"Vince McMahon, I'm gonna beat your ass all night long"

Steve Austin: "[reisst Interviewer Michael Cole das Mikro aus der Hand] Before we talk about the Royal Rumble... [Austin guckt ins Publikum und dieses jubelt] Before we talk about the Royal Rumble, let's go back a couple of weeks to Monday Night RAW when in this very ring-- The look of Vince McMahon's face when he damn near pissed his pants, when Mankind beat The Rock fair and square 1-2-3 right in the middle of this ring to become the World Wrestling Federation champion. And I give Mick Foley credit, because he is one tough bastard. But also as far as you concern Mankind, there is good news and there is bad news. The good news is that you're a deserving and respected World Wrestling Federation champion. The bad news, Mick Foley, is when the bell rings to start the match at WrestleMania, you'll be in this corner [zeigt auf eine der Ringecken], there will be a referee somewhere around here and over in this corner [geht in die Ringecke], the son of a bitch that's gonna be right here is Stone Cold Steve Austin. Now going there, going into the Royal Rumble, no one knows better than Steve Austin that could be my last opportunity at a title shot here in the World Wrestling Federation, because Vince McMahon drew Steve Austin as man number one in the Royal Rumble. And on top of that put a $100.000 bounty on my head, which means every son of a bitch who comes through there [zeigt auf den Entrance Bereich] and comes in this ring is gonna be looking to throw Steve Austin's ass over the top rope, but AHAH, OH NO. THERE AIN'T NO WAY THAT THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN.

Vince, you thought you're some kind of mastermind when you made yourself the thirtieth man in the Royal Rumble. Oh no, that came back and bit you on your ass, when commissioner Shawn Michaels made you man number two in the Royal Rumble. So thinking about this for the last week I'll ask you people the same two questions I been asking myself. If you want me to beat Vince McMahon's ass all night long, gimme a 'Hell Yeah'. ['Hell Yeah'] The other question is: If you want me to win the Royal Rumble, gimme another 'Hell Yeah'. ['Hell Yeah'] That's exactly what I thought. So I say this: Vince McMahon, I'm gonna beat your ass all night long. On top of that I will win the Royal Rumble and when all the smoke is cleared and the last son of a bitch has been set flyin' over these top ropes [zeigt auf die obersten Ringseile], when the smoke is clear, Vince, you will know that Austin 3:16 says: 'I just whipped your ass'."
