You can't talk logic to these dwayne stans. This cue ball has been is breaking out in sweats and tired by the time he walks to the ring. He can't wrestle any more, he is worn out 2 minutes into the match. :heh: Yall are stuck in nostalgia, thats why he can pull ratings. People are watching him for who he used to be, not who he is now. :umad:

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
There's really nobody I can see with a right to bytch

Only Ryback has a legit beef and its that if it weren't for Rock coming back, he'd either be champion already or be on his way to winning title at Wrestlemania.

But I can't imagine Ryback would be dumb enough to complain

if anything the rock being around should make dude step there game up
reason rock even got a chance at movies was because of his charismatic personality
if dude where smart they would get there shyt together and showcase there talent and maybe they could get a chance like rock did to crossover and do real movies not them wack ass wwe movies.

Let me just ask this..who's spot is the Rock currently undertaking? Because there is no one who can fill his shoes..not even the Undertaker and his streak. Only a hyped up Stone Cold return, which still wouldn't get the same press that the Rock got for even this past Royal Rumble, is the closest thing possible to have a presence like the Rock.

And it's easy..if someone wants the Rock's spot, go ahead and get yourself to his level. Oh yeah..that's not gonna happen in our lifetimes or our kids' lifetimes:laugh:

It doesn't even matter if he can't wrestle at all these days. He's still good for business, and everybody in the WWE benefits from his presence for the short term. I can't believe any other wrestler would complain about him being there.

This has "dirt sheet writer trying to stir up shyt on a slow news day" written all over it.

Rock gets to promote his upcoming movies through WWE, so it's not like he's doing charity work here ... but I do think WWE needs him a lot more than he needs WWE.

I have no problem with Rock being champ. I just wish he would be used to push other guys instead of matching him up with established stars. Daniel Bryan, Barrett, Sheamus, Ziggler, and others would be instant stars if Rock put them over at Mania. It would be better than "Twice in a Lifetime".

2 things.... people still only ride with the E in general on what they used to be vs what they are now?

If the E was a new promotion pulling off some of the fukkery they been pulling off the last 5 years or so they wouldve been ridiculed and prolly out of business now. But they have a strong foundation.

When was he worn out or gassed tho? That last match just looked like he was selling injuries or the story.

I didnt think he was breathing any heavier than how Cena, HBK or anyone else be breathing when they be wrestling. Hell Tensi and Ryback be looking more gassed than Rock if anything.... and they be in like 3 min matches on a weekly basis:manny:

Can't really say that... I think sometimes, us older fans give ourselves way too much credit. We still watch it, but there's just as many people our age who stopped watching a loooonnnng time ago. There's new fans popping up every day who weren't even alive in the 80s or 90s. There's a lot of people old enough to remember the Hogan era, who probably ONLY watch it now cause their kids do. shyt, most of us are proof that wrestling fans start young. What might seem wack to us is a whole new exciting thing to a kid who's never heard of ANYBODY in the Hall of Fame except Edge. :manny:

As far as this story... it's an internet "report" so I take it with a grain of salt. BUT if it's true, I bet most of the resentment is coming from people who would've never main evented or even been featured on WrestleMania even if he wasn't there. Anybody in the uppercard with an issue about it is probably just typical wrestler ego shyt. The nikkas that's MAD are the ones who can't even main event 'Main Event', guaranteed. Because I just can't picture someone who's doing their thing and have a solidified spot of their own being pissed about a legend returning. Not anyone who doesn't have confidence issues anyway.

To be devils advocate Why shouldnt a guy like Ryder get mad ?? He worked hard and got himself over only to be thrown in the bushes . The guy practically got the whole wwe Internet stuff popping without being rewarded. The guy works hard as hell sells merch and still gets buried all the while heel del rio was being given a million shots .

The rock is the rock but I mean some other wrestlers aren't given fair chances why is everyone acting like they just aren't willing to step up . So yes I can see how people that bust that asses on house shows and stuff all might feel a certain way with the rock being able to name a title shot just because

fukk Zack Ryder. If he had any real balls, he wouldn't let himself get played like this. What was the story last year and the year before? He got so over that they had Cena suck up to him and be his best friend? Then there was that stupid scene where Eve jumps out the ambulance, licks her lips like a trained whore from the 30s, and trys to RAM her tongue down throats to her supposed savior. All the while the camera does that stupid pan out where Ryder looks like an idiot..whole audience started laughing like he was a chump. Then the nygga continues to simp and trys to confront Cena and Cena pushed him down like he was a ho and bullied him for no reason at all. That's the top face dynamic of the WWE. No Devil's Advocate needed. Just a lack of common sense.
