Was The Rock Better as a face or a heel?
 
Poll to follow. Please take this poll seriously, for I am going to publish it in my latest blog, which is crossrined by every major wrestling publication on the planet.

He was more of an Anti-hero than the typical do gooder face and people liked that about him but once he turned genuine heel it was something special so I would have to say he was a pretty good face but an even greater heel.

heel

that's what the root of the Rocky character really was (not counting blue chipper Rocky)

The Naitch 03-02-2008 04:03 PM

add a vote for heel, since I wasted my vote on Shadow is gay

The Naitch 03-02-2008 04:04 PM

also, what is up with RDD making a wrestling forum thread? :wtf:

Mr. JL 03-02-2008 04:21 PM

I loved Hollywood Rock in 2003.

St. Jimmy 03-02-2008 04:25 PM

Heel. Hollywood Rock was the man. Including that great heel theme music that kept you waiting.

Lock Jaw 03-02-2008 05:06 PM

Heel. He's just allowed to be much more creative when he's a heel, because he's not confined to saying ALL of his catchphrases every time.

Testicle 03-02-2008 11:56 PM

The most hated pro-wrestler ever circa 1997 and 1998.

I think I'll go with heel.

Have you ever heard another wrestler get the fans to chant for his death. The reactions the guy would get were unbelieveable.

The shit he did with the nation was amazing and his heel turn in 2003 was fantasitic.

SammyG 03-03-2008 11:48 AM

Heel Rocky is awesome.

Heel Rock by a long shot.

Londoner 03-03-2008 07:46 PM

Tbh, i thought he was great as both face and heel.

Blue Demon 03-03-2008 07:48 PM

Heel Rocky was the best

Rock was at his best as a heel. You literally hated the guy.

I really don't have much else to add except:

Die, Rocky, die.

Destor 03-05-2008 09:32 PM

Easily one of my least favorite faces of all time.

And as a heel...?

Renaissance man 03-06-2008 01:26 PM

Remember the Rock show?! aaah! The Phily fans wanted to kill him!

wwe2222 03-06-2008 03:25 PM

I never got to see Hollywood Rock in 2003. I went back and watched some promos last night and his heelness was on a different level than in the late 90s. Even though he still used the same trademarks, the way he spoke, the way he looked, and the way he acted were different than previous Rock's. It was awesome. Listen to Sacramento booing him when he sings "Leaving Sacramento".

pure awesomeness.

Stickman 03-06-2008 03:38 PM

Either way the man was the best.

Goes with out saying

Porcupine 03-06-2008 07:27 PM

I much preferred Rock as a heel, especially his last heel run.

I hated Rock for the majority of his face run. Thought his jokes were never funny and dumb.
