Re: RE: The Rock reveals when he's coming back.
Why shouldn't a 40 year old part timer put the future talents over?

I understand that Rock can be used in dream matches and similar things, but that's not smart. Why use a guy to pop a buyrate at this WM if I can use him to build a star that can main event lots of WMs in the future? Rock, Lesnar, Taker & HHH should be used to put over stars. Cena too. But having a guy as over as Rock back and just use him in dream matches is not wise.

I put Miz over Rock in that post, lol. Obviously Rock would give the biggest rub since he's the biggest star, but if Rock puts over 7 young heels, the Rock loss will be devalued to the point where nobody really benefits at all.
I fear for the future of the wrestling business, if all they have to look forward to in 10 years is the in-ring-return of Randy Orton. Bleh.
Rock doesn't need to put over 7 young heels, I think one would be the most appropriate quantity, but two wouldn't hurt, I guess. Lesnar has to put people over (but they already fed him to Cena, shocker), Undertaker at WM, HHH (if he was willing to), Foley (who will probably feud with Ambrose), there are lots of options. Rock is just the guy that would give the biggest rub, I think.
Other ways for the oldies to put new guys over would be like H and Flair legitimised Orton and Batista with Evolution. Manage them, give them advice. Appear with them on screen and show confidence in them. For some wrestlers just having the support of a legend and the legend saying "This guy is untouchable" is good. But with Rock that wouldn't work since he can still go in the ring for at least 3 minute matches before he gets tired.

:dawg: I agree, Rock in that managing angle wouldn't work. If Flair comes back, him and HHH could do another Evolution. Foley would also be appropriate for that role. So many different ways to put young guys over.

Hell even a Rock promo on how good someone is would help put them over. But him "overcoming" it and winning would make it void.
It's not like Taker who can lose and put someone over imo.

Yes, it wouldn't work if Rock won. But it's true, this works for the Undertaker at 'Mania. Taker winning in a "cheap" way would still put the guy over.
Lol @ the manager angle. That won't work. What most people don't get is that Rock needs the spotlight and the top spot. It's been that way since 1999 and basically every appearance he's made. He's not gonna be in some lowly manager angle. :dawg: He could put Danny over by reciting the YES chant. And make it cool because The Rock did it! :burns:

Yeah. Plus as far as pushes go, you know WWE is going to use Lesnar to build their young stars for the next year of his contract. :burns:
But as far as the manager role goes, that shit would fit someone like Flair. Rock can't be downgraded to being a manager. He's the people's champ. :burns:
