Steve Austin in a Suit; DX Goes Full Savage & Kane Torches The Family Gravesite
Description
This week on New to Wrestling, we dive into the Raw is War episode from April 6, 1998 — the night the Attitude Era officially kicked into high gear. From Vince McMahon trying to force Stone Cold into a corporate stooge suit, to Cactus Jack’s heartbreaking “last words,” to DX wreaking havoc backstage (and yes, urinating on motorcycles), this episode had it all.
We break down the chaos:
- Vince vs. Austin: the suit, the nut shot, and the new merch drop 💥
- Cactus Jack’s heel-turn vibes and emotional mic work 🎤
- DX’s first wild night as a full squad
- The Rock flexing as IC Champ while Owen Hart fights back
- Kane & Paul Bearer taking things way too far with Undertaker’s family 👀
- Plus a cringe-worthy Val Venis Promo (yes, really)
It’s Raw. It’s unhinged. It’s the Attitude Era in full sprint.
