đź“Ľ Sports Desk Flashback: April 24, 2000 RAW Promo
(The Rock, Big Show, Triple H)
Ed: “Before we wrap up, let’s revisit a moment from April 24, 2000 — a promo that defined an era.”
Gordon: “It was loud, chaotic, and full of attitude — the kind of segment that only that era could produce.”
What Happened?
- The Rock confronted Big Show and Triple H during the height of the McMahon‑Helmsley Regime storyline.
- Big Show bragged about eliminating The Rock at the Royal Rumble, insisting Rock’s feet hit the floor first.
- Rock fired back with trademark charisma, mocking Show’s claims and Triple H’s arrogance.
- Triple H tried to assert dominance, but the crowd was firmly behind Rock.
- The segment ended with escalating tension that set up future matches and storyline twists.
Why It Matters
It showcased three major personalities at their peak — Rock’s electricity, Show’s imposing presence, and Triple H’s smug authority — all colliding in a promo that helped define the Attitude Era’s chaotic energy.

Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley: “Last night, at the Royal Rumble…Triple H ONCE AGAIN proved to the world that he is in fact The Game when he defeated Cactus Jack at his own game – a brutal, bloody, barbaric Street Fight. The World Wrestling Federation – [“Slut!”] – the World Wrestling Federation championship should never have been defended in such a… demeaning matter, but Triple H, being the true fighting champion that he is sunk to Cactus Jack’s lowest low, and rose to the occasion, to remain…my champion – YOUR Champion – The Game, Triple H!”
Triple H: “Cactus Jack… I’m not out here to put you over… not by a long shot… but pal, you gotta be the most sadistic freak I’ve ever stepped into the ring with in my life. You brought it all to Madison Square Gadren – barbed wire, sharp metallic objects – every trick you had, you brought it to the Royal Rumble – and while I might have left a lot of things in Madison Square Garden – I left a piece of my leg, I left pints of my blood all over New York City…the one thing that I did NOT leave was the World Wrestling Federation championship – because as sadistic as you are, I was that much more sadistic; as bad as you are, I was that much badder!
Cactus Jack, last night, Madison Square Garden, the Royal Rumble… I went to a level I never went to in my life… and I liked it. And I stayed the man, I stayed The Game, I stayed the World Wrestling Federation champion. But I couldn’t help but notice last night – as I rolled out of the hospital in New York City – I couldn’t help but notice Cactus Jack rolling INTO the hospital in New York City, and it looked like you were gonna be there a whole hell of a lot longer than I was… so I wouldn’t expect to see Cactus Jack here tonight. Now… Anaheim, California – April the 2nd – ten weeks from now – Wrestle.. mania 2000! [“Rocky! Rocky!”]
Yeah, the Rock versus The Game. One on one – for the greatest prize in the World Wrestling Federation that there is. Rock, you’ve got ten weeks. Get your ass in the best possible shape you can be in, because I will be at the top of my game, and we will battle, and I WILL leave Anaheim…the man…”
[The Big Show interrupts.]
The Big Show: “You know, you’ve never given me a rematch. And you know why? Because if I were you, I wouldn’t want to face me again either. ‘Cause we all know, and you know, I don’t like you. And we ALL know what happens to people I don’t like. Now I’m out here because a crime has been committed. Last night at the Royal Rumble, I was ROBBED. Listen… I’m a nice guy. I am a nice guy – and I DON’T LIE. But last night at the Royal Rumble, yes, I did go over the top when I had Rocky on my shoulders, and everybody sittin’ in Madison Square Garden last night, and all the fans watching on pay-per-view… SAW ROCKY’S FEET HIT THE GROUND FIRST.
So in all actuality, I did win the Royal Rumble… but I was robbed. So what I’ve come out here, is I need to ask you – I need a favour. Yeah, I need a favour from you. If I can prove to you and to Stephanie and to all these fans beyond the shadow of a doubt, pure proof on film that Rocky’s feet did hit the mat first, you grant me a one-on-one match with the Rock – the People’s Champion. And the winner gets to go on to WrestleMania and face you, and there, I’ll get my rematch.”
Triple H: “Show me the proof and it’s yours.”
[The Rock interrupts.]
The Rock: “Finally, the Rock has come back to Philadelphia! Triple H, the Rock says this – seeing as he just won the Royal Rumble, it officially makes your days as a WWF Champion – numbered. Translation, at WrestleMania, the Rock is just gon’ kick your monkey ass. [“Rocky! Rocky!”]
Now, onto you. Seven feet, five hundred pounds of whinin’ bitchin’ moanin’ [jammernd] ‘Oh the Rock’s feet touched the ground first – well the Rock says it doesn’t MATTER if the Rock’s feet touched the ground first! The Rock says this, it doesn’t matter if the Rock’s feet touched the ground, it doesn’t matter where the Rock’s feet touched, the ground, the mat, or straight up your big fat candyass! This ain’t the NFL – there is no instant replay – the only thing that matters RIGHT NOW is the Rock has won the Royal Rumble, the Rock is going to WrestleMania, and the Rock stands before you, and you, and even you – the People’s Champion.”
Triple H: “You know, Show, seems that uh, you and I seem to have a little common problem. To be that jackass up there with the big ego – seems to be a common thorn in our sides. So I’ll tell ya what – tonight – you and I – we’re gonna team up – and we’re gonna get in the ring… against the Rock – and a partner of your choosing. That is, if – you can go in the back and find one of those – what do you call ’em, Rock, jabronies? – that you like to put down so much. If you can get one of those jabronies to pal up with you, be your friend, and tag with you, then you got yourself a deal. If not, if one of those jabronies WON’T tag with you – then you and I – we’re gonna have ourselves a little handicap match with the Rock.”
The Rock: “Well, the Rock says this – if there is someone in the back who wants to team with the Rock, then that’s fine… the Rock doesn’t need it, the Rock doesn’t want it. The Rock says this, against you and you, two on one against the Great One means this, is one way or the other, come hell or high water, bet your candyasses you will smell what the Rock is cookin’.”
🎙️ Sports Desk Closing
Ed: “So from Collision’s tournament fights to Dynamite’s title defenses, AEW delivered another packed week as All In approaches.”
