[After helping Shawn Michaels up on his feet] You're one tough son of a bitch. [Shakes Shawn's hand and embraces/hugs him]
S1 E15Unfinished Business
Finally, the Rock has come back to Atlanta! And finally, the Rock has come back to WrestleMania! The Rock promises that this will be the most memorable WrestleMania of all time. The electricity is in the air! It's all around us! Can you FEEL it? Can you TASTE it?! Can you SMELL it?!? [The crowd reacts to every sentence he says. When he is done, the crowd chants "Rocky".] We are making history - right now we're making history, so we're gonna do something special. Atlanta, we're gonna have some fun. [the crowd reacts] When the Rock says "Wrestle", the people will say "Mania". Wrestle...
[responding] Mania...
Wrestle...
Mania...
Wrestle...
Mania!
And to all the WWE Super... the Rock is getting goosebumps, Good Lord almighty! And to all the WWE Superstars, past and present, and to one WWE Superstar in particular, [referring to John Cena] who right now is in the back trying to decide which rainbow Fruity Pebble T-Shirt he's going to put on tonight... [The Rock signals for some water. Again the crowd chants "Rocky".] Oh, this is gonna get good, this is gonna get good. Before we do this next one, let the Rock take a drink of water. But this ain't any water. This is the People's Water! [The crowd reacts.] When the Rock says "Yabba", the people say "Dabba". Yabba...
Dabba...
Yabba...
Dabba...
Yabba...
Dabba!
And this last one, this last one needs no introduction whatsoever. It's the Rock, the People's Champ. He's never alone. He's with the millions...
AND MILLIONS!
He's with the millions...
AND MILLIONS!
...of the Rock's fans, because this is Wrestlemania, this is the Showcase of the Immortals, and this is hosted by the jabroni beatin', lalalalao! Pie eatin', trail blazin', eyebrow raisin', heart stopping, elbow dropping, electrifying the dirty south, so know your role and shut your mouth, the Brahma Bull, ever defiant, standing as tall as Andre the Giant. This night, WrestleMania, Atlanta, the Georgia Dome, is bigger than Christmas, so no offense, Santa, because The Rock is bringing it all over At-lanta! [The crowd again chants "Rocky"] If you s... [stops] Oh no no no no no NO! No... that catchphrase is the most famous, the most electrifying catchphrase in the world! Men, women, children of all ages, races - they say it. So this is going to be special, because that catchphrase doesn't belong to the Rock, that catchphrase belongs to the people. So, Atlanta, we're gonna do something special, we're gonna electrify the world! Everybody, everybody on your feet! You're already on your feet! So everybody, right now feel the electricity! Assume the position with the Rock, 'cause we're not saying it, we're saying it loud and proud and we're saying it together. [the crowd joins in] IF YOU SMELLLLLL-LALALALAO, WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN'!
Look at this man, CM Punk. He is a charismatic figure. The people follow him, and he has one thing to get him through, and that thing is faith.
He's got about as many followers as you've got Cole Miners.
Can I have your attention please? Can I have your attention please? There he is, "Good ol' JR", Jim Ross, the man with the second-biggest ego in sports-entertainment. Hey, JR, I like how you're waddling your way down to the ring. Glad you're staying in shape since I took your job. You know who the man is with the biggest ego in the entire world? None other than my opponent tonight, Jerry Lawler. You know, Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross have a lot in common — they're both overweight,...
What?!
[cont'd] They're both overrated,...
What?!
and they're both over the hill! You know, I've been thinking a lot over the past 24 hours about...about this match here tonight, and what I've been thinking about is Jerry Lawler has been in this business about as long as I've been alive, yet tonight is Jerry Lawler's first WrestleMania. And guess what, all you Cole Miners — this is Michael Cole's first WrestleMania. So, ladies and gentlemen, when tonight is over, and this main event is concluded, JR, you're gonna go back to making really bad barbecue sauce; Jerry Lawler, you're gonna be embarrassed and humiliated; and Stone Cold Steve Austin's gonna raise my hand in victory; and then all of you, all over the world, you are gonna proclaim me the new Mr. WrestleMania!
Undertaker will absolutely do anything to keep that streak alive, but J.R., you and I both know...nothing lasts forever.
And somehow, some way, the Streak lives!
When you're as pretty as Michelle McCool, you don't like to be dropped flat on your face.
When you're as ugly as I am, you don't like to be dropped flat on your face.
If anything happened to your face, it'd be an improvement.
Exactly.
[after the WWE Championship match ends in a double count-out] Can I have your attention please? I've just received an e-mail from the anonymous Raw General Manager. [He opens the laptop and begins reading from it a la Michael Cole] And I quote: "As Raw General Manager, I think..." IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK! [He tosses the laptop to the floor and enters the ring] The Rock is the host of WrestleMania, and the Rock says there is no way WrestleMania is over! The Rock says this match must restart right now! No disqualification, no count-out, no time limit, no doubt about it, no cryin' to your mama, no way on God's green earth under God's hot sun in this beautiful Georgia Dome will this match end like that! So you can take your double count-out, take your little computer, take your awesome, take your Fruity Pebbles, roll them all up in a ball, turn them sumbitches sideways, and stick 'em straight up your candy-ass! It is time to give the people what they want!
[chant during the Divas match] DANIEL BRYAN!
We are now just moments away. As the guest referee inside Hell in a Cell, you must be filled with conflicted emotions. Shawn, your thoughts?
This match is the end of an era. Something's coming to an end. It's either the end of the Streak, which means the end of the Undertaker, or it's the end of the Game, which means he couldn't do what I couldn't do. Facing the Undertaker ended my career. Isn't it ironic that I hold the power in the palm of my hand to end an era?
[During the epic Hell in a Cell match, Shawn Michaels tosses away the steel chair from Triple H who administered 15 chair shots to the Undertaker]
[To referee Shawn Michaels] YOU WANT IT DONE? THEN YOU END IT!
JUST COVER HIM!...It doesn't have to be like this, just co— YOU KNOW HE'S NOT GONNA QUIT!...COVER HIM!
[Shawn sees Triple H grabbing another chair and stops him]
C'mon, just hold! [goes to check The Undertaker] Take, it's one match, c'mon.
[Undertaker shakes his heads in defiance]
Let me—
[Triple H shoves Shawn away and administers three more chair shots to The Undertaker]
[To referee Shawn Michaels] YOU WANT IT DONE? THEN YOU END IT!...END IT, OR I WILL!
[goes to check The Undertaker again] Please, c'mon.
[To Shawn Michaels] Don't stop it. Don't stop it!...DO NOT...STOP IT!
[yelling to Undertaker from a distance] STAY DOWN!...STAY DOWN!!
[Later in the match, Triple H grabs a Sledgehammer from outside the ring, but Shawn Michaels confronts him]
You know he ain't gonna quit.
I don't care. You end it or I will. You wanna show compassion? I'm not.
You know he's not gonna stop.
I don't care, Shawn. I'm ending this one way or the other... End it, or I will.
[referring to Triple H] The Game makes his way up!
Ohhhh no!
[Triple H counters by sliding back and pushes the Undertaker into the turnbuckle]
He slips off the back—
[Undertaker runs into Shawn Michaels's Sweet Chin Music to the jaw, which staggers The Undertaker]
BOOM!
[Triple H kicks Undertaker in the gut and underhooks both of his arms]
SWEET CHIN MUSIC! SWEET CHIN MUSIC!
[overlapping] LOOK AT THIS! LOOK AT THIS!
[Triple H executes his finishing move, The Pedrigree, on the Undertaker]
SWEET CHIN MUSIC—!
[overlapping] PEDIGREE!
[overlapping] PEDIGREE! A PEDIGREE!
[Shawn Michaels runs in to make the count.]
STREAK'S OVER! STREAK'S OVER!
[Shawn Michaels counts as the crowd chants "1...2..."]
ANOTHER COUNT! HE GOT IT—!
[Undertaker raises his left shoulder up]
OH—!
[Shawn Michaels collapses by the turnbuckle in disbelief as he covers his own face over what he just done]
OH, HE HAVEN'T GOT IT! IT'S NOT OVER! IT'S NOT OVER! THE STREAK LIVES! AND MICHAELS— OH, HE'S—
Shawn Michaels have been calling this matchup down the middle! He was gonna ring the bell and take Taker out of it! And then he was put in the Hell's Gate!
Michaels had put into a very tough position for Mr. WrestleMania to be in!
[Instant replay is shown at the previous moment]
His emotions overwhelming him!
Here's this kick, right there! Bam! Downtown! A slobberknocker! The Sweet Chin Music! And then The Pedrigree!
And somehow, amazingly, The Undertaker still lives— look at this!
The Undertaker will not die! On April 1st, 2012, he will not die!
I tell you, in four decades of sitting at ringside, I can honestly say I have never ever witnessed anything like what we have just seen.
The Undertaker is 20-0 at WrestleMania!
[as the Undertaker tries to get up] Look at the Undertaker's back; he's just fighting to get back up. The era has ended, we will never see it again, and what a way to go.
[As Undertaker, Triple H and Shawn hug at the top of the ramp]
A standing ovation from 78,363, and a moment that will live in infamy in WWE, an image that we can never replicate, an image that we'll all remember forever.
We got people behind the scoreboard!
