Rock.. alright. I assume you're talking about the singularity that destabalized and released all the matter and energy in the Universe.
Answer is, we don't know. Plain as that. Maybe it came out of a previous Universe. Maybe the Universe we know is actually the result of a fractured previous universe that split it's dimentions into two or more co-existing Universes. For all we know, there are a limitless number of Universes out there that can be connected. Superstring theory tells us that maybe when the 'Membranes' collide, matter is created within the membrane and a Universe is born.
Hell, maybe that guy's right and God put it there.
But the point is that we don't know for sure and not knowing isn't a good enough reason to simply say 'God did it' and stop thinking about it. Because for all they know, God DID do it and he wants us to figure out how.
Now.. not to be assumptionative, but a lot of people ask that question to try to prove to all of us sceintific types that God had to have done it.
The problem with this argument is that the point it makes is that 'How can matter come out of nothing?' while completely ignoring the fact that they're contending that not only did matter come out of nothing, but it some how formed intelligence out of nothing and started being able to create matter out of nothing.
So.. if matter the sponatnious creation of the Universe, by means we cannot even hope to fathom at this point, is something the religious wish us to believe is impossible.. why do they think we should believe something many levels of magnitude of greater complexity sprang from nothing?
The argument is sheer lunacy and completely self-defeating.

The Big Bang theory does not contain anything about a rock. If the theory is correct, there were no rocks for many billions of years after that event occurred.

What rock? A the time of the big bang there was no rock. Even at the Planck time there was no rock. Millions of years passed before the first rock appeared.

The rock would be the primordial egg that is postulated by a common conception of the big bang.
The primordial egg has flaws that make it hard to swallow.
It would require some where to be before it blew up.
There would also need to be a time trigger that would tell it when to explode.
With time and space non existent it would have a hard time deciding what to do

the rock from the big bang is obviously in your skull

What rock? To say you that misunderstand the theory would be an understatement.
