After a top rope elbow drop by Michaels, Del Rey kicked out. But moments later, Michaels put Del Rey out with a superkick and scored a three count. In his post-match celebration, Michaels did a strip tease pulling his tights down several inches&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Highlights aired of Jeff Jarrett&#8217;s concert performance and Michaels&#8217;s IC Title victory over Jeff Jarrett. McMahon said there was dissention in the ranks afterward and made the first on-air suggestion that Jarrett did not actually sing the song. He then said that Roadie accused Jarrett of lip synching and said that Roadie may have actually been the singer. McMahon said Jarrett may never sing again, &#8220;that is if he sang the first time&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>McMahon announced the WWF would be going on-line with &#8220;America On-Line&#8221; sometime before SummerSlam which explains his mention of the &#8220;Internet&#8221; a few weeks back on Raw&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><em>ARTICLE CONTINUED BELOW&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Check out the latest episode of &#8220;Wrestling Coast to Coast&#8221; with Chris Maitland and Justin McClelland, part of the PWTorch Dailycast line-up: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/episode\/wrestling-coast-to-coast-maitland-mcclelland-review-etu-summer-madness-3-including-santana-vs-tankman-plus-slammiversary-live-report--67095904\">CLICK HERE<\/a> to stream (or search \u201cpwtorch\u201d on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or any other iOS or Android app to subscribe free)<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wrestling Coast to Coast - Maitland &amp; McClelland review ETU Summer Madness 3 including Santana vs. Tankman plus Slammiversary live report\" src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/player?episode_id=67095904&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>(2) The Smoking Gunns won a squash.

He talked about Sid blaming Michaels for his loss in the lumberjack match. A Mabel promo aired where Mabel said Diesel isn&#8217;t worthy of being champion nor he is worthy of even being in the WWF&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The Bret Hart-Hakushi feud was recapped&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>(3) Bret Hart defeated Hakushi in the TV main event. Both guys hit some hot moves, especially Hakushi with a standing moonsault from the ring over the top rope to the Bret at ringside. Bret put Hakushi away with the sharpshooter. After the match, he piledrove Shinjya. McMahon said that may be the last time we see Shinjya&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Dean Douglas (Troy Martin, a\/k\/a Shane Douglas) debuted in an intro segment.
