Buddy Rogers:(In his bed with a glass of champagne.)"Hello, everyone. This is your World Champion 'Nature Boy' Buddy Rogers. I've just been catching up on my beauty sleep before next week's big match with Jim Londos. If Jimmy thinks he can beat ol' Naitch in a 2 out of 3 Falls No Disqualification Match, then he's even dumber than Commissioner Joe Namath. I mean, come on Joey! What the Hell were you thinking when you picked a fight with my close personal friend Kevin Sullivan? You're lucky I don't break your legs with my FIGURE FOUR GRAPEVINE! I guess I'll just have to settle for breaking the "Golden Geek" Jimmy Londos' legs! Ha-Ha! Oh, girls! Your champ is calling you!"
Kevin Sullivan:(In a graveyard with an upside down burning cross.)"Here lies Ox Baker. Lost 2 Straight No DQ Falls and now he's met his maker! Ha-Ha-Ha! Is that the best you can throw at me, Namath? You've got to do way better than that, son. I'm a disciple of the great & powerful Abudadein. You can't even comprehend what that means, Namath. It means that the spirits of darkness flow through my veins. You better run, boy! You better run like Hell or else the Boogeyman's gonna get ya!(Waves his arms in the air while chanting BOOGA BOOGA BOOGA.)I'll see you in Hell, Namath.(Rolls his eyes in the back of his corpse-painted head.)BWAH-HA-HA-HA! The Joker's got nothin' on me, kiddies! BWAH-HA-HA-HA!"

Jim Londos: 'Nature Boy' Buddy Rogers. Without a doubt one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time. Buddy Rogers a man that will be facing me in the playoffs this Sunday and according to Mister Rogers, he is going to break my legs with his figure four. Well Buddy, I got some news for you my friend......I have a win over you this season and even last season my good friend Lou Thesz and I beat you and another Buddy in a tag-team match. You should focus more on winning and less on women and empty threats.
<Side Note: Londos and Steele have come together to give themselves a tag-team name for their upcoming match. "Golden Steele"

Not having my hopes set too high for Bishop Hell going against Thesz.
But it is no DQ so who knows what will happen....

Fred Blassie (angrily emerging from the locker room): "What do you want you pencil neck geek? I don't even know who that bum Caelum is. He's a ringer if I ever saw one, that's for sure. Not to mention that he has the referee in his back pocket. An illegal choke gets the first fall and a fast count gets the second. Tell me how that's fair, you pencil neck geek! Now get the hell out of my way I'm getting out of this dump. Toots grab my bags and keep away from me all of you pencil neck geeks!"
Bruiser Brody (getting stitched up in the locker room): "Jay Briscoe, I knew you were tough boy but I didn't know how tough. You earned my respect tonight and that's not an easy thing to do. I earned that win tonight through sheer brutality and that should serve as a lesson to you Mr. Nick Bockwinkel. I don't care how good you are, who you have beaten or that "weasel" manager you have always relied on to win the big ones. Let's see how you do against me one-on-one, Bockwinkel. I got this chain and this big boot ready to unleash fury on you, Huss Huss!"

Londos; Buddy Rogers, today you were a better man. Just the way wrestling is, tomorrow may have been my time. Good luck to the final four.

Buddy Rogers: "How many times to I have to say it? There's only one man in this business that can be called the best wrestler in the world, and that's Nature Boy Buddy Rogers. I said I'd break Jimmy Londos' legs, and I had him screaming for his mama back in Greece. Now I get the madman himself--Bruiser Brody. Brody, I've beat men that were bigger & tougher than you. What makes you think you can succeed when they failed? Nothing! That's what! You're just another stepping stone on my way to the championship. WOO! WOO! WOO! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Kevin Sullivan: "I'd like to congratulate my Dark Nature tag team partner Buddy Rogers on another magnificent win. He's definitely the most impressive wrestler of the playoffs. But what I really want to know is where was our esteemed commissioner, Joe Willie Namath, this week? I looked all over the arena for you, Joe Willie, and I couldn't find you anywhere. I hope you finally learned your lesson about what happens when you mess with the "Prince Of (Bleeping) Darkness" and what happens when you (bleep) with Abudadein! BWAH-HA-HA-HA!"
