WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin also gave a shout-out to the superstars who performed before him and said that it was tough to follow the exceptional matches that featured on the first day. He ended his statement with a heartfelt message for the fans as he signed off in his trademark style.
“You love the crowd, and the guys and girls before me had so many great matches. It’s really hard to follow that, but you live and die by that crowd, and this crowd is so faithful. So rambunctious, they are behind everything you do. So, I give a shout-out to the WWE Superstars that worked before me and the ones working tomorrow night. But I give the biggest shout-out to the crowd because I never expected to be able to headline a WrestleMania at this day and time. It’s all about the WWE Universe. Thank you, and you take care, because that’s the bottom line because we said so.”
