The Rock

[DynamoUltra]

I come here today posing two questions to everyone, and subsequently, two threads. No doubt the themes of these threads have been discussed before, but I wish for fresh opinions etc. The first one is on The Rock, and getting to the point, will the Rock ever come back to Wrestling and be the star that so many of us loved, and not just in a cameo?

Highly unlikely. Money and fame of movies too big. WWE really need him. Unless he can't make it big in the next 5 years or so it's cameos or nothing.

You got that right. Understatement of the year.

The Rock is cooking up a storm with his movies so he not coming back.

 

[DynamoUltra]

That's what I thought. What a shame. The reason I brought this up is because I re-watched "Welcome to the Jungle" the other night and the Rock delivered a Rock Bottom. Got my spine tingling.

He wont go back full time but he may pop up every now and then!

 

[Upgrayedd]

smackdown could use him

smackdown could use him

So could Raw.

Officially retired over a year ago. DOsnt even make special guest appearances anymore.
Can't blame him either for walking away. Will make more money in movies and be on the road a lot less. Would love to see the guy back as a heel. He was the best in the business. Just hope he never comes back to help Cena though. that would be horrible. Cena is worthy to hold the the Rocks underpants. If anyone comes to help Cena they should be booed at of the stadium no matter who they are.

WWE need to find someone with his charisma quick. Since he left there is no one.

Didn't he once say he'll always be part of the wrestling business and he would never give up preforming for his fans because he loves the live audiences too much, guess becoming a Hollywood actor changes people

Yes he has said that on several occasions .. my feeling is that The Rock will come back but not anytime soon , perhaps in 3-5 yrs time he will come back and wrestle one final match against the likes of a Stone Cold or Triple H and that will be it for him .. saddly

I hope not that would be a horrible match.

stone cold is done. his body can literally take no more. He is a solid hit, or a bad fall away from serious problems

thats why when he does occasionally show up it's basically walk out, stunner prance around, walk away.

Maybe Vince will listen to everybody and push for the Dream match ... HBK vs The Rock , the 2 most electrifying wrestlers in history.

 

[rapidshave]

Vince has pushed for it.

But The Rock won't work with HBK.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Vince has pushed for it.

But The Rock won't work with HBK.

Is this because of The Rock's close relationship with Bret Hart?

 

[DaSawx]

I'm not sure they're that close, I think the Rock just doesn't like him as a person

 

[eastaugh36]

Seriously, why would he want to come back? If it was of the standard it was when he left then he might consider it but the WWE is a rabble and Vince only has himself to blame. Out of control egos, poor booking, no development of anyone not on the 'inside' etc etc.

Yes.

 

[unit27]

Strongly doubt that , Rock would love to wrestle HBK .. i think its HBK behind the scenes acting like a selfish prick like he always has been, refusing to ever work with Rock.

I read that when The Rock first came into the business HBK pretty much didn't give him the time of day and treated him like crap and now doesn't have any respect for him and refuses to work with him....

Would make an awesome match though!!

I'm fairly certain he made reference to this in his book.

Yeh Rock was treated badly by HBK and became close with Hart during the whole feud.

 

[StingaArmstrong]

Wouldn't mind Rock v Orton at WM 23. But Rock v HBK is top of my dream match list.
