Why are these "anonymous sources" pissed at the Rock? If anything, they need to bytch and complain about what Creative and Vince is doing to them. Vince is a business man and Rock is money, plain and simple. But guessing it's easier to act like a bytch to someone that dont control the fate of your career.

That report got it twisted when is comes to cross promotion. Why would Rock need the WWE to help promote his 2013 movies? The studios PR machines got that covered for Rock. If anything, the E is going to be riding Hollywood Rock's coattails for added publicity for Elimination Chamber and WM.

It goes like this this: Did the WWE have two Superbowl commercials yesterday? How about that year long champion or that Fruity Pebbles character? Did ANYONE see them yesterday? I know I didn't:evil:

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.

Wth it's not real . He is an employee so unless he wants to go to tna it's not much he can do that he hasn't :snoop: .

why the hell are the Punk stans coming in here trying to change the subject of the thread?:russ: Bringing up The Rock's recent lack of ring work ring and all that other irrelevant shyt. Hell yeah that match sucked.:heh: But we not talking about that though. We over here talking about how much The Rock is winning on all cylinders which results into report coming out about how bytchmade the locker room is becoming.

It's not real? But CM Punk complained like a little girl on a ramp two years ago angry about not being pushed as the top guy and they rewarded him with a tour bus and a new big push on top. Like I said, if Ryder wasn't complacent and didn't allow the WWE to take his Youtube ideas and pimp him out where he gets little returns, he would be more respected but he's not. He's just another lame name from the PG Era that got ETHERED to high heavens by Eve at WM 28.

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

Are you serious? Look at the ratings The Rock was gone all year and the ratings are terrible going down every week. The reason the WWE brings in The Rock is to boost ratings which the current roster can't do so they have not right to complain.

Ok stop your character for a second and leave the rock and his accomolishmehts out of here and tell me what you think zack Ryder should do ? Your saying hes complacent he seems to always bring up how shytty his year was on twitter and his show . I Doubt that he hasn't talked to creative what else can he do

I have no idea. I was bringing up how CM Punk complained and got rewarded. You think Ryder secretly does this and gets no rewards. That says it all.

But it's not "just because", it's cause he earned that level of respect from the company and it's owner. I doubt that it was something Vince & co. were against and he just made the demand and got it. It's likely something that both ends felt was a good idea, and why not? He's not just some guy who used to wrestle there, became a Hollywood star, then came back and got shyt handed to him. He's one of their top 3 biggest names of all time, and he's not half-crippled. Why would he not have a right to main-event?

It'd be like 2002 when Hogan came back after 9 years away, and in one month wrestled in what was treated as the main event of Mania with Rock. Let's say (just an example) somebody like Hurricane or the Dudleyz or whoever had caught an attitude about it, just because they put on some cool matches and maybe sold some shirts... so an all-time legend that defined an era shouldn't have been able to come back and be granted that spot on the big show? That would've been crazy if any of them dudes acted like that. Same thing applies here.

:comeon::dwillhuh: they can complain all they want. Is it better to sit around saying thanks rock ill be here waiting for my mania paycheck ? Wouldn't you rather them want to show what they can do instead ? The rocks a Movie star and one of the biggest wrestlers of all time even cena doesn't reach his fame level and that's with being pushed for years you want a new face to be on this level already ?

A. This report seems shaky. Any one of us could have written this based on what we think the 'boys' might be feeling. You could write a 'Backstage Heat on Orton' article for his wellness violations and itd be as believable or the 'Jericho only returned to take someone else's sport' bullshyt. Using smart mark logic you can write anything you want. And it will never get confirmed or denied.

B. IF its true, the boys have no concept of how a star is treated and have given up on creating their own star. When Rock was a regular, he had the cleaniest, most moral attitude to doing jobs. He didnt walk out, he didnt refuse to lose or demand to go over. But none of these underachievers was around during the attitude era and dont know that. And thank god they werent bc theyd be lucky to be in ECW back then. Rock is the biggest star in pro wrestling, pro wrestling is a business, the stars create cash. Rock isn't hazing talent, hes not keeping his foot on anyones throat. Hes being The Rock. Creating ratings, selling out arenas. I didnt know he had to analyze and hand out outlines to the talent on what he thought of their match.
