Cactus Jack: "[sitzt mit einer Halskrause auf einem Stuhl in der Mitte des Rings.] I have always taken a lot of chances in the ring and some very bad things have happened to me over the years, but I've always had the comfort of knowing that when I looked at my career, my dreams, the things I accomplished, the things I'd set my heart on... that it was always worth the pain. So people ask, 'Cactus, so how's your neck?', I say, that I'll be damned, if I'm gonna let a group of SCUM like DX put Cactus Jack away.

No, I guess, you see, that... Terry Funk's not here and I haven't talked to Terry... but I've left a message on his answering machine and I'm not saying this to sound tough, but... Cactus Jack and Terry Funk do not miss wrestling matches! So I have to guess, if the Funker was hurt enough to fly home, that it's probably pretty bad. And I really wish that people could know Terry a little bit better than what they see in the ring, because... people will always debate on who the greatest wrestler of all time is, but I guarantee you, you ask every damn last bunch of people in the dressroom, they'll say that Terry Funk is the gutsiest old bastard they've ever seen in their whole lives.

And I guess you've probably seen Terry's back, and I hope you saw WrestleMania, because it was a tremendous match and I'm very proud of it... and Terry was laying there on the bed with his belt and he said, 'Cactus, I'm gonna be alright because I consider this the last match of my career.' See, Terry always wanted to retire as a WWF champion and he said, 'Cactus, it's all been worth it!' But we don't have those belts now, do we?

And I'm not gonna get into the reason why, but I will say, that when Cactus Jack was laying - and I was conscious... and I could move, but it was very hard to move and I was not very far from being unconscious - and when I looked at Terry Funk, well, I heard something in my... in my ears that - I gotta tell you the truth - it kinda made me sick! That's... there was an announcement being made, thanking the fans for coming to the WWF event... and they said something about Stone Cold Steve Austin... and, uh, yeah, people... people started chanting his name...

And it's... it's funny, because... when I came here two years ago and I was Mankind, there were always people saying, 'Why don't you just be Cactus Jack?' Then when I came out in [?] and white boots they said, 'You know, why don't you just be Cactus Jack?' Well, I gave you Cactus Jack... I GAVE YOU EVERY *piep* PIECE OF ENERGY I HAD... any when I was laying there, helpless... [reißt sich sich die Halskrause ab]... you chanted someone else's name... [wirft den Stuhl weg]

This is not a knock on Stone Cold Steve Austin! Hey, I'm happy he's the champion. And he may not admit it, but we've known each other for a long time and he's been my friend. But what you [people] did to me and Terry Funk laying here in the middle of the ring was not only distasteful and disrespectful, it was *piep* disgusting... and I'm gonna give you a chance to make it up to me... because I'm gonna accept a group apology right now! [senkt das Mikro und hört sich Schmährufe und Pfiffe an]

Well... I can finally say for the first time, after thirteen years of blood, sweat and tears... that it's not worth it anymore... it's gonna be a long time before you see Cactus Jack in a ring again... [lässt das Mikro fallen und verlässt den Ring]"
