VADER

JR: Ladies and Gentlemen, would you please welcome the new WWF Intercontinental Champion, VADER!!!!

(VADER comes down the aisle with Jim Cornette and the I.C. title draped over his shoulder)

JR: Mr. Cornette, Wrestlemania IV was a good night for you and VADER as you captured the I.C. Gold, but this will only lead to VADER being on the WWF's most wanted list!

Cornette: How many times have I said, "VADER is the best in the WWF," we now this title proves it!! VADER beat the Undertaker at his own game, and he is ready to live his life as Champion!!

VADER: Well, what about the many wrestlers who have already made a challenge for this title? Blizzard has made a challenge, Jobo has challenged VADER, Derrick Stardom will most likely want a shot, and then there is the Bad Guy Razor Ramon...

Cornette: ....hold it right there Ross!! Ramon, I don't know what the heck you were try'n to prove at Wrestlemania, but you didn't imprese me or VADER. Heck, your little attack didn't even end up to well now did it?? You want a match with the I.C. Champion?? You got it, but it will be a NON-TITLE MATCH!!! Why you ask?? Because I know you want the gold. Take it or leave it. As for the others in the WWF, get in line!! Snowflake, you want a shot?? You got it!! This rookie, JoBo, he can have a shot!! Jeff Jarrett!! You want a shot, the shot you've wanted ever since you came to the WWF, you got it!!!

VADER: VADER is the champ!! VADER is the MAN!!!

Cornette: Get ready WWF for the era of VADER!!!

JR: Thank you Mr. Cornette and VADER!!

WILD CHYLDE DIBIASE AND ROXANNE

Wild Chylde is in the Raw-buttal Area. She is standing next to Roxanne.

Wild Chylde: Everybody is wondering what I'm going to do about these matches that Shi had. The ones that were signed before I got the title. I plan to honor them, but not this week. I'll take on Roxanne NEXT week. And after that, I'll take on Valetia Von Strahden. I think I need at least a week to rest after WrestleMania!

Roxanne: You know, if it would have been Shi tonight... that I would face, it wouldn't be so bad. Shi won the title back in January. She had a great reign... a LOT of title defenses. It wouldn't have been so bad. But you just won the title LAST NIGHT! You've got to enjoy the title! Not that I'm going to win... not that you're going to lose! But you need to rest... and enjoy it for a little more then a DAY! Next week? I'll see you in the ring!

Wild Chylde: Deal.
