Seeing as he mentioned both Miz and Cena any chance he might be ref also for their title match at WM (ok the match isnt confirmed yet but by all accounts that is looking likely)

Good thinking. Very possible. I mean realistically you want to get the best out of the Rock at Mania so having him ref the very last match is a good call.

And if Rock agrees to a few months of sticking around, its the best place to start the feud.

JP Liz V1

No one even comes close to him on the mic

D.Q

This is how it should be. Cena and cole absolutely owned, and us all excited and dare I say, positive.

I didn't know what was going to happen with all the lights. His music hit and I literally hopped out of bed. Wow.

Cianan2

I love how the young kids in Cena shirts in the crowd were trying to boo, and all the older people with Cena shirts were jumping up and down, knowing they were witnessing greatness.

Also, LOL at the "BROOKLYN BRAWLER!" moment!

Can't wait until this is on Youtube tomorrow!

That was probably the greatest 20 minute one man promo delivered in the last 10 years!

AND I'D SAFELY SAY NOT A WORD OF IT WAS SCRIPTED, LET THAT BE A LESSON WWE

Good thinking. Very possible I would think.

the annoying thing for me was only a small section of the crowd cheered his put downs of Cena, the kids will be on Cena's side over him if there is a match which would be very very annoying

GTR63

Anyone who says wwe is as good as it ever was would want to know they're role & SHUT THEIR MOUTH. Thats what wrestling used to be to me. WHAT A PROMO,he nicked the barney comparison from me but the man is one in a Billion in cutting promos. I don't think he'll stay forever but that WAS Awesome.

Super-Rush

Mark out moment of the year. Can't wait until next Monday.

D.Q

But the stuff about being back for good etc.. Surely that's not true...

Degag

I think it's pretty likely that it'll be Rock vs. Cena at WM. What that means for the Miz, i'm not sure.

yeah but if hbk is gonna guest ref hhh v taker is there room for 2 special referee matches

D.Q

Orton/miz?

Insect Overlord

A few more promos like that over the next six weeks and those kids will be converted. Cena just can't match a show like that.

How Soon Is Now

Oh god that was amazing they pretty much gave him the ball and let him run with that one almost surprised Vince let him rip down and stand on Cenas whole gimmick seeing as he is the main man in the company.

But i loved every second of that just goes to show the massive gap in pure talent between what they have on offer now and what the rock was and is to come back after 7 years and not miss a beat and get lets face it a kinda crap crowd on there feet.

I mean half the kids and newbie fans in crowd didnt have a clue how to react it was almost a shame there was not more older experienced fans around for this moment as the rock deserved a much bigger pop and reception then what he got tonight. Hopefully he will get it at mania.

I am praying they let Rock walk all over miz and cena but i doubt it cause all it will do is show the Wwe for what it really is now a days with out the rocks austins old skool takers and hhh s a pure very watered down brand of pretenders and kiddie entertainers.

Being replayed here for any of those that have reverted back to being 8 again

No matter how much of a legend Bret Hart is even his return on Raw didnt come close to Rock's return tonight no one could top that (even dare I say it Christian wouldnt)

But that's what makes it so epic. It's the guy who dominated the WWE the past 6 years vs the guy who dominated it the 6 years before that.

This is like a Rock/Hogan style match. The reactions will be breathtaking.

DOC09UNAM

I don't know what to think.

I can't wait till that's up on youtube.

D.Q

So glad I recorded that...

You're dead right. If Cena and Rock are ever in the ring together, Cena is gonna look like an amateur, no way Rock is gonna let anyone write his promos.

R truth to get taken out on SD, trips to take his spot on Sunday and win.
Imagine that!!

The rock, taker and triple H returning all in the space of a week. Madness.


But seriously, did anyone notice a lot of the wrestlers, with maybe the exception of cena, really seemed to outdo themselves tonight?
Knowing that they knew rock would be near?
What a feeling the Miz must be having.
Didn't he cite the rock as being his inspiration to start wrestling?

Jayob10

What a moment that was, absolutely fantastic. Surprised Vince allowed him slaughter Cena but I'm loving it! Even a sizeable Cena sucks chant afterwards.

The mania crowd will boo Cena out of the building if its Rock V Cena.

You can bet there will be a little bit of genuine heat there between the 2, as I don't think Rock will appreciate Cena questioning his love for the business. Its in his blood.

I think any wrestler would trade a wwe career for the movie career rock has and they would be a liar if they said otherwise.

I don't think we will see Cena v Rock though, I doubt Rock would want to taint his legacy in the buisness by lying down for Cena.

Cannot wait to see some interaction with some of the other guys.

Ridley

Good show and not just for the ending.

Has anyone made an aside about Rock having a ladies' shoe fetish yet?

D.Q

And when you take into account that stonecold will probably be around mania with tough enough debuting the next night... Wow.

jmolloy

they are letting a lot of cena questions through on wwe.com right now, they gotta make this happen 4 weeks is plenty of time to build this for mania

I highly doubt there is genuine heat between the two and to say Rock would taint his legacy lying down for him is not fair. Hogan laid down for Rock and came out of it looking like the bigger star, and Rock will have the same effect if he does so for Cena.

There is no need for Rock to beat Cena if Rock is not there long-term. I'm 90% sure Rock would put him over as he is a classy guy. The build up and the moment of the two of them in the ring is what makes this a gigantic match-up.
