The Rock appearance confirmed for WrestleMania

If Rock had little or no charisma he would be considered a terrible wrestler by most. I'll be the first to admit that he had charisma, more than almost any other wrestler ever, but he was not a good wrestler by any means.

The only reason he had decent matches was because he had the charisma to cancel out the shittyness, and he worked with people who accentuated his strengths. That doesn't take away from the fact he was all show and didn't bring much wrestling-wise.

And before you say "you don't need to be a Chris Benoit in the ring to be considered good", I use Triple H as the yardstick for a realistic, modern view of a 'good' wrestler.
