I dont want to see him wrestle anyone on the current roster anyway....

Aside from Cena there arent any 'dream matches' to return to, even if he wanted to. So on that note, yeah, Im glad he isnt coming back.

The only match I really wanted to see was him v HBK.

Well, Rock v Orton writes itself. Although it would have been much better during his "Legend Killer" gimmick.

However, I was never that taken with Rock back in the day anyways so I'm really not bothered.

I no longer care about the rock.

He was the great during attitude, but he did all he can do in this business and since he doesnt want to wrestle and doesnt like wrestling anymore then its more power for him.

I dont want him back just to do us a "favor". He moved on and I moved on too. There are big stars out today so we dont need any dusty relics from WWF Attitude wobbling around again.

I think what he says is pretty cocky, but it's also true. No one since The Rock has ever come in and done what he's done, both on the mic and in the ring. John Cena would probably kill his own mother to get the kind of responses that The Rock got; Orton would punt his father in his fat face to have an ounce of the charisma that Rock had in spades. Punk is a great promo guy, but he's more of an intellectual speaker while Rock simply thrilled the audience with his quick wit and snappy lines.

It's been 7 years since The Rock left, and he's still the greatest sports-entertainer in the history of the WWE. No one has come close.

Maybe when someone else steps up and tears up the mic and the ring the way that The Rock did, gets the ratings going and entertains the fans BETTER than Rock used to do, Dwayne Johnson will get a bit of a spark to come back to the ring for a match or two to prove that he's still the best in the industry.

I find it interesting that he doesn't find any of the new guys like Cena or Orton worthy of a one-off match at Mania or something. It's like they're not even on his level, and it's completely true. If Rock came back to RAW for just one night, he would show the new guys just how amazing and easy it is for him to take the crowd in the palm of his hand and electrify like no one else can. It would almost be embarassing.

Apples and oranges, but I kind of liken the authenticity of the Rock saying he'd never wrestle again on Cheech Marin. Once he saw he could make boat loads of cash reappearing with his original bread and butter (blazing on/off screen with Tommy Chong), he all of a sudden dropped his 'I'm a serious actor now' motif and stifled broadening his horizons.

The Tooth Fairy was a devastating blow to Rock's box office credibility, mostly because the concept was god awful. But it still made him, the lead, look bad.

What im saying is NEVER say never. It wasn't that long ago that The Great One teamed up with Mick Foley in a Rock N Sock Connection reunion of sorts at Wrestlemania. While we shouldn't expect him back on the roster anytime soon, I'm sure if the money was right he'd be doing appearances aplenty.

Everything Orton does would have been better with the Legend Killer gimmick...

You'd hope that Rock could sell a rKo better than Hogan did... sigh.

at this thread. The same people calling out people for hoping he'd come back are the same people marking out like bitches in the Raw thread.

I watched it after I found out. Wasn't feeling it til I saw it though. One of the best promos ever.

I only see two outcomes now: Rock VS. Cena or Rock in Cena's corner.
