00:00When it comes crashing down and it hurts inside
00:12You gotta take a stand, it don't help to hide
00:19If you hurt my friends, then you hurt my pride
00:27I gotta be a man, I can't let it slide
00:31I am a real American, fight for the rights on every man
00:38I am a real American, fight for what's right, fight for the rights
00:46Oh my gosh, this is sending Jill up and down my spine
01:0475,167 WWE fans sold out in the Superdome
01:12Michael Cole, JBL, the Hall of Famer, Jerry the King, all their guys
01:15It's all come full circle for Hulk Hogan
01:18You're right, and it's safe to say
01:20Without the Hulkster, there might not even be a WrestleMania 30
01:25How an upper pro is it to have Hulkamania running wild in the Superdome
01:31It was March 31st, 1985
01:37Hulk Hogan in the main event
01:40And tonight, the host of WrestleMania
01:44Well, let me tell you
02:14Do something, brother
02:15First off, I'd like to welcome everyone
02:24Here at the Silverdome
02:25To WrestleMania 30
02:27Everybody in the WWE Universe
02:30And everybody that's watching the WWE Network
02:35To tear the roof off this place
02:37Right here in New Orleans, Louisiana, brother
02:41Hulk thinks he's back at WrestleMania 3
02:43That's alright
02:45You know, I was there for the very first WrestleMania
02:49Right in Madison Square Garden
02:51Where me and Mr. T beat Rowdy Roddy Piper and Paul Orndoff
02:56That was just the beginning
02:58And then fast forward 30 years later
03:02WrestleMania 30
03:04Right here in the Silverdome
03:06I can't believe I'm the special host here for WrestleMania
03:11I'm sorry, it is the Superdome, brothers
03:18There you go
03:19I'm excited too
03:21I was just thinking about Body Slam and Andre the Giant
03:25But yes, sir
03:26We are here in the Superdome without a doubt
03:29And now that I've stood corrected by all my Hulkamaniacs
03:38That's what this is all about
03:4030 years of WrestleMania moments
03:43And tonight, there are definitely going to be
03:47More special WrestleMania moments
03:50And you never know when one of those special moments
03:54Oh my God
03:56Are you kidding me?
04:06Is he really here?
04:08The Texas Rattlesnake
04:20Stone Cold
04:22Steve Austin
04:23Special moment
04:24Special moment
04:25It is thunderous
04:29And the Superdome
04:31The Hellraiser is here
04:38The first time in WrestleMania since
04:45WrestleMania 27
04:47This is great
04:49Look at this
04:50Look at this picture
04:52I love it
04:55What a start to WrestleMania
04:59I mean, guys
05:01Arguably
05:03The two most popular
05:05Superstars
05:06In the history
05:07Of WWE
05:08Standing in the same
05:09Same ring
05:10Right now
05:11This is a dream come true
05:13Oh, man
05:16The Badass S.O.B. is back
05:20I wonder if we're going to see
05:22Hulk Hogan
05:23On the receiving end
05:24Of a stunner
05:24That's it
05:26Hey, Stone Cold
05:27Out of control
05:27I can tell you that first in
05:29Look at the Hulkster
05:30Hulkamania may be stunned
05:33Hulkamania may be stunned
05:33You're looking at it for the first time ever
05:44If you're ready for WrestleMania 30
05:48Give me a hell yeah
05:49Good to be back here at the Silverdome
05:55Hey, let me tell you something
06:02I'm happy to be here today
06:03Normally
06:03When Stone Cold Steve Austin
06:06Comes inside a squared circle
06:08At WrestleMania 30
06:09I open up a can of whoop-ass
06:12And whip the living hell
06:14Out of whoever's in this ring with me
06:17If you want me to open up a can of whoop-ass
06:23On Hulk Hogan
06:24Give me a hell yeah
06:26That's what I thought you was going to say
06:31Hey, we had a damn good night
06:34Last night at the Hall of Fame
06:35I was sitting right next to the Immortal

07:12Sitting next to you
07:14Watching all the dues you paid
07:16What you did for the business
07:18I got nothing but respect for you
07:21I'm here to say
07:22I appreciate the living hell
07:23Out of what you've done
07:24For this business
07:26Look at that
07:27Can somebody give
07:30Stone Cold Steve Austin
07:31A hell yeah

07:35I would love to stay out here
07:37And flap my gums
07:38All night long
07:39With Hulk Hogan
07:40But tonight is the night
07:42For all the WWE superstars
07:44To bring their asses out here
07:46And give every single thing they got
07:48Because everything that Hulk Hogan
07:50Proved in this ring
07:51Everything that Stone Cold
07:53Steve Austin
07:54Proved in this ring
07:56Tonight
07:59Is the night

09:51Well the Hulkster said
09:54There are going to be
09:54Some special moments
09:56This is going to be
09:57Hard to top right here
09:58It's like going back in time
10:00To Sky Dome
10:01Or to Philadelphia
10:03The Astro Dome
10:06Look at this
10:09I said earlier
10:13With Hulk and Stone Cold
10:15In the ring
10:15Is arguably
10:16Arguably the two most popular
10:18Without a doubt
10:19This is the three most popular
10:21Superstars in WWE history
10:22The Mount Rushmore
10:24Of sports entertainment
10:25Has just come to life
10:26At Wrestlemania 30
10:28It's the three most popular
10:58I can tell you this, when I'm on the WWE Network, I know my money works, and they're
11:08having a bit of action yet!
11:38You know, it is a true WrestleMania moment when all five of your senses are on fire, you
12:00hear the roar of the crowd, you see them standing on their feet, you taste it, you taste it,
12:06but you feel it, you sure as hell can smell it, cause finally, The Rock has come back to
12:14New Orleans!
12:22Which means finally, The Rock has come back to WrestleMania!
12:33By the way, which finally means, The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Immortal Hulk Hogan
12:38have finally come back to the Superdome!
12:43Yeah, let's get a Superdome chance!
12:50Hashtag Superdome!
12:51When I look across this ring, I don't see just two of the biggest legends of all time, no, no, no, no!
12:57When I look across this ring, I don't see just two of the biggest legends of all time, no, no, no, no!
13:14When I look across this ring, I see my good buddy, Stone Cold Steve Austin, I see my childhood hero, The Immortal Hulk Hogan, and without a shadow of a doubt, and I mean this from the heart, I look across this ring and I see without question the two biggest names in the history of the WWE!
13:19I've had the honor in the WWE!
13:48I've had the honor and the privilege of facing you both at Wrestlemania.
13:53You've impacted my career. We've done it all.
13:56We've headlined WrestleManias, we've electrified, we broke records.
13:59You've had an incredible impact on The Rock's career.
14:02But you've also had an incredible impact on everyone in the locker room.
14:06Because tonight, a man's gonna come out here
14:09and he's gonna fight in the name of hustle, loyalty and respect.
14:13But...
14:18But, but, that man doesn't come out here and fight in the name of hustle, loyalty and respect.
14:26Unless someone 29 years ago vowed to say their prayers and eat their vitamins, brother.
14:32Tonight, tonight a man is gonna come out here and he's gonna rise against the authority.
14:41But that doesn't... Yeah!
14:43Yes, yes, yes! That doesn't happen.
14:59Unless a certain bald-headed SOB had the guts to not only cross the boss, but whip his candy ass.
15:06And those are facts. Those are facts. And here's another fact.
15:14You guys ever wonder why so many young WWE fans have birthdays exactly nine months after Wrestlemania?
15:22I'll tell you why.
15:26Cause their parents were at home and they were watching in awe.
15:29Feeling full of passion and electricity.
15:31Because they were watching.
15:32The jabroni beating.
15:33Pie eating.
15:34Trailblazing.
15:35Eyebrow raising.
15:36The rocks in the ring.
15:37No ifs, ands or maybes.
15:38Come on, mama, we got no choice but to start making rock babies.
15:42Yeah, just wait till January. A lot of rock babies running around here.
16:01But The Rock's not done. This is Wrestlemania. It's in its 30th ear.
16:06So rip off your t-shirt. Open up some beer.
16:10We got Piper. We got Heenan. The list keeps growing. Steamboat and Savage. Brett versus Owen.
16:15We got Baptista. King Kong Bundy. Shawn Michaels and Sheamus.
16:19If they fought the three of us, we'd stick our boots right up their anus.
16:25This is Wrestlemania. It's an honor for me to be in the ring in front of you two.
16:30It is an honor for me to be in the ring in front of you.
16:33The WWE Universe. The world. The world is looking.
16:38It's boots to asses time.
16:41If you submit what The Rock is cooking.
16:49And on that note, and that's the bottom line, cause Stone Cold said so.
17:00So, what you gonna do brothers, when Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Wrestlemania 30, and the Superdome run wild on you brother.
17:16Oh man. What an incredible moment.
17:20Perhaps one of the greatest Wrestlemania moments of all time.
17:27My life is complete.
17:31I see it all.
17:32The celebration is just beginning.
17:35Well, it's time for a toast to Wrestlemania 30.
17:48Anywhere close to Bourbon Street, why not?
17:54Get your Instagram accounts ready folks.
17:56Look at that.
17:57That is a once in a lifetime picture right there.
