And yes, I've seen a ton of lame attempts at comedy from Cena over the years. I'm just speaking on the current situation though. Cena's definitely been guilty of some cringe-worthy kung pao-esque lines.

i'm loving every second of this storyline. and i'm so fucking sick of reading "cena shud turn heel n talk about [insert stupid shit], n then rock shud say [other stupid shit]. " there's a reason you people don't write the show.
this is an opportunity to go outside the whole bad guy vs good guy mentality and they are using it. and it's great. like who you want to like, and take the ride. i saw the rock's face after the writing on the wrist jab. i've also seen part of one of his movies. if the look on his face monday was acting, it must be the best acting he's ever done. |

I dunno, it kinda seems like Cena is trying to hard to appease the IWC to me, since he knows most of us hate his guts (that doesn't include me).

Cena on his BEST day cannot get an arena full of people to chant both lady parts and kung pao bitch in the same promo.

To put my $.02 in, I'm one of the many people on here that were skeptical at last years WM when they , i suppose, "officially" began the storyline with Rock and Cena, wondering how it would work with a year before the match. Now, a mere 5 or so weeks to go, I'm quite pleased with how its gone so far (I was expecting a complete train wreck like some of the recent story lines). Last night I was impressed on how well it went on. For me Rock was up on the insult/momentum meter between the two leading to last night, and Cena made it more even then.
I suspect they'll get more personal between now and WM, and I hope they can keep the flow interesting till then. That said, I'm NOT expecting anything great from either one in the match, but I DO HOPE that the finish to this storyline is worthwhile. |

Do you think Vince specifically asked the Rock to look like a punk bitch, or was that just an accident?

It is kind of awesome how personal people are taking this, but also kind of awesome. Both of them were great, just like the great Supreme Olajuwon.

Ps;
The Rock's promo was actually pretty good. He left out most of the catchphrases, and aside from the kind of lame Twitter references, it was good. |

But that kind of lame Twitter references that the Rock is doing, is a point he is trying to make. When he does the Twitter/Trending bit, it's just to show Cena, that whether I'm here 24/7 or not, I still have their respect and their attention. I mean seriously, how often Cena's "Hustle Loyalty Respect" or "Rise Above Hate" trends worldwide in a matter of minutes?

The problem for The Rock is that he's meant to be putting the match and WWE over, but his absolute Cena-destroyer would be to point out that during HIS era, the wrestling business was many times more popular and vibrant than now. He surely won't be allowed to point that out...
But then again Cena made him look like a fool. Calling him a Son of a Bitch with such venom, and then the wrist notes thing. Out of order. As JR put it, Cena crossed the line from professional to personal. I was actually angry after Raw. Can't imagine how The Rock must have felt. One thing's for sure: these two boys are gonna draw some ratings in coming weeks. |

I believe that "wrist-gate" was planned by Vince. If not, it would be a desperate and pretty unprofessional attempt by Cena to be edgy Punk-esque.
I also don't think we'll see Rock get real and really go in on Cena in a personal way. Rock has to tiptoe a fine line because after Rock leaves again, Cena is going to be there for years to come and has carried the WWE on his back for many years now. The fruity pebbles, Cena's appropriation of black culture in his gimmick and use of lame catch phrases are the extent of Rock's ammo and he's used it. Vince isn't going to let his top commodity get truly buried. |

WWE isn't about Cena, its a business making money, if it helps draw an audience and cash Vince will allow anything. It wouldn't surprise me if we find out one day that Rock got backstage after that segment and celebrated with Cena about how well they just stepped up their fued going into 'mania. |

How is Cena being desperate and unprofessional with the stuff he's saying but Punk is treated like God for doing it? People can say Cena's ripping off Punk but maybe it's just the way the business has developed slightly since the summer. Seems a bit daft to call him desperate.

The Rock, at some point over the next 5 weeks is going to have open up and rip right back into Cena. The fued will not pick up enough heat if Cena's the only ine dishing out the fire. Rock needs to step up and deliver a serious, gimmick free, catcphrase free promo tearing Cena apart. No jokes, no puns, just Rocky ripping Cena a new one.

If (and that's a big if in my opinion), but if Cena did shoot on the Rock writing certain lines on his wrist so he could memorize them, it would be unprofessional because there's no reason to reveal that other than to bury/embarrass the Rock. Don't you think that would be a secret best left in the locker room? It would also be a desperate attempt at being provocative at the expense of Rock in hopes for a cheap pop from the crowd. Again, I don't think the Rock would have trouble memorizing a 15 minute monologue, so I'm not saying that's the case, but if it was, there would be anything "daft" about saying it would be a bullshit move by Cena. I don't think the business has developed that way either and if it did, it's not a good thing that should continue. Guys exposing each others flaws and pissing on their accomplishments makes the whole product look weak. There's a reason why JBL chewed Miz and Morrison's ass for burying Punk on commentary. It doesn't matter whether it's Punk on Nash, Cena calling Del Rio the third wheel when has was champion, Ziggler on Swagger, etc... There's no reason to go outside the gimmick or storyline in that manner. |

Note to Cena:
The guy in the crowd with a "Put me to sleep" sign was a CM Punk fan, he wasn't requesting a Cena promo. ![]() |

NoDQ.com > WWE > Backstage News on The Rock vs. John Cena, Buggy
Posted by Marc Middleton on 02/29/2012 at 10:16 AM "The verbal battle between The Rock and John Cena on Monday's RAW Supershow from Portland was designed for Cena to get the upper-hand this time around. This was achieved by having Cena point out that Rock had notes for his promo written on his wrist. Some in WWE claim that Cena pointing this out was unscripted. WWE officials are determined to get a 50/50 reaction for both men at WrestleMania 28 in Miami." Fucking knew it. Fuck a goddamn 50/50 reaction. Why do they try so damn hard to get Cena cheered!? |

I only posted the header to cite the source. I have a blocker on my computer because the pop-ups and shit are horrendous at nodq.com, I agree.
Seems to me like The Rock was "sticking to the script" and Cena did not do that which made it look like he got the best of The Rock. When WWE lets them both play ball, we'll see what happens. |

Totally love the fact that we can bitch about our pro wrestlers writing stuff on their arms but not our major political candidates. That it's bad in the scripted world, but defensible in the ostensibly "real" world.

PREDICTION
Cena get's several "legs" up on The Rock, he get's heat on him big time in the coming weeks to to Mania. However, at Mania The Rock does something dastardly to end the match and beat John Cena, something so dastardly even his own Samoan cousins couldn't "Smell What he is Cooking". Then the next night Cena challenges Rocky to Rasslemania 29 in New Jersey. |

From what I thought was going on this past Monday night, and from what I have read from new sites about giving Cena the upper hand to atttempt to split 50/50 on the crowd, I don't see WWE giving Rock the greenlight to get real and tear apart their Golden Boy.
