The Rock getting heat at the Hall of Fame

i dont see why everyone wants the rock back he is a retired wrestler and what he does after that is his choice.

however the direspect was uncalled for

While yes, I don't like this either, you guys are overreacting. Rock didn't go to Wrestlemania because he is filming a movie right now. He was lucky he could even go to the HOF ceremony. He blew off Josh Matthews because that's what The Rock does. He's ALWAYS treated those backstage interviewers like s*** (poor, poor Kevin Kelly, or whatever his name was). It's part of his character. And while I don't like his speech and how he did it (too much comedy instead of honoring his father and grandfather and going too long) and I don't like at all the way he acted (IF the reports are true. It's not like these are always right) but that doesn't mean I wouldn't want him to show up again at some point hopefully with a better attitude. I don't approve of this at all and this just further lowers my opinion of The Rock as I was already saying some of this stuff about him before but there could have been an explanation for it or something or it might not have been true. Who knows.

Probably was though but let's not overreact here.

when i said i dont see why people want him back it had nothing to o with this i never liked him anyway he has a weak moveset (almost cena like) but he was more entertaining

ok, i just watched the Rock's speech, and damn was he rude, and when he had his backstage interview with Josh Matthews, he just left, wow the Rock should never appear in a WWE event ever again, he didnt even show up at WM24 backstage at allkillerband55

Exatcly agreed. I think the newest movie of his wasn't that good but he does make good movies SOMETIMES so I just still like him a bit.

Because the point of the speech wasn't to be The Rock or to be funny. It was to honor his father and grandfather. Also he apparently went way too long which is a no-no. Flair did too I think but hey, it's his night so that's alright.

As for rocky insulting people, thats inevitable and very expected but he did not have to take so long or at least spend more time praising his fater and grandfatherDespirano

hell yeah, he had some fun at the beginning but made his honors and told them they were unique

i think he spent too little time honoring his dad and grandfatherAlBeadFFx

nah, didn't think so

i think he spent too little time honoring his dad and grandfatherAlBeadFFx

he just completely ranted and made jokes that the fans found funny, but not so much with the wrestlers

"The Rock arrived in Orlando late Friday night after working during the day in LA and then came to the Amway Arena late Saturday afternoon after preparing to do two speeches at the HOF Ceremony. I spoke to Rock at length back stage, as did my wife, and he was his usual happy, friendly self and thanked us for all the J.R.'s products he has received and he said he loves our sauces and thanks that our peanuts are a great idea, which was nice to hear. He also is the owner of an "I've Got Big Nuts" T-shirt from our place. The Rock may have gone long on his speech to many, as he had lots of ground to cover and our fans can be the judge of that when they watch the unedited DVD. I enjoyed our visit and his presentation. I can also see sitting in the audience for several hours without a break, being a challenge,nature does call occasionally . The Rock stayed as long as he could after his presentation and then had to fly back to work where he was back on the set Sunday. Word going around the Internet is that Rock was aloof to many, is hard for me to buy into. I did not personally see that."

Wow this thread really sux nowDespirano

Yeah I know.. There's hardly anything to discuss now.

Personally i loved the rocks jokes, the two that stood out for me were:

1. One on Chris Jericho: ROCK:You still talk about the night you beat me and Stone Cold. It's better than talking about your new hairstile that makes you look like a 12 year old!" And Jericho stood up, as if he actually wanted to beat the living cr*p outta rock.

2. The Marine joke: ROCK I dont know if you heard, but WWE got into trouble recently for abusing soldiers in Iraq. They tied up the soldiers to a chair, and made them watch the marine!

Cena's responce:
