ROCK'S RAW

[noumenon]

-- There is backstage talk that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will host the first WWE RAW of 2010 from Dayton, Ohio on January 4. Johnson’s next feature film "Tooth Fairy" hits theaters on January 22.

Okay... all I can think while reading this is... THEY'RE DOING THIS GUEST HOST BULLSHIT INTO THE NEW YEAR!??!?!??!?!?!?

Rock always gets my hopes up and then he crushes them like the jackass he is.

^True i mean at X SD! seemed like when he said he should host RAW seemed like he really did. But know we know its to promote his Movie... Dangit i was looking for a return!!!

lol, that's the 1st thing I got from reading this was that too. My Rock fanboy-ism must be draining. The guest host concept will be stale as hell by then.

But as I said before, I don't believe anything dealing with Dwayne Johnson until I see it.

The Rock once teased another match with SCSA.
The Rock didn't show up for Wrestlemania's 25th Anniversary
The Rock WILL NOT host Raw unless he pre-records his match announcements

 

[noumenon]

He'll throw punches over the tron and his opponent will sell.

Here's something how it will go...

*Cody Rhodes is in the ring in street clothes with a mic*

Cody: Dayton is really cold...I hate this piece of trash town...But it is okay, because I too am gonna be cold as ice at the Royal Rumble. I can handle the spotlight! I can handle the pressure! I can handle...

*If ya smell plays to a huge pop as Rock appears on the tron*

Rock: So each and every week, Jack Swagger, you run your mouth...

Cody: But I'm Cody...

Rock: It doesn't matter what your name is!

Legacy's lack of pants + Rock promo's back in the day = gold

It already is stale as fuck.

@ noumenon & hometown kid .. :rofl:

Pretty crappy to hear this, Rock is an automatic draw and I wish he would have done this earlier. He needs to host Raw and we need one last match from him. Against Orton or Cena, maybe Punk or Ziggler or Swagger. Anything to put over some new talent would be great for the Rock to do. A Guest Host gig in 2010 could set up a WM return match.

 

[Airfixx]

IF this happens then to be fair, too soon into the guest GM gimmick, a Rock appearance would make everyone else seem like an anti-climax...

If anything, let's hope it happens and that it's the 'grand finale' and we get back to having a GM for the Road to WM. In fact, would they really trust random 'amateurs' to handle that shit?

 

[C4]

When is the guest host thing gonna end? And lol at The Rock promoting his so-called 'return' 4 months prior to his actual appearance on Raw.

 

[xtremebadass]

Will he show up to Raw in baby blue tights and plastic wings?


This does sort of open up a return for him at Mania. I still believe WWE is dangling the HOF above his head until he caves for on more match at Mania.
