semi disapointed in the rock. he did a great promo, just why wasnt he there :/

he comes on and says hes back and hes back for good then he goes and does a promo from his house in LA.

i bet we dont see him in the flesh again till wrestlemania.

does anyone know the viewing figures for when the rock came back? has it jumped up?

It was actually 0.2 down from the previous week's RAW. ( A 3.3 to a 3.1) However, given that it wasn't actually announced, viewing figures can't really do it justice. One vid of it has 433,000 views on youtube though.

smackdown to me seems like nothing much new to offer, always showing things from RAW? I can understand that it is for those who didn't see raw but they are 2 separate shows are they not?

Snooki to Hit WWE's 'Monday Night Raw'
3/7/2011 7:25 AM PST by TMZ Staff

Snooki is finally getting in the wrestling ring ... and it will all go down one week from tonight on WWE's "Monday Night Raw" ... TMZ has learned.
So far, it's unclear if the "Jersey Shore" star will actually FIGHT during the live event from St. Louis, MO ... but we already know she can take a punch.

Story developing ...

Edit : Moar news

http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/wwe...Mania_Scott_Hall_Receives_Sentence_Today.html

- WWE announcer and Tough Enough trainer Booker T is now on Twitter at @BookerTOfficial.

- There has been some speculation as to who will announce WrestleMania 27 with Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole having a match against each other. Booker T confirmed on his Twitter that he will be one of the announcers for the big event.

- Scott Hall appeared in a Florida courtroom this morning to be sentenced on charges of disorderly intoxication and resisting an officer, stemming from an incident last year in Florida. Hall received three months of probation.

I personally think that Booker T is pretty shoddy as a commentator from what I've heard on Smackdown.

Apart from a cool T-Shirt, Stone Cold, 2x stunners & some beer. That was one crappy RAW.

rypt · 8 Mar 2011 at 14:43

nice to see JBL again

As for Cena, his promo work is still overly geared to kids, but when he raps it makes it actually worth listening to

Tomtom3989 · 8 Mar 2011 at 23:30

I thought it was a bit hypocritical last week when the rock didn't show up and spoke (I BRING IT) via satellite.
But raw wasn't as good this week, I have to fast forward past Michael Cole i wish they would get a better commentator

Tomtom3989 · 8 Mar 2011 at 23:31

Cole nearly annoys me as much as vicky

Isn't that kind of their roles at the moment though? The pair of them get more heat from the crowd than most of the heels can muster at the moment.

My long lost hope is for JR to come back to RAW. It just isn't the same when you don't hear "bah gahhhwed King". Over the last few days I watched the Shawn Michaels doco and the Steve Austin one and various old matches on the Tube and its just so much cooler having JR there.

Sadly, it doesn't look like JR will ever return to announcing full time. He might do it now and again but I think its over for him.

"I Bring it Via Satellite"

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has already responded to John Cena's latest rap diss from RAW. The Rock tweeted:

"Wow can The People's Champ and THE MILLIONS recover from that devastating Dr.Seuss "final KO blow"? CENA = HOT SHAVED BARNEY ANUS GARBAGE.."

LOL

Mark1989 · 9 Mar 2011 at 22:33

Thing is i wish Cena would stop this kid stuff but its his role so wont happen in his RAP thou he does make a point as much i think the Rock is a legend and i want Rock to come and give Cena beat down in the ring... He isnt showing up!

Which is why imo he shouldnt of said he is back cause in reality thus far he isnt back what so ever. Now Dont get me wrong the promo`s are amusing but The Rock in the ring would be 10x better.

Right ....

Because kids did not love SCSA?
Because kids didn't all wear NWO shirts?

A badass heel is far more liked by kids than a superman face, as it is seen as rebellious.

shaffaaf27 · 10 Mar 2011 at 06:34

i bring it via satellite..... HAHAHAHA. Honest to god hilarious. Shame the rest of the promo sucked balls, but that one T-shirt line was fantastic.

JBL cut a fantastic promo, austin didn't even get to cut one

this raw, just like the last few was packed, taker, cena, austin, jbl, hbk, so many big segments, realistically no mid carder got a look in, even the divas were **** on. That was horrible btw, cole burrying the entire diva division. I understand he has been doing it on commentory for a while, and his character and all, but you can go by getting heat another way.

also rypt, 2007 was WWE's most profitable year, and cena was full force babyface then.

rypt · 10 Mar 2011 at 10:40

To be fair, the divas division deserves to be buried.
They can't be strippers due to PG and half of them can't wrestle either

shaffaaf27 · 10 Mar 2011 at 10:42

thats not the divas fault. what can they do when everyweek they are given 2 mins to put on the match. its ridiculous.

Stone cold wasn't for kids. He swears and sticks hismiddle finger up at people. Kids just love anything that is cool. Its not Cena's fault, its the fact wwe is pg now.

Cena used to be a right **** back in 2002-2003 with his raps.

rypt · 10 Mar 2011 at 16:37

Cena likes the move to PG though

And I agree, 02/03 Cena was awesome, his early work vs Angle was great

shaffaaf27 · 10 Mar 2011 at 18:18

also NWO failed at heels. Ask any good heel, jericho for instance, their job isn't to sell merch, it isn't to get cheered. Its to make you hate him so much you pay to see him loose. Jerivho was fantastic at that. Cole is perfect aswell. I can't wait to see jerry punch him! Jericho even told vince don't put any merchanside up of him when he was heel.
