet, but you wait, Heenan. Oh baby, just you wait! Ahahahahahaha!

The Flying Redheads defeated The Vachon Brothers
-Before the match, “Wild” Red Berry joined Jim Ross and Jesse Ventura on commentary. Ross and Ventura were putting over the intensity of the WWF Tag Team division while Red Berry was desecrating every team except his own. After the match, Berry grabbed a microphone:
Berry: Redheads!! If you have any man inside of you, then you’ll gladly accept a challenge from my Kangaroos for next week right inside that squared circle. If you’re anything like I think you are, then you’ll just prance along and continue facing losers like the Vachons every week! What’s it going to be, Redheads?
Bastien and Lyons nod their heads in agreement and Ross and Ventura tell us that the match will be signed!
(We join WWF Tag Team champions Bob Orton, Sr. and Larry Zbyszko in their locker-room.)
Orton, Sr.: You know, Larry, I don’t want to get a reputation of not being fighting champions. They’ve got this tag match scheduled for next week and…
Zbyszko: Listen, Orton! I don’t like you and you don’t like me! We became a tag team so we could win some tag team gold and that’s just what we did! Now I don’t care what you think but these titles only have to be defended every thirty days and that’s the plan I’m sticking with!
Orton, Sr.: Whatever you say, Larry…

Ilio Dipaolo defeated “Ravishing” Rick Rude via DQ when Rude threw Dipaolo into the ringpost.
-With the DQ victory, Dipaolo will be in one-on-one competition next week with Bob Orton, Sr. with the winner facing Nick Bockwinkel at the Royal Rumble!
(“The World’s Greatest Wrestler” Frank Gotch stood back stage with Bill Apter.)
Gotch: You know, tonight I have to face some ruffian from New York named Duggan in order to qualify for the Royal Rumble! A man as great as myself should be the automatic number one contender to the most important title in the business, not playing second fiddle to guys like Ilio Dipaolo and Bob Orton, Sr. Nonetheless, tonight I’m going to put you in the Toehold, Duggan! I’m gonna send you back to the hole in the ground you came from and then I’m going to start giving English lessons! Because I hear some cat named Mil Mascaras is going around here calling himself “the greatest of all time”, that has to be because of difficulties with the language barrier, ahahahaha!

WWF Tag Team champion Bob Orton, Sr. defeated “Playboy” Buddy Rose
- Decent match and Orton, Sr. is on a singles hot streak. He now prepares for his number-one contenders match next week against Dipaolo! After the match he grabbed a microphone and had a few words to say…
Orton, Sr.: Now my tag team partner and I differ very greatly on what I’m about to say, but I feel like you people pay your hard-earned money to see these titles and every title defended and everyone getting a fair shake! That’s why I’m announcing right here tonight, that next week at the Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis, Missouri, my tag team partner Larry Zbyszko and I are entering ourselves into the match between the Flying Redheads and the Fabulous Kangaroos and we’re putting our titles on the line!
Ross and Ventura spoke about Orton already being scheduled for a match next week against Dipaolo and being a part of the three-way dance! Things don’t look good for the Tag Team champions! Not to mention, Larry Zbyszko will not be happy about this!

Royal Rumble Qualifier: “The World’s Greatest Wrestler” Frank Gotch defeated “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan -Gotch easily defeated Duggan and qualifies for the Wrestlemania title shot! I guess now he goes on to give Mil Mascaras his “English lesson”.
(George Hackenschmidt is standing by in the backstage area!)
Hackenschmidt: Mil Mascaras, you are a very weak excuse for a man! In my country men like you would crumble at the events that we forced to confront every day! In just a few moments I’m going to go to the ring, finish you off and march towards Wrestlemania so I can claim what is rightfully mine, the WWF Title!

Royal Rumble Qualifier: Mil Mascaras defeated George Hackenschmidt via count-out
-After the match, Hackenschmidt ran into the ring and ambushed Mil Mascaras, applying the Russian Bear Hug. Frank Gotch stood at the entrance ramp applauding during the entire thing.
(We see Buddy Rogers getting some water from a water cooler when he is approached by Nick Bockwinkel.)
Bockwinkel: Doesn’t sound like you’ll be getting a title shot, huh, Rogers? Those bush-leaguers Dipaolo and Orton are being considered for contention and not you? Sounds like I’m in for a long title reign.
Rogers: Just think, Bockwinkel, if I pin you tonight in the middle of the ring, the WWF rules state that I get a title shot, any time, any place. When you least expect it, Bockwinkel. Hell, I could demand a title shot the night of the Rumble before—or after—your title defense. You just never know, Nick. See ya around, pally.

Royal Rumble Qualifier: WWF Tag Team champion Larry Zbyszko defeated Bobo Brazil
-An early MOTY contender, back and forth action that saw both men making several pinfall attempts. In the end though, the co-Tag Team champion was too much for Bobo and Zbyszko now makes his way into the Royal Rumble. After the match he grabbed J.R.’s headset and said this:
Zbyszko: I’m not responsible for Orton’s “hero”, and I use that term very lightly, actions! It’s a disgusting display of chauvinism and stupidity! However his and all these other morons, insatiable need to be some heroic male archetype is probably going to lead to me ultimately losing my Tag Team Titles! I’m so upset, I just can’t speak anymore! Talk this back, Ross, and justify Orton’s pigheaded actions some more!
(We see Rogers and the Valiants getting ready to go to battle with the Heenan Family!)
-ADVERT-
WWF champion Nick Bockwinkel, King Kong Bundy, and The Masked Superstar w/ Bobby “The Brain” Heenan defeated “Nature Boy” Buddy Rogers and the Valiant Brothers when Superstar pinned Rogers.
-Close match, that almost saw Rogers pin Bockwinkel. Unfortunately, the Heenan Family regained control and Rogers couldn’t get back to his corner for a tag. After the match Bockwinkel had Bundy and Superstar hold Rogers has he held the WWF Title in his face telling him that he would never taste of the gold! RAW faded to black with that image…
Next week on RAW:
MAIN EVENT
Three-way dance for the WWF Tag Team Titles
Bob Orton, Sr. and Larry Zbyszko (c) vs. The Fabulous Kangaroos vs. The Flying Redheads
PLUS! Don Muraco will be on Buddy Rogers' Corner!
