[Dorkchop]

Seeing Rock vs Jeff Hardy reminded me how awesome he was as "Hollywood" Rock in 2003.

I loved how he would sit up and clap after he did a Samoan drop.

ANY Rock is amazing. The Rock is the most amazing entertainer in the history of professional wrestling.

I hated the rock til 2003. Then I became an enormous mark. Someone find his backstage vignettes with hurricane.

lol, gold.

My favorite Rock was his heel in 98/early 99 and his face run (peak of stardom) from late 99-early 01

After that he went severely overboard and downhill with his schtick

Then he went back heel with the Hollywood Rock and that was back to basics and a good resurgance to end on.

[Rob]

Yeah he was awesome. Always was though.

[Hanso Amore]

The way he yells at the fans and he is like in the back when doing it, lol, awesome.

Hamburglar!

[Hanso Amore]

Also, I fucking hated the Hurricane.

[Hanso Amore]

I was in boot camp and basic training through all his heel ru, I never got to see ANY of this.

[Hanso Amore]

I also like how the rock would wear people's things, like the hurricane's cape, and austin's vest. He really knew what to do to get pops and get heat. Amazing.

[Hanso Amore]

The Rock MADE the Hurricane in 4 weeks.

They need to book like they did back then, so much better.

Also, how many different shirts do you hink Austin and the Rock have had? I would say about 50 for austin and 30 for the rock.

From his return in 2004. Hollywood Rock is even good as a face.

[FourFifty]

I :heart: The Hurricane!

[FourFifty]

And I :heart: Rosie! "I saw Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen :y: !"

[Hanso Amore]

Must have been fun for the Rock, coming back for one night only, kind of do what he wants.

This thread should be moved to Casual, as it has nothing to do with wrestling.

Har, har, all kidding aside, Hollywood Rock was quite simply the last good thing about WWE before the Era if Suck it's currently trapped in.
