The Rock is currently scheduled to wrestle a match at WrestleMania 21.

- There is a rumor going around that Paul Heyman's dismissal from the writing team might have stemmed from being caught red-handed "not telling the truth." One source is under the impression the lie could have involved listening in on a RAW writer's call.

Other reasons for his dismissal include clashing with Stephanie and Vince, as well as leaving meetings and conference calls early.

- At press time, there actually is some internal discussion about an ECW revival PPV for 2005. The idea was reportedly communicated to Vince McMahon via RVD; many, including Jim Ross, liked the idea. However, Stephanie was deadset against the idea. After the DVD sold well, those in favor got some more leverage, and Heyman approached Vince in front of Stephanie to ask about the PPV. Even after that attempt to confront Stephanie about her rejection, she still shows little interest in the idea and it is not known if it will ever materialize.

RVD brought the idea to Vince?

*RVD walks into Vince's office*
RVD: Hey Vince, how about an ECW Revival PPV?
Vince: What th'.... Who the hell are you and how did you get in my office?
RVD: Duuuuude..... I'm Rob Van Dam.
Vince: .... How do you know my language?

So The Rock will be back for one freakin match at wrestlemania....why must they waste our wrestling space with him. Just let him go off and make his movies now. Im tired of him returning for one damn match a year.

the rock always comes back for wrestlemania, and then leaves right after

last year he was there for like 3 weeks including wrestlemania, it's ridiculous

in 2002 it wasn't that bad cuz he came for no way out and then stayed for backlash

in 2001 it was good cuz he was there for a long time.. but this time he's probably gonna show up the raw right before wrestlemania :nono:
