SCOTT “THE STUD” HALL (W/SIR OLIVER HUMPERDINK) VS. DENNY BROWN: Hall squares off with the veteran Brown this week. As SOH cheers him on, Hall pins Brown after a razor’s edge. After the bout, we cut to Boni in the interview area…
BONI: I’m here with Sir Oliver Humperdink and a member of the House of Humperdink, Scott “the Stud” Hall…
HALL: I’m glad to hear you get my name right, Boni! Of course, it’s only natural for a sexy broad such as yourself to call me “the Stud”! I’m sure that you were impressed with me taking that jabroni up in the ring to school, weren’t you?

I wanna tell Cowboy Bill, hey, Mr. President, the UWA needs me on that show! I wanna a top opponent or I’m not gonna show! No jabronis, do you hear me?
SOH: I told you last week that I had big plans for Martel! I promised him big things! From now on, you call him “the Model” Rick Martel! I have used my connections to procure contracts for Rick in the field of modeling! Right now, I want the world to see the Model’s first commercial! Soon, this will be seen on TV stations worldwide!
BONI: OK, let’s take a look…
VTR:
We see Rick Martel running along the beach.
NARRATOR (v/o): For a renaissance man and a finely tuned athlete, it takes more than self confidence to succeed! You need something more than confidence! You need ...ARROGANCE!
We see Martel, dressed in a towel in a steamy bathroom. He picks up a decanter of cologne and splashes a few handfulls on his neck, chest, and face.
NARRATOR: ARROGANCE! The exciting, invigorating scent for today’s sexy and successful man!
We see Martel, now dressed in a tuxedo climbing into the back seat of a limo where a beautiful woman in a slinky evening gown is waiting. The woman greets Martel with a kiss.
MARTEL: Look what Arrogance does for me! Shouldn’t you try it?
ANNOUNCER: Arrogance...COMING SOON!
HALL: Hey, yo, I want some of that cologne, boss!
SOH: Don’t worry, Stud! The Model can get it for you wholesale!

ROTUNDA: Look, I’ve had it with Barbie Doll bimbos who talk too much! Hold the microphone and listen to me!
Item One: While my resume says otherwise-my great career at the prestigious Syracuse University, for instance- I have never been a team player! After the events of HOG WILD, I have dissolved the Organization! I am no longer part of any club, team, stable, army, or fraternity! I stand on my own! That’s the way I like it and that’s how it’s going to be! I wish Mr. Orton, Mr. Martel, Mr. Muraco, and yes, Scotty the Body, well in their future endeavors!
Item Two: You will note the lack of well wishes for the current World Champion and Missy Hyatt! That is because I am challenging Steve Williams to a Title match at the upcoming Memphis Mayhem TV special here on TNT! Steve, do you have the intestinal fortitude to accept?
Item Three: Any personal and/or professional relationship I had with Missy Hyatt has come to an end! It was fun while it lasted, Missy, but it’s all over!
Any questions?
