      Actually Dwayne wasn't The Rock when he started wrestling, he went to Memphis in a small wrestling federation after he had a couple of tryouts for the WWF because they said he was too green. Rock wrestled as Flex Kavana in the smaller leagues, but the WWF decided to debut him as Rocky Maivia, and he had a gimmick that completely sucked despite being pushed as a babyface. The WWF decided to turn him heel and put him in The Nation, and that was when he became The Rock.

    When I start watching young Rock season 3 hell I didn't even know it was a season 1 an 2. This is when wrestling was at the top of the game you had the Rock and Stone Cold connection. They changed wrestling like no one have since I mean you waited to hear the glass break or to hear if you smell and a crowd go crazy this was the best years of wrestling. Now NWO did there things too and Degeneration X, Undertaker, Edge and Christian, Shawn Michael, the Hart Brothers, Ken Shamrock, The Hardy Boys, and Goldberg

  • @zerocool1980
    @zerocool1980 2 роки тому +20

    Season 2 as a whole was great. But I think I speak for everyone when I say the flashbacks of his early wrestling career are so much fun. For younger fans who never saw him wrestle, but especially for someone like me who remembered his debut at Survivor Series 96.
    To me this show should be mandatory for anyone beginning in the business. When he has Pat Patterson come watch him and all he can do is sell his pain that his father taught. Which he also used in his first ever match to get the crowd behind him. The episode simply titled Corpus Christi where he meets so many of the guys who along with him would change the business was absolutely surreal. Hearing Austin say, I think I'm gonna get fired because of the character he had. His first interaction with Triple H shows how both of them recognized that they were gonna be connected for years to come.
    But it was also sad having to relive the utter hate the crowd had for him. And look I will be honest enough to admit I wasn't a fan of Rocky Maivia. But the saddest part and I had totally forgotten this because I have only seen WM 13 once. Yes I've gone back and rewatched Austin/Hart countless times But the show as a whole only once. The saddest part was at WM 13 when his dad came out and saved him in an attempt to get a positive crowd reaction. And it made it even worse. Imagine being a young Rock and hearing that your dad is gonna finally get his Wrestlemania moment. You have to be absolutely thrilled that 1) you get to compete at WM but 2) you get to give your dad the moment he never had. And to hear the crowd just boo him. That had to be one of the most disheartening moments of your life.
    But I can't wait til season 3. The show as a whole is fun. And I said this in a previous post. But I can't wait to hear The Rock not disparage Vince. But comment in the fact that the business was changing as a whole and it took Vince awhile to adjust to it.
