Now im not going to "bash" you, im going to explain my view on what you just posted.
Ok so i bolded 2 of your points.
1st point. What makes Steve any different from Dwayne?
The difference is this
Steve walked out because of problems with his boss. Has nothing to do with betraying his word against the fans. Then he retired from the ring because of his physical condition. If you look back and research WM 19 steve austin story, you'll see, the morning of WM 19, Austin thought he was about to die...call me crazy but when that comes across your head, i think its fair to retire.
The Rock left AND PROMISED he would be back soon. 7 years is not soon...AND also he said that he was BACK and NEVER leaving everytime he showed up somewhere.
2nd Point. You are looking at the wrong thing that people are bashing Rock for. We are bashing Rock because he went against his word saying "WWE is my life!", do you recall an interview where the person said "So Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson" and he goes "Don't call me that, it's Dwayne Johnson" <---where is the WWE Dwayne?
Uh, let me start with this people bash Dwayne because he "Promised" to come back soon, really? Really? Okay let me say this, when Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson made said statement it was at Backlash 2003... He came right back in 2004, or did you forget about his match at WMXX with Foley? Problem solved.
2nd point in that interview he did not say "Don't call me that, it's just Dwayne," either that or all the videos I've watched edited that part out. he said, " It's Dwayne," the reporter apologized then he said "No, it's okay, The Rock works too." In another interview he said "From now on please call me Dwayne Johnson. I want to be known as Dwayne Johnson the actor, and not The Rock. " Everybody knew where Dwayne came from, that's how they Identified him by his stage name. His stage name is not his name so why would he want to go by it all the time? I mean I was upset that he left WWE as well but lets be realistic about him renouncing his ring name, it's his ring name.
