WWE Monday Night RAW1993

The Rock:
After seven long years...

[the audience cheers]

The Rock:
Finally...

[the audience cheers louder]

The Rock:
Finally...

[the audience cheers louder still]

The Rock:
Finally... The Rock has come back to Anaheim! Which means finally, The Rock has come back to Monday Night Raw!

[the audience cheers again]

The Rock:
Which means finally, The Rock has come back... home.

[the audience cheers again, and break into a "Rocky" chant]

The Rock:
Now, before The Rock gets into that... before we electrify, before we turn this out tonight... for those of you who don't know, The Rock has many nicknames. The Great One, The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment, The People's Champion. But I want to tell you something that's important to me right now. I need to take this moment, and I need to tell you something as Dwayne. It's been a long time since I've been back. Seven years, to be exact. But I want to take this moment, in the middle of this ring, to tell you why I'm back. It's not because of the money, it's not to promote a movie. I am back in the middle of this ring because of you.

[the audience cheers]

The Rock:
When I left, when I left the WWE seven years ago, I dreamed big, and you guys dreamed big with me. You helped me accomplish my goals. I accomplished my dreams because you never left my side.

[the audience cheers again]

The Rock:
And I want to take this moment to tell you all here, you're live here, millions watching around the world. I want to tell you thank you, I love you, and it is because of you that I am back in this ring, and it is because of you, and I give you my word, I am never, ever going away.

[the audience cheers, and begins another "Rocky" chant]

The Rock:
Simply put, ladies and gentlemen, The Rock is back!

[another audience pop]

The Rock:
Now, The Rock is back because I wanted to do something unprecedented. Something no man had ever done before. I wanted to host WrestleMania. So it happened. The Rock called Vince McMahon and Vince McMahon said "Rock, I know why you're calling. I know you know I need a host for WrestleMania. Rock, there's only one man electrifying enough to host WrestleMania. Rock, there's only one man that can captivate the world. Rock, that man can only be Justin Bieber."

[laughter and jeers]

The Rock:
But I told Vince, I said "No, no, no, no. Hey, no. The Rock knows Justin, he's cool. Dig-dig the kid. Cool kid. But make no mistake about it, Vince, there is only one man capable enough to host WrestleMania. That man is the jabroni-beating, la-la-la-la pie eating, trailblazing, eyebrow raising step off the break, put your foot on the gas, always ready to whoop some ass, People's Champ, The Rock!"

[audience cheers]

The Rock:
"The Rock is going to WrestleMania. The Rock will host WrestleMania, and at the drop of a dime, The Rock will layeth the smack down at WrestleMania." But... to who? That's the question. Could it be... the WWE Champion, The Miz?

[audience pops]

The Rock:
He's the one that goes around saying "I'm the Miz, and I'm awesome. I'm awesome, I'm awesome." I hear that all the time. "I'm awesome." Well, The Rock ain't no scientist but he pretty much knows that there's one formula that's a fact. If you gotta run around shooting your mouth off telling everybody how awesome you are, it means you absolutely, undoubtedly, unquestionably, one hundred percent completely *suck*!
