"Hulkamaniacs, when I said that WrestleMania VI was more intense than all five WrestleManias put together, I meant it, brothers! Every workout that I train is more intense! The pressure on my back is more intense than ever before! And every minute that I try to sleep, my heart pounds like a drum! I feel Hulkamania's in danger right now, Hulkamaniacs. This is the ultimate test of all times. And when I get in danger, I go back to my roots, I go back to the instincts. That's why I went back to Gold's Gym in Venice Beach, California. The Power Pit. That's when I went to the magic mirror, and I said, 'Mirror Mirror on the wall, is the Ultimate Warrior the one that's going to make the Hulkster rise and fall?' Usually, I do not get a clear-cut answer, Hulkamaniacs. But this time, the magic mirror looked at me and said, 'Hulkster, you understand the natural balance in nature. You understand the food chain. You'll know if it happens. You'll know if it comes.' All of the sudden, Hulkamaniacs, I started getting worried. The mirror faded out, there were no more answers. That's when I realized that WrestleMania VI was the most important day for the rest of our lives because this will predict the future! Ultimate Warrior, if you're that teeny little Hulkamaniac that has trained and said his prayers and eaten his vitamins and finally rose to the #1 contender position, I don't recognize you, brother! Maybe that's why you wore the war paint, maybe that's why you cover your face, so I won't know who you are. But as we get into WrestleMania VI, and you feel the power of the largest arms in the world, and as I wipe that war paint off your face, Ultimate Warrior, if I realize that you are the new chosen one, I have an obligation to my Hulkamaniacs to fight with everything in my heart! My heart is strong like a lion, my arms are like the redwood trees in the forest. I have no faults. my thoughts, my mind, my soul is pure! But Ultimate Warrior, it has been written, it has been said, and it shall be done at WrestleMania VI. And if I find out that you're the one that has to walk for eternity in my shoes, brother, let it be! But you got to prove to me, by beating me, and all my little Hulkamaniacs that you are the Ultimate Hulkamaniac! And if you're not, whatcha gonna do when the largest arms in the world run wild on you?!"
—Hulk Hogan's promo against the Ultimate Warrior before their match at WrestleMania VI, March 10, 1990
"Mean" Gene Okerlund: Excuse me! Excuse me! What in the world are you thinking?
Hulk Hogan: "Mean" Gene, the first thing you gotta do is to tell these people to shut up if they want to hear what I've gotta say!
"Mean" Gene: I have been with you for so many years for you to join up with the likes of these two men absolutely makes me SICK to my stomach! And I think that these people here and a lot of people around the whole wrestling world have had just about enough of this man and this man, and you want to put yourself in this group? You've gotta be...kidding me.
Hogan: Well, the first thing you've gotta realize, brother, is this right here is the future of wrestling. You can call this the New World Order of Wrestling, brother. These two men came from a great big organization up north and everybody was wondering about who the third man was. Well who knows more about that organization than me, brother?
"Mean" Gene: I've been there and done that. You have made the wrong decision in my opinion.
Hogan: Well let me tell you something, brother! I made that organization a monster! I made people rich up there. I made the people that ran that organization rich up there, brother. And when it all came to pass, the name Hulk Hogan, the man Hulk Hogan got bigger than the entire organization, brother! And then Billionaire Ted, amigo. He wanted to talk turkey with Hulk Hogan. Well, Billionaire Ted promised me movies, brother. Billionaire Ted promised me millions of dollars. And Billionaire Ted promised me world caliber matches. And as far as Billionaire Ted goes, Eric Bischoff, and the whole WCW goes, I'm bored, brother. That's why...these two guys here, the so called Outsiders, these are the men I want as my friends. They are the new blood of professional wrestling, brother. And not only are we going to take over the whole wrestling business, with Hulk Hogan, the new blood and the monsters with me. We will destroy everything in our path, "Mean" Gene.
("Mean" Gene notices rubbish being thrown into the ring)
"Mean" Gene: Look at all of this crap in this ring! This is what's in the future for you if you want to hang around the likes of this man Hall, and this man Nash.
Hogan: As far as I'm concerned, all this crap in this ring represents these fans out here! For two years, brother! For two years, I held my head high. I did everything for the charities. I did everything for the kids. And the reception I got when I came out here...you fans can stick it, brother. Because if it wasn't for Hulk Hogan, you people wouldn't be here. If it wasn't for Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff would still be selling meat from a truck in Minneapolis. And if it wasn't for Hulk Hogan, all of these "Johnny-Come-Latelies" that you see out here wrestling wouldn't be here. I was selling out the world, brother, while they were bumming gas to put in their car to get to high school. So the way it is now, brother; with Hulk Hogan and the New World Organization of wrestling, brother; me and the new blood by my side. Whatcha gonna do when the New World Organization runs wild on you? Whatcha gonna do?
(Hogan chokes "Mean" Gene)
Hogan: What are you gonna do?
"Mean" Gene: HEY! Don't touch me, I've got a fleet of lawyers. Tony, Dusty, Bobby. Dammit, let's get back to you!
Tony Schiavone: All right. We have seen the end of Hulkamania. For Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, for Dusty Rhodes, For "Mean" Gene Okerlund, I don't know... I'm Tony Schiavone. Hulk Hogan, you can go to hell! We're outta here. Straight to hell.
