Last I heard, The Rock should be Bringing It again around Summerslam time. With Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar looking likely for that show already, my question to you, the good people of Pulseville, is who do you reckon The Great One will be facing at the summers biggest blockbuster?

Rematch with Cena?

Randy Orton?

CM Punk?

The Undertaker?

Or someone else maybe?

CM Punk and the Rock has potential to be a great battle of wit and words... I can't see them doing Rock Vs Taker at SS... nothing at stake really. A rematch with Cena unless they make Cena lose and turn heel... it's just pointless to have him beat the Rock again. Randy Orton would be a good "Match" but I don't know how or what the build up would be... it would be hard to make that match flow angle wise in my view.

I could see him taking on Jericho though... old heat between them, good matches... both with great verbal skills, would be a good rematch!

I'd have to with Orton on this one. Maybe Cody Rhodes.

He'll probably face CM Punk for the WWE Championship. Maybe Randy Orton. John Cena is unlikely but possible

Hopefully, no one, because the WWE should be spending time building up guys like Dolph Ziggler instead of wasting time with an asshole that isn't a full time wrestler.

If I could i would close this thread because this comment is going to start an uproar if Rock is an asshole or not. :lol:

It seems weird to me that even with the "once in a lifetime" tag that WWE wouldn't run a Rock/Cena rematch at some point.

Rock vs. Orton in a battle of 3rd generation wrestlers would be pretty cool.

Rock said that he wants to be wwe champion again. Maybe he'll face Punk for the title. He could face John Cena in a #1 contenders match. I think Cena will win because if he's facing Undertaker at 29 then he can't go into it without beating Rock

Rock vs CM Punk and Randy Orton vs Rock are two good ideal matches.

As fun as a CM Punk feud would be, I can't see it. Punk/Lesnar yes, since the theory is that eventually Brock becomes champ plus you got the Heyman factor. If Punk and Rock were to meet, Punk would have to drop the belt first.

Back when he cut his "infamous" promo on Raw, Punk did name drop Dwayne and say it made him sick that he was in the main event of Wrestlemania. It's at least one way to get them to feud, and I'm still not sure Punk will be the champ come Summerslam.
