Heel Rock >

[Rich Rane]

We got zero clarification on Rock's role on the road to WrestleMania, but damn that was a great promo. So glad I stopped watching Rising Stars for that.

Heel Rock is the best one

Rock is totally playing the Mike Tyson in DX role here right?

The rock has always been a better heal.

He roasted the crowd and had them booing hard. Yet, he still had them chanting his name, and saying his catch phrases. He’s just too damn charismatic.

Yeah, it was like that with Hollywood Rock too. Hell, people cheered him on when he was with The Nation. The marks could boo him to hell, but the casuals will love him. And because he did the right thing by embracing a heel role, the marks still love him.

Rock partying like it's 97 when he joined the nation and late 98 to early 99 when he joined the corporation and used to call the fans and Steve Austin trailer park trash. Funny thing is that Austin did end up living in a double wide trailer after his first divorce.

Yeah, I think it's obvious that's what the play is going to be. I hope it's not though. Rock over the last week has been much more enjoyable than any of his other runs in WWE over the last two decades. They're obviously going to have Cody win and build to a Roman/Rock match next year, but I'd rather have a heel Rock face off against a face Roman than what's more likely bound to happen.

Yeah I think you could do that.

Have Rock turn on Roman but then the next few weeks he puts Roman down and takes the bloodline from him. Roman then has to redeem himself over the next year.

It's also possible for the Rock to be face without being Dwayne... So there is that.
