"And you all pay homage to the man"

Ric Flair: "Let me just say: After video distorting the belt that proclaimed me the real world's champion, I'm going to tell you all. With a tear in my eye, this is the greatest moment in my life. When you walk around this world, and you tell everybody that you're number one, the only way that you get to stay number one is to be number one. And this is the only title in the wrestling world that makes you number one. When you are the king of the WWF, you rule the world. Think about it like that. Mr. Perfect! The Brain! Wooooo! WOOOOO!!!"

Bobby Heenan: "You did it. I was never so impressed with anything I've ever seen in all my life. He went out there for over 60 minutes. Never took a backstep. Took it to Hogan. Took it to the Undertaker. Took it to whoever got in that ring. That's why we're calling him the real World's Heavyweight Champion."

Mr. Perfect: "Hey, we're not the guys to say: We told you so. But: [im Chor mit Heenan] We told you so. Haha!"

Gene Okerlund: "Okay, very good. Ric Flair you - put that cigarette out - you have made World Wrestling Federation history tonight."

Ric Flair: "It's the greatest moment of my life. I want to jump. I want to party. But, I've got to tell you like this. For the Hulk Hogans, and the Macho Mans, and the Pipers, and the Sids, now it's Ric Flair. And you all pay homage to the man! WOOOOO!!!! Hahaha! I love it! I love it! I love it!"
