ALRIGHT! They kick off the show with some mini-promos where the superstars get a chance to tell us what they are thankful for this year!

- The Hulkamaniacs and Hulk Hogan are thankful that Hulkamania still has a stranglehold on the WWF!
- Ted DiBiase is thankful that you are poor!
- Jake Roberts is thankful that he has a big, long, throbbing snake!
- Demolition are just thankful that they don’t have to fight each other! Me too!
- The newly-crowned Macho King is thankful that he’s the Macho King!
- Jim Duggan’s looking more cross-eyed than ever. Oh, and he’s thankful for the USA or something like that.
- Dino Bravo is thankful for what little English-speaking skills he possesses!
- Dusty Rhodes, if you will, is thankful for all those yellow dots on his black outfit. Really, Dusty? I figured you’d at least be thankful for like a turkey leg and some mashed potatoes and gravy and pumpkin pies. Anything but dots. Unless it’s Dipping’ Dots! MMM!
- Big Bossman is thankful that he can yell and sound very angry!
- Brutus Beefcake is, ahh who cares.
- Martel is thankful for his good looks. My goodness, can you blame the man?
- Rick Rude is thankful because he’s got such a bangin’ body. All joking aside and in a completely heterosexual way, he’s got the best body in wrestling history IMO.
- Roddy Piper is thankful he isn’t Rick Rude, or should I say, dead? Ouch.
- The Genius is thankful for…does anyone else find him a little on the queer side?
- Mr. Perfect is thankful for being just so dang perfect.
- The Bushwhackers are thankful for basically what Dusty Rhodes is truly thankful for; the opportunity for gluttony.
- Bobby Heenan is thankful for his Heenan Family! Even Tully?
- Hey, Ultimate Warrior doesn’t do the promo right!

Oh well, let’s get this show started.
