On WWF "Wrestling Challenge" before the In Your House PPV, we come back from commercial to see Howard Finkle standing in the ring with a microphone...
HF:"Ladies and gentlemen...'Rowdy' Roddy Piper!"
The crowd goes wild as their returning hero Roddy Piper emerges from the curtain and makes his way down to the ring. He is wearing his trademark white Hot Rod t-shirt and plaid kilt. Roddy gets in the ring and grabs the mic from Finkle.
RP:"I have come back to the WWF to chew bubblegum and kick ass...and I'm all out of bubblegum!
The crowd pops loudly for Piper's famous line from "They Live".
RP:"You know, I've been away from wrestling for the last few years. I've been doing movies and watching my kids grow up on my ranch, enjoying my retirement. When out of the blue I get a phone call, and it's Hulk Hogan. The same Hulk Hogan that tore down Madison Square Garden with me at Wrestlemania 1. Now Hogan and I have had our differences in the past but there was always a degree of respect between me and the big guy so when Hogan calls, I listen. And Hogan said that the World Wrestling Federation need the Hot Rod back. That there were guys running around here that were tarnishing the history of the WWF, a history that Hogan and I built. Guys like 'The Million Dollar Man' Ted Dibiase. So as I was sitting at home watching 'Raw', I saw Ted Dibiase trying to buy off wrestlers with a few hundred bucks and it made me sick! Dibiase, these young guys in the WWF might have a price but I sure as hell don't! As I sat at home watching, getting madder and madder, I suddenly heard the 2 words that would bring everything into perspective for me...those 2 words were 'open challenge'. Dibiase, you ain't never come across someone like Roddy Piper before and this Sunday you'll be kissing your precious belt goodbye while I'm kicking your ass. Cause I can guarandamntee you one thing...my name is 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper and you ain't seen nothing yet!"
Piper drops the mic as the crowd roars. He soaks it in for a moment then makes his way to the back.
