We start with clips of Hulk Hogan & "Mean" Gene with Hogan preparing for his famous python protein as it's his gasoline when he gets ready for that no good rattlesnake Terry Funk but he tells Okerlund not to tell Funk the recipe as they try it. We then see Roddy Piper, Jesse Ventura, and the Hillbillies on the beach with Piper looking out with binoculars saying they're getting their yearly bath while Ventura says he thought he smelled bacon. Piper says he's worried about one thing but Ventura asks what's there to worry about with Piper saying after tonight Humphrey the humpback is going to be out of a job as we go to the intro.
