Last year, allegedly, Ted DiBiase, you drew #30, which would be advantageous...
"Allegedly"? Allegedly? No. Last year, little man, I drew #30!
Well some suspected there might've been a little chicanery, but certainly that wouldn't happen this year, with all the added security of World Wrestling Federation president Jack Tunney, you're not gonna be buying...
Security? You call that security? I call it downright gestapolism [sic]. I didn't even have the opportunity to draw my own number!
Wait a minute, Ted DiBiase, you asked Virgil to draw the number for you.
I didn't ask Virgil to draw the number!
Well, of course you did!
Virgil, did I ask you to draw the number! No! Shut up, don't say anything! You made a mistake, I...I can't believe this!
Wait a minute, what number did you draw?
None of your business what number I...
We're gonna find out sooner or later, where's the number? (DiBiase hands him the number) Oh, you couldn't have gotten a worse draw. This is #1—the worst number of the lot!
Let me tell you something, little man. It doesn't matter whether #1, #2, or #30. What it means is I'll be the first man in the ring, I'll be the last man in the ring, and it's a golden opportunity for me to show all you 9-to-5 nickel-and-dimers out there that I'm the greatest wrestling talent in the world. I'll be there to the end, and I'll win it!
