The biggest surprise of WrestleMania 31 came at the end of the third hour, when UFC champion Ronda Rousey showed up out of nowhere, joining The Rock in the center of the ring to beat the heck out of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.
Between John Cena’s triumph over Rusev and the match between Bray Wyatt and Undertaker, The Authority came to the ring to tell everyone just how great they are. Just as Triple H was telling the fans that he owns each and every one of them and that there was nothing they could do about it, The Rock’s music hit, and the Brahma Bull walked down to the ring.
The crowd wouldn’t even let Rock talk for nearly five minutes, chanting “Rocky! Rocky! Rocky!” even as Stephanie asked them to be quiet. Obviously, she didn’t help matters at all.
As if the crowd weren’t already on his side, Rock pointed out to everyone that he was born in the Bay Area before challenging Triple H to a fight. This led to a staredown, but not a match, of course. Triple H said he had nothing to prove to The Rock, to which Rock had a typical reply about his adversary lacking adult gonads. Steph slapped him in the face and told him to leave, leading to him walking around the ring for a bit … and finding Ronda Rousey.
She jumped into the ring with Rock, and Steph didn’t back down. She told Rousey to get out of her ring too, to which Rousey had the perfect reply: “Any ring I step into is mine. If you want me to leave, how about you make me?” Rock made a crude comment about Steph, and then, what we were all waiting for … FIGHT!
Rock and Trips went at it, then Rousey took down Triple H with a judo throw. Rowdy got her shots in on Steph too, and was compassionate enough to not break her arm.

With any luck, we’ll get a Rock-HHH match at WrestleMania 32. And if we’re reaaaaaaally lucky, a Rousey-Steph match.
