Vince McMahon: Now, Rock, I know you're excited about Backlash. So am I. I know you're excited, or at least you think you are...
[to the crowd chanting "asshole"]
Vince McMahon: SHUT UP, I'M TALKING! I'm excited to be in Triple H's corner, and I know you're excited to have Stone Cold in your corner. But you should know this, Rock. You should know that my son Shane is very excited about Backlash, because, you see, we're not gonna have an Earl Hebner situation again. No, my son Shane will be the special guest referee in your match-up with Triple H this Sunday at Backlash. And, you know, the reason you're all upset and you've called us out here, that's gutsy, Rock. But you know, it simply tells me that you listened to what I said on Monday night. And you're wondering about Stone Cold. You're wondering whether or not you can trust Stone Cold Steve Austin. You're wondering whether or not Stone Cold is gonna strike you down at Backlash, aren't you? Remember, DTA, don't trust anybody, Rock.
The Rock: Speaking of don't trust anybody... what if the Rock told you that he spoke with Stone Cold, and Stone Cold didn't wanna wait 'til Backlash?
[the crowd cheers]
Vince McMahon: What do you mean by that?
The Rock: What if the Rock told you that Stone Cold was gonna make a special appearance on the Rock's show, "SmackDown!"?
[the crowd cheers louder]
Vince McMahon: Then I'd call you a damn liar! You know, Austin would never show up here tonight. Because, quite frankly, Austin doesn't have the temerity. In other words, Austin doesn't have the grapefruits to show up here tonight!
The Rock: Oh, for once in your pathetic life, why don't you just shut your mouth, Vince? Because the Rock says just, just as he's guaran-damn-teed, he's made the promise of the promise to walk out of Backlash the WWF champion, the Rock also guaran-damn-tees that Austin is here tonight! IF YOU SMELLLLLLLLL what the Rock is cooking!
