Opening Segment
The host of WrestleMania 30, Hulk Hogan opens up the pay-per-view! He was in the main event of the first ever WrestleMania, and 30 years later he’s the host. Hogan mistakenly says he is happy to be in the Silver Dome, but they are actually in the Super Dome. The crowd got on Hogan for that, but he is able to joke it off and say that he was thinking about when he body slammed Andre at WrestleMania 3. Broken glass is heard, and the Texas rattlesnake Stone Cold Steve Austin is making his way to the ring. Hogan and Austin in the same ring brother, face to face! Austin asks the crowd if they want him to open up a can of whoop a** on Hulk Hogan, and they give him a hell yeah! Austin says he respects Hogan for all he’s done for the business, and he won’t do that. Tonight’s not about Hogan or Austin, but it’s about the young talent in the locker room. “If you smell, what The Rock is cooking!” The Rock is at the SuperDome, and all 3 Icons are in the same ring. Thank you WWE! The Rock says that he is standing across from the 2 biggest names in wrestling history. He and Austin rib Hogan for his little Silver Dome slip up earlier, but Hogan is a good sport about it. The Rock says that Cena wouldn’t be wrestling tonight if it weren’t for Hulk Hogan 29 years ago. He also says that Daniel Bryan wouldn’t be rising against The Authority if it weren’t for the “bald headed SOB” Steve Austin. The segment ends with all 3 Icons saying there famous catch phrases, and Austin passes out beers for them to cheer to. What a moment for wrestling fans all over the world…Great job by Vince McMahon and the WWE.
After a video package, Stephanie McMahon is in the ring to announce the “King of Kings” Triple H. A spectacular entrance by The Game, complete with a King’s chair, crown and robe. Mania is really kicking it off right!
Singles Match – Winner Moves On To The Main Event
Daniel Bryan defeated Triple H (w/Stephanie McMahon) by pin fall (Running Knee). Post-match, Stephanie gets in the ring and starts slapping Daniel Bryan. Bryan laughs it off, but is attacked from behind by Triple H, and eventually takes a chair shot to his injured shoulder. Bryan will compete for the WWE Championship later tonight, but he looks to be pretty banged up.
6-Man Tag Team Match
The Shield defeated The New Age Outlaws & Kane by pin fall (Double-Triple Power Bomb).
Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal
The final 4 participants of the Battle Royal were: The Big Show, Cesaro, Alberto Del Rio & Sheamus. After Del Rio and Sheamus were eliminated together, The Big Show and Cesaro remained. Cesaro was able to pick up and body slam Big Show over the top rope! Very impressive ending, and The Big Show shook Cesaro’s hand afterwards in a sign of respect. Cesaro has his WrestleMania moment, and is presented with the Andre The Giant trophy. Looks like Cesaro’s face turn and big push is about to begin!
