McMahon made fun of Lawler still having to drink mouthwash and accused Lawler of still having bad breath&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>-Tod Pettengill announced Diesel would face Sid in a lumberjack match. He then announced the lumberjacks. They then showed Jarrett after last week&#8217;s Raw went off the air challenging Michaels to enter the ring and agreeing to a match against Michaels. Michaels put on Jarrett&#8217;s IC belt and fended off an attack by Jarrett and Roadie.

It was well-produced and Jarrett was pretty good. At this point it&#8217;s tough to tell where this gimmick is going&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>(2) Bob Holly beat Steve Lombardi. Lawler continued to gloat over how good the music video was&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>(3) Henry Godwinn defeated Barry Horowitz.

Barry the Pitchman plugged t-shirts as Sid made his ring entrance. Ted DiBiase motioned for Godwinn to retain at ringside. On his way to the ring, Bigelow encountered Godwinn and had a brief brawl with him. Several minutes into the match, Bigelow caught Sid&#8217;s big boot aimed for his face. Bigelow then tried an enzuigiri, but Sid ducked. Sid then nailed Bigelow with a boot to the face that hit its target. Moments later, with Sid on the mat, Bigelow went for a top rope splash, but Godwinn knocked him off the ropes. Sid covered him for the pin. Sid then powerbombed Bigelow after the match&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><em>ARTICLE CONTINUED BELOW&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Check out the latest episode of &#8220;PWTorch &#8217;90s Pastcast&#8221; with Patrick Moynahan and Alex McDonald, part of the PWTorch Dailycast line-up: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/episode\/pwtorch-90s-pastcast-moynahan-mcdonald-discuss-pwtorch-newsletter-340-6-24-95-including-wcw-great-american-bash-review-more--66846318\">CLICK HERE<\/a> to stream (or search \u201cwade keller\u201d on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or any other iOS or Android app to subscribe free)<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PWTorch \u201890s Pastcast - Moynahan &amp; McDonald discuss PWTorch Newsletter #340 (6-24-95) including WCW Great American Bash review, more\" src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/player?episode_id=66846318&amp;theme=light&amp;playlist=false&amp;playlist-continuous=false&amp;chapters-image=true&amp;episode_image_position=right&amp;hide-logo=false&amp;hide-likes=false&amp;hide-comments=false&amp;hide-sharing=false&amp;hide-download=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"200px\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>-A well-produced video piece aired on the Special Olympics including a clip of Diesel saying that the Special Olympics are the purest form of sports because it&#8217;s not about commercial time-outs and endorsements&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>(5) Waylon Mercy defeated Jeff Hardy.
