…CUT to an aerial shot of the Disney MGM Studios as more pyro ERUPTS in front of a gigantic WCW sign perched atop the entranceway of MGM Studios. The fans are going WILD as a metallic “TNT LIVE!” graphic appears on the upper-right hand side of the screen while a lower-third graphic reading “DISNEY/MGM STUDIOS, FLA” briefly fade in and out.
