I think we are gonna see the most electrifying move in all of sports!
Look at the people! Look at the people!
That's because it's the People's Elbow!
[Just before The Rock can hit the Elbow, the entire arena goes dark. The following is unseen]
What the... who the hell?! Wait a minute! Someone's destroying our announce table! Who the hell is that?! They're attacking Rock! Holy cow, King! King, look at who that is! Oh, my God, it's The Shield!
The Shield! The Shield! That was The Shield! And they just triple-powerbombed Rock through the table! [The lights come back on, revealing The Rock laid out on the dismantled announce table, CM Punk lying in the ring] Ladies and gentlemen, th...King, that was The Shield!
The referee didn't see it! The referee doesn't see it! He has no idea The Shield did that! He's got no idea!
[referee Mike] Chioda, that was The Shield!
I think they did something to the referee too! I think The Shield did something to the referee!
Day 435 will be tomorrow for CM Punk! Admit it now, Michael! He's the best in the world!
The winner of this match and still WWE Champion: CM Punk!
This is absolutely horrendous!
It's all fair, Michael, in love and war! CM Punk is the best in the world! Now would you please acknowledge...
No, we're gonna acknowledge it.
How is that fair?! We watched The Shield, three feet away from us, walk out here and triple-bomb The Rock through a table!
Michael, I saw the exact same thing you saw! Michael Chioda, the referee, didn't see it! CM Punk is about to leave the Royal Rumble Champion!
So you're saying it's not cheating if you don't get caught.
That is ex...oh, you're one to talk, King!
MMr. McMahon
Seems to me that, CM Punk, your celebration is over! I told you if The Shield got involved in your match-up, we would strip you of the Championship!
MMr. McMahon
Oh, I know! I know, technically, we couldn't see The Shield involved, right? So that means we're all stupid, it wasn't The Shield? CM Punk, it is my duty as Chairman of the Board...
Oh, shut up, cheerleader.
MMr. McMahon
...to officially...
RThe Rock
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We ain't ending this night like that. You don't take it from him. I am. Restart the match now!
MMr. McMahon
[after a few moments of deliberation] You heard the man, restart the match!
That's why The Rock's the People's Champion! Give the people what they want! Give them a conclusion!
Here it comes! Another People's Elbow! [Rock hits the Elbow on Punk] Yes!
What do you gotta do to beat this guy?!
Cover, hook of the leg. [Chioda counts to three] THE ROCK HAS DONE IT! THE ROCK HAS DONE IT! THE ROCK HAS DONE IT!
[over Cole] You're kidding me! You're kidding me!
The winner of this match...and NEW WWE Champion: The Rock!
The ten-year wait is over!
The Rock is again People's Champion!
Ten years, just like Muhammad Ali came back and won the World Championship, The Rock, the Great One!
[on Bray Wyatt's backwards crab walk] This freak needs an exorcist.
JLJohn "Bradshaw" Layfield
Yeah. Linda Blair.
She was not the Exorcist.
No, she was the one that needed to be exorcised. That was so long ago, I don't think anyone remembers. That was, like, the early 70s.
Randy, tonight you put your championship on the line against John Cena. I mean, this is a man that is...
RORandy Orton
This is a man, Renee, that I've beaten. But you already know that, everybody knows that. But after tonight, when I beat him again, John Cena goes to the back of the line.
That's actually an interesting choice of words, Randy, 'cause right now, it seems that there's quite a line formed to challenge you for your championship. Brock Lesnar's made it clear that he wants to come after your championship; Batista now back in WWE after being gone for four years, he wants a shot at your championship. If you retain your title tonight, the winner of the Royal Rumble will go on to face you at WrestleMania. And now with Bray Wyatt fresh off of his victory over Daniel Bryan, he's now thrown his hat into the ring.
RRandy
Renee, Renee, when you're on top of the mountain, people are gonna want a shot. That's just how this business works, that's why that line is forming. But no one's gonna touch me. See, Brock Lesnar, Dave Batista, they're good, but they're not great...like me. Bray Wyatt? I mean, he's a Duck Dynasty reject, for God's sakes. He's definitely not "face of the WWE" material, like me. I'm the true face, the one and only face. It's not Brock, Batista, CM Punk or Daniel Bryan, and it certainly isn't that deranged hillbilly who sits in a rocking chair every once in a while. No, and I'm gonna make sure tonight that once and for all, everyone knows that it is definitely not John Cena either.
[Chants during the Cena-Orton match]
RANDY SAVAGE!
Y2J!
YOU BOTH SUCK!
THIS IS AWFUL!
WE WANT DIVAS!
[after the Wyatt Family's interference costs Cena the match] THANK YOU, WYATT!
Kofi Kingston on the barricade. Kofi Kingston went over the top rope, guys, but remember he's not been eliminated.
That's right, Kofi Kingston's still in it.
Kofi Kingston has been a highlight reel of spectacular moves in the past...
Guys, guys, come on, he's a mile away from the ring.
I know he's not out, but he might as well be.
Last year, he borrowed my chair.
[Kofi Kingston walks back on the barricade]
What is Kofi gonna do here?
He'll do what he can do. What's he trying to do?
I don't think he can fly.
He can't fly. This is impossible.
[Kingston runs on the barricade and leaps onto the ring and re-enters]
MJMichael and JBL
YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!
Kofi Kingston just turned into Bob Beamon!
He's hopped on chairs, he's walked on his hands, he's used a human bridge.
[cont'd] He's leaped from the barricade to the ring. He's the Royal Rumble Highlight Reel!
Guys, I just said he can't fly, but I believe he can.
JBL, you seem to know all your Royal Rumble facts. Has somebody won from every position of entering?
No, they haven't. #6, #7, #9, #10, there's a few spots that nobody has won.
You have way too much time on your hands.
It's called research, guys. It's what I do.
He knows Willie Nelson's middle name.
