Orton says Cena will OWN the Rock

-- Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's return to WWE thus far and what people can expect when they face off this Monday on Raw: "I know them both and I know Cena a lot better than I know The Rock, obviously, but I've been in the ring with both cutting promos and wrestling. I have to say, though, talking about the whole ring rust thing, John Cena has had about 2,000 matches in the last seven years. The Rock? A big, fat zero. So when it comes to ring rust, I don't care what type of athlete you are, and The Rock is obviously an athletic dude, but Cena has been in the ring. He's been at every show and in every show and making appearances and he has been on the road with the WWE over 300 days a year for the last seven years. The Rock? Virtually nonexistent.

"You see the interviews that The Rock does and he says that he doesn't want to be known as a wrestler. He doesn't want to be known as a sports entertainer or a performer with WWE or a WWE superstar. He wants to be known as an actor. Now all of a sudden he's back in our world telling the fans what they want to hear. He's telling them, "I promise that I will never go away again. I promise that I'm back for good and that I'm here to stay." He said that, what, six or seven weeks ago? Have we even seen him live since then? No. Via satellite. I think Cena will own The Rock. I think Cena is wittier and can go off the cuff. Cena writes his own stuff, while The Rock has stuff written for him.

"It just all comes down to who you are in the ring and what kind of performer you are in the ring, and I think Cena is 10 times the performer in the ring that The Rock is. This Monday in Chicago, he'll prove it."

Ummm I am a Rocky fan .. so ..i..(>.<)..i..

I do give credit were credit is due though, Cena has been here all this time..

We'll see what the crowd thinks. I could be way, way off on this, but I'm thinking the always controversial Cena gets his mixed reaction (at least they attempt to spin the situation) tonight. And by mixed, I mean booed all the way down to Atlanta.

Yeah, I take pretty much everything Orton says with a massive grain of salt, because he's like ya know, kinda an idiot...

 

[Big Nick Dudley]

He was sticking up for his buddy, I get that. Doesn't mean he's right,though.

 

[justinsayne]

Don't get me wrong it does make sense for Orton to say that, after all Cena will still be around after WM, and Rocky more than likely won't, but Orton has just said far too many stupid things over the years for me to take anything he says seriously ever

When all is said and done Rock will still remain a much bigger star than Cena could ever hope for

Justin nailed it in his last line. Orton is doing his job to hype the show. I can safely say I dont think anyone has owned the Rock on the mic.

Orton and Cena are supposedly boys, so no doubt Orton is sticking up for him.

It's a double edged sword tonight for the WWE. On one hand, you have a hot smarky city in Chicago for tonight, but on the other, Cena will get booed out of the stadium. Apparently cities like Chicago haven't got the message that booing Cena is so 2007.

Or maybe we haven't gotten the message that it's as fashionable as ever.
