The notoriously narked Alabama native put Michael Cole in his place with a scathing assault on the announcer and anybody else that dared to doubt his credentials as the hardest man in the f*cking world.

"I'll break your *ss in half you little sh*thead" was his closing salvo after promising to work twice as hard as cousin Crash now he'd won the title. It was scarier looking than any of the million-or-so cookie sheet shots dished out in the banter brawl itself.
