The Main Reason Why The Rock's Not Winning At The Rumble

[StatUS]

You guys think Dwayne would associate himself with anything less than the Big 4

Dudes a big time movie star, he can't go on Letterman and be like, "Yeah I got Fast Six and GI Joe Redemption coming up," "Oh yeah you can catch me in the Elimination Chamber this Sunday!"

Nope, can't see that.

The Chamber could just be for the #1 contendership and the Royal Rumble winner goes after the World Title instead.

I kinda wish Rock didn't say he'd challenge for the title at the Rumble, it's taken the suspense outta everything. Rock vs. Punk seems more like a Wrestlemania match than anything, so maybe they'll do the rematch at Mania or a triple threat with Cena.

 

[captaincharisma]

you really think the rock announced a title shot more than 6 months ago and guaranteed he's winning the title only to come back and lose? can't see it

 

[I-Hate-You]

Elimination Chamber could come off as a bigger deal...because it should be considering the structure.

I can definitely see him wanting to compete in one of those.

 

[ThatKidBlackHippy]

Rock competing in an EC would be dope. But I dunno, dude got two movies coming up and shooting another two I think, already busy as fukk plus I would think both he and E would wanna minimize the potential for him to get hurt with WM and his hollywood shyt on the horizon.

This. I see Brad Maddox screwing Ryback out of a rumble win and being placed in the chamber with him, Cena, Punk, Miz, and someone else.

 

[Kang Deezy]

It's also possible Rock could lose to Punk via some fukkery that enrages Rock enough to compete in the Rumble to get another shot at him

 

[Fellatio]

There was a good reason but i cant remember

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

Roster would be tripping all over each other to be one of the five guys to rassle The Rock in Satan's prison though. Good idea.

Bingo. Miz defended the title against Lawler while the EC was for the contender. But I'm hoping it doesn't come to that, Cism Punk is gonna make Rock go to sleep faster than Southland Tales

punk has been the focus of most of 2012....i dont see why he shouldnt be in the main event of wrestlemania. really dont wanna see cena vs rock part 2

It's just a WWE marketing ploy. They announced it for sell out reasons and for something to look forward to like the Undertaker streak deal at Mania that everyone knows is happening and will still watch Taker beat whoever they put him against every year.

That's one match he's never done and it would FINALLY give him an opportunity to interact with like 5 different talents that aren't obvious like Punk and Cena.

He's a heel. He's being built up to lose to Rock or Cena. Ryback had him beat at two straight PPVs and he needed hijinks to win storyline wise. That tells you what kind of heel he is right there. He's not like Lesnar who doesnt have to run or hide and can win by himself.

Why are you so salty at punk @R=G ?before you say your not you give any credit he earns to aj, dbry, cena , ryback , Vince anyone but him if he beats rock ( at any point don't break out the oh rock giving that failure punk a rub since he's bigger than the business stuff up either )

 

[R=G]

Salty? I'm the ONE around here who told you and everyone else who CM Punk was before you got on the bandwaggon post heel turn with Meth Hardy. I was saying the same shyt about him for years.

If he goes over the Rock, so what. It was in the cards and it's part of the storyline. The Rock is STILL headlining Mania 29 in front of 80k strong. That's not changing. And he definitely won't be going over the Rock clean with the character he has...what's the gimmick? Crooked refs or NXT jobbers as stand ins? Got a feeling that it might be NO DQ and anyone that interferes gets fired or some shyt. CM Punk is gonna get hit with the People's Elbow in Phoenix Arizona and that's that.
