What movies has The Rock ever plugged when he's showed up in the WWE? Well... he kinda of plugged Doom at the HOF... kinda. You mean when he said Doom was worse than The Marine? That was his way of plugging Doom? I don't think you guys understand what it means to "plug" something. Making fun of a movie that's several years old is not "plugging" a product. |

Guarantee, they all hate Rock, the older guys, i guarantee. Jealous maybe, but i do not agree, i think it comes down to how he is with them, much like Hogan, he is all that counts, and like Tripper would probably love to just talk about old times but Rock would just plug his new movie every 2 minutes because that is his profession now, to film ****e and plug like a beaver. What movies has The Rock ever plugged when he's showed up in the WWE? None but that's not in the script they gave him. It is when he does interviews on TV show, he is The Rock, always will be, but he doesn't think so. He believes, he will be known as Dwayne Johnson the movie star but he won't. I understand it is his job to talk about his films and stuff but, he needs to show some respect towards the business that gave him a chance in the world and made him famous. He doesn't seem to acknowledge the fact that he would be nothing without Vince and the WWE. |

Every single celebrity and musician does the same thing. The Rock isn't any different. He doesn't answer any questions about wrestling because he doesn't get asked any questions. It's not like they want to know about his wrestling past when they're interviewing him. You think the producers of his movies would be happy if he went on talk shows and just started talking about the first time he won the WWF Title in 1998? |

OH FOR  SAKE! Would it make you whiney little bitches happy if he stayed with the WWE and came back every month for that "one more match" like Mic Foley? or how about coming back to plug every ing movie like Austin? NO, because it would ruin what he left in your memories. Wipe out your vagina's and grow the up.. |

You can gather that from expression, mannerism's and the tone in his voice. |

If he's appearing on a WWE program, he knows that's supposed to be about his wrestling past. Why do you think he did the promo last year for the Battle Of The Billionaires match or come by to induct his family into the Hall Of Fame if he's so ashamed of his wrestling past? |

He was just being The Rock, we all wanted him to be the Rock and if he hadn't of been The Rock, we'd of all been bitching and complaining about how dull he had become. I for one enjoyed the speech and was happy to see him back on a WWE screen. A- ing-men. Wrestling fans are so ing fickle, it's not even funny. Dwayne Johnson gave everyone The Rock, the same Rock they've been jizzing over wanting to see one more time (me included), yet people are still not happy. Lame, and Rock > you all, tbh.  |

Right here's the deal. One day, The Rock, Triple H, Stone Cold, Mick Foley, Undertaker, Kane & Shawn Michaels will have to be inducted into the HOF.
Here are my terms, they all induct each-other. That would be my dream. Not one by one, not oh The Rock is the main event, not It's all about the Game, Not the legendary Deadman. But as equals and half the reason why the wwe is where it is today, all of those men. I just wish they shared some sort of comarardery, it all seems forced when the ones no longer active appear.
I just don't like seeing The Rock or whatever as if, he, on his own, made it, those people made it to where they are now together.
*EDIT* Add Kurt to that list too. Forgot about him being a TNA guy and all.

Oh, please. You really think The Rock needs the money? You obviously just dislike the guy and aren't willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. He did what we all wanted - he came back and was The Rock, yet here you guys are still complaining. |

So how come no one cared when Bobby Heenan cracked jokes and made fun of people at the 2004 and 2005 hall of fame?
I've always kind of had resentment towards the Rock for leaving, but I still loved seeing him back, and had no problem with his speech. That's exactly the reason I loved the Rock.. I don't want to see him come back and be serious.. since we haven't seen him in year's it was awesome to see him playing The Rock character.
Now as for whether or not he was being a dick backstage is one thing, and if he was then that sucks, but I didn't see anything in his speech that made him look like he's above the business.

Agreed. I loved Rock's return and it was awesome. Can't wait to watch full version when the DVD comes out
