The Rock on the Pat McAfee Show

[Chris]

Assuming there will be something from this once it happens

 

[Dale]

- The Rock says he could've been involved in the Wrestlemania 41 finish, but instead wanted the spotlight to be on John Cena and Number 17

- The Rock says that TKO CEO, Ari Emanuel called him for help because ticket sales for Elimination Chamber were slow, and wanted something must-see.

- He wants Cody to eventually turn heel because of "how smart he is". He pitched Cody selling his soul and (according to Rock lol) Triple H decided to go with Cena instead

- The Rock understand that when people saw Travis Scott that they thought he was also coming out. He said he would have adjusted or finessed things a little more

- The Rock says he called Cody and John Cena after Elimination Chamber that "I think the Final Boss' work is done" (To be interpreted...)

- He "liked the finish", but he "would have gotten there differently".

- He was watching WrestleMania at home

Ok so fair enough, I can let the buildup slide because supposedly you called in to help but to then not just see it through Mania and make it make sense fucking stinks

I want credit if the other 3 are right:

HHH will be out of power in WWE thanks to The Rock

The Rock is making his plays already.

 

[Butters]

the whole storyline is that cena is kayfabe jealous of codys fan reaction that he always wanted but in reality its the rock that's jealous and keeps fucking up cody's storylines

cody is set to face roman at mania and rock just comes in and says, "nah im here now."
they at least somewhat fix that because of fan backlash and get cody the title.
rock comes out and is like, "im gone now but you broke my heart."
rock shows back up and is like, "we're cool again we drink tequila"
rock shows up again and now is like, "ok I decided i want your soul"
cody says, "go fuck yourself" so he pulls Cena out of his back pocket.
vanishes forever(hopefully).

shits crazy

WWE News: The Rock says John Cena is a good guy

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been thrilled with how the John Cena heel turn has gone thus far and addressed some of the criticisms Cena has got about his new character. Talking to Pat McAfee Tuesday…

www.f4wonline.com

“The way John at the end of the night raised the title…that was the bottom line, that was the North Star. I think he’s going to go on to have this insane run as a heel,” he said.

Johnson said he liked to think he has his hand on the pulse of fan sentiment and loves how Cena’s heel run has connected with the fans, but has seen some chatter about how he’s “playing a bad guy” and don’t believe it.

“Here’s the thing. You don’t have to believe he’s a bad guy. Why not? He’s not a bad guy, he’s a good guy. I’ve known him for 20 years,” he said. “He’s not a bad guy — he’s telling the truth now.”

That truth, according to Johnson, is based in how Cena was both cheered and booed for 25 years of his career which is “a hard psychological place to be.”

Johnson said after the Elimination Chamber turn, he told Cena that he gives him so much credit and hoped he was exhilarated by the opportunity because of how much guts it takes to put everything on the line.

“There’s no blueprint for a heel John Cena,” he said. “I thought he was brilliant and I can’t wait to see to see this heel run for the rest of the year.”
