[1996-11-04-WWF-Raw] Karate Fighters commercial

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Sid faces Marlena in the Karate Fighters tournament. Sid makes quick work of Marlena, and she promises him he'll never work in this town again, which made me laugh. Next week, Doc Hendrix vs Sable!

So while WCW was soon getting into the hottest angle of the decade, WWF had *this* on RAW ? Fascinating.

It was a promotional tie-in with a toy comapny, not actual matches.

That line was funny. I love Terri Runnels. Easily the hottest valet to me at this point.

Marlena looks absolutely smoking. She jobs in short order and asks for a re-shoot.

This is funny because it comes in right after Pillman cocks the gun at Austin. The perfect representation of 1996 WWF having an identity crisis. Fun commercial though with Sid beating Marlena & Marlena saying the "You'll never work in this town again!" line to her karate fighter action figure. These were entertaining.

I thought Sid might pull a Paul E against Missy by staring into Marlenas two big beautiful eyes but it was not to be as he wins and celebrates quickly.

I watched all the November RAWs recently as actually enjoyed these bits a lot. I love how once Sid wins the World Title, he gets too big for britches and pulls out of the tournament. WWF was killing it with the triumvirate of Sunny, Sable & Marlena.
