  Which heel Rock was the better heel? Was it the Corporate Champ or was it Hollywood Rock? Which one was more entertaining, which one did the better job, which one was better match wise? Honestly, it's hard for me to choose. |

I’d say that Corporate Rock was my favorite heel run of his. He was already a heel at the time so it was easy to hate him. Once he became a face it was hard for me to ever see him as a heel again. He was just one of the best faces ever!

I voted Hollywood Rock. I never thought I'd see him play a heel again after he skyrocketed to mega stardom as a face but man it was impressive how he pulled it off.
He really had fans in the palm of his hand as Hollywood Rock he was still highly comical and fans wanted to laugh at his lines but he'd pull the rug out from under them in a split second and get heat.
It's too bad it was so short lived but it was a great 3 months and bounceback from getting booed against Lesnar and fans being upset he left to do movies.

Hmm tough choice as I enjoyed both runs but if I had to pick I'd go with Hollywood Rock.
I mean who could forget the Rock Concert??!!!
Plus the heel theme during this run was great |

I picked corporate Rock because it came out of nowhere.
I remember The Rock kind of turned face right after SummerSlam for two months. Tagging with Austin at times, feuding with ex Nation members. Starting up a feud with the newly heel turned Shamrock. And then at Survivor Series he swerved us all!
The 2003 heel Rock was good, but at the same time I think we all knew he was only there for a short time. So I guess I didn't get invested into him since I knew after his match with Goldberg at Backlash that he'd be gone again.

Corporate Rock is my favorite Rock.
I love how he left the nation and became the people’s champ but then sold out to be the corporate champ

Hollywood Rock is easily one of my most favorite heels runs ever. IMO it was his best work.

Too bad his Nation heel run from 8/97-8/98 wasn’t a choice. I voted Corporate Rock because I loved 1998 and hated 2003.

Corporate Rock and lads? It isn't even close.
After his face turn in September 7 falling out with the Nation? Rock was on fire as a face. When he turned heel at SSeries 98 his heat was absolutely NUCLEAR. Go back and watch Raw in Nov-Feb 98-99. Unreal. It also led to his real run at stardom....he got so over during this time period they had to turn him face after he was done with Austin.
Hollywood rock to me was a 3 month "ok" run at best.
