The Rock is going to be hosting Wrestlemania 27. That much is true.
But what is the reason for WWE bringing in The Rock? Just to sell a few extra tickets? Just to get a brief jump in ratings?
The Rock is a movie star now, not a wrestler. He currently has three movies in production, including Fast Five which is in post-production.
I think Vince knew the type of reaction The Rock was going to get and The Rock had an agenda last night. The Rock was out there to bury Cena.
Why would you use one of your biggest legends, as a baby face, to bury one of your future legends whose a babyface as well? My thinking is that Wrestlemania will not be big enough for two baby faces of their calibur.
Just like Hogan turned face, when he faced Rock at WM, I believe the ground work is being set for Cena to turn heel at WM 27.
How does he do it though?
Well, I remember a while back when Bret Hart was in the picture, people thought if Cena turned on the vulnerable Hart, this would be a good way to turn him heel. It's going to take a lot to make people start hating Cena. I am still hesitant WWE will do it, I'm not sure they could do it as a PG brand.
It's also risky. Cena turning heel in a shocking way could turn kids off from WWE (then again, may be not.)
What my thought is, is that Cena will brutally attack The Rock at Wrestlemania. And align with some sort of higher power, like whoever the GM is. Unlike Bret Hart, Cena has a reason to hate The Rock now. The years of constant boos have weighed heavily on Cena and he knows it's because he could never live up to the likes of The Rock/Austin.
So nows his chance to do away with The Rock. Beat him so badly, we won't see The Rock on WWE for a longggggg time (since that will be the case anyway.) This also could set up for a match between Rock and Cena down the road, such as WM 28, or even a Summer Slam in 2012.
Either way, it gets Cena over as a heel and leaves the door open for another Rock return where he will go one on one with Cena.
So yeah, I think Cena might do something shocking to get rid of The Rock and cement his place as top heel in the WWE. And if that does happen, and Randy Orton steps up as the baby face to take Cena down, then it will suck. What, is Cena going to be the one kicking people in the skulls then? Crawling around like a garden snake.
Whatever happens, I'm pretty sure there will be some type of altercation at WM 27 involving The Rock. One of those, The Rock gets in his car and an unknown assailant drops a heavy object on it. May be the even show Cena do it.
I will be interested to see what does conspire, good or bad.
