WWE only cares about selling merchandise to the masses and in this case Rock is their golden goose. They're not trying to turn him, they want the big jimmies and old jimmies and maybe a few lil jimmies to buy as many boot to asses shirts as they can make. This whole WWE planning to put Cena over the Rock as a face was never in the plans. The Rock is one of their most popular wrestlers EVER

Post another 100 times so you can prove you're not what The Rock called you. It's ok, you can cry.

Agree to disagree. They can try and make the Rock a goof all they want, at most it will change 1% of the fanbase. There is too much nostalgia there with the Rock

Be delusional some more. He had some awesome lines, but it went all downhill the last part. My God, your ability to shill and believe everything is awesome rivals only The Miz. Unless you're totally ignoring everyone else who is saying the exact same thing I am. But that's ok, I like reading your shill posts. They are entertaining and you have every right to make them!

I was a part of Wrassle GAF before it went mainstream.
I'm thinking The Rock hit a little too hard to home with his 42 year old comment. Some are upset, they'll add to that 1,000 wrestling thread post count though to tell us all how we're wrong though.
Give it a rest.

I'm not rooting for either guy.
I'm rooting for the concessions guys. I'm rooting for black ref if he gets to work that match (he won't). I'm rooting for The Miz if he gets to do a run-in to salvage what remains of his pitiful career. And I'm rooting for Dwayne to botch something in the match itself leading to Cena getting injured and laid out for a year so the WWE is forced to build some new stars.

If the Rock had stopped right before the sing along, it would have been much better. Shit was awkward.

They're fighting because they don't like each other they have real heat.
This RAW was boring after the opening segment. Then it became embarrassing at the end.
For Cena's mom.

The start of the Rock concert was a little weird and not funny, but he middle was entertaining even if it wasn't clever.
The end could have been something cool with slower music and if the Rock had let the fans know what he was trying to do. With a little luck and a properly informed crowd it could've been a great moment.
The rest of Raw was fine, but I feel they keep missing the big talking points that should be getting people hyped for 'Mania. Cena was the only person who delivered in that regard tonight. Although I will say that Jericho's promo about Punk's dad did raise a little heat and generate sympathy for Punk in a way that should benefit their match. If Punk strikes back next week in a serious manner and then a pull apart brawl on the go-home show, I think we'll have the makings of a good atmosphere for the match.
The problem is there are about three rivalries that need pull apart brawls / shocking physicality injected into them before Wrestlemania and we only have 2 Raws left.

This OH MY GOD this. I thought he was about to go into "IF YOU SMELLLLL..." and that would've been great, cut to cameras and Rock pose. Then I heard the music and I was like oh no...NoRéN;35971446 said:

Cena and Rock aren't fighting. They are actually working together for the greater good and get the young and up and coming star John Cena over. 10 more years of JOHN CENA!!
Rock talked about banging Cena's mom to the point that she could barely walk. Cena doesn't show up.
What did Goldberg do when Rock talked about his mom?

I agree, the timing is all fucked up, they should have had this RAW 3 weeks ago. But they don't want to seem to get anything physical despite plenty of feuds that have been before. RAW would have been better if Cena tried to sneak up on Rock and Rock busted his head with a guitar.

Kane: "Hey, are you doing anything for WM?"
Orton: "Actually, kinda funny that you mention that, I'm not..."
Kane: "You wanna uh...you wanna get together for WM?"
Orton: "Ha, yeah sure, that sounds fun, man."
Kane: "Great! Well cya later! Oh, and *chokeslam*

I like how he signals to Bill to walk around the ring.
Goldberg was really awful.
I would love for them to actually do that as a promo. In fact, that should be how more feuds start, lol.

That would be cool if you fucking shrunk that album cover.
EDIT: Cool.
EDIT: Cool.
This. Why bring back ThugaCena and have him be all serious and risque only to not have him interact with The Rock face to face.
I guess next week he goes back to normal and sarcastically pokes fun at everything Rock said about him, all with a smug grin.

New era WWE. No out of ring build uip ever, outside of just proming or some lame run in.
Hell remember Wrestlemania X8? You had Hulk fucking Hogan return to the ring versus The Rock, they got physical right after the statedown and match acceptance, Hell Hogan's first match back wasn't even at Wrestlemania, it was a fucking tag match with the nWo vs. Rock and Austin on just a regular RAW and Hogan pinned Rock clean with a leg drop.
That was a much, much bigger build and clash of titans, and this is a match that has been announced for a year with both guys having gotten physical several times before.

2002 and 2003 was some like some crazy fantasy booking out of those old wrestling magazines 'what if' sections where they ranked wrestlers and what would happen if they actually feuded. Too bad hardly any were good.
