[1997-12-22-WWF-Raw] Mankind and the New Age Outlaws

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

We see the NAO looking for Foley in the lower rungs of the arena, only to be attacked by Mankind while he screams the words to "Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire". The NAO end up pushing Mankind into a freezer and locking it!

This was the first time Raw had won a head-to-head segment in quite some time wasn't it? Due to the nWo nitro changeover happening on the other channel.

I don't know about the quarter hour breakdown but this RAW only deepened my Seasonal Holiday Depression that year.

Outlaws go looking for Mankind and end up locking him in a freezer. Hopefully Dude Love gets him out of there.

We get a decent boiler room brawl before the NAO are able to lock Mick into a freezer.

There were some amusing little setpieces leading up to this, with Gunn and Road Dogg searching for Mankind in coal miner's helmets and embarrassing themselves. The NAO have gotten almost as much heat on them as DX have but both guys know when to and how to make asses of themselves as need be.

[Exposer]

This is fun. NAO search for Mankind in the "bowels" of the building. They look all over the place & even attack a random guy who they thought was Mankind in a funny moment. Mankind attacks them in the last bit & they have a fun boiler room brawl as he sings "Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire." NAO manage to lock him in a freezer to end the segment.
