Taped comments from Magnificent Muracco:
“WELLLL WELLL WELLL, after BEATING Magnum Scott Hall alllll the way in California, what does he do? He wins the Southern title then runs away from the Magnificent Muracco alllll they way across the country to not St. Louis . . . . not Houston . . .. not even Chicago or New York City . . . . but where, oh where is as far away from California as you can go?
“FLORIDA. Look it up on this map! (Muracco produces a Rand McNally Road Atlas, shows the US map and puts one finger on California. And the other on Florida) Scott Hall as FAR AWAY FROM CALIFORNIA AS POSSIBLE!
“Magnum Scott Hall, do you really think you could hide from me? You really think you could run? You don’t think the Golden Eye of Kanaloa couldn’t see where you were running to?
“And don’t think I don’t see you, trying to get over with these Florida rednecks and hillbillies but you can only hide behind mobile homes, pickup trucks and fire-ant mounds for so long!
“The bottom line, MAGNUM, is you owe the Magnificent One a match for that Southern title! In San Francisco, I beat you, and then you tricked me to win that battle royale! But once you and me step into the ring in Florida, the games are OVER, Brah! I’m coming to Florida and looking for you!

THE VICTORIOUS SOUTHERN CHAMPION MAGNUM SCOTT HALL joins Eric and Joel!
Joel: “A big win over a seasoned First veteran Scott, but viewers just heard Magnificent Muracco remind fans he beat you in San Francisco, and you owe him as title match. Any response?
Hall: “First off let me tell everyone out there what an honor it is to represent Championship Wrestling from Florida as the new Southern heavyweight Champion and I am here to say Magnum is here to take on ANY AND ALL CHALLENGERS.
“That includes YOU Magnificent Muracco. I’m not running and hiding ANYWHERE. I’m right here on national TV, right here with Eric Bischoff, Joel watts and all these great Florida fans! I know you beat me, 1-2-3 in the ring, but the bottom line is this, yo: I’m holding the Southern title belt, and you’re on the outside, LOOKING IN! So, instead of sending videos whining about why you’re not champion, why not buy an airline ticket yourself, come to Florida, and see what it’s all about? I’m not running away from ANYONE, brau, here I am and I’ll be waiting Magnificent Muracco, and am looking forward to beating you and shutting your big mouth once and for all, and proving to all these great Florida fans who is the Southern champion!
