The Final Boss ruined all gimmicks for me. There will never be a cooler character in wrestling.
Literally stolen from njpw but ok
Just imagine if after Steve Austin won the world title at WM14, Vince McMahon just said "meh i'll just operate at a office building from now on". That's pretty much what happened between Final Boss Rock and Cody
>>20023533Yeah that’s cool and all, but it would have been cooler if it was intercut with shots of the audience every half a second.
Final boss rock was amazing. Then rock came back on the netflix debut as a baby face. Then rock said it was ok to break kayfabe bc wrestling is fake. That killed the gimmick. Without vince, all these guys like to sniff their own farts.
>>20023530
>>20023633You get it anon
>>20023524It was great until I want your hole
>>20023524If it was a video game then rock would've been the actual final boss and roman would've been a decoyThe entire build was cody vs rock because cody vs roman had no chemistry, he was just the guy holding the title
>>20023524Go to bed Dwayne
It was just Dwayne jerking himself off
>>20023524Yes because the circumstances were unique. The main thing nobody could've guessed was how hard Rock would throw himself into the pivoted story. 20 minute twitter promos to call Cody a bitch, unadvertised Raw appearances, it was fucking glorious
>>20023563/thread
>>20023524I loved his last few appearances where he added some occultist implications to the character. I saw someone post something like how he gave Cody a look of 'You know, I know people who eat people, so just go along with me, alright?', and that's exactly the sort of thing I was picking up on with his whole 'I want your soul' stuff. Wish they could've gave payoff to that sort of thing, made sense for Travis Scott to be around with the whole Astroworld connection too. Would've been TOP kino but we'll probably get nothing of it now unless Rocky is seething about what Punk said to Roman recently
He's nicknamed after a video game trope
>>20024009Imagine if the epstein stuff had happened a year earlier when the rock did the hollywood I want your soul thing. Could've been kino
>>20023524Are you 12?
>>20024688pedo
>>20023530>>20024688Batista's attire from SVR11 was very similar but none of you newfags actually remembers it
lightning in a bottle? more like dogshit in the toilet, am I rite fellas?
>>20024797I'm not a WWE fan but thanks for asking.
>>20023524he was like vince mcmahon and hollywood hogan as played by the rock. wrestling was red hot when vince left and then hhh fumbled it and burned the rock.
>>20024995no lie detected
>>20023533Actual kino
>>20023980>20 minute twitter promos to call Cody a bitchKEK that was based
>>20023524Bittersweet run because it didn’t really get an ending either.
>>20023563>>20023642I don't get it. Rock had the perfect career resurgence that he was looking for but then ran away to go be le 7 bucks man again
>>20023524More like a shart on a long plane ride.
>>20023524There was so much left on the table but Rocky is a Hollywood faggot. Heel Cena aligned with the Final Boss Rock could have been kino
>bad promos in the modern era, rambling to no one about nothing like he's still got it >unable to properly wrestle due to hollywood insurance policies>being stapled to a faggot rapper it was a disaster from the start.
>>20023524Yes, Ranjit. Lots.
Didnt ROcks ddoctor tell him his heart is about to explode and that he cant roid anymore or something? He will never come back. His ego is too big to show up again looking like a melted action figure.
>>20023563This
>>20023533>That cam angle>Imagine getting size mogged by a guy that is 15-20 feet away from you>Imagine if the Rock's opponent wasn't a curtain jerking shitterTranny Rhodes and his fans are literal sub-species
>>20023533HOLY BASED
>>20023524lets get this party started
Dwayne is the only real star left.
>>20030509clock it
>>20024995Dogs don't shit in toilets.
>>20031611Hence why it's special yet in the end still just shit.
>>20031623high iq analogy
The Final Boss story leading into WM40 is the best thing WWE has done in probably 25 years and the payoff at WM40 was perfect.
>>20031627heh, anal-ogy.
>>20023524Sounds like it came from the same retard that created yeet, otc, the bloodline, the vision, etc. Souless, corporate, sanitized uninspired slop. That shit don’t hold a candle to DX, the Texas rattlesnake, NWO, the heartbreak kid. The fed needs more rebelliousness, and that’s a shoot
>>20031595Tony Khan paying off Meltzer to give his random shitters 5 star matches doesn't make them real stars in the eyes of casuals or normals.
>>20023524Yes, Rock is the last draw in wrestling. Notice how no one gives a damn about Mania this year because hes not coming. Thats why tickets are slow
>>20023524I have rock fatigue.
