Nope, it wasn't the best thing that happened on the show, but it was one of the best on the show, though.

Here are your best parts of the show ;)

1. Openning segment with Rollins/Cena/Ambrose was good, well... The part when Dean joined in and started beating Seth in the crowd was good. Ambrose just being all over the show this past Monday night was sweet!
2. The crowd cheering for Sandow, while Miz vs Sheamus was happening.
3. The Rock coming back
4. The Wyatt Family vignette
5. Dean Ambrose raising hell in the very last segment of the show and then laying Cena down with Double Arm DDT

Sounds pretty boring to me...

The Ambrose stuff was probably good. He's been highly entertaining in the past few months.

All returning legends do is get pops (except, HBK apparently). Why watch? I can't recall the last meaningful promo the Rock gave.
Edge gave a promo during the build to the Cena/Lesnar Extreme Rules match up that carried more meaning than every Rock promo since his return (sans the first one)
The problem with Rock returns is they are all political, yet he has the potential to deliver something quite better than he has.

Dwayne Johnson (not the Rock) is pandering to movie goers. He will do nothing to jeopardize that. HBK is the only returning legend who will jazz it up any.

His 2011-2012 promos sold the most PPV buys in WWE history...\

The novelty of him returning sold the most PPV buys in WWE History.

Then again, I can't really argue. His 2013 number did very well and that was the only hook for that show

When are you going to get it through your think skull that just because a 4 million monkeys buy into horseh*t, doesn't mean I buy it?
If 4 million people jumped off a bridge, would that seem like a good idea to you, or you would think about it first?
Sure, 4 million people would pique your curiosity and you'd be tempted to jump, but not before at least assessing why they are doing it.
Again, Dwayne's promos are dogsh*t and politically driven. I see right through it particularly when they are minor adaptations of the same dogsh*t.

Keep following monkeys and what the media/statistics tell you but that's not living, that's doing what others tell you,

As if the brand name of Wrestlemania and Rock's star power in Hollywood didn't help with that.

I have no problem with another Rock return for the record, just saying.

I think it's fine if he interacts with new talent. Glad he was having time with Rusev, and I really don't mind The Rock returning at all.
