The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 29? Rock Committed to Appear Next Year

[AKI Man]

<blockquote class='quote\\_blockquote'><dl><dt>Quote:</dt><dd> </dd></dl><div>WWE star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was asked by AP writer Dan Gelston about the possibility of facing Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 29. "I'm not saying a thing," Rock said with a grin and a raised eyebrow. "I didn't say anything."

The story also states that Rock is committed to appearing at WrestleMania 29, though his role has not been defined. It also features quotes from John Cena and Chris Jericho regarding WrestleMania 28. When it comes to acting, Rock also noted that he would prefer to move away from playing the invincible hero role in movies at some point for more of a dramatic performance.

As for WrestleMania 29, there's no guarantee that Lesnar is onboard just yet, as he is still under contract to UFC. That said, Lesnar has indicated many times, including in an interview I conducted with him, that he's open to returning to WWE, just not as a full-time wrestler. One can only assume that Rock vs. Brock would be enticing and lucrative, though one problem with the match is that it features two part-time wrestlers, whereas one or both could be used to help elevate younger full-time stars.

Well they did have some unfinished business from uh....9 years ago I think?

I know there will be alot of people who will like this idea, i myself think it will just take away from the show its self in the long run & some DESERVING person would be left out.

I meant to be sarcastic. Looks like it didn't translate so well. I AM LAUGHING OUT LOUD!

Actually, if Brock comes back full time, I would actually agree on having that angle. Who knows, maybe we will have Brock vs Taker for WM29 if the streak continues.

 

[TheDoctor]

lol that wasn't toward you milo. I took your comment as sarcastic as well lol.

Didn't this match already happen? Yes?

Two part timers of that caliber isn't going to save Wrestlemania. I'd rather Shawn came back to fight Brock, or one of the new guys.

The Rock? He should be putting over Punk next year, and he knows it.

The Rock should have AT LEAST completed a part-time schedule already before getting a WM match this year.

Actually, I believed that WWE didn't want Rock to wrestle that much. In that way, it will generate hype and thus buy rate of WM29. Survivor Series was just offering the fans the tip of the iceberg as it was a tag match and making them want MORE of Rock in a wrestling match.

As for Cena is concerned, if he doesn't wrestle, no men care. If he does, Kids/Ladies are happy. The kids/ladies will buy WM29 just for Cena. The men are the target here. If they saw Rock in a 1 on 1 match already, the interest won't be that high. They would know what to expect from The Rock at Wm29.

To sum it up? Hype man. Hype.

I would rather see Batista vs Mason Ryan at Wrestlemania next year. I doubt that would come into fruition.

Just sayin.....

You knbow what would be great? A Rock and Funkasaurus feud. It would be gold.

 

[stylesismilo]

With the Rock as heel being Hollywood Rock. Could elevate Brodus Clay too.

I smell money. No, honestly I really do.

 

[AKI Man]

I would love that idea of Brodus vs Rock feud. But do they have faith in Brodus? I don't think so. I do like his gimmick but its not believable and main-event standard. If they actually ditched the fuckasuras gimmick and pushed him as a monster heel then maybe.

I just see a Rock vs Rikishi part 2.

 

[stylesismilo]

I think I'm the only one that dislike him being a monster heel. I could imagine him having this gimmick but being more serious in the ring and uh, jiggle less. At least make him more human rather than a dancing machine.

 

[TheDoctor]

Do we really need ANOTHER monster heel?

 

[stylesismilo]

Hahahaha! I found another person that thinks that we don't need another monster heel!
