When was the first time he used them? When exactly did he change from Rocky Maivia to The Rock?

Videos would be appreciated.

He changed to 'The Rock' when he kicked Farooq out of the Nation and was leader.

First time he said 'if you smell what The Rock is cooking' was after he won the IC Title in an interview w/ Lilian Garcia, pretty sure he said that on his dvd anyway.

First time he said 'poontang pie' was on the 'This is yr life' segment w/ Mankind. Not sure about the rest.

This is a bit before he started calling himself "The Rock" but it was where his attitude started to change... I'll see if I can find more...

yeah when he was IC CHamp, and still in the middle of his "fight" with Farooq to be the leader, he was already sporting "The Rock" on his tights
