  • What exactly has The Rock brought to the table during the Roman Reigns vs Cody Rhodes feud going into WrestleMania 40? Creatively, not much. The Rock "turned heel", and established himself on Friday Night SmackDown, as he joined the Bloodline. @JDfromNYexplains why The Rock's "heel" promo was a miss with no explanation in regards to Triple H, his promo last week, the WrestleMania 40 Kick-Off Press Conference, all while making little to zero sense. Clip was taken ffrom the WWE SmackDown Post Show Livestream from Friday February 16th, 2024.

They wanted Rock vs Roman. The fans didn't, so they're just gonna memory hole what has already happened and scramble to write and new story.

    The Rock's promo last Fri makes no sense. When Rock said, "That's not the way it works," well the way it works is that Cody won the Rumble, and he can choose any World title to challenge for at WM, so he chose Roman's World title. That's logic. What is not logic is Cody stepped aside to allow Rock to challenge Roman at WM when the Rock did not do anything to earn a title shot against Roman.

    They should have given him completely different music. When the Usos officially split and Jimmy stayed in the Bloodline after Jey left, he got a theme with a completely different feel and vibe that let you know there was a change.
    Every time that theme comes in with "If Ya Smeeeellll," people instinctually pop and then...remember they are not supposed to pop and start to boo, which is weird.
    He also needs to lean into the character a bit more on and off TV like Drew is doing but he still likes to be the "People's Champ" and can't help himself.

    The Rock was entertaining but I am gonna agree they missed the mark with his promo. I was expecting him to say something regarding Triple H. The thing about WWE's bad habits with storytelling is they don't always explain the ins and outs of things when absolutely needed. They will probably not bring up why Cody even brought in The Rock before reconsidering challenging Seth Rollins.

    I thought he said it when he said he would “do everything in his power to make sure you lose” at Wrestlemania (a line which people are saying was secretly directed at Reigns). That was an indication of him flexing his power, but it wasn’t strong enough, imho, and didn’t address HHH directly. I read the segment was cut short, so who knows what else was there (I didn’t see if the Rock had notes on his wrist). It was a lot of nothing, just basically telling us he’s part of The Bloodline officially, and a heel. It was underwhelming, especially given how good the press conference was, and what HHH said the following night.

      Some of you really struggle with black and white thinking. Wanting adversity doesn’t meant we wanted what we currently have. Yes Cody needed adversity. Roman’s streak ending because the EVP of AEW waltzed in and won the rumble at #30 is a weak story and we all know it. The only reason some of us would rather that Cody won is because now we see how WWE booked the rest of the year. Cody wasn’t given adversity over the year, he was given pointless feuds with brock and judgement day, both of which overstayed their welcome. Roman was kept off TV and the bloodline story went stale. They had the opportunity to book it correctly and they didn’t. You’ve got to stop thinking in all or nothings. There’s nuance to this.

      You are right, and WWE or any other company that wants to create new fans need to stop catering to marks who think this shit is real. They hated The Rock's promo because he told the truth about them and they are offended. Grown men whining about pro wrestling is embarrassing. If it was up to them Sami Zayne would have beat Roman in Montreal last year.

It will get there. This Smack Down was to reintroduce his heel Hollywood character to the new fans that they haven’t experience his heel character. So when we start getting highlights towards the end of WM or The Rock don’t show up for future shows then that would be another thing. They going to follow up on that. What happened to patients and build ups. I remember that use to be a big problem in the community eyes of no continuity or build up. We are going to get those answers.

    When Rock said “you had the biggest main event in the history of WrestleMania in your hands and you let it go” that hit hard man…..
    Cody crybabies and internet nerds are really holding the business back from being relevant and cool again just so they can get their fairytale scenarios play out. Cody vs Roman 2 is a mania main event I cannot be proud of, it was born out of death threats and whining. And it ain’t bigger than Rock vs Roman, there’s no argument there.
    Now Rock is possibly going to be a heel against a babyface Roman without the title??? The whole point of this title reign was for the big bad heel Roman to eventually take it when he goes face to face with a babyface Rock at WrestleMania. Cody crybabies really ruined Rock vs Roman and complicated it more than it should have been. Such a shame man, drive these babies away from the product man they are holding it back.
