[APPLAUSE]
>> Now what? >> He's doing things his way. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> The Rock is doing things his way in Richmond. >> I cannot, no. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> And here it goes. Don't tell me. [INAUDIBLE] There go the sunglasses,
the people's sunglasses. It's the most electrifying move
in sports entertainment today. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> The people's elbow. >> An exclamation point! [LAUGH] The people's elbow. And The Rock has got the championship. >> What?
>> The Rock. And listen to the crowd. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> If you smell what the Rock is cooking. >> And they're smelling what
the Rock is cooking [CROSSTALK] >> What a minute, what? Where's Rock taking the championship? >> Well, it's leaving with him. I guess, he got the authority, Mr.
McMahon made the official. >> Well the Rock's leaving
with the championship, and he laid waste to the bull dog,
at Triple H. [MUSIC] >> [APPLAUSE]
>> First and foremost, I have to say that, I can't fathom,
comprehend the pan, and the suffering and the anguish,
that the families and friends of the victims are going through. The workers working
diligently 24 hours a day, sifting through the rubble and looking for any remnants of life. It's difficult to talk about this,
and I will say that I can't, I couldn't imagine what it
must be like to be there, I couldn't imagine if my
own family were there. I will offer my condolences,
and certainly say that, everyone is in my heart and in my prayers. And I just wanna say
to everyone out there, again, to the families and friends, the victims, and everyone involved is to just, stay strong. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> And the Rocky chant, echoing through the Compaq Center. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Finally, The Rock has come back to Houston. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Now, seeing as this is a very special night,
and The Rock has come to Houston
to have a great time. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Always does. >> And seeing as we are live,
live on The Rock Show, live on SmackDown! >> [APPLAUSE]
>> The Rock is issuing, The Rock is issuing a challenge. Anybody in the back who wants to go,
one on one with the great one? >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Who wants to go one on one with the great one,
and get a piece of the rock? >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Who's gonna accept this challenge? Somebody's gonna jump on it,
I'll tell you. >> Well, it's not gonna be me. >> Lord, I hope not.
>> Well, stop poking me in the ribs like you
want me to get up there or something. >> Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky. >> Rock pacing like a caged lion. >> Rocky, Rocky, Rocky. >> JR, why don't you? Here we go! [MUSIC] >> Now there comes Shawn Stasiak. >> [COUGH] And? >> And Stacy Keibler. Thank you very much. >> Stasiak or Keibler? >> Does it matter? As long as she wears that dress,
I don't care. >> And here comes Stasiak. >> Run like a wild man down here and all. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> The Rock just step down the line, Stasiak. He must have a depth perception problem. >> He's not learned his lesson. >> Like the Rock was saying,
if there's anybody back there. Who wants a shot at The Rock,
come up, right now. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> What is he doing? >> He's gonna lose his lunch,
breakfast and dinner. >> Look at [INAUDIBLE]
>> [APPLAUSE] >> No! >> Look at Rikishi, look at The Rock! >> Rock holding Mr. McMahon,
I think Rikishi's gonna back that up. >> Give it to him, give it to him! >> No, don't, don't, he's a billionaire! He owns this company [SOUND]

>> Thank God! Thank God, there is a God in this world! >> On behalf of the millions! >> [INAUDIBLE]
>> The metric man catch your ass club is officially closed. If you smell. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Smell what The Rock is cooking. >> How does it feel being humiliated? [MUSIC] >> [APPLAUSE] [MUSIC] >> [INAUDIBLE] wait a minute
[INAUDIBLE] calm down, look out, Rock, what are you doing? >> The Rock ripping apart
our announce table, okay. >> Easy, Rock, take it easy now. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> No, wait, we need that stuff. >> And the Undertaker with a boot to
the face, Rock took way too much time. And the Undertaker floored
him with a boot to the head. >> I tried to warn The Rock. He just wouldn't listen to us. >> And the Undertaker driving
The Rock right into the ring barrier. And The Rock looks down and
out on his feet. This vicious, this sadistic, this monster,
this Undertaker is an absolute animal. >> [INAUDIBLE] [NOISE]
>> Not another steel chair. >> And the Undertaker, he's made a living
with steel chairs in recent weeks. >> How else he's gonna do that? >> I know, but he might look! Watch this. >> No, not this, not this. >> What?
>> Look, look. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> The Undertaker was gonna try and [INAUDIBLE]
>> The Rock's gone. [SOUND]
>> And a shot to the midsection of The Rock,
by The Undertaker. >> Look out, Rock! >> The Undertaker is hell bent on
crushing the throat of The Rock. And now The Undertaker and Rock continue. This is utter chaos and
destruction, here at ring side. >> Look out, The Rock,
Rock Bottom, Rock Bottom! The Rock Rock Bottomed The Undertaker! >> Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky,
Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky! >> [APPLAUSE] >> Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky! >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Finally, The Rock has come back. >> [APPLAUSE] >> Home. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> We got a very, very special show. This is a special show. It's a special night. Rock wanted to introduce
somebody right now. Here tonight, not only he's a Rock's boy. Not only a worldwide superstar,
Grammy nominated. More importantly than all of that,
Miami's own, Flo Rida. >> [APPLAUSE] >> So now we're back. Not only is The Rock back here tonight,
but The Rock is back on a very special show. The Rock is back on the show
that was named after The Rock. The rock is back on his show tonight,
in front of his home town. Smackdown. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Who in the blue hell are you? >> [LAUGH]
>> Is that a trick question? You know who I am. Everybody in the WWE Universe
knows who I am. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> My name is Mr. John Laurinaitis. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> I am the former executive vice president
of Town Relations, and the former General Manager of Raw and
Smackdown. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Well you clearly have me confused with
somebody who actually gives a crap. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> You interrupted storytime with The Rock. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> My former adversary, Teddy Long, gave me permission to
come out here and talk to you, Rock. Now I'm sure Teddy,
like everybody in the WWE universe, thinks I'm gonna come out here, talk too
long and end up getting rock bottom. >> [APPLAUSE] >> But that's not gonna happen. You know why? Because Rock, you and I are a lot alike. We're like two peas in a pod. You're the people's champion,
and I created people power. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> I was the greatest general manager the WWE has ever seen. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Until it was ruined by one man, named John Cena. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> John Cena's the reason I was fired. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> And John Cena is the reason I'm back. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Well, if you don't get to your point, John Cena is also gonna be the reason
you get your monkey ass kicked all over this arena. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> [INAUDIBLE] >> [APPLAUSE] >> Well here's my point, Rock, here's my point. >> John Cena, at Wrestlemania, will do
whatever he needs to do to beat you. I know that, and you know that. So I have got a business proposition for
you. You're a businessman,
and I'm a businessman. What to do you say,
Big Johnny in the corner of the Rock? Whoa, whoa, whoah. They may not like it Rock, but guess what? You wanna be popular or do you wanna win? Because you know,
winning is everything, at any cost. That is why, with me in your corner,
there is no way, and Big Johnny says, no way,
John Cena will beat you at WrestleMania. With me in your corner,
I can guarantee your victory. You and me Rock. We're like the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Two great tastes. It tastes great together. What do you say? >> I'll tell you what, since The Rock
is the People's Champion, you invented People Power, and I love Reese's Peanut
Butter Cups, but how about this. I think it's only fitting and
appropriate that we involve the people. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> What all of you like to see,
this stale, old, indigestible, stick to the top of the top
of the roof of your mouth until you wanna vomit
piece of peanut butter. Team up with the most electrifying piece
of chocolate the world has ever seen. >> [APPLAUSE] >> Well it seems as though the people have spoken. So, I'm a businessman just like you,
I have a business proposition for you. >> Rock bottom. >> Well, it's not a rock bottom. >> [APPLAUSE] >> How about you and I, together, send John Cena a message. Together? Like a peanut butter cup? >> I like that. What do you have in mind? What do you have in mind, Rock? >> Well, the first thing I have in mind, is the most important thing
in any business deal. Is a handshake. Shake my hand. Then you agree. All right. >> Uh-oh. >> Why would he do that? >> Spider in the pine. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> What's The Rock got against peanut butter? >> [APPLAUSE]
>> The People's Elbow. [SOUND] Now, that's some people power. >> If you smell what The Rock is cooking. [MUSIC]
Most electrifying man in the sports entertainment that's you my hero I love you so much man
