The Rock is one of my favorite wrestlers and of course what made him stand out were his promos and backstage segments on RAW and Smackdown or pay per views before a match. We loved the repetitive catchphrases with the "Finally" "Whip your candy ass" "If ya smell what The Rock is cooking" and The People's Eyebrow but other than his famous quotes and mannerisms which was what made him popular, he wasn't the greatest while he was in the ring. All Rock did was open handed slaps throughout most of his matches and his suplexes and slams weren't very good, especially his use of submissions (he botched the Sharpshooter every time he did it) his selling was really good whenever he got beat up but sometimes he over did it, like whenever he does that ridiculous yet hilarious backflip every time Stone Cold did a stunner on him. I liked The Rock Bottom when he slams the opponent down to the mat after picking him up with one arm, but The People's Elbow was weak it was just Rock running and hopping over the opponent on the ground across the ring and bouncing off the ropes just to do a silly elbow drop. But he was still popular for the cursing and the stuff he said before the match on the microphone, (which I already mentioned above) so you can't take that away from him.
