[Over the loudspeaker, The Rock saying the words "Do you smell what The Rock is cooking?" are heard, signaling his arrival]
Introducing first... from Miami, Florida, weighing 275 pounds, the World Wrestling Federation Champion, The Rock!
[The Rock slowly enters with the WWF Championship belt hoisted on his right shoulder]
What an athlete. The WWF Champion. A 27-year-old prodigy!
I'm telling ya, it's good to be The King, but, it's gotta be great to be The Rock!
The Rock, the number one man in this business! And the reason is over his shoulder: The WWF Title!
And even you got to admit, J.R., it looks so good over the shoulder of The Rock! I mean, he's the true— I mean, he's the epitome of a champion! He's the kind of man you would want representing your organization! Not some beer-swilling, finger-giving idiot like Stone Cold Steve Austin! Admit it, J.R.!
Well, that's your opinion. No doubt The Rock is a gifted athlete. [The Rock climbs above the turnbuckle where he slowly raises the belt] An amazing, amazing specimen! First third-generation star in WWF history.
[The Rock climbs off the ropes, and threatens referee Mike Chioda with an elbow] Uh-oh!
Oh, what a match-up this is gonna be—
[Glass shatters and "I Won't Do What You Tell Me" plays, signaling the arrival of Stone Cold Steve Austin; the crowd erupts; The Rock is alert and ready for Austin as he hands the championship to Chioda]
His opponent, and challenger...from Victoria, Texas, weighing 252 lbs, Stone Cold Steve Austin!
And the Rattlesnake is ready! [Austin pushes the cameraman away at the ring steps.] This crowd is jacked! And here we are at WrestleMania XV! [As Austin walks by The Rock begins to taunt him] And The Rock already talking trash! Just like he did when he played for the Miami Hurricanes down at—at...at the Orange Bowl! [The Rock obstructs Austin's path while taunting him further.] They talk—they talked a lot of trash! They psyched out a lot of people! [Austin looks to the referee...] But, King, I don't think Austin can be intimidated—
You don't think— [Austin strikes The Rock first as they trade shots]
OH! A RIGHT HAND!
[The bell sounds, beginning their No Disqualification Match]
Here they go!
HERE THEY GO! WWF TITLE, ON THE LINE!
