A great time to be a fan of wrestling in general. WCW was still a rival, there were fun wrestling games on PS1/N64 (No Mercy = GOAT), wrestlers got famous in a more organic way, and so forth. About a year or so after WCW died my interest in wrestling fizzled out. I think Rock vs Hogan was the last time I was truly into wrestling. Afterwards it became a thing where I'd check on it now and again just out of curiosity.

So it’s not happening at Wrestlemania 40. He wants the long build. You also have to take in consideration that it might take him a year to get ring ready so he doesn’t injure himself and ruin any films he may be filming for. Maybe Wrestlemania 41. It could be a John Cena vs The Rock type build. Rock can prevent Bloodline interference and allows for Cody to beat Roman for the belt and Rock can raise Cody’s arm in victory. Rock and Roman can set up their dream match for Mania 41 the Raw or Smackdown after Mania.

The fact that this man is celebrating that he owns his own name is crazy to me . I understand the wwe made him in some way ,but the fact where having a conversation about this is kind of mind blowing .happy that he owns his trade mark which is rightfully has always been his

The Undertaker, Rock and Stone Cold was the savior of WWF/E. During the attitude era these 3 carried the company past WCW and came out victorious. These 3 paved the future for WWE. Vincent understands this and these 3 will forever be in shrined. Rock earned the rights to his name.

@PeterTeehan: Yeah, The Rock, Steve Austin, Undertaker & Triple H ran that Attitude era & it was amazing! Sidenote: John Cena, Randy Orton, Batista were part of the Ruthless Aggression era more so than the attitude era which was 1997-2002, while ruthless aggression was 2002-2008 So those guys were more after they changed their name to WWE from WWF.
