Offical RAW Thread for 02/14/11 - Guest Hosts, Battlepods and Mr. King's Road to Glory

[Supreme Olajuwon]

ok that was fucking GAY



HE JUST GOT SUPERPLEXED

[ClockShot]

That match was rather quick.

This host must be really important to have this much time set aside.

[Londoner]

Starting to wonder if they've fooled us about the announcement. Cunts.

[Londoner]

do. not. fucking. end it now.

[RawRocks]

I actually love the Cena/Orton combo vs Nexus

[Swish]

I'd mark if HHH came out

[ClockShot]

She got legs....

[Londoner]

if its not the rock this'll be a huge let down.

[RawRocks]

WTF

[Providence Peep]

Here come Steph and Trips

[Savio]

Awesome Kong?

[The Gold Standard]

I am disappointed

[RawRocks]

Is that Stephanie?

[LuigiD]

great..some lame ass broad. I want the Rock dammit!

[The Gold Standard]

It is probably Steph and Trips. Honestly since it is not The Rock, I am upset.

[parkmania]

It's Steph to introduce her hubbie.

[DrCrawford]

maybe its lillian? to introduce the rock?

[Fignuts]

Might just be steph to announce the host.

[Juan]

Gail Kim is the WM guest host.

[ace3025]

It's Dixie Carter!

[Swish]

It's Stephine calling out HHH think about it. Why else would that girl from the film be on?
HHH Guest hosts would his film become a lot more popular

[The Gold Standard]

What a set up.

[Londoner]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

[dronepool]

OH SHIT!!!

[RawRocks]

FUCK YES!

[Fignuts]

NICE

[Juan]

:D:D:D:D:D::D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[jerichoholicninja]

TPWW Explodes!!!

[The Gold Standard]

[parkmania]

Who was the chick in the limo then?

[Fignuts]

Heyman is marking out like a little girl.

[Juan]

Got chills. This is fucking awesome

[Volare]

[Loose Cannon]

IF YA SMELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL FUCK YES

[HeartBreakMan2k]

HOLY SHIT!!!!!! WHOOOOOO!

[Londoner]

[parkmania]

Is everyone digging the new remix?

[Savio]

rock is a chick?

[ClockShot]

Hey it's The Rock.

With lousy music.

[LuigiD]

OH FUCK! YES!
If you live in Tampa Bay, contact me. You are getting a free beer tonight.

[jkman61494]

Wow they even re-did his theme.

There's no way he's here for more than just WM...Is there?

Seeing that he does have a movie coming out April 29th that has a potential to be big, perhaps this might be a gig to Memorial day or something?

[Loose Cannon]

Fucking A. was so hoping for an IF YA SMELLLLL to hit :)

[parkmania]

So maybe Cena DOESN'T win the Elimination Chamber, and issues a challenge to Rock instead...

[AJ]

Mark out moment! :D

[CSL]

Finally The Rock has come back

Home 2/1
Town name 4/1
WrestleMania 8/1
Heels it up 50/1

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>if you didn't mark out upon hearing IF YA SMELLLLLLLL, you should quit watching wrestling</font>

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Holy shit, goosebumps...

[RawRocks]

GOOOOOOOSE BUMPS!

[Londoner]

*marks out for dwayne*

[CSL]

<font color=goldenrod>if you didn't mark out upon hearing IF YA SMELLLLLLLL, you should quit watching wrestling</font>

Despite the fact people have been expecting it to be him all week?

[LuigiD]

OH FUCK! YES!
If you live in Tampa Bay, contact me. You are getting a free beer tonight.
"I am back because of you"
My heart just fucking melted. I am about to cry.

[Emperor Smeat]

:D The Rock.

[Londoner]

NEVER EVER GOING AWAY!! NEXT GM THE ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BigCrippyZ]

This is incredible!

[Juan]

Jesus fucking Christ. I don't even have the words right now

[Innovator]

John Cena is crying in the back somewhere

[jkman61494]

Ok, the crowd and half of TPWW probably just took that as a "I'm coming back to the WWE" moment... Sorry to disappoint you though.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Despite the fact people have been expecting it to be him all week?

Yes, even despite that.

[Volare]

God I love an old school mark out moment!!

[Fignuts]

Why does that make it any less of a mark out moment, csl?

It's still the rock.

[jkman61494]

I got to say though, John Cena doesn't hold a damn candle to the Rock, and this is uber-PG Rock, not 1999 Rock.

[ClockShot]

My brother just walked in the door and said "the fuck? THE ROCK!"

[AJHayes]

I believe I am either:

A) having the longest recorded orgasm in the history of mankind

Or

B) having a heart attack and need to go to the hospital

[RawRocks]

the censors :lol:

[Fignuts]

lol censoring ass. come on. Mark Henry's theme has ass in it.

[Londoner]

LAY THE SMACK DOWN ON....JUSTIN FUCKIN BIEBER! THANKS.

[PorkSoda]

The Rock can't say ass! The WWE bleeped out the word ass!

[The Gold Standard]

Rock v Taker!!

That is what I want now.

[jkman61494]

So what's the vegas odds now of who eats a Rock Bottom.

Miz?
Del Rio?
Barrett?
Punk?

ALL OF THEM?!

[Fignuts]

lol cole

[ClockShot]

........Know your role, Cole.

[Volare]

Oh please god Rock Bottom Cole.

[RawRocks]

LOL COLE, THE GM & THE ROCK... FUCKING AWESOME

[Londoner]

Was he on about....HBK?!

[Loose Cannon]

Rock stealing the show. :love:

[The Gold Standard]

Rock v Taker!!

That is what I want now.

[jkman61494]

I have a feeling USA network is more than OK letting this run until about ooohhh...11:45?

[Fignuts]

Rock punking out the GM.

Phenomenal.

[Juan]

Good god this is incredible

[Loose Cannon]

hahahahahaha

[The Gold Standard]

I like the plug in the bottom left hand corner.

[Londoner]

:D :D :D

[ClockShot]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Swish]

The Rock is the GM calling it

[Loose Cannon]

lol drunk hobit

[Fignuts]

lol not even bothering to censor anymore.

[RawRocks]

FUCKING AMAZING

[The Gold Standard]

The Rock has been gone for too long.

[Juan]

John Cena

[Loose Cannon]

bye John

[blak23]

John Cena

[Londoner]

hmmmmmmmm

[The Gold Standard]

CENA V ROCK?

HOLY SHIT!!!

[jkman61494]

Ok...This might be the best Raw I've seen in a long LONG time.

The Bryan match was awesome.
The Morrison match was great.

And this is absolutely amazing. This is how you can reminisce about the past, and also enjoy the present. This is ridiculously great!

Good god, I was only a junior in college the last time this guy was on Raw.

[Londoner]

CENA SUCKS chants!

too right rock.

[BigCrippyZ]

No one can control a crowd like The Rock!

[Innovator]

Rock comes back and calls out Cena....this is Christmas?

[Londoner]

oh my freaking god hahahahaha

[DrCrawford]

holy shit cena vs rock would be amazing

morrison vs miz

taker and sting

id be in heaven

[SOCCER LEGS]

lol cena bout to get buried

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Holy shit... is he actually going to wrestle?!?!?!

[AJ]

This is pretty epic! :D :D :D

[Fignuts]

oh god this is great

[Loose Cannon]

literally jerking off right now

[Juan]

lollllllll fruity pebbles

[ClockShot]

Finally, SuperCena's Kryptonite has landed on earth.

[blak23]

Raw is running extra long

[jkman61494]

WOW!!!! Did he seriously just punk out Cena? Holy shizzzznit!!!

[PorkSoda]

THIS IS BETTER THAN FRUITY PEBBLES!!!

[KIRA]

I LOVE THIS MAN!

[Londoner]

CANT FUCKING WAIT FOR MANIA.

[Haze]

God I missed this man!

[DrCrawford]

hahaha at those bitter kids wearing cena shirts

[Innovator]

I filled the cup 10 minutes ago.

[Loose Cannon]

lollllll the Cena kids are boooing him. awesome

[parkmania]

The People's Eyebrow doesn't have quite the same impact without a hairline to go with it.

[Londoner]

Can't believe what i just saw.

[TheAdamEvansFan]

FUCK YEA FUCK YEA FUCK YEA


HEEL TURN FOR CENA LETS DO THIS SHIT



IM FUCKING DYING!

GOOD BYE PG!


IT'S GAME TIME FOR THE ROCK AND HIS PEOPLE!

[The Gold Standard]

Best 20 minutes of WWE in a long time.

[KIRA]

Rock caused an overload

[Loose Cannon]

fucking incredible

[The Gold Standard]

Anyone else want to hear what the GM had to say?

[TheAdamEvansFan]

I THINK I JUST GOT THE COPS CALLED ON ME FROM YELLING SO MUCH IN PRAISE!


GOOD BYE TNA... AFTERTHOUGHT!

THE ROCK HAS COME HOME!

HE'S A GOD ON THE MIC!

[TheAdamEvansFan]

Ok so now Sting, Jericho, Undertaker, and Triple H have to come to WWE by wrestlemania, what's Christians status?

[KIRA]

He was right though no person should be wearing that much godamn purple unless they play for the vikings

[jkman61494]

So if the overrun ratings come out as epic as we can hope, how much money do you think Vinnie Mac shells out to have the Rock and BEG HIM to sign a two year deal to have he, HHH and Taker give some rubs on the youngens as they can all bow out and close out the Attitude WWE era??

[Swish]

That entrance for The Rock was fucking awesome...

I think wwe's ratings just went through the roof.

[parkmania]

I know at least one person I'm NOT saying will win the Raw EC match for Tipsters.

[McLegend]

That was incredible.

[TheAdamEvansFan]

Rocks not going anywhere, he wouldn't lie to the fans, least not for a few years...

He will PROBABLY DO WWE FILMS to elevate them.


That'd be intense.

Peoples Champ vs Peoples Champ... Holy shit.. and all the swearing, ATTITUDE ERA ENGAGED, RETURNED, AND BACK BABY!

It's great, Beiber and Rock at Wrestlemania, you have a divide, Attitude Era Peoples Champ Rock vs Cena Beiber Peoples Champ holy epicness.

[CSL]

Forums are infuriating on a Monday

[dronepool]

I seriously have not laughed like this in a while. The Rock is the fucking man.

[Swish]

So if the overrun ratings come out as epic as we can hope, how much money do you think Vinnie Mac shells out to have the Rock and BEG HIM to sign a two year deal to have he, HHH and Taker give some rubs on the youngens as they can all bow out and close out the Attitude WWE era??

The Rock has just confirmed he is their to stay..

[TheAdamEvansFan]

I loved how he put cole down like his dog, or how he made fun of Cena!


Now we just need Jericho back!

[SOCCER LEGS]

The Rock has just confirmed he is their to stay..

how so?

[MoFo]

fap fap fap fap fap

ROCKY ROCKY ROCKY

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I'm quite certain that Rock isn't wrestling. He dropped Miz' name too so Cena/Miz with Rock as ref feels likely. Then again that would mean HBK isn't a special ref for Taker/HHH, 2 big special refs would be overkill.

We'll know Sunday. A Cena loss means him vs. The Rock is a done deal. A win means the ref idea. Either way it will rule.</font>

[jkman61494]

The Rock has just confirmed he is their to stay..

Is this from his chat room?

There are a lot of ways this can be taken. It could be he's their to stay as in, come on every 4 months and say hi and go away...

Or did he actually say he's back full time??

[JimmyMess]

Who just walks in after 7 years and cuts the best promo in... 7 years.... ? the fucking ROCK thats who!

[Domino]

I missed the beginning of his return, can anyone post?

[TheAdamEvansFan]

He said he was HOME FOR GOOD and that he was never leaving again.


I see The Rock making movies through WWE Films and helping elevate their promotion.

The Rock and young wrestlers would make good movies like Miz, Morrison, etc..

[Swish]

I'm convinced The Rock is a Shapeshifter

[KIRA]

Forums are infuriating on a Monday

And how conclusion jumping owns the night

[TheAdamEvansFan]

The Rock and his Attitude Era vs Cena and his PG. MARK OUT INTERNET WORLD
PEOPLES CHAMPION OF YESTERDAY VS PEOPLES CHAMPION OF TODAY
It's like Rock vs Austin all over again. This time, the older people are on The Rocks team.

Now can ya dig that?

[Sycophant]

So...just when I didn't think I could mark out anymore from The Rock showing up...he calls out Cena on how lame he is. I have never been so happy to live within 1 hour of Atlanta...

[KIRA]

TheAdamEvansFan dude you need to calm the fuck down.

[DInsaneOne]

what a valentines day....the rock back in wwe!!!

[El Fangel]

IF YOU SMELL!

[Rock Bottom]

Man this is really weird. First Raw I watch in a few months and it has The Rock in it.

Even more to my surprise he started burying Cena on the mic a little and got a few Cena sucks chants.

Wow. Pretty neat.

[El Fangel]

WHAT THE ROCK...

[El Fangel]

IS...

[El Fangel]

COOKIN'

[BigCrippyZ]

Man, The Rock took everyone to promo and electrifying school tonight. No one on the roster got the consistent pops that Rock got tonight.

[Snowden]

Single greatest moment in the WWE in the last couple of years, EASY.

[Volare]

That was a pretty sick intro for him too. Loved the vamped up theme btw.

[TazFTW86]

This raw ending was fuckin great! Marked out like Striker did at the Rumble w/ Booker T!! Diesel, Booker, Rock, Austin , HBK, Taker and Triple H returnin this year, fuckin sweat!

[glanville6]

Haven't enjoyed anything this much since HBK and Bret hugging in the ring last year

[ron the dial]

still marking out. god i love wrestling.

[Rock Bottom]

The intro was pretty good because of who came out. That was pretty neat the way they showed some white chick in high heels and I was fully expecting it to be something retarded like some country singer or something.

He did say he was there to stay, I wonder what the hell he's talking about. I have a lot of gay respect for The Rock and this will force me to watch this crap for a while if he sticks around.

[jkman61494]

A lot of credit has to go out to the crowd in Anaheim. That's one of the better crowds I have HEARD in a long time. They were really up for the Bryan/Miz match and of course went INSANE tonight for The Rock.

[J Dogg Funk]

Someone please find or post the You Tube link. Without a doubt - one of the greatest moments in WWE history is when The Rock called John Cena a damn bowl of Fruity Pebbles.

[Londoner]

Shakyness still hasnt fully stopped, just had to do some bits of works to calm myself, doubt i'll be sleeping,lol. Just can't bloody wait for WM. Was already looking forward to the HBK HOF moment but now the rock all night along with the cena feud, and much more and hopefully Del Rio/Edge to finish it off with a classic, this is gonna be a huge show!

[BigCrippyZ]

Single greatest moment in the WWE in the last couple of years, EASY.

Damn right man! I'm still marking out and re-watching Rock's promo on my DVR.

[rob11]

Link to the video. Watch before it's taken down!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv4ENz79YIg

[Corndad]

One of the best Raws in a long long time. The Miz/Bryan match was amazing. Someone tell me now Bryan isn't freakin over. He and Miz had the crowd the entire match.

Morrison was on his game tonight too. Loved the intensity his character showed tonight.

The Rock. What else can you say. He still freakin has it. I seriously wish Mania was available to buy tonight I would buy it right now no questions asked just after that promo. Amazing. Surprised they went the Cena route but so excited they did. Could set up something ridiculous.

[Sycophant]

Also safe to say that we have a new candidate in the loudest pop ever heard in wrestling thread. That was unbelievable! Not to mention that The Rock broke the website...

[Jura]

Rocks not going anywhere, he wouldn't lie to the fans, least not for a few years...

He will PROBABLY DO WWE FILMS to elevate them.


That'd be intense.

Peoples Champ vs Peoples Champ... Holy shit.. and all the swearing, ATTITUDE ERA ENGAGED, RETURNED, AND BACK BABY!

The Rock and young wrestlers would make good movies like Miz, Morrison, etc..

He said he was never going away. I'm pretty sure that means he'll always be around and that he'll never stop making appearances but I don't think he's talking about coming back to wrestle or staying around.

[Sycophant]

Also, I'm so pumped at the opportunity that this creates for a much needed
Cena heel turn...

[Londoner]

Link to the video. Watch before it's taken down!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv4ENz79YIg

Sadly not the whole promo but still great. My mind is blown.

[rob11]

The whole promo should be up soon. Video is really slow in coming in.
That pop was one of the loudest ever. Truly amazing.

[TheAdamEvansFan]

The Rock appeared live on tonight's show and received a major ovation from the crowd. The Rock said that he has finally returned home and wasn't back for the money or to promote a movie, but he was back for the fans. He thanked the fans and said he would never, ever be going away.

[Lock Jaw]

I'm still marking out, bro!

[JimmyMess]

<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xkTDLM6PM8w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

The Rock took Michael Cole from "heel commentator" to little bitch jabroni in 20 minutes.

[Mr. Pierre]

Really fun show tonight :y:

-Pleasant surprise with Punk going over Cena, but I guess this guarantees that Cena eliminates Punk on Sunday. Oh well. Punk getting a win over Cena shocked me.

-Miz/Bryan was a pretty good match.

-Orton continues to kick Sheamus' ass constantly. They always put on good matches, but they constantly remind us that Sheamus is a step below main event talent in the booker's eyes.

-Can't wait to see Taker next week. He's the best, I don't care what anyone says.

-THE ROCK!!! Amazing! I loved every minute of it! Can't wait to see him at Mania.

[J Dogg Funk]

Ive watched it on my DVR 5 time already. Cant get enough!!!

[BigCrippyZ]

I love how Ryan Clark posted earlier today that the WM guest host would be announced tonight but was not going to appear. Now he's taken down all of the posts where he said the guest host wouldn't appear. :lol:

[James Steele]

Vince McMahon might as well have mugged me and stolen my wallet. Triple H hasn't even come back yet... :drool:

[Nark Order]

Well, I've nutted in my pants a couple times this evening. Overall a good night.

[Londoner]

Ive watched it on my DVR 5 time already. Cant get enough!!!

Wish i bloody had sky plus for moments like this!

[James Steele]

Now, Vince needs to get his shit together and bring back his son-in-law...

THE FINAL BATTLE

[BigCrippyZ]

Vince McMahon might as well have mugged me and stolen my wallet. Triple H hasn't even come back yet... :drool:

Damn James, I can only imagine how you'll feel when Trips returns. The Rock is to me what H is to you, and for me, tonight was the best night of wrestling since 2003. I'm still marking out right now.

[Nark Order]

What? No. We've seen that.

[BigCrippyZ]

Now, Vince needs to get his shit together and bring back his son-in-law...

THE FINAL BATTLE

Rock/HHH feuds, promos and matches are some of my favorites, only behind Austin/Rock and Austin/Vince. As much as I would love to see Rock vs Cena, Rock vs HHH one more time would be epic too.

[James Steele]

I am just worried Cena will fuck up and ruin a potentially classic match like he did at WrestleMania 23.

[Nark Order]

What about when HHH and Orton fucked up the main event a couple years ago?

[BigCrippyZ]

What? No. We've seen that.

Well, I've fucked your mom before too, but just like Rock vs HHH, I'd pay for it again.

[James Steele]

What about when HHH and Orton fucked up the main event a couple years ago?

It was a good match, but horrible booking. I also sympathize with Triple H having to carry that overrated blue-chip sack of shit again.

[Londoner]

It was a shit match, James.

[James Steele]

It was a shit match, James.

It wasn't the quality you expect from the WrestleMania main event. I agree with that. I think WWE was stupid for doing the "Triple H gets DQd he loses the belt" stip as that match needed a lot of fucking violence and instead we got primal scream HHH and Orton doing the same shit he's been doing since he discovered a gimmick other than arrogant young punk.

lol

[MIZantine Empire]

AMEN to that! The guy has been loyal to, and worked hard for, the company since he got there and he deserves it. Plus now, with his mother's passing, it'd be appropriate.
doesnt exactly what you just said apply to mark henry? loyal to the wwe, never been world champ, and had a recent family tragedy..should they put that strap on him?

[MIZantine Empire]

I remember the days when USA Network would preempt Raw for the Dog Show and remember one year Raw started at 11pm ET due to it.
haha i remember that crap too..it used to irritate me that they wouldnt show raw cuz of a dog show. didnt they show them a couple times on like tuesday? or something like that because of the miniature Melinas running around?

[MIZantine Empire]

It is The Rock. If they are awaiting th arrival, it has to be him.
not to mention all the "rocky" chants that went on the entire raw. i purposely stayed away from tpww/forums to be legit surprised, to have charlie conway and his mighty ducks faithful ruin it for me :( oh well, i still marked out when the music hit

[MIZantine Empire]

Closet might be two Wrestlemania matches with Rock vs Hogan (crowd booed Rock) and Lesnar vs Goldberg (crowd hated both).
i have that rock v hogan wrestlemania downloaded on my comp..that match was soooo amazing. the crowd reactions at the entrance/match/ending are non stop goosebump inciting.

[Lock Jaw]

The way they did his entrance with the lights and the screens shutting down one at a time was pretty epic.

[MIZantine Empire]

Talk about piss break. Divas match.
my shorts went camping when eve did the "69" pin in natty, and natty had her face just absolutely buried in eves squack/turd cutter. glad i didnt take my usual divas piss break

[Juan]

<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5webrAZSBhY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[MIZantine Empire]

how so?
i think he meant when they zoomed in on the lumberjills and all we can hear was "are you ok?'' "yes i am ok, are you ok? tee hee"

[MIZantine Empire]

Michael Cole should be banned from calling any match involving The Miz.
yes, i agree with this..i love the miz, but micheal cole almost makes me turn the channel every time the miz is on. its just too much

[MIZantine Empire]

Bryan is a great talent but as was stated before they are not doing anything with him really right now
he is still US champ..and WWE doesnt seem like they wanna take it off him anytime soon..so how exactly are they doing nothing with him? he gets no reaction because his music is awful, and if his entrance was in smackdown vs raw it would be labeled "generic entrance 100" i dont see any charisma or personality really in the guy. the only positives are he is a pretty good in ring athlete, and he has payed his dues. but the sad truth is some people just dont have "it" and saidly, i would include Bryan in "some people"

[MIZantine Empire]

And picking her up and stuff. Just kinda....odd..
i lol'd when she dropped the chocolates all over the ring.

[MIZantine Empire]

He was right though no person should be wearing that much godamn purple unless they play for the vikings
or LSU, after all they have accomplished way more then the vikings ever will..

[MIZantine Empire]

The intro was pretty good because of who came out. That was pretty neat the way they showed some white chick in high heels and I was fully expecting it to be something retarded like some country singer or something.

He did say he was there to stay, I wonder what the hell he's talking about. I have a lot of gay respect for The Rock and this will force me to watch this crap for a while if he sticks around.
yea, i pretty much thought that the legs were a swerve..however it did make me want those legs wrapped around my neck at some point very soon!

[MIZantine Empire]

lol just saw the rock on family guy now, and got chills again

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

You heard him girls. Party's over.

If seeing the Rock impact Raw doesn't make 1 want 2 see WM27 then ur not a fan. Need 2 check ur pulse. Rock's performance was epic. Awesome. less than 5 seconds ago (http://twitter.com/JRsBBQ/status/37402717731164160) via txt (http://twitter.com/devices)

[DaVe]

yes sir it was

freaking epic

[JimmyMess]

In shutting up Michael Cole/Anonymous GM...

In owning John Cena.... he managed to bury the entire roster... but not bury in the sense that we mean "bury"

it was just accenting the fact that The Rock is BIGGER than WWE. It was absolutely fucking incredible. I got goosebumps watching him.

[XL]

Also safe to say that we have a new candidate in the loudest pop ever heard in wrestling thread. That was unbelievable! Not to mention that The Rock broke the website...
This website "breaks" on a daily basis.
He said he was never going away. I'm pretty sure that means he'll always be around and that he'll never stop making appearances but I don't think he's talking about coming back to wrestle or staying around.
My thoughts exactly.
What about when HHH and Orton fucked up the main event a couple years ago?
Well that was Orton's fault. Obviously.

If seeing the Rock impact Raw doesn't make 1 want 2 see WM27 then ur not a fan. Need 2 check ur pulse. Rock's performance was epic. Awesome. less than 5 seconds ago (http://twitter.com/JRsBBQ/status/37402717731164160) via txt (http://twitter.com/devices)
Jesus! Even JR is talking in text abbreviations :nono:.

Also, everybody hates the lines that Cena has to cut on people (I'm thinking CM Sucks here) yet is all over "Cena is like a bowl of Fruity Pebbles"? Really?

[JimmyMess]

Well it was "big fat bowl of fruity pebbles" ahahaha. Plus he chirped all his shirts. He just owned Rated PG... I haven't heard "ass" on WWE in like 2 years and Rock dropped it like 8 times lol.

Shows who won the "what can I say?" battle

As for the promo, it was good, I can't deny that.

However, it benefits from the fact that 1) it was the first in-ring appearance from him in SEVEN years. 2) He referenced internet stuff like the "issues" between him and Cena. 3) He attacked Cena - the guy that the IWC hates the most.

I guess Rocky was all about "cheap heat" back in the day, why would that change?

I dunno. Maybe if I hadn't just watched Raw after a night shift. And it hadn't bee ruined for me by asshole YouTube posters...Maybe I'd have enjoyed it more.

Well what other way would you garner heat/pops that isn't ...

1. playing to the crowd?
2. talking trash to your opponent/enemy/etc?
3. Dropping your catchphrases?

I take "cheap heat" as when someone drops an f-bomb just for shock value, or whatever. Thats how Shawn Michaels refers to it and he's one of the best promo guys ever

[Autobahn]

still marking out. god i love wrestling.

Summed it up perfectly.

It's more specifically the first point. The whole "...has come back..." is cheap. As are the sing-along catchphrases I guess.

Plenty of people have cut incredible promos without resorting to those tactics. Dunno, I always took issue with The Rock's "by the numbers" promos. Never really "did it" for me.

There is more to a line than just the line itself...There is a big difference to how the Rock delivers a line and how Cena does

[Londoner]

^ So so true. I can see Cena(oh, see what i did there) always tries to do what The Rock does with the crowd but fails very very badly at it mostly. So glad he's back, fuckin ell, its been too long.

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

That was the best ending I've seen in months, I couldn't stop marking out last night that it was embarassing.

[Savio]

literally jerking off right nowlol calm down

Cena actually said 'ass' on Raw like 3 or 4 weeks ago.

[Loose Cannon]

In shutting up Michael Cole/Anonymous GM...

In owning John Cena.... he managed to bury the entire roster... but not bury in the sense that we mean "bury"

it was just accenting the fact that The Rock is BIGGER than WWE. It was absolutely fucking incredible. I got goosebumps watching him.

:y:

I'm not a Cena hater or anything, but for the last however many years, Cena has ripped apart everyone on the roster without the counterpart really every getting the chance to really bury Cena. I've been craving somebody to just come in and unload on Cena just one time. And fucking Rock comes in and does exactly that. Cena doesn't get the chance to come out and get his shit in on The Rock, which he would of got with everyone else.

It was amazing. It was almost like Rock was the spokesperson for every single fan of the Attitude era last night. And watching the little Cena fans booing and getting frustrated was incredible.

[Innovator]

LC's boner is still raging.

[bigslimjj]

What's up guys. I got piss drunk last night at the club and just woke up.I didn't catch wrestling. Anything good happen on raw last night?:D:D:D Just kidding...I saw it. Had to take aspirin till the ambulances got there. Was still almost as impressed with the ass whippin that Morrison gave nexus. Give him the title or GTFO.

[Providence Peep]

The way they did his entrance with the lights and the screens shutting down one at a time was pretty epic.

:yes:

you also forgot when mae young called laycool bitches and sluts..that was effin hilarious

[Providence Peep]

Shit. Just watched the entire promo again, and had tears in my eyes. God, life is good!

Many past and present WWE superstars wrote messages on Twitter following The Rock’s return to WWE on RAW. Here’s what the following people said about The Rock:

John Cena: "CeNation. Rock was in rare form tonight. It was great to see him enjoying himself out there. Even if it was at my expense. I’ve been Called alot worse. Just glad to see him back in action."

CM Punk: "Rock owes me fifty bucks for going 20 minutes past the hour, making me miss my valentines day reservations at Nobu."

Big Show: "Did anyone notice the chill bumps on Rocks arms as he gave his catch phrase? The Rock is back!"

Jim Ross: "Got 2 hand it 2 WWE…HBK in HOF, Austin on Tough Enough, Rock to host/star @ WM27…MUCH more on the way. Look out Atlanta!"

Val Venis: "I am just as happy as anyone else the Rock is back. As long as he sticks to the mic, we are good. Cuz his wrestling ability is questionable. Not hating on Rock. He is AWESOME on the mic. His charisma is unmatched. But lets be honest, Rock>Hardy & Venis>Rock! HONESTLY!"

Taz: "GREAT JOB by Rock! Miss having steaks with him & Dud’s after shows!!! Great times! 1 of the greatest of all times!!!"

Chris Jericho: "Congratulations to one of my favorite opponents and greatest rivals on returning to the WWE. The Rock is the BEST promo man of all time…"

Steve Austin: "It was great to see The Rock back on RAW tonight…helluva promo from an electrifying cat. Great stuff heading into Mania."

[Volare]

I love it, WWE has Rock, Austin, and Booker back, just not together. How long untill we see these guys cross paths?

[Jura]

Bitch ass response from Cena.

[Volare]

So I've replayed Rock's theme for the 6th time now.

[CSL]

Watched the video properly earlier today, put the first stream I came across on last night literally as Justin Roberts was in the ring and it was a bit shit/kept pausing etc so I didn't really 'experience' it. Was some pop he got. Seems he's been going mental with those rear squat glute injection crunches, he's almost Batista big. Can't say I blame him, no wellness in Hollywood. People I've never seen mention wrestling once on Facebook are raving about it so it's done it's job. I'm guessing he might make the odd appearance before Mania before riding off into the sunset until next time. Don't really know how you could walk away after that reaction, that's what it's all about.

[Jura]

You think he might make an appearance on SD? After all, it's The Rock's show.

Like I said earlier (think it was this thread), he is going to get bitten by the bug.

They need to put him on Raw, SD, NXT & Superstars.

Fuck, make a new show solely for Rock to cut promos.

[Lock Jaw]

Give him an interview segment ("Rock's Quarry" or something) on every single show.

[James Steele]

Rock's Quarry? Really?

Also, JBL's hat does remind me of Triple H's back.

Dunno. Tried to think of a terrible pun.

Probably actually call it The Smackdown Hotel or something like that.
