'So at WrestleMania 24, all the talking stops, Rey Mysterio will team up with Oscar De La Hoya to take on The Animal, Batista, the Hall Of Famer, and Floyd 'Money' Mayweather, in a match for the ages' goes Grisham over the graphic, the sounds of Rev Theory then fading.
'Now last year at WrestleMania 23, we saw perhaps the most emotional match of all time, as Ric Flair was forced to retire at the hands of Triple H...this year, in Orlando, for one night only, we'll see the in-ring return of the Nature Boy, as he takes on Michael Shane' goes Grisham.
'And at this time, would you please welcome my special guest.....he is a legend in his own right, and a former manager of Ric Flair.....Bobby....The Brain....Heenan' goes Grisham, a smattering of applause from both he and the production crew as Heenan walks onto the set.
'Thanks a lot for joining us Mr. Heenan, it's a pleasure to have you help us count down to WrestleMania 24' goes Grisham, shaking hands with 'The Weasel'.
'Well with the amount of money Vince was offering me, I wasn't gonna turn it down son' goes Heenan in response, audible laughs from the production crew.
'Quite......quite.....so let's talk about this match right here, Ric Flair, back for one night only, he's been out for over a year....is that gonna affect him here tonight?' asks Grisham.
'Oh yeah son, no doubt, Ric's got an amazing amount of stamina for a guy the wrong side of 60, but I think we might see some ring rust tonight' goes Heenan, Grisham nodding.
'And what about his ability when facing a young superstar such as Michael Shane, you managed Ric against some of the bright young talents back in the 90's here in the WWE...can Ric Flair hang with Michael Shane tonight?' asks Todd, Bobby looking thoughtful.
'Well I don't really know about that, when I managed Ric, he went through that Royal Rumble in 92....but he lost to Mr. Perfect in 93 in a Loser Leaves Town...and he's, what, 15 years older now....I hope he can turn it on, I really do' he states, Todd nodding.
'Well that leads me onto my final question here'-
'You mean I got paid all that money to do a two minute spot?' interjects Heenan.
'No no, this is my last question for now, you're sticking around for the rest of the show' replies Grisham.
'Oh....damn' sighs Heenan.
'Michael Shane...what d'you think about him?' asks Todd, Heenan looking thoughtful.
'Y'know what Rob...' he starts, Todd looking confused.
'He kinda reminds me of a young Ric Flair, he's got the look, he's got the style, the guy can talk, hell, he could sell ice to the eskimos, I think he's got a great future' states Heenan.
'Well thanks a lot for those thoughts, ladies and gentlemen, for the time being...Bobby Heenan' goes Grisham, clapping again as we fade to a video...
