The People's Podium
I had a thought...hypothetical.
I was just thinking about The Rock's triumphant return, and the promo that he delivered afterwards. During that promo, he delivered one line in particular that perplexed a lot of people. He stated that he was back and never leaving. Hmm. Well, the obvious answer to such a statement is that it's nothing more than pandering to the fans. But, could it technically hold true? As we know, there is still "The Anonymous Raw GM." In theory, could The Rock ultimately be revealed as the mysterious GM, and be "permanently" appointed as the GM of Raw? In doing so, they would be able to have "The Rock" be a part of weekly WWE television without actually being there. Creative could write messages and orders "in the style of" The Rock. In essence, you'd be including a character in the weekly storyline, without being shown on screen. Then, they could have him show up once or twice a year. By doing so, they would make periodic appearances into a permenant role. Of course, nothing is permanent in wrestling, and once the novelty wore off, it would get shitcanned. But in theory, could it work? Could The Rock's name and involvement be utilized in an off-screen role, as a weekly fixture on Raw? As it is, there has been much discussion about who or what would be the kayfabe authority figure on the product once Vince isn't. Discuss. |
