This week, Goldust is in a wheelchair but is sporting a similar look to last week. Michael Cole wants to talk to Goldust and ask what type of weapon he used to hit Vader last week. He says he's paraplegic, then changes to quadriplegic and this crowd sucks. Then again, the WWF at this stage was pretty bad after such a strong year. This gets really weird when he gets turned on by the rubbing alcohol being put on his back by his nurse. Vader is out to hopefully save this segment and tells Goldust he better get out of the chair. He goes to attack Goldust, then the nurse attacks Vader by pouring rubbing alcohol in his eyes. Ouch! It's Luna!

But they had such a good run during the year and momentum was gaining. The ratings weren't there yet but you did feel things were changing. Survivor Series as a whole wasn't a very good PPV and losing Bret was huge. But Austin continues his rise and they are starting to move things with Rock. They were now going to have push more guys from the midcard up like Triple H. Vader ain't do much now though. He beat Taker in January has his push has really gone away. Luna debuts with Goldust which will lead to more bizarre stuff.

"The question that is on everybody's mind: WHAT did you hit. Vader. With?" Yeah, THAT'S the burning issue here, Cole. This is an awkward segment on all levels--a rare bad interview from Dustin, the censor censoring "off" instead of "pissed," Cole's dumb line of questioning, Luna's awkward attack, and Luna's promo where she screams incoherently into a microphone.

I loved this. Goldust is pushed down the aisle in a wheelchair with a nurse & claims he's a paraplegic. He then claims he's a quadraplegic. This is hilarious. He ends up asking Michael Cole to cross his legs & remove his blanket. He gets turned on by his nurse using rubbing alcohol on his shoulders. Bizarre. Vader comes out & confronts him & wants to fight him. He attacks him, but the nurse pours rubbing alcohol in his eyes! It's Luna! This is weird, but I loved this angle. It felt old school with a mix of absurd Attitude Era booking.
