    He and Stone Cold, followed up with the Mankind persona of Foley, saved the WWF. If Eric B hadn’t fired Austin and instead let him be himself, along with Paul Levesque, they could have pulled the Rock to WCW as an NWO member and buried the WWF. Imagine if Austin went Texas Rattlesnake with HHH in a form of the game earlier and Hogan and Flair and Savage in the 90s?!?! No DX and no Attitude era. All from a stupid firing and a misread on a single talent.

    Yeah, but it's often The Rock's earlier promo work from the late 90's and early 00's that I enjoy more than what came later, because when he came back from his first hiatus after doing The Mummy Returns or Scorpion King (or whatever movie that was) in 2001 or 02, he was never the same again. He stopped wearing the silk shirts, changed his music, and even his catchphrases became ridiculous, the whole "Sweet cream on an ice cream or bolonga sandwich" shit, it was so stupid. I hate that version of The Rock.

When people said he sucked , he proved to the millions he has lots more to give for he did make many of us smell what he was , is and still is cooking . Dwayne Johnson is an inspiration to me. How he could say the things he says is unbelievable. I call it God given talent , can never be taken away or duplicated. I hope to meet him someday one way or another. .....

    What makes The Rock the GOAT mic worker and the most charismatic wrestler of all time is that it's pretty much impossible to replicate his character work, verbal charisma, delivery and crowd control. The Rock could make a baby babbling into a selling T shirt, its not that he was about catchphrases, is that he had the ability to turn any little shit into a catchphrase. Other wrestlers would kill to get one catchphrase over with the crowd, and yet The Rock has a dozen of them. You could argue that a competent film actor or public speaker can cut better promos than guys like Flair, Austin, Piper, Dusty, Savage, Jake, Foley, Heyman, Cornette, Jericho, Punk, Cena, etc. But no person in history of human kind can electrify the building as much as The Rock did with just moving his eyebrows and rising the microphone up his mouth. It's also worth mentioning that The Rock can cut great promos without using his catchphrases if he wants to (not that there's anything wrong with using them). I recommend watching the "WWE Raw After Show" DVD. It contain the best off air segments in Raw history and about half of those segments are 20mins Rock ad lib promos. The Rock kept using his catchphrases a lot because it drew money, ratings, and put asses on seats.

    It's the Cornette fans who have turn everything into a mico analysis of what cornette likes. John Cena would just have been another Road Dogg in the attiude Era. Also, it didn't help that HHH used his postion to try to bury the Rock. When the Rock was part of the corporation his W/L ratio was like 85%, and HHH was 70%, once the ROCK was on fire in 99 it coincided w/ HHH marriage to stephanie, suddenly the Rock's W/L ratio was 60% and HHH skyrocket to 90%. HHH win to loss ratio was as if he was the 'guy' and the Rock w/l ratio was a clear burial, Vince & HHH didn't want the ROCK to be the guy, bc Austin, Cena & Hogan had w/L ratios of 90% . How could the ROCK who saved the wwf from collapse and who transcended into becoming wrestling & hollywoods icons be given such a low winning percentage at his height while HHH's boosted despite HHH having the lowest selling merch and lowest pops. These Cena boasters don't know that the ROCK could have easily beaten Cenas scripted accolades had the Rock not been around HHH's peak reign of terror.

    The internet is generally “controlled” by the 18-25 crowd. Unfortunately we’ve hit the point in time where “cena fans” are at that age. So the vocal majority is currently the people who weee 5-7 year old kids when Cena debuted. They’re on a mission to call anyone who dislikes him “an old head” and have nostalgia goggles on. Real ones know how strongly he was rejected by the fans.

    I find it mindblowing how young and short Rock's career was. He debuted at Survivor Series in November 1996 age 24 and retired from full time wrestling in 2003 age 30. So that basically meant that much of everything from Nation of domination to the Corporate champ to the peoples champion...was him in his 20s. Like looking back at the old clips its pretty amazing how the Rock at 26 or 27 years old..dress like a sigma drug lord and command the crowd's attention so strongly and having them hang by his every word. To put that into today's perspective..thats like having Austin Theory, who is in his mid 20s now, being that over and popular.

Before that, he was on every WWE show every week until then, and only missed a few months like he did in 01. By 2003, Rock only wrestled for a few months and then largely disappeared from WWE television except for one night only surprise appearances, with only one WrestleMania match in 2004, and then Rock went back to the one night only appearances again. The last of those was the pie eating contest on RAW for the Diva search, and then he disappeared for years and was never seen again until 2007.

    Little correction, Muhammad Ali was the original People's Champion and it was from that Ali passed that on to The Rock. I believe Rock asked Ali if he would be okay with him doing that too. That said, it's incredible that this guy made such an impact in a what, only 8 year run in WWE? That's not very long considering how long some people have been there since and have made little to no impact in comparison.

    Hogan was literally one of the most famous people in America in the 1980s to even people who never watched wrestling. Hogan was a household name to even non wrestling fans. Only Hogan and the Rock truly transcended wrestling but I would argue that Hogan relative in his era in the 1980s was even bigger in the mainstream culture than the Rock today.

I really felt a nostalgic sense of my youth watching The ROCK 🪨 aka The People's Champion 🏆 entertain and then masterfully transition to Hollywood which he was destined to go.

    It was said by Rock in an interview, that when he was in the Nation of Domination, that if he was given one chance to speak on the mic as himself, he'd show what he could do. So, when at a match the crowd chanted that he sucked, he responded with, "The Rock might be a lot of things, but he doesn't suck!"..and it was off to the races...

    I was watching WCW and WWE a lot around 1998, and the way that the Rock transitioned from Rocky Maivia to The Rock was amazing. I rember each Friday night (Raw and Nitro was shown on a friday night in the UK), i would come home from my job at the store and see the crowd get wilder and wilder for the Rock each week. I knew his status was unassailable when he was walking up the walk way and one of the Divas was waiting on the ramp looking admiringly at him, and he stopped and invited her to hook up backstage. It was scripted of course but it showed he was liked by a diverse crowd. Women and men.
