Taker showed up and said no one will control him or tell him where to go, then he addressed returning tonight to the place where his streak ended at Wrestlemania XXX. He said that he dug 29 holes for 29 bodies, and after he wins at the Rumble, he will return to the main event of Wrestlemania. Taker concluded his address by saying if anyone stands in his way, they will rest… in… peace.
