(Rowdy Roddy Piper comes down the aisle, reaching out and hitting a couple of the fans hands.... but he looks like a man with a mission. He climbs up into the ring and Bam Bam rolls in and joins him. He, Bam Bam and Bundy confer with each other for a few moments. Then Piper takes the mic from the announcer.)
Piper: I SMELL SOMETHIN' FISHY!! (sniffs at the air.) Or is that YOU Pettingill? This is the WORLD TITLE MATCH on the BIGGEST card of the year! And as PRESIDENT of the WWF, it's my job to make sure these folks get a fair and decent match! Now I ain't gonna kick all of your hides out of here, but I'm limiting WHO'S gonna be down here.
(Bam Bam gets back out of the ring.)
Piper: Mr. Chan... you can stay. Welcome... to WRESTLEMANIA!
Jackie Chan: Thank you very much, Mr. Piper.
(Jackie Chan heads over to the celebrity table near ringside. He gives a thumbs up to the others.)
Piper: Now... the two sides of you. You can have TWO other people outside the ring. You can pick WHO! And don't give me any of this crap like....'He can't do that'... because BABY...I CAN!!! I'm the WWF President! And EMPIRE... I DO IT... BECAUSE I CAN!!!
(Gilbert comes up to the side of the ring to complain to Piper.)
Piper: (rushes at him like he's nuts!) BOOOO!!!!!!
(Gilbert dives out of the way! Piper laughs.)
Piper: Now make up your minds... and let's get READY TO RUMBLE!
(The fans cheer for Piper! He tosses the mic back to the announcer, pats Bundy on the shoulder, gives a thumbs up to Bam Bam... and sits down at Jackie Chan's table.)
Terry Taylor heads back to the dressing room area with Power and Glory. Todd and Eddie stay at ringside. They don't look happy about this. The Sensei and Shawn Michaels stay on the other side. The others head back after hitting high-fives with the champion.
Shawn and Gilbert stare daggers at each other from across the ring. Once Bundy sees that the two sides are now 'Piper-legal', he calls for the bell.
The two wrestlers start off slowly. They walk circles around each other. Diesel is hanging back a bit, waiting for the Giant. The Giant also hangs back a bit. Neither man wanting to commit yet.
Finally... THE TWO TITANS LOCK UP IN A TEST OF STRENGTH!!! The fans ALL get up out of their seat to witness this!
JR: The Giant has the height advantage here! He can use that to his credit!
They jockey for position and leverage... neither man giving a quarter or asking! Diesel begins to drive the Giant back slightly... but the Giant stops. He lets out a mighty yell and starts to drive back the champion!!! The fans begin stomping their feet slowly at first...working their way up to rapid stomps, sounding almost like an earthquake!!!!
Diesel feeds off the energy and stops the Giant from pushing him back!! He drives forward and the two find themselves LOCKED in the center of the ring. Both let out yells! The adrenaline pumps!!! Then... THE GIANT BEGINS TO GET THE UPPERHAND!!! Diesel's hands bend back slightly and his knees bend!!! The Giant roars out triumphantly as he begins to push down!!!!
Shawn gets a DIESEL! DIESEL! DIESEL! chant started! Jackie Chan at ringside drives the fans on! The Giant continues to add pressure! Diesel is shoved down to one knee!!!
Gilbert and Todd look at each other.. and chuckle. The Giant's muscles ripple from the strain! Diesel face has a look of determination. He looks up at the Giant.... AND YELLS OUT!!! The Giant's face turns to one of suprise!!!
Diesel begins to POWER BACK UP!!! He starts to rise up, straightening out his wrists again!! HE'S BACK UP TO FULL HEIGHT!!! THE ARENA IS GOING MAD!!!!
Big Daddy Cool and the Giant CONTINUE their struggle! They've been at it for a LONG TIME!!!! Diesel YELLS OUT AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS FEEDING OFF THE POWER OF THE FANS!!! HE BREAKS THE GIANT DOWN!!! DIESEL WINS THE TEST OF STRENGTH!!!!
JR: OH! This match already... is SO PHYSICAL! SO POWERFUL!
Diesel releases the Giant's hands... and FOREARM BASHES HIM ON THE HEAD!!! Big Daddy Cool pulls up the Giant and hooks him for a SIDE RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP!! He tries to fall back with him... NO!
Howard: No WAY!
JR: He's too big! TOO MASSIVE!
The Giant turns on Diesel and nearly un-boots him with a FOREARM SMASH! THEN ANOTHER... AND ANOTHER!!! Diesel is being rocked!!! The Giant kicks him in the leg!!! Then a kick to the stomach!!!
The Giant whips Diesel to the ropes! They threaten to snap from the impact as the champion bounces off and back towards the Giant...
