CM Punk comes out for his match against Daniel Bryan, but Chris Jericho walks out instead of Bryan and tells Punk he is the best in the world but he didn't need to write it on a shirt. He says he is part of a dying breed, but he was a star before he got there and he had a chip on his shoulder and a bad rep in the back. Jericho says Punk is just like him, but it is because he is a Jericho wannabe like everyone else, and Punk tells him to stop. Jericho tries to cut him off but Punk says they are sick of listening, and Punk says his problem is that Jericho said he stole from him because he earned everything he has. Punk says Jericho didn't invent being the best, because he used to watch Bret Hart and asks if Jericho invented Bret or Canada. Jericho says he should laugh it up, but this is on another level because of all he has done in his career including facing legends and great moments.

Jericho says he proves that he is the best, but Punk says his voice and body language say otherwise because it sounds like he have something to prove to himself. Punk says they fought from the same places and made it, but Punk surpassed him and Jericho might have beaten Stone Cold and The Rock in the same night, but he was never the man. He says he is the best wrestler, and he swims with sharks while Jericho dances with stars and goes on game shows. Jericho says he is a bigger star than Punk and he felt ripped off, and all of the videos and fancy ring gear won't matter when he just proves that he is the best in the world. Punk says all he needs to do is point as his title and Jericho didn't need to jump him for attention, but Wrestlemania won't be the end of the world it will just be the end of his.

Champion vs Champion
CM Punk vs Daniel Bryan (w/ AJ)

John Laurinaitis and David Otunga come out to ringside with Teddy Long and Santino Marella, and Bryan jumps Punk in the corner and hits him a few times. Punk fights him off and throws some elbows while everyone else sits down at commentary, then Punk throws another elbow at Bryan and sends him to the floor as we go to a break. We get back and see Bryan kicking Punk in the corner, but Punk chops him then throws another elbow and gets a crossbody for two. Punk works on Bryan's arm, but Bryan knocks him down and drops a knee before kicking him in the chest.

Punk comes back with kicks of his own and some knees to the back, then he sends Bryan out to the floor and sets up for a plancha but AJ gets in the way. Bryan uses the distraction to attack Punk, then he throws him into the ring steps and rolls in the ring as we go to another break. Bryan has Punk in an abdominal stretch when we get back, but Punk escapes the hold and avoids a dropkick, then clotheslines Bryan a few times and drops him with a neckbreaker. Punk hits a running knee and goes for a bulldog, but Bryan shoves him off so Punk bodyslams him and hits a top rope elbow. Punk gets up slowly but ends up calling for the GTS, only to have David Otunga jump on the apron and he runs interference while Bryan tries to apply the LeBell Lock.

Punk escapes then both guys collide, and Santino knocks Otunga out with the Cobra then John shoves Santino off the apron. Bryan tries leaving with AJ but Sheamus runs out and throws him in the ring, and Punk hits a GTS but John runs in and tells the ref to stop everything. Teddy ends up getting in the ring and shoves John down and they scream in each other's faces while Punk walks up the ramp and gets attacked by Jericho. He bodyslams Punk on the top of the stage then puts him in the (REAL) Walls Of Jericho until referees run out and make him break the hold. Jericho holds up the WWE Championship and tells Punk he should enjoy it now because it will be his in four weeks, then drops the title and leaves.

Result - No Contest

Kelly Kelly vs Nikki Bella

Kelly dives at Nikki and hits a Thesz press, but Nikki comes back and throws her head into the mat then hits a snapmare dive for a two count. Nikki kicks Kelly in the corner and runs at her, but Kelly trips her up then knocks her down with a spinning headscissors and a bulldog. Brie tries to check on her sister but Kelly kicks her off the apron, then rolls through a pin attempt by Nikki and gets a bridging pin for the win.

Winner - Kelly Kelly

Miz says he will get to Cena but he has something to get off his chest, and he says there is no one who works harder than him including Cean himself. Miz goes over all of the interviews and press events he does, and says he isn't on the Wrestlemania card yet and says the fans would probably like that. He says it is a crime and he will make it right, and he will do it by beating the same guy he beat at last year's Wrestlemania because he's the Miz, and he's awesome.

John Cena vs The Miz

Miz hits the ropes and gets hiptossed, then Cena whips him into the corner and drops him with a fisherman's suplex and follows it with an elbow off the ropes. Cena goes for an AA but Miz counters with a breaker combo and a running knee lift for two, then Miz chokes him near the ropes. Cena comes back with a backdrop and a running clothesline, then he pulls Miz near the center and sets up a suplex but Miz floats over and plants him with a DDT. Miz continues the attack with a diving clothesline before heading to the top rope, but Cena ducks when he jumps and hits a shoulder tackle and a side slam. Cena picks him back up and drops him with an Attitude Adjustment, then jumps up and pulls Miz in and gets him to tap to the STF.

Winner - John Cena

Triple Threat WWE Tag Team Championship
R-Truth & Kofi Kingston vs Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger (w/ Vickie Guerrero) vs Primo & Epico (c) (w/ Rosa Mendes)

Primo runs the ropes and gets knocked down by a side kick by Kofi, then he monkey flips Dolph and Primo before making the tag to Truth. Primo gets knocked to the floor then Truth fights with Epico on the apron, but Swagger runs in and hits him then spears Kofi to the floor as we go to a break. When we get back, Truth catches Primo with a sunset flip for two, then Swagger kicks Truth and Dolph chokes him behind the ref's back. Swagger and Primo argue with each other, then Dolph dropkicks Truth and Primo steals the pin attempt and they also argue after Dolph breaks it up. Truth makes a comeback and hits a double DDT, then all three teams make tags but Kofi jumps in and dropkicks the other two men.

Kofi kicks Swagger in the corner and connects with a crossbody, but Epico breaks it up so Kofi bodyslams him on Swagger and hits a double Boom Drop. He sets up Trouble In Paradise but Dolph stops him and Truth sends him outside, then Swagger avoids a Backstabber by Epico and puts him in an ankle lock. Kofi knocks him out with Trouble In Paridise, but Primo rolls in and hits a Backstabber then pulls Epico over to make the cover on Swagger to retain. The lights go out after the bell and Kane makes his way to the ring and kicks Primo in the chest, then he double chokeslams Dolph and Epico. Kane fights off Truth and chokeslams him, then raises his arms and gets his pyro to go off before looking around and leaving everyone in the ring.

Winners - Primo & Epico

John Laurinaitis and David Otunga are talking about the Oscars when Teddy Long walks in and John tells him to get out of his office. Teddy says he doesn't want to be there, but he has some news for him and says he heard John won't be in charge next week. John says he also heard that Teddy will have to buy a ticket to next week's show because he was fired. They bicker a bit more and Teddy calls him a horse's ass before leaving and Otunga says he can't believe it.

Eve comes out to the ring and hears "hoeski" chants, but Eve says they can think whatever they want because she is a woman working in a man's world. Eve says men love her and there isn't a guy there who wouldn't mind being used by her, then she says she didn't ask for it. She says men crumble at her feet and they shouldn't blame her strengths and instead need to look at their weaknesses then she leaves the ring. Eve heads backstage and runs into Kelly Kelly backstage, and Kelly asks her why she is asking like a different person. Eve just laughs at her and walks away, then Alicia Fox walks over to Kelly and shakes her head as we go to a shot of Big Show and Sheamus getting ready.

Cody Rhodes & Mark Henry vs Big Show & Sheamus

Cody plays another "Embarrassing Big Show Moment" on the Titantron, then the bell rings so Show beats the hell out of Henry in the corner. He goes after Cody but he runs away, so Sheamus tags Show while he leaves the ring to yell at Cody and Sheamus hits a Brogue Kick for the win. Show screams at Cody and asks where he is going, then Sheamus and Show leave together while the referee looks at Henry in the ring.

Winners - Big Show & Sheamus

The Rock comes out to a huge ovation and he says he wants them to look at him now, because he is really there and he has goosebumps right now. He says this all feels good, then takes a drink of water while the fans chant 'boots to asses' and he says they are going to have a lot of chants tonight. Rock says it may be a surprise to some, but he is not there every week but he used to be because he was born there. He says he would be nothing without them, and he said he would never leave again but that didn't mean he would be at every single RAW and Smackdown. Rock says he is talking to someone in the back, and he hopes they didn't take it literally because the fans know his heart and soul are there. He says he is only there because he loves WWE and it will always be a part of him, and he thought John Cena was a phony a few years ago.

Rock says he found out Cena was the real deal because of what he said last week, but Cena says he has to go through people to talk to him when he has Rock's number. Rock says he doesn't want to talk because he has seen Cena in the back, and he wants to slap him with a piece of kung pao chicken because he is a kung pao bitch. He says Cena said something last week that got to him, and he says Cena is going to fight at Wrestlemania for all of the people who love wrestling. He says he learned long ago that no one fights for him, and no one fought when he was a good guy and got booed unmercifully. Rock says no one fought for other stars like Randy Savage and Roddy Piper because they were men, but Rock says he fights for the people.

Rock says he fights for the people because they are sick of the same kung pao bitch being shoved down their throats, then the fans chant 'kung pao bitch.' He says that is trending now, and the fans are telling Cena they are tired of him but that doesn't mean they don't want to miss out on being entertained. Rock says he coined 'fruity pebbles' and got Cena on a cereal box, then they chant 'lady parts' and 'Rocky' and he says he wants Cena to listen to them. He says they want to have fun but all Cena did this year is change his jean shorts to camoflage shorts, and it must be working because Cena's balls are missing. The fans chant 'missing balls' and Cena comes out and says he wasn't going to miss it because it is all perfect because Rock runs around and does his schtick.

Cena says he runs Rock down whether he is there or not, and he doesn't like Rock because he is a self-centered bitch who wouldn't care if WWE closed. Cena says he speaks the truth and doesn't need to write his lines down, and the fans will see Cena against Rock, but he is going to be looking at Dwayne at Wrestlemania. He says Rock will make his chest bounce and he might not have balls, but he is the guy who will kick his ass and tells him to keep trending and drops the mic and leaves. Rock says that is just like him to run his mouth and leave before he gets hit, but Cena needs to stop confusing people because Dwayne and Rock are the same person. He says Cena comes out and acts tough, but he is electrifying and will go on to kick his monkey ass if you smell what the Rock is cookin!

Awesome segment from Jericho and Punk, even though Cena and Rock were billed to confront - that was the real highlight for the show for me.

REAL WALLS OF JERICHO!

Onto Cena & Rocky though, was that legit heat!? Cena having a go at Rock for having notes on his promo etc... seemed pretty personal at times. If not, theyve got me convinced.

Rock was dire last night, Cena is owning him atm.

Kung po bitch? Really rock? That was lame. As is the obsession with Cenas balls. And as for the notes on his wrist?!

In Jericho's book he mentions that you don't see the proper WOJ very often anymore because he usually competes against guys bigger than him and it's too awkward to pull off.

Guess Punk must be the right size.

Did he really have notes on his wrist? Seems unlikely to me and if true its a really bitchy thing for cena to say IMO.

Yeah theres a pic of him somewhere... lemme go find it...

Yes yes he did. They were very clear. One said kpb and camouflage was there as well. If its a work then fine. If not rock has really slipped. And why shouldn't Cena point it out? The other way round rock would be getting praise for pointing it out

The longer the rock - cena promo was going on, the more bored I was getting. There just going over old ground that they did and said last year! Has the rock got shares in twitter or something??!?

Having said that I thoroughly enjoyed the punk - Jericho promo and it's made me that little bit more excited for their match at mania.

Lol just looked at the photo, complete work.

I'm sure after 10 years cutting 10-20 min promos and 10 years in Hollywood the rock doesn't need to write his lines on his wrist.

Enjoying the build up even if I find the content of both sets of promos bizarre at times.

All the new Cena marks are hilarious and fickle, all it takes is one (semi)shoot promo from Cena and they're all over him. They'll go back to their moaning selves once Cena is champ again within 4months.

If you look at the vids from Elimination Chamber & the Raws before it, they were blatently trying to paint Cena as the good guy who is still here and fighting for the common man and The Rock is a mercenary who cares more about movies and travelling the world...and many of you fell for it.

It seems to me that The Rock is being forced to hold back in his promos. Last year his promos were phenomenal and a bit below the belt (when he was via satellite) but now hes under the WWE roof he has to tone it down as not to bury Cena.

Whereas Cena is allowed total reign to say what he likes, I'm not as fickle enough to jump back on the Cena bandwagon just because of one promo.

The Rock wasn't as bad as some here will say, they're just annoyed because he didn't completely bury Cena with a CM Punk-esque promo. He did mention that the fans are sick with Cena being shoved down their throats & he need to be more innovative with his character. Of course everyone here will ignore that and whine because he said a few catchphrases.

But on the plus side, loved the exchange between Punk & Jericho, the only negative that it was more about who's the best in the world rather than the WWE title. I was caught up in it that i genuinely forgot about the title.

Also, could we be seeing a Big Show/Rhodes feud brewing post-mania if Shaq O'Neil doesn't happen?

Can someone please explain how boots to asses, fruity pebbles, lady parts and kung pao bitch are great chants? Maybe Americans find them good or something.

How long did the Cena Rock promo go on for half an hour or something, I'm getting bored of these promos they need to starting giving each other AAs or Rock Bottoms. 4 more weeks of just talking doesn't work well after just a year of promos.

I'm not holding out much hope, but i'm assuming the reason Cena has come out on top is to really build him up, Because i think we all agree that IF The Rock was allowed to 'shoot', he would absolutely bury Cena; which 4 weeeks before they go head to head would pretty much kill the feud.

Glad someone has a bit of perspective.

First time I've watched in months and I must say it was a good show.

Very good crowd worked very well by Jericho, Miz and the Rock.

On the two confrontations:

Enjoyed Jericho's promo and thought he made good points RE his achievements, Punk is very over with the crowd but was there any need to shoot on Miz and anyone who uses a pyro? Also Kenta and Randy savage might have had a bit to say about plagarism.

Rock vs Cena:

Good promo from the rock all in all (though I admit he had an unusual wobble/stumble in the middle) and he did make some good points RE his return, getting cena on the cereal box etc.

Cena as usual splits opinion, he stank his match with the miz up, showing the worst selling of a snap ddt and almost dropping him whilst setting up for the aa but he did burn the rock on the wrist notes thing (which I think was set up).

I can see why people dislike him as his goofy promo style just does nothing for the opponent, how can you get over when you know:

a) he is going to laugh off everything you say in the promos
b) no sell all your moves
c) go over you clean in the end

I guess the motto of the story is don't dare transcend the industry and then comeback to put people over.

The notes on his wrist were clearly work, Hollywood actors dont write there lines on there wrist. It just shows that Cena can't insult the Rock, without WWE scripting in ammunition for him. 

The Rock owned Cena with what he said, and the crowd reaction proved The Rock was right, people are sick and tired of superman Cena being rammed down there throats for so long. And the reaction even provoked Cena to break out of his PG character and start swearing, which just proves how much the Rocks comments, had got to him. 

The Rock also proved to Cena, that he can get the crowd to chant anything he wants them to chant, other top faces like Stone Cold, could get the crowd to do the same, but Cena has never ever been over enough to have that much control of a crowd. 

If 2 faces cut a promo against 1 another, then the winner is the one who gets the most positive reaction from the crowd, so the Rock owned Cena hands down.

I wish that the Rock had run-in at EC. There needs to be a bit more substance rather than continual "handbags at dawn" promo showdowns.

It is like a bad version of Frost/Nixon. It will be Rock v Cena promo part 2, 3 and 4 and then the WM match. If the Rock is just promo-ing between now and Mania, he has to be able to shoot......and Cena as well.

Is one of the most anticipated match at Mania for quite a while starting to get a bit.....well.....boring?

"Just fight and get the damn thing done with!"

More meat on the bones please WWE.

Jericho and Punk will steal the show.

Wasn't a lot of in ring action this week, but both promo's were excellent. The Y2J/Punk Promo was by far the best thing on Raw this week. I like watching Bryan/Punk but neither guy has yet to win aganist the other well cleanly anyway. They put on a fantastic match together but the outcome is always the same, I get it might de-value the other as champion but they need to be kept apart for the time being. There's some direction they can take it from this week. Like I said good promo from both guys.

Now onto The Rock, I don't think it matters what he cuts a promo on he will always have a hold on you and have you in the palm of his hand. Its just the way he goes about it, He could cut a promo about shoeboxes and you would listen. But again I'd have to agree with what has been said. They need to do more than just tear each other apart within promo's. If the Rock is back, he needs to wrestle. He needs "Warm up" matches and start to build, even a run in would do to start with. Cena wrestled this week, why can't the Rock? There are a handfull of guys who would benefit if they push The Rock to the wire and get in some offence like Ziggler.

I'd also like to point out that the WWE Tag Team Title match was good to see on the show. Good little match-up with a fair few spots with everybody in and out of the ring. The right time won, but all 3 teams were there on merit by beating each other. You see WWE Writers, thats how you build up tag team wrestling. Its a starting point anyway. Looking forward to seeing Next week's Raw now. I just hope that its not 3 sets of promo's that are the talking points next week.

I said a couple of weeks ago that I had lost all interest in Rock vs Cena, a year and a bit of promos and hype has just died a painful and slow death, for the love of God just let them loose WWE! Let them slaughter each other and get personal, one of the best things about the attitude era and the ruthless aggression era was that they let the talent rip each other to pieces and actually let their genuine problems with one and other come out.

HHH vs Rock, HHH vs Stone Cold, Stone Cold vs Rock were some of the greatest feuds of all time because they were given pretty much free reign to tear chunks out of one and other.

Just look at Hart and HBK, they had the greatest rivalry of all time because they genuinely hated each other and were allowed to let the audience see it all.

Cena has shown he can work the crowd and talk with the best of them during his heel run and The Rock is imo the greatest talker of all time, show how much they dislike each other and it will result in a lot more people getting interested and a hell of a lot more hype

I thought this raw was great, We had a epic promo between Y2J and Punk going back and forth on the mic. we had another Long and Laurnaitis confrontation. The Jericho attacking Punk again and doing a Sick Walls of Jericho. We had a Triple threat tag team match, Can't remember the last time we had that. It was a enjoyable match then with Kane being classic kane and coming out and chokeslamming everyone, that was funny. Then The Rock Promo, working the crowd like only he can and I thought he made good points about John Cena. The rock made the crowd chant "missing balls" not very PG haha, but that was so funny. can't wait for next week raw.

You seem to be missing the point a bit.

As already stated, Rock can't bury him straight off the bat. It sells nothing.

Despite the fact they have built this match for a year, they are really building a years feud in 4 weeks. Nobody is going to be interested if in the first week Rock buries Cena and lays him out.

It needs intense build up but at a fast pace. What they delivered last night; whilst not to everyones taste is the perfect starter for the feud.

I agree that Jericho and Punk will steal the show. Wouldnt be suprised if it was Dave Meltzers next 5 star rated match, whether it be the Mania match or a bout at a following PPV.

I enjoyed the two promos to be honest. Y2J/Punk was quality and it seemed to be going down the same road as Cena/Rock with Punk talking about all the things Y2J has done after leaving. I think this week's Cena/Rock was decent. I admit I was getting bored when it was just Rock (although I did have a good chuckle at a couple of points) but I think with Cena coming down, mouthing off and then leaving straight away it sets it up nicely for the next time and the tension will grow between them.

Spot on. I said yesterday The Rock if he wanted to could bury Cena in one night. He gave us a sneak peak at what he could do with Cena, saying how he's been shoved down our throats for years and now we are sick of it. What would be the point in finishing a feud basically in an week. I feel though that Cena thinks he is owning Rock, making him look like a fool, I would like to ask who convinced The Rock to set up that work with the notes on the wrist, then allow Cena to make the remark about it. Cena strikes me as the guy who says things he's never said before because of the PG era, and is getting all exited and thinking he's on top. The Rock you can see just wants to rip into him but can't. I really can't stand Cena, he was awful in the match against The Miz and makes the same comments week in week out. I wish the Rock would just list the names he's been up against and then ask Cena who the hell has he been up against in their prime. He illuded to past greats he wrestled last night, but obviously, like I said The Rock could bury WWE's top guy in a 10 min promo, not what the company wants.

All Cena has is the fact that Rock hasn't been around. Most of his other stuff is highly hypocritical and also pointless? 'Oh god, The Rock went from Wrestling to making blockbuster movies in Hollywood, he sucks'........ yeah, good one, John.

Rock has 5 years of negative comments about the Rock. And not only does he have the personal jibes between the 2 of them, he also has the fans point of view, the business point of view and his own point of view.

He could literally pull Cena apart and bury him more than anyone has been buried before.

That's literally all Cena has like you say "I'm here every week". Oh, well done John, give that man a knighthood. The Rock accomplished every thing he needed to in WWE. Had in my view the greatest rivalry ever with Stone Cold Steve Austin and was wrestling Taker, Kane, Triple H, HBK and Stone Cold in their prime. He was part of what Triple H calls the dying breed of smash mouth wrestlers, I wish the 'E' would allow the Rock to go all out on Cena. Man the guy really annoys me, if he was around in any era he would've have come close to mid-card. What does he bring to the table. Terrible move set 'Particularly the 5 knuckle shuffle', this whole Hustle, Loyalty respect campaign with 'Rise above hate' what's all that about, it sucks.

With regard to the Rock having prompts wrote on his wrists if you watch last weeks Smackdown it looked like Daniel Bryan had things wrote on his wrist strapping which he kept lokking at while he was doing his promo .

Someone brought up the point that WWE are probably reluctant to let Rock have a warm up match because of potential injury. Who could they trust on the roster to have a match with him? Ziggler perhaps?

I don't want the Rock to bury Cena early....or vica versa. My point is come week 4 will you not get annoyed of 3 weeks worth of end the show Promo battles between the Rock and Cena? Did anything transpire this week between them that makes you think next week will be any different?

It should never ever have got to the stage of them starting things four weeks before Mania. That is why a run-in at EC by the Rock would at least given them another angle, instead yet another talking match full of childish quips.

I am hoping next week, something, anything, will happen instead of Rock v Cena "The Debate: Part 2" ending the show.

If they are to have him wrestle I think it has to be Ziggler or Orton as both guys are safe and reliable in the ring whilst still being able to put on a very good match and making their opponent look strong. Just imagine Zigglers selling in a high paced Rock style match!

I would put him in the ring with Orton as whilst it wouldn't be as exciting as a Ziggler match Orton is easily the safest wrestler on the roster right now, you could make a case for Jericho but obviously he is busy in his feud with Punk.

Wouldn't put him in the ring with Ziggler or Orton, Ziggler is too green and Orton is in a bad run of form.

He will probably tag with Cena at some point with Punk against Jericho etc. He'll get a few minutes to flex his muscles.

Apparently Vince has said The Rock wont be involved in any matches whatsoever before Mania, and that he has briefed all talent to work as safely as possible with Cena and not take any risks.

It will suck bad if they do an official contract signing. Seeing as the match was made nearly a year ago, it will make no sense.

It must be nice up there on that high horse for Cena,I bet he is creaming himself thinking he is outdoing The Rock.

Last night showed why Cena is the complete detriment of professional wrestling.He comes out and legitimately makes his feelings known about The Rock,fair enough because that is exactly what we want to see.

But just half an hour earlier we had to sit and watch him once again abuse his position of power in the ring by putting on a god awful performance against The Miz.

The guy literally sucks a55 at wrestling,it's got nothing to do with what the WWE "lets him do" it's because he really blows at wrestling.Maybe if he dropped some of the muscle mass,because he looks ridiculous,and learnt to move a bit more freely then I'd take his ability in the ring a little more seriously.

Everyone literally wetting themselves because Rocky stumbled in a promo needs to calm down.Greatest mic worker in professional wrestling history,top Hollywood actor and you really think he needs notes on his arm?.It was a work from the moment it got going and it was obvious from a mile off,just look at that video of the promo Rock cuts after the show on a Cena fan to see how this guy really operates on the mic.

This has WWE garbage written all over it...trying to put their poster boy on the level of The Rock,and if you look at it clearly,it's not having any effect what so ever.Rock said it clear as day last night and the fans lapped it up "Cena has been rammed down the throats for far too long".It's actually sickening to watch the WWE try and make this guy the "man".

And yet "the man" never works hard to put other's over,his in-ring performances never give anyone else a rub.In the last seven years John Cena and the rest of Titan Towers have worked long and hard to destroy the very foundations laid by guys like The Rock,Stone Cold,Hulk Hogan.

John Cena is an actual cancer in professional wrestling and if anyone has any legitimate beef then it should be Dwayne Johnson.Because John Cena is making a mockery out of the business that made The Rock who he is today.

I wish WWE actually grew some balls,because if they won't let Cena turn heel and John won't locate his own sack to force through the turn then The Rock should be allowed free reign in his promos.He should go Hollywood 2003 on John Cena and show Hustle,Loyalty and Respect how you really ignite passion in an audience.

John Cena is a shambles and I know WWE won't turn their back on him now because they have invested too much time and too much money into him.And I know at Mania The Rock will lay down for the three count but in doing so he will make everything even more crystal clear than it already is.

He will pass the torch to a man who has no idea what to do with it.A man who has no idea how to carry a "wrestling" company and The Rock will go back to Hollywood a very happy man indeed.Hulk Hogan will always be remembered fondly,despite what he did because he knew the business,Steve Austin,Bret Hart,Shawn Michaels,The Rock,Kurt Angle will all be remembered as guys that gave everything to the business.

John Cena will be remembered as a man that cared more about his off-screen persona than being a pro wrestler.He had the gaul to use that phrase last week in his so called "epic promo",John Cena has no idea what a professional wrestler is.He is a glorified bodybuilder with all the charisma of a wooden spoon.I don't care if John Cena does the Anti-Bullying campaigns or spoons with the Make a wish foundation and neither do real wrestling fans.If your honest not one of you cares what John Cena does when he isn't on WWE TV.

Because it doesn't matter (excuse the pun) .What matters is what you do when the lights are on bright and the fans pay to watch you perform.Is John Cena value for money?...No I think i'd rather watch Batman,at least I know there a chance Bruce Wayne's spine might actually snap and even if he does somehow come out on top,I only paid £6 to get in and not £50+ to watch SuperCena pin the entire roster.

John Cena should be ashamed of himself,when he looks in the back at guys like CM Punk,Bryan Danielson,Jack Swagger,Dolph Ziggler amongst many others and he says he is fighting for them.What has John Cena ever done for anyone's career except his own.Where are all the wonderous stories about John Cena helping the "business" that he so much loves.

John Cena is a hypocrite....he calls the Rock for leaving but the jealousy oozes from his bitter face.Cena looks through the glass ceiling at The Rock riding high and he knows that even if he goes and sniffs some more roids and fist pumps Zach Ryder's a55 that he will never break through to the outside.Hollywood and the term "legend" are something that will never beckon for John Cena,the best words I can come up is "Phony wannabe".

But maybe he'll be happy...maybe he goes home every night with a smile on his face,he's made some fat kids day and he's cleaned every crevice of Vince's crack.And in five years time he will have surpassed every record ever created in WWE.....he will be known as the "most successful superstar" in WWE history.And we'll make it to Wrestlemania 35 and it'll be time for John to "pass the torch" onto......wait a minute what do you mean there is nobody to pass it to?....

Every generation has successfully paved the way for the next....when Hogan was on top,for all his faults,you always knew Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels were on the rise.When Shawn and Bret were rising you could see Stone Cold,Triple H and The Rock ready to take the mantle.When The Rock,HHH and Stone Cold were top of the mountain along came Angle,Benoit,Jericho and Lesnar.Who in turn paved the way for Cena,Batista,Edge and Orton.But only two of those names remain Orton and Cena.And whilst Orton actually puts on good matches and he makes names and puts guys over,Cody Rhodes,Christian,Wade Barrett all in the past 12 months,what is John doing....is John progressing professional wrestling?

Do you think John is going to lay down for Big E or whatever that numpty was called who could do the bench pressing?.Is John able to remove his tongue from Vince's a55 for five minutes and get these guys a spot on the roster.

Or is he happy living in the shadow of Dwayne,Steve and Terry...is he happy to be remembered as a man that stood in the way of progress instead of welcoming it.

Anybody can fool the children,I wave my hand in front of my twelve month old nephew and say "you can't see me" and he literally can't.But in the cold hard light of day my nephew will grow up and he will see me,and he will judge me.The Cenation will continue to lap up WWE's spoon fed production until they grow up,they look past the bright lights and see that John Cena is the reason that professional wrestling died.

On Raw Cena said to the Rock "You wouldn't give a rats a55 if the doors closed tomorrow" or something to that effect.Well there is only one reason why those doors would close....me thinks The Dr of Thuganomics needs a mirror and a diagnosis....because the only poison seeping through the veins of that company is him.

Wow, you really hate Cena man.

JJ i think i love you.

Any links to the Rocks promo on the Cena fan?

JJJohnson is my new hero

That would be an epic promo, it even tops what you wrote in the other thread

(for those that use ja606)

Triple H and Miz worked a dark Raw segment.

Something you didn’t see last night on Raw…

A segment for the live crowd after the Miz lost, he threw a fit and demanded that an authority figure come to the ring and give him a Wrestlemania match. Triple H came out and pedigreed and crotch chopped him.

Exactly me views, just didn't have the time you did to write them down. He is the reason I tuned out of wrestling between the age of 14-18 and now I came back and I see genuine talent like Punk Ziggler and Swagger as you said, yet it's the same guy burying them over and over and over again. I hate how he tries to make himself look like he's some sort of deciple, yes he's polite, well done. The guy brings nothing to the buisness. He can't act, cut promo's or wrestler or certainly put guys over. Orton had to move to SD because of him for peat sake, it says it all.

HHH was doing that consistently to Zack Ryder as well.

I hope not, he did a great promo on the way to the ring imo and got real heat and his vignette he put on fb was very intense and hinted at a possibe mitb win...

Miz has apparently Tweeted that he will "main event" Wrestlemania,don't know if he is going to play a part in the show or what but I hope so because he is a guy I can actually watch.

Little promo cut by The Rock before Cena came out and squashed Kane in a dark match.It's not exceptional but in just a few seconds he has the people eating out of the palm of his hand,this has literally never happened in at least five years for John Cena,if ever.

But what do you really think JJ?

JJJohnson, you deserve a medal for that haha

Good edition of Raw

Loved the bulid up between CM Punk and Chris Jericho. Good segment in the ring both did excelent. Another good match beteween Punk and Bryan runied by the 2 genreal managers. Now dont get me wrong i am enjoying this storyline it makes me laugh and it does have potential.

The Rock Cena segment was good. The Rock is such a legend. NO BALLS CENA NO BALLS CENA. The Rock won that round in my view. Even the kids were cheering for him. Cena isnt going to have any cheers come Mania at this rate (i hope) Is the Rock on Raw again next week?

HBK is on Raw next week. Things are getting gooooooooood

I've been saying that about Cena for years but all I got was heat and mockery. Simple fact is the e wont/can't create stars whilst Cena is employed.

He holds people back whether its intentional or not. If he turned heel I don't think he would mentally cope with amount of heat he would get but by a long stretch he would be the biggest heel for a long time if he did.

Rock is on every RAW until Mania and the night after!

Just watched the opening promo and match. Great promo from Punk and Y2J, but let's face it, was that ever in doubt? They are both fantastic on the mic...so I'm not surprised.

That Walls of Jericho looks sick. Good to see it applied properly.

Likewise!
