I dont see why they have to force the fans one way or the other.

The Rock is The Rock, heel or face, he's the same guy, and he's going to act like a jerk to everyone and fans are going to respond how they will. You look at Monday and he had the crowd in the palm of his hand. Now, will that reaction stay if he's on TV for a few weeks, maybe, maybe not.

My feeling is that they should just pick an opponent for him, and just let the fans decide who they want to cheer for. If for example its Cena, and the fans side with Rock, thats fine, all they have to do is have Rock do a handshake after Cena beats him and they are both babyafaces. Its really not that tough.

Ive said this in other posts, but I dont need to see him against HHH or Foley, those fueds have been done to death. HBK is interesting, but I dont think its any kind of draw. Cena to me makes the most sense (as well as Randy but apparently his dance card has been filled), but the rumour is that wont be happening. Rock was right there's nothing really for him to come back to, but having him on the show in any capacity is a good thing.
