00:00Ladies and gentlemen, the purpose of this press conference is to announce just exactly
00:13whom of the top five contenders in the World Wrestling Federation will be challenging Ric
00:18Flair for the World Wrestling Federation title, just a second, at the Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis
00:24on Sunday, April the 5th.
00:27Before we get that announcement, I would like to introduce to you the current World Wrestling
00:33Federation champion, Ric Flair.
00:35Mr. Flair.
00:36Woo!
00:37Y'all tired of hearing that?
00:40Well, that's too bad, because when you hear that noise, you know that the World Wrestling
00:49Federation champion is on location.
00:51Not even like to know that, do you?
00:54But the bottom line is, I told everybody in the world of professional wrestling that
01:00I would win this, the most coveted trophy in this sport.
01:05And you know what?
01:06As I look around this room, I see five of the great WWF superstars, but five guys that
01:14were in the ring with me the night I won this.
01:17As a matter of fact, there were 29 men in the ring the night I won this.
01:23So whether they like it, or whether you like it, it's too bad, because everybody in the
01:29sport of professional wrestling knows that WrestleMania, the biggest extravaganza in
01:36sports today, looms on the horizon.
01:39And for Ric Flair, it means a defense, a title defense, of this, the World Wrestling Federation
01:46title.
01:47Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, The Undertaker, Randy Savage, Sid Justice, it doesn't make any difference
01:55to me.
01:56They were all in the ring the night I won this.
01:58So at WrestleMania, just as I walk in the champion, I'll walk out the champion.
02:04And that's the bottom line.
02:05Woo!
02:08Ah!
02:11Ric Flair!
02:12Ric Flair!
02:13Ric Flair!
02:15All right, folks, I'm sure.
02:18Wait a minute.
02:19Folks, I can hardly hear myself.
02:21Please.
02:22I'm sure this man can answer some of the questions for you.
02:26I would like to introduce at this time, the president.
02:30Questions later.
02:31Just give us a minute or two.
02:32The president of the World Wrestling Federation, the Honorable Jack Tunney.
02:36Mr. Tunney.
02:40Hold off on the questions, please.
02:42Thank you very much, Gene.
02:44With so many worthy challengers anxiously awaiting a shot at Ric Flair's World Wrestling
02:51Federation title, choosing an opponent has been especially difficult.
02:58At this table, up here, are five of the challengers.
03:05Roddy Piper, The Undertaker.
03:12On my left, Sid Justice, Macho Man Randy Savage, and Hulk Hogan.
03:26Very hard to choose one.
03:29However, after careful consideration, as well as examining the wishes of the public at large,
03:36I have reached a decision.
03:41Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed members of the press, challenging Ric Flair for the World
03:49Wrestling Federation title at the Hoosier Dome at WrestleMania 8 will be Hulk Hogan.
04:02Yes.
04:03Yes.
04:04Yes.
04:05Hulk Hogan.
04:06Hulk Hogan.
04:07Hulkamaniacs, I told you this thing would turn full circle, man.
04:12Now the battle lines are drawn.
04:14Ric Flair has the WWF title.
04:17The so-called Real World's Champion is going
04:20to find out what the power of Hulkamania is all about in WrestleMania 8 and what's
04:26he going to do, Ric Flair, when Hulk Hogan and his little maniacs run wild on you.
04:34Well, there you have it, folks.
04:36he's obviously elated over the results of his press conference,
04:40naming him number one challenger
04:42and giving him a shot at Ric Flair at WrestleMania VIII.
04:45Well, it better be the shot of a lifetime
04:48because Ric Flair is the World Wrestling Federation champion,
04:51and Hogan, you're not.
04:53While Hogan's happy nonetheless, however,
04:55some other individuals not too elated about that decision.
04:59Right now, here's some words from the Macho Man,
05:01Randy Savage, and Sid Justice.
05:04Unbelievable.
05:05What's your reaction to President Jack Tunney's announcement?
05:07Well, didn't like it.
05:09Bottom line, I wish it was the Macho Man, Randy Savage.
05:12That's me. I like me, yeah.
05:14But since I couldn't get it,
05:16I just want to let you know that, though,
05:17there's a piece of me that realizes
05:18that Hulk Hogan probably should have got the noddy anyway,
05:21being honest.
05:22Okay, so, Hulkster, good luck.
05:24Yeah, we've been competitive against each other in the past,
05:26but I guarantee you're a good friend and I respect you.
05:30Go against Ric Flair at WrestleMania and do the thing.
05:34Ooh, yeah, Hulkamania lives, dig it?
05:37One more question.
05:38What is it?
05:40Sid Justice, you are obviously not pleased with the new-
05:42Hey, yo, shut up!
05:44I want to say something.
05:45What happened at Royal Rumble, it was simple.
05:48I was the last man standing!
05:50I would be the world champion if it wasn't for you, Hogan,
05:54pulling me out from outside the ring.
05:57Now, what you did, Jack Tunney, was bogus!
06:01The most bogus act you've ever pulled off!
06:04I want to ask you, what is it?
06:06Is it because I'm not a big movie star like Hulk Hogan,
06:10the big immortal one himself?
06:13Is it because Sid Justice is the newcomer?
06:17Well, I want to tell you something, Hulk Hogan.
06:20You couldn't beat Ric Flair on your best day, but I can.
06:26But I can.
06:28Why?
06:29Because Sid Justice rules the world.
06:36Wait, wait a minute.
06:37Sid Justice, just one more question.
06:39You know, Brain, everybody comes up
06:41upon disappointments in their life,
06:42but you have to know how to handle them.
06:44Obviously, Sid Justice doesn't know how to handle them.
06:47Well, it shows you the competitiveness in the man,
06:49how bad he wants to be World Wrestling Federation champion.
06:52It's a mark of a winner, it really is.
06:56I'd like to differ with that, Brain.
06:58Go ahead, I'm sitting pretty, I don't care.
07:01Look at the macho man,
07:02there's a former champion right there.
07:03Look at how he's soft.
07:06Everybody looks at things differently.
07:09I say live and let live, I'm an easy going guy.
07:12You know, I give the guy credit,
07:13he did an outstanding job with the Royal Rumble,
07:15hung right in there till the very end, but you know.
07:19Now there's a good looking guy.
07:22Well groomed, always well dressed,
07:25smells great, got that arrogance.
07:27Know what's more important than that to me, Brain?
07:29What?
07:30He's got great wrestling techniques.
07:33He's got it all.
07:34He is a ring technician.
07:36He's quick, he's in shape,
07:38he knows what he's doing in there when the bell rings.
07:42Well, it's all set, Brain.
07:43I guess you can kiss the title goodbye.
07:45I would get all that first class garbage out of your mind
07:49in a hurry because come April 5th at the Hoosier Dome,
07:53it'll be the Hulkster five times world's champion.
07:57Well, you picked him to win the Royal Rumble,
07:59didn't do real good.
08:00I picked Flair to win the Royal Rumble.
08:02Look how I did.
08:03I picked Flair to beat Hulk at WrestleMania VIII.
08:07You do.
08:08Yes, I do.
08:09You know, it's easier to hold onto the belt than to win it.
08:11Would you care to put your money where your big mouth is?
08:14Flair is the dirtiest player in the game.
08:17Yeah, I know that.
08:18Everybody knows that.
08:19There's nothing wrong with that.
08:21He's a winner.
08:22He is the champion.
08:23You show a little respect or I'm gonna tell.
08:25The Hulk will not be denied.
08:29Oh, look at that.
08:32Agility, conditioning, charisma.
08:36This guy's got it all.
08:40And a brand new hairstyle.
08:42Catchy, I like that.
08:44What'd he say?
08:44I didn't hear it.
08:45Well, you weren't listening.
08:47That's why I'm asking you.
08:48Well, I'm not gonna tell you if you didn't hear it.
08:50It's your fault.
08:55The eyes and ears of the world will be focused
08:57on the Hoosier Dome, Indianapolis, Indiana.
08:59April 5th is the date.
09:06What an extravaganza that's gonna be.
09:08I think they're gonna call it the Flair Dome.
09:10They are not.
09:14Earlier on, we had a chance to talk with the model,
09:17Rick Montel.
09:19Showing off on the runways of the fashion world is great,
09:22but nothing compared to wrestling
09:25and all the success that surrounds me, arrogance.
09:30Understand he spends a lot of time on the French Riviera.
09:33Is that?
09:34Oh, yes.
09:34Oh, yes.
09:35He's always consulting with the fashion designers
09:37over there in Europe.
09:38They're asking his opinion on things.
09:40He's a very busy man.
09:42They want him to endorse different lines of men's clothing.
09:45Very much in demand.
09:48That right suplex finds the mark.
09:52Montel could have put this guy away a long time ago, Brent.
09:55You aren't kidding.
09:56This is a warmup for him.
10:00Look at the power.
10:02He's finished.
10:03He's finished.
10:04I knew he was finished a long time ago, Rick.
10:07Here it comes, that patented Boston Crab.
10:11Snap it, snap it.
10:11Come on, ref, ring the bell.
10:13Sit down on him, snap it.
10:16And what beautiful music, huh?
10:18Didn't even break a sweat.
10:21Here he comes, the model, Rick Montel.
10:27Obviously, she turned you down once again,
10:29didn't she, right?
10:30You're still on her case.
10:31Looks like she should be hung from a rope.
10:35Just like your face.
10:37Beautiful.
10:40Look at this.
10:42Fan thinks he's gonna really hip-hop Montel.
10:44Forget it, Hamminager.
10:47Right in the back of his head.
10:49And there it is, that beautiful patented Boston Crab.
10:53A long way to go here yet this week on Wrestling Challenge.
10:56We'll be back with a new foundation in just a moment.
11:07We've had this ovation coming up here
11:10for the new foundation,
11:12the anvil and the rocket.
11:24Owen Hunt says he wants the Beverly's.
11:27I don't think the new foundation
11:29wants anything to do with the Beverly's.
11:31What's that?
11:32Was that that new Hulk Hogan, that flashlight I just saw?
11:36I wasn't paying attention.
11:37Certainly looked like it.
11:38You never do.
11:42You can forget about what we talked about
11:44earlier on during the break.
11:46You're not getting any of my tickets for WrestleMania.
11:48Yes, you know, they expect, forget it.
11:49Over 70,000 people in the Flair Dome
11:52there in Indianapolis.
11:52You probably won't be one of them.
11:54The House of Rick, they're referring it to.
11:55They are nuts, but I need about 40 tickets
11:59for some elderly people, some shut-ins.
12:01I'd like to.
12:02Are you familiar with the word purchase?
12:04You know what that means?
12:05They don't have any money, they don't have any money, Montel.
12:06You do, you got plenty of it.
12:08If I can spend some of it, I'm gonna blow it on them.
12:10And then, oh, please.
12:15I've already used up my allotment, I'm sorry.
12:20Well, tough then.
12:23Nice reversal by The Rocket.
12:26You know, for the short time
12:27the New Foundation's been together,
12:28they're very impressive.
12:30You know why?
12:31They think alike.
12:32They've both been in the dungeon at Calgary.
12:35They know what it's all about.
12:37Watch the hair, Brad.
12:38Watch it!
12:39His brother right in there.
12:41The Rocket.
12:45I'll tell you, I think those headbands
12:46are too tight around Neidhart's head.
12:48He snaps all the time.
12:49Something wrong with the guy.
12:53Why do you think he left us?
12:55Because of you.
12:57Couldn't stand you anymore.
12:59Well, I don't blame him.
13:00What I heard is he couldn't be responsible
13:02for what he was about to do.
13:03He was about to kill you, that's what he was about to do.
13:04That's what I think, yes, but I'm glad he left.
13:07Look at this move!
13:08What a move!
13:12I'd like to see Flair try that.
13:15You know, he stole that move from me.
13:17I used to do that.
13:18Oh, please.
13:23Earlier on, we had a chance to talk with Bo and Blake,
13:26the Beverly brothers, and of course, the Genius.
13:30I remember, I remember, the attack at the end was new,
13:33and the Genius found great pleasure in his pain.
13:36I know the brothers Beverly
13:37will maim the new foundation.
13:39The anticipation is driving me insane.
13:42They won't have to drive him too far.
13:45What do you think, the man's losing it?
13:46The man has lost it, I got news for you.
13:51Well, Neidhart seems to be in better shape now.
13:54He seems like his knee's a lot better than it was before.
13:56His knee is 100%.
13:58It'll never be 100%.
13:59It is 100%.
14:00No, it isn't.
14:02I said no.
14:04What does that mean?
14:05It means no.
14:07No.
14:09Suplex coming up.
14:10Snap one at that.
14:12And you know what the good thing now
14:13about hanging around with Flair,
14:14the limousines in the first class?
14:16You don't have to tip.
14:17You don't, what do you mean you don't have to tip?
14:19You don't have to tip the people,
14:20the stooges that wait in the restaurants and stuff.
14:21You never tipped.
14:23I'll see how I was meant to be for the last 10 years.
14:25You haven't spent $10 in the last 10 years.
14:29Is it my fault everybody just wants me to come there
14:30and please pick up the tab?
14:32I offer.
14:34Sometimes the driver windows close.
14:35Heck, you can't make all the places.
14:38Yes!
14:40What an exciting tag team combination.
14:43What an exciting life it's going to be
14:45traveling with the World Wrestling Federation
14:47champion, Ric Flair.
14:50Until he gets tired of you.
14:51Well, until April 5th, anyway.
14:54Look at this, look at this, look at this, Monsoon.
14:56The Rockets.
14:57Whoa!
14:59Cape Canaveral look out.
15:03Let's go up to the lovely Mike McGurk.
15:05You need glasses.
15:07The New Foundation.
15:10I have glasses.
15:11You need new glasses.
15:14Let's go back and take a look at this sensation.
15:19Look at this move.
15:21That'll break your back.
15:23Flying elbow off the second rope.
15:25But watch this, from the top all the way across the ring.
15:29Wow.
15:32Big and exciting news coming out of the event center.
15:34Here we go.
15:37Well, folks, after hearing the comments
15:39at the top of the hour,
15:40no doubt the atmosphere is rather tense these days
15:43here in the WWF.
15:45Well, you are going to see clear evidence of that fact
15:47at the Boston Garden when live action returns
15:49Saturday night, February 29th.
15:52And in the main event, the immortal Hulk Hogan
15:55joins forces with the new Intercontinental title holder,
15:57Rowdy Roddy Piper.
15:58And together they battle the dreaded Undertaker
16:01and the new World Wrestling Federation champion, Ric Flair.
16:04Now, coming up this hour, we will hear from both sides
16:07of that very intense matchup.
16:10Right now, let's get more on another tag team battle
16:12on the way.
16:13Sergeant Slaughter and Hacksaw Jim Duggan,
16:15currently preparing to take on the natural disasters,
16:18earthquake and typhoon.
16:21Well, it looks like, baby, to get back to the LOD,
16:23we're gonna have to go through Slaughter and Duggan, man.
16:25Slaughter and Duggan.
16:28You've been thrown right in front of us.
16:30You've been thrown to the land.
16:32You've been thrown to the natural disasters
16:35and that spells a lot of pain for you.
16:37You guys don't have a chance.
16:40Always supposed to be afraid of these guys.
16:42Looks like the lost patrol to me.
16:44Commander Overdose and a big goof
16:46with a pulse of two by four.
16:47All you see is shaking our boots.
16:49The only shaking you should be doing is begging and praying
16:53that the day don't come too soon that we grab you
16:56and splash you and quake you.
16:58So get that in your thick skulls
17:00because when the quake and the typhoon come in that ring,
17:03it's not for playing around.
17:06Hey, folks, Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Sergeant Slaughter here
17:11and we're getting ready to face the natural disasters.
17:14And a lot of people wonder if we have second thoughts.
17:17Well, did the Marines have second thoughts
17:19when they hit the sands of Iwo Jima?
17:21Yeah, it may be dangerous.
17:23Yeah, it may be hairy, but I guarantee you one thing,
17:27when the dust settles, when the smoke clears,
17:29the stars and stripes will be flying high.
17:32Tough guy.
17:33That's exactly right, Hacksaw.
17:35Natural disasters, typhoon, earthquake,
17:38you might be over 400 pounds,
17:41but when you're laying on your back,
17:43you're the same size as everybody else.
17:45And Jimmy Hart, if you get in our way,
17:47we got the equalizer.
17:49USA!
17:50USA.
17:52The patriotic duo ready to withstand some rough weather.
17:55They meet up with the natural disasters
17:57Saturday night, February 29th.
17:59But it all starts at 8 p.m. at the Boston Garden.
18:02♪♪
18:06BFD, Bodybuilding Lifestyles Magazine
18:09is now available everywhere.
18:10On the cover, of course, the major guns of Eddie Robinson,
18:14but take a look inside the Flexing Dutchman,
18:18Barry DeMay in How to Stay Fit.
18:20You need to read that, Brady.
18:22I'm at the Flexing Dutchman.
18:24But you need to get fit, I know that.
18:26I'm as fit as I'm gonna get.
18:28I know how to get to the bank.
18:30I know how to deposit that check.
18:32Yeah.
18:34Well, the first appearance we're seeing of Marty Jannetty
18:36since that rear window incident.
18:40Boy, did he go through that window.
18:42Lost his footing, stumbled.
18:43Lost his footing?
18:46He was propelled through there by his former partner,
18:49Shawn Michaels.
18:50And he got kicked in the face by Michaels.
18:52Michaels said something to him.
18:53He jumped up and thought he was Clark Kent.
18:55He was gonna bail out that window.
18:58Excuse me.
19:00Risked his own health just to get away from Shawn Michaels,
19:04who was the captain of the Rockers.
19:05You know, led the team.
19:06He was not the captain.
19:07There never was a captain of that team.
19:08Michaels told me he was a dual effort.
19:11Michaels told me he was the captain.
19:12I'll never be a dual effort again.
19:15I'll tell you, if I was to come back into managing,
19:19he's the kind of a guy-
19:20I wish you would.
19:21No, I can't.
19:22I can't leave you here alone.
19:23Oh, boy, I wish you would.
19:25Now, you'll goof everything up if I leave.
19:26Of course, come April 5th,
19:27you could be out of a job altogether.
19:29What do you mean?
19:30Oh, no, no, don't.
19:32You think for one minute, if the Hulkster beats Flair,
19:35that you're still gonna have a job?
19:37Of course.
19:39You wish.
19:43Look at this tremendous athlete.
19:44To the floor!
19:45Whoa!
19:46Oh!
19:46Elevator down.
19:49Earlier on, we had a chance to poke at his superstar.
19:52Here he is, Marty Jannetty.
19:55You know, over the years,
19:57I've watched you step on a lot of toes, Shawn Michaels,
19:59but the one toe you don't step on
20:01is the one that'll end up in your backside.
20:03You get my point?
20:04I'm coming to kick your butt.
20:07Well, there's a fair warning.
20:09Boy, oh, boy, that's gonna be a battle,
20:11I'll tell you that.
20:13I'll buy a ticket for that.
20:14Both the same size, both the same speed.
20:17I have to give a little bit of size to Shawn Michaels.
20:20He's a little quicker, and he's a lot smarter,
20:22I can tell, because he got rid of this guy.
20:24I hope he said to myself,
20:26I said, self, you know,
20:28if the Rockers were to split,
20:30it'd be Jannetty's fault, he would've caused it,
20:32because Michaels never needed him.
20:33Why don't you stop?
20:36Just a broadcast journalist's observation.
20:40One lie upon the other.
20:42You know, the money I could,
20:43I mean, the money I could invest for Michaels.
20:46The money you can rip off this youngster, right?
20:49I wasn't so busy managing the money of Ric Flair.
20:52A few things to talk to Flair about, too.
20:54What?
20:54I don't think he realizes exactly what you're doing.
20:57Oh, don't you mean what am I doing?
20:58I'm gonna give him a call later on this week,
21:00and see if I can set up a meeting with him.
21:03Oh, don't concern yourself.
21:06You know, those 40 tickets, I need to skip it.
21:08I don't need them anymore, pal.
21:09I don't need them.
21:09Nah.
21:11I'll get them for those old people some way.
21:13I'll sneak them in at the Flair Diner.
21:17He's not a friend of mine,
21:18but I'm not opposed to enlightening someone
21:20when they need to be enlightened.
21:22No, you just want to cause trouble.
21:23You want to upset his thinking before this match,
21:25April 5th, and you want to get me in trouble.
21:28There isn't, Brain, a doubt in my mind
21:31that come April 5th,
21:32the Hulkster will walk out of the Hoosier Dome
21:36the WWF Champion.
21:38Well, you had no doubt in your mind
21:40that you thought Flair was going to lose it
21:42at the Royal Rumble, and he didn't.
21:44Your predictions stink.
21:46He didn't have it to lose at the Royal Rumble.
21:48He had it to win.
21:49Nobody had it to lose.
21:50Don't try to confuse me.
21:51I don't know what the heck I'm saying.
21:54I'm not an idiot.
21:56Very impressive singular display here by Marty Jannetty.
22:00Tell me that name is Shawn Michaels,
22:02and I'm going to kick your butt.
22:04Fair warning indeed to Shawn Michaels.
22:06Let's go back and take a look.
22:07Whoa. Right to the floor from the top rope.
22:12Look at this move.
22:14That'll put the lights out for you.
22:17Events center, coming up.
22:22Welcome back.
22:23I'm sure all you folks have heard the fantastic news.
22:26In just one week, Saturday night's main event will return.
22:29It's all happening next Saturday evening,
22:31February 8th, right here on Fox,
22:34and it all starts at 9 p.m.
22:36Now, four of the superstars involved
22:38in that incredible event
22:39will be at the Boston Garden Saturday night, February 29th,
22:43when Hulk Hogan teams up
22:44with the Intercontinental title holder, Roddy Roddy Piper,
22:47and together they face The Undertaker
22:49and the New World Wrestling Federation champion,
22:51Ric Flair.
22:54Once again, the theme is Roddy Piper,
22:57the new Intercontinental champion,
22:59and Hulk Hogan,
23:01the would-be World Wrestling Federation champion.
23:04What's the matter, Hulk?
23:05No more title?
23:07You're on a bummer now, pal.
23:09Well, look at it like this.
23:10In this match, Piper, you're mine,
23:13and Hogan, just to ensure the fact
23:16that nothing goes wrong at WrestleMania,
23:18you, my friend, get a deal with this.
23:22Hogan, it's a proven fact that you're beatable.
23:29Now, we find out if you're immortal.
23:38You know, it's a great day for the Hulkamaniacs.
23:41Everybody knows I'm gonna face Ric Flair
23:43at WrestleMania, brothers, but you know something?
23:46I want Piper to guarantee me
23:48he's gonna help me bust up Flair and The Undertaker
23:50because as far as I'm concerned,
23:52this is the man that should be the WWF champion
23:55after we saw him in the Royal Rumble,
23:57and once we wipe these two out, I want to wrestle you
24:00because I'll have the WWF title after WrestleMania.
24:03A man that speaks his mind here.
24:07You need a couple of men to go against a 6'7",
24:13a blonde bombshell that will do anything, they'll beat.
24:17You need a couple of guys that've been around
24:20and will claw and dig and hit and do what it takes.
24:25We've been doing that for years, so they put us together.
24:29The only time, the first time, and then we'll square it up.
24:34But now, showdown, you bet.
24:36We ain't even saddled our pony yet.
24:39The Hulkster and the Hot Scott
24:40tangle with The Undertaker and Ric Flair,
24:42Saturday night, February 29th, at The Garden.
24:45♪♪
24:50-♪♪
24:53The Holy Rangers.
24:54Holy mackerel.
24:56Put the wagons in a circle, they're attacking.
24:59I'm getting out of here.
25:00Take a good look at a real Native American.
25:03It's Patrona.
25:05Oh, this guy put together, huh?
25:07Holy mackerel.
25:09And his opponent,
25:11weighing in at 240 pounds,
25:13now that's real Native American Indian right there.
25:16Here is the Brooklyn Roller.
25:19As opposed to this kid right here.
25:21-♪♪
25:26What an opportunity for tonight.
25:27Why are the people doing this?
25:29That's the Tomahawk Chopper.
25:30Don't do that.
25:31Sometimes it goes this way and that way inside.
25:34All kinds of ways.
25:35You never know which way they're going to go.
25:37Put another hand on me, I'm asking you to get out of here.
25:39Well, you asked me, I'm just showing you.
25:41Knock it off.
25:43That's a Tomahawk Chopper.
25:45You got to be familiar with that.
25:46I don't know what it is.
25:47I don't want to see one or feel one.
25:49These people here certainly know what it is.
25:53Look at him jumping.
25:55Beautiful hip lock out of there.
25:59You know, before the match,
26:00they were interviewing him about his match with the Bulls.
26:02You know what he said?
26:04Him big tough player.
26:05Will you stop?
26:06He doesn't talk like that at all.
26:08Very well educated, I might add.
26:11I didn't say he did, I said the man interviewed him.
26:12Well, he doesn't talk like that.
26:13I didn't say he did.
26:15You were intimating that.
26:19Maybe the brawler talks like that.
26:21I can't understand the brawler.
26:25Woo!
26:26A little war chant for you.
26:29He's got a temper.
26:32And a lousy haircut.
26:36That's a red...
26:37What would you call that, a red mohawk?
26:39He's not a mohawk.
26:40You know what it symbolizes?
26:42That's the blood of all the Native American tribes
26:45of North America, I believe.
26:47No, I think he used to work at a paint and body shop in Oakland.
26:50Well, it's just a guess.
26:52Woo!
26:56Oh, what a drop right on top of the cranium by Tatanka.
27:01What a future this guy's got here in the WWF.
27:06With a thumb right to the eye.
27:08Come on, brawler, stay on him now.
27:10Slow down anybody.
27:12Probably if he stuck that dirty sweatshirt in his face,
27:14he could probably smother him.
27:16Wouldn't hurt, wouldn't hurt.
27:17Give it a try.
27:18It's worth a shot.
27:23You know, we're always looking for heroes today, modern-day heroes.
27:26Oh, thank you.
27:27Not you, him.
27:29Talking about Tatanka.
27:31A role model for the youngsters.
27:33Do you know what Tatanka means?
27:35What does it mean?
27:36I'm afraid to ask you.
27:37I know what it means.
27:38What in your warped mind do you think it means?
27:41I'm not telling you now.
27:43Forget it.
27:45Nice block to the right and the right of his arm.
27:50He's getting wound up now into that war dance.
27:57Oh, what a shot.
27:59How?
28:03Fireman's carry pick-up.
28:05Where's he going with it from here?
28:07Elevator down.
28:08Forget about it.
28:09It's over.
28:11Looks like you guys threw a canoe off his back.
28:16Was that a flaming arrow just went by?
28:19What an impressive victory for this young man, Tatanka.
28:25He's got a future here in the WWF.
28:31Here we go.
28:32He's got a brawler up on his back.
28:34Just dancing like an old canoe.
28:37Well, Tatanka obviously headed for WrestleMania 8 paddling
28:40down, perhaps, Fall Creek.
28:42Speaking of that, let's take you back now to some great
28:44moments from past WrestleManias.
28:48How about getting your foot off my shoulder?
28:51There's no help for T.A.!
29:00Let's do one for the homeland.
29:01Let's hear it for Mother Russia.
29:03Here we go.
29:09Now she's hoisted up on his shoulder with the gold.
29:13And the Hulksters say this is what it's all about.
29:18If you want to be part of WrestleMania 8 from the
29:20Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis, Indiana, please call the
29:23Hoosier Dome box office or Ticketmaster and listen to this.
29:27Also, T.C.A. has put together some very exclusive
29:30WrestleMania 8 travel packages.
29:33For that information, call 1-800-622-0305.
29:39Don't you dare miss WrestleMania 8.
29:44Get there any way you can.
29:45Be one of the 70,000 strong to be in WrestleMania 8, where
29:50history will indeed be made because the Hulkster will
29:52become five times holder of the WWF title.
29:56Don't lead these people down a path where it's not going to happen.
30:01Don't give them false hope.
30:04Hogan is not going to retain.
30:06I mean, he's not going to win back.
30:09You got me so confused now.
30:10Will you stop it?
30:12You'll be more confused when you're looking for a job.
30:14I don't want to think that way.
30:16Flair is going to walk into that ring as a World Wrestling
30:19Federation champion.
30:20That's the way he's going to leave that ring.
30:22He's never been beaten since entering the
30:26World Wrestling Federation.
30:27Has he?
30:28Has he?
30:29Has he?
30:29Has he?
30:30Has he?
30:32Now, you know it.
30:33Humanoids know it.
30:35Anybody can be beaten, Bray.
30:37Any given night.
30:39What's the snake doing now?
30:40What is Jake the Snake doing now?
30:45He doesn't have to do anything.
30:46He's already done enough.
30:49Just slithering around in there, isn't he?
30:51Aside from Flair, this guy's probably the most hated guy
30:54here in the World Wrestling Federation.
30:57He's not well-liked, but he doesn't care.
31:01People liking you are never going to help you in life.
31:04What helps you in life is if you have strength in yourself.
31:08You know how you feel about yourself.
31:10And know how to take people's money away from you.
31:13And know how to invest people's money for them, like I do.
31:16Happen to be a mathematical wizard, you know.
31:20Give me 500 bucks, and in a month,
31:22I'll give you 1,000 back.
31:23I guarantee it.
31:30What do you think, I just rip you off?
31:32Absolutely.
31:34You don't want to make any money.
31:38You get 500 from enough guys, we'd never see you again.
31:41It'd be history.
31:43What am I, you think I'm some kind of a flim-flam guy?
31:45Yeah, you got it.
31:47The flim-flam man.
31:52Come on, back it up, back it up.
31:53Making a mistake.
31:54Don't ever give Jake that up.
31:56Oh, wow.
31:58Hip-hopped him right over the top rope.
32:01See, he shouldn't have given Jake a break.
32:06Came right down on that kicking area.
32:09Short rib area in the back there.
32:13Could have been worse, though.
32:14What an education this youngster's getting.
32:16Could have been mean.
32:19So do you think they benefit from the education?
32:22Of course they do.
32:22Do you think next time he gets in the ring,
32:24he's going to be a little more careful doing something?
32:26I don't know if they're that bright.
32:29It takes a lot of matches.
32:30It takes a lot of years of experience
32:32to start thinking right.
32:37Oh, offense here.
32:41I can't help it, he says.
32:42That guy's a dummy.
32:45I'm going to put him away.
32:46Boom.
32:49Crack him like an egg.
32:50Kind of final, wasn't it?
32:52One, two, three.
32:54You got it, Jake.
32:55Put a count of the 300.
32:57Trust me.
33:01No one will ever trust you again, Jake.
33:03I trust him.
33:05I don't know, he's a...
33:09But then again, I, uh...
33:11Well, I...
33:13You know, he's a team...
33:14Oh, will you be quiet?
33:16We'll be back with a hitman in a moment.
33:19You're being serious.
33:20Wouldn't you say that?
33:21On the cover.
33:23More importantly, inside that edition
33:25and all editions of the WWF magazine
33:28are, of course, the WWF merchandise catalogs.
33:32All the stuff you'd ever want to get from the WWF,
33:35including those new denim WWF hats, Frank.
33:38Look at the cover.
33:39Have you seen them?
33:40No, I don't know where...
33:41I didn't take it.
33:42Forget about it.
33:43Why, is there one missing?
33:47That is a boy.
33:48Weighing in at 230 pounds,
33:51here is...
33:52Pedro!
33:56Gonna be a good matchup here.
33:58Oh, there's old Sniffles' heart.
34:01Be interesting to see what kind of shape the hitman's in.
34:04Had the Sniffles went out there gallant and courageous.
34:08Oh, looks like he dropped a little weight.
34:09Defending the Intercontinental title
34:12against doctor's advice, gallant and brave.
34:15And it cost him the title because he's dumb.
34:18He could have said he was sick.
34:19What are you mumbling about?
34:21He could have got a note from the doctor
34:23when he lost his title to the Mountie.
34:26And he just got a note from the doctor
34:27and showed that he had a fever.
34:29Do you know why he went in the ring against the Mountie?
34:32Do you have a clue?
34:33Stupid.
34:34Stupid.
34:35Okay, you tell me.
34:38He was under the weather,
34:39but he thought it was more important
34:40that he goes out there in front of his public
34:44who paid their hard-earned dollars to see him
34:47and do his thing.
34:49Well, did it work?
34:50What happened?
34:51He lost the match.
34:52He lost the title.
34:53And the Humanoids are back on their nine-to-five job
34:55pushing a broom.
34:56Big deal.
35:03He's in shape, though.
35:05He dropped about 10 pounds.
35:09That might help him.
35:10Of course, the Mounties lost a lot more than that
35:12since losing his title to the hot rod,
35:15Rowdy Rowdy Piper.
35:16Early on, we had a chance to talk with the hitman.
35:19Now I feel great.
35:22Piper, I want a shot at you.
35:25And Mountie, you're not gonna stop me from getting it.
35:30I don't blame him.
35:32If there was a return clause in the contract
35:34for the Mountie, should he lose the match,
35:37he'll get a crack at the title once again.
35:39And I think it's only rightly so
35:41that a former champion should be given an opportunity
35:44to get his title back.
35:45I think it should be up to the champion.
35:46He should make that decision.
35:47Well, now that I'm affiliated
35:49with the World Wrestling Federation champion,
35:51I have to start thinking that way.
35:52You have to think like a champion.
35:53Temporarily, you are.
35:55That's your opinion.
35:56It doesn't mean anything, though.
35:57April 5th is coming.
36:00Four days after April Fool's Day.
36:01Boy, is Hogan gonna be a fool.
36:08Hitman looks like he hasn't lost a thing
36:10except maybe eight or ten pounds
36:12from his bout with influenza,
36:15which is crippling a lot of the country right now.
36:19Surprised it hasn't got you yet.
36:22If I were to get me, I get enough sleep.
36:24I relax.
36:25I don't beat myself to death
36:28like some people do.
36:32I knew this would be a good matchup.
36:36I'll tell you, when you go first class with Flair,
36:39you just feel better.
36:40You live better.
36:41Life looks at you differently.
36:43You know, everybody in their life
36:45should go first class once.
36:46All the time.
36:47Not everybody.
36:48They'd be jammed.
36:49I just like it the way it is now.
36:50Flair perfecting me up there.
36:58And you know something?
37:00You know something?
37:01When you're on those airplanes
37:02and you want something
37:03instead of ringing the bell,
37:04you can just whistle real loud.
37:05You do not.
37:06I do.
37:07Maybe they get down that aisle quick.
37:08You think you're the only guy
37:09that ever traveled first class in his life.
37:11No, but they expect you to do that.
37:13They like it.
37:14They do not.
37:15They do.
37:17That's not even good manners.
37:19Of course, you wouldn't know anything about that.
37:22Nice inverted atomic drop by the Hitman.
37:26You going for that sharpshooter?
37:28Looked like he was,
37:29but he still might be.
37:32Well, I don't think he can slap it on the Mountie.
37:34Because in that position there,
37:36right now the Mountie could reverse that shock stick
37:39and hit him right in the kidney area with it.
37:41Pure speculation.
37:44What isn't?
37:45Everything.
37:48Back on the winning draft, the Hitman.
37:54He still looks a little unhappy
37:56about not having that gold around his waist.
37:58If he didn't care about the human eyes,
38:00he'd still be champion.
38:02Or maybe not.
38:03Maybe not.
38:05About to invade the World Wrestling Federation,
38:07newcomer Papa Shango.
38:10Who?
38:13Ibo.
38:16The time has come.
38:22By thy power, master of the crossroads,
38:26this is a time of blood, Ibo.
38:30It is I,
38:33Papa Shango.
38:45I'd say, Papa Shango, watch out for this guy.
38:48Make friends with him, quick.
38:51He'll put a spell on you, Monsoon,
38:52and you'll be hanging around somebody's neck
38:54on a string of beads.
38:56Talk about people that can do voodoo.
38:58Take a look leading the way down there.
39:00The Sensational One,
39:02she could put a spell on you,
39:04and probably a few other things.
39:07She's just gorgeous.
39:09She is, huh?
39:10She's sensational, you know.
39:12She gets prettier every week.
39:14She is.
39:15She gets prettier every week.
39:17I suggest you see her oculus.
39:19Nothing wrong with my back.
39:23And there he is.
39:25Has this guy got class?
39:27Halloween is over, Sherry.
39:28Right on the button.
39:31They're just jealous.
39:34They're just jealous.
39:36Oh, look at how she rips those pants
39:38right off him.
39:40You can tell she's done that before.
39:42Does it every time he goes to the ring.
39:45You know, why don't you?
39:46That's Velcro.
39:47It's only the best money can buy.
39:49You understand she has that done
39:50to some of her outfits.
39:52Well, you know, she's in a hurry sometimes.
39:54Making one plane to the next.
39:56Coast to coast and border to border.
39:58You know.
39:59What an asset she is to the Million Dollar Man.
40:01You are kidding.
40:02What?
40:03What?
40:04What did you say?
40:05Every match of his is like a handicap match.
40:08You have to worry about him.
40:09You have to worry about her.
40:10So what?
40:11So what?
40:12He's a winner.
40:13He's a Million Dollar Champion.
40:15This guy's gonna have to keep his eyes open
40:17talking about El Matador.
40:20Tibiasi, don't concern yourself where I come from
40:24and you will never destroy my dignity.
40:27Your only concern should be how far I've come
40:30and where I'm going.
40:31You will never see me take any steps back.
40:34Ole!
40:36Oh, you can bet on that.
40:37All of the derogatory statements made
40:39by the Million Dollar Man against
40:41Tito Santana and his heritage.
40:43Sooner or later, he's gonna have to pay for that.
40:45Well, when he was kicking Virgil's backside,
40:49you tell me why El Matador had to run to the ring
40:52and save his buddy Virgil.
40:54He didn't have to.
40:55That's right.
40:56But that was the thing to do.
40:57If Tito stayed where he belongs,
40:59he wouldn't be in the trouble he's in now.
41:01Because the Million Dollar Man
41:02is gonna make a fool out of El Matador
41:04and he's gonna wipe the mat with him.
41:06Highly unlikely.
41:08Million Dollar Man has a prefabricated championship
41:12Million Dollar Belt.
41:13Tito Santana had all kinds of gold,
41:16legitimate gold around his waist.
41:18All right, money buys it all.
41:20He was going to have a bullfight last week
41:22and they canceled it.
41:24Well, the guy that wears the back end of the suit
41:26couldn't show up.
41:27Will you be serious?
41:30Oh, nice power slam by DiBiase.
41:32DiBiase's style.
41:34They should've got Sherry.
41:35She could've worn a back end of it.
41:37Hey, she has more dignity than that, too.
41:39She has more...
41:40Oh, yeah, more...
41:42I guess that anybody could want to fit in the suit.
41:44That doesn't...
41:45That doesn't...
41:46You don't talk about her that way.
41:47Oh, there it is.
41:48The Million Dollar Dream slapped on
41:50as we look over the shoulder of Sherry.
41:53Sherry.
41:55Sensational Sherry.
41:57You know, lately she's been kind of distant.
41:59I don't know.
42:00I mean, she's...
42:01I see her sometimes and say,
42:02hey, sensational, how you doing?
42:03And she's kind of off in another world.
42:05Yeah, she's like that a lot of the time.
42:0740,000 and climbing.
42:11Look at that.
42:12Where did that money come from now?
42:13I missed that.
42:15I'll tell you where it came from.
42:16She pulled out of one of those
42:17lovely designer gloves she wears.
42:19Oh, please.
42:21Look at this.
42:23Unsanitary indeed.
42:25Boy, you bet.
42:26You don't know where that mustache has been.
42:28Stuffed it right back down.
42:30Oh, give me a break.
