WWE Universe turning their back on the Rock at the presser

[bigde09]

Smarks are embarrassing man

 

[Neuromancer]

Classic Rock is back. Smell that? That's cooking

 

[Straw Hat Luffy]

Coli still don’t know what being worked means


Nobody can answer why Cody said he wouldn’t face Roman at Mania the first time

 

[Tres Leches]

he sonned the cody crybabies heel rock always been x1000 better than bface

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Do anybody got the link? I wanna see

 

[ChatGPT-5]

So ya'll gonna act like the Rock wasn't expecting a hero's welcome when he tried to power play his way into the main event spot??

Of course they pivoted becasue of the backlash we aren't being worked we can tell this wasn't the original plan.

oh we know this. the point is, the rock is him, and adjusted accordingly. now mania is far more interesting than it was before. so calling him back wasnt a bad move after all.

All I'm saying is it ain't sweet like that for the Rock anymore cuz a good chunk of the fanbase wasn't alive in his prime and they see the narcissistic movie star who's been n the decline the past few years. But because of narcisstic delusion the Rock thought it was 2012 again

and now theyre about to become rock fans.

People don't want to admit it, but Rock being involved made this story a million times better. The problem with rematches is that you basically said everything you needed to say the first go round, so now you have to come up with new shyt to get people as hyped as they were back then. Cody having to overcome the new 2 man power trip is much better than him fake crying about winning it for his dead daddy again.

Literally everyone has admitted this and gave the press conference the praise it deserved

Damn, everything Rock touches is flopping now

Rock is highly intelligent. One of the reasons he returned now is likely because he knew he'd be permitted to be heel. He wouldn't willingly walk into the WWE again for a Batista/Daniel Bryan setup. He's entirely too image conscious and self aware for that. Difference is, Vince isn't around to force the issue & they went with the flow for a change.

Rock knows the WWE fanbase better than they know themselves. I don't think any all time performer has been "turned" on in that business more than he has. Cody is the new sensation & they knew the play before he returned. You don't get to where Rock ended up by not knowing how to read a room. Per usual, fans will cheer him again on his way out.

Also notice the fanbase isn't talking about Vince as much? That was probably the plan from the jump. New owner comes in and takes eyes off the old stuff.

Yeah it's quite the turn around..bottom line the Rock as heel against the new top face is what's in demand.

I'm talking about the people that are still hating on it. If you look around wrestling sites and podcasts you can see plenty of people still claiming that Cody finishing the story was good enough. Hell one podcast on YouTube said that WWE is failing with this story right now, but they're the typical looking smark so.

Except that is exactly what happened. Like someone else said nobody has explained or will explain why Cody said not at Wrestlemania.

Giving way too much credit to the Rock and WWE.

As I said Rock's narcissistic delusion combined with his buddies at TKO thought fans would care more about Rock coming in for the super match against Roman.

Credit to the Rock and everyone involved finding a way to fix this and pivoting into an entertaining scenario. The Rock has always been better as a heel and he's got no choice but to lean into it.

Rock will find a way to be face again and turn on Roman before the end of the run.

Good opportunity to create some of that NWO magic, won't have the same impact Hogan turning heel did but it's been the most interesting wrestling has been in years and it's because of the Rock but I ain't gonna sit here and act like he was some super genius who saw it all from the beginning gtfo lmao
