1995 house show: Nancy takes the mic to tell Stevie that, “in real professional wrestling, there’s men and there’s women. Real men and real women. You fall somewhere in between.” The audience thinks this is so funny, and the audio is so bad that I can’t make out what she says next, but it ends with her telling him to go. Stevie tries to get his boyfriend Raven to defend him, but Raven sends him away. Stevie stomps off yelling, “Your loss!” And indeed, Raven and Sandman lose to Cactus Jack and Tommy Dreamer.
