Rock has ability to inspire those around him and inspire the wrestling fans anytime he comes back. Him coming back is a positive on the whole industry. In other words everyone quit bitching and enjoy something fucking awesome from WWE.

I just re-watched Rock's return and I don't know when the last time I saw that much consistent excitement and anticipation on the cheering faces of so many fans, especially fans over the age of 12, like there was last night during Rock's promo. All you Negative Nancy's out there, re-watch that shit and look at the folks in the crowd, when was the last time any one person was able to get a wrestling WWE crowd that worked up? IT'S INSANE! |

Best part of the entire promo wasn't even something Rock said. It was an audience shot of an 8 year old chanting the Rock's name, next to the 28 year old doing the same.

THAT'S what gave me chills as I watched last night, whenever they would cut to a kid who you KNOW never has seen The Rock wrestle, yet knows who he is, and you could see in their face that they were like "Whoa, this is a big deal".

Have any of you noticed the kid in Cena shirt giving the Rock thumbs down and booing?
It's right before he finishes with "is cooking". Kind of made me laugh. |

During his return promo, I thought to myself, and told Xero the following. "I'm pretty sure The Fraze just came like he was giving Rachael RoXXX his money shot just now."

I don't even care if it is a work Cena's response on twitter was pretty lame. I might be worried if I'm Vince that my current superstars can't hang with The Rock.

I just finished watching earlier and have not been on TPWW for weeks...
1) HOLY SHIT! 2) HOLY SHIT THE ROCK! 3) Noid said this: And for the record -- I can't see the WWE turning John Cena heel out of this, but I can definitely see The Rock as the Special Guest Referee in the WrestleMania main event. That was my thought exactly... Would be better to see The Rock Vs. Cena, but I don't think our dreams come true here on TPWW that often... 4) GOD DAMN THAT PROMO WAS LIKE BEING IN 1999/2000 ALL OVER AGAIN! 5) HOLY SHIT... FRUITY PEBBLES!!! |

Also, it's funny the reaction Rock got as if he wasn't seen for the longest time, but he did make that SD XX anniversary appearance in 2010. It doesn't helped that it was a taped Smackdown! satellite promo, but still.
And by PG crowd standards, (who don't go as apeshit like the crowd from the Attitude Era did) their reaction was pretty crazy. These days you seldom see the (PG) crowd jump out of their seats or cheer screaming on the top of their lungs, but last night they went nuts for The Rock. Also LOL @ the little chinese kid wearing the whole Cena shirt/hat/armband combo booing The Rock. Last edited by The Naitch; 02-16-2011 at 06:13 PM. |

I'm not saying that he needs to rap all the time, he just needs to revert back to his old heel persona that made him popular in the first place. He did a rap in 2005 against Christian and the fans marked out for that, nostalgia_style. Cena needs to find his inner heel and do the same on Rock. Cena has crazy potential to out do The Rock, provided that he's allowed to do so. Like the thread I made titled "John Cena needs to take more charge of his character"The closest thing to The Rock right now is CM Punk. Punk has his shit right. Maybe that's why Rock didn't take a shot at Punk (even after he dissed The Tooth Fairy on live TV) cuz he knew that he'd give him a run for his money Although I marked out last night, I noticed that Rock did his usual schtick. No fresh catchphrases. Hopefully in the upcoming weeks we see some new material. It's the usual..."The jabroni beating...pie eating...trailblazing...eyebrow raising....People's Champ THE ROCK...IF YA SMELLLALALALALALALOW what The Rock....is cooking." Rock was getting mad stale from late 2001 to the summer of 2002, but when he came back as a heel in early 2003, he had totally revamped his character and came up with new lines, new look, and a new attitude. I hope he does that again this time around. Also, the fact that he now has a revised theme song leads me to believe that he will be back for a while. I'm thinking atleast 3 months Last edited by The Naitch; 02-16-2011 at 06:26 PM. |

I'm thinking that Vince might even change his mind as to whom the annonymus GM will now be, throwing all previous plans out the window. Based on last night, I can see Rock being revealed as the annonymous RAW GM. It would be the perfect role for him. He doesn't have to wrestle a match, but he could hog all the TV time he wants
CUZ HE'S THE FUCKING G.O.A.T. And most importantly, this means no more Michael Cole answering the e-mails. I can stand his X-Pac heat anymore. He had his time, now get the fuck off my TV.

I look forward to more Rock/Cole moments. Especially if they reflect back on history.

We need Rock to get into disagreements with the GM
Then we need Jericho back as the GM Then we need Rock Vs. Jericho (feat. Cole) one every show for at least 10 minutes! |

This reminds me of when Rock was brought back prematurely as an emergency when Austin walked out on the company back in 2002. I love it how Rock legitimately expressed his anger towards Austin by telling him to "Get The F Out". Rock tells it like it is and isn't afraid to tell you what's up, just like how he owned Cena last night. Love it. That's why Rock is the fucking man. Pretty sure if he wanted to, he would've put Kevin Nash in his spot if he tried anything funny (based on that shoot interview he did while drunk with X-Pac. Rock was weary of Nash when he made his return in 2003, and didn't want Nash to start running shit backstage and taking his spot. Something on the lines of that. It's not too clear with me)
Rock ended up staying longer and I think he was rewarded the Undisputed title because of this (I'm not too sure) when things aren't looking up, I think Vince can really count on Dwayne to help out when the chips are down |

okay, someone fill me in here please....
What exactly did John Cena say about The Rock behind his back? All I remember reading was that Cena saying that he could do both movies AND wrestle, unlike The Rock where he calls him out for trying to distance himself from WWE. Basically implying that The Rock was too cool for wrestling. Is that what Rock is all pissed off about? Is there more to it than just this? Quote:

I fully agree with everything Cena said back then except the 'Rock wanted to be a wrestler his whole life' point. Which I'm not sure is true since he turned to it after 'failing' elsewhere. If it is true then Cena was pretty much bang on.
And don't read anything into what Rock said on RAW being any kind of genuine heat, not a chance. It's all business, all a tease etc to get people talking and hoping to see Rock vs. Cena. WWE are very good at what they do, people seem to forget this at times. |

Rock always wanted to be a football player. Failed in the NFL, and failed in the CFL.
Like how Destor failed to become a successful wrestler, so now he's gotta settle for working for his father's landscaping company with Nervous Ferret and the other dirty Mexicans. Destor eventually became the best landscapper, mastered the line edger, and was a beast on the weed wacker, but was always embarrassed to be seen with Ferret and the other dirty Mexicans. He then send out his resume and took his talents to South Beach to become a poolboy, where he now performs oral sex on Juan Cena's mother daily, poolside nonetheless |

The Rock never failed in the NFL. He may have failed at making it, but he did not fail in the NFL.
