Why the Rock won’t (or shouldn’t) take the belt from CM Punk at the Royal Rumble this Sunday…

So the Royal Rumble ppv is this Sunday, which is the beginning of the road to Wrestlemania. Will I watch this Sunday’s Royal Rumble? Not sure. Probably not. I usually watch the Royal Rumble every year too. Why? Simply because I don’t like WWE ppv’s anymore. When I try to watch one, they aren’t as exciting and fun anymore as they used to be. Maybe it’s the PG era, I don’t know… but the main reason, I’m not going to watch it is that it will be too predictable. John Cena will probably end up winning the 30 Man Rumble match up ’cause he’s probably gonna main event Wrestlemania like every year.

The Rock is set for a title match against CM Punk, a match before the 30 Rumble match. CM Punk has had a long title reign. More than 430 days, I think. Punk has been WWE Champ for more than a year, I believe. Punk has this gimmick where think he’s the “Best In the World” ’cause he’s WWE Champ and all the things he has accomplished in wrestling from the past, so he thinks he deserves more respect from people since he’s considered a heel right now. The Rock shouldn’t be the one to take the title from Punk. Why? For a few reasons: 1) It will make Punk’s “Best In the World” gimmick look weak and we can’t have that 2) The Rock is not around WWE that much, he has all kinds of movie projects coming up and he’s already been champion like 16 times. We don’t need to give the belt to the Rock again. The Rock already accomplished so many things and he doesn’t need another title run. Punk should retain. I think the main event at ‘Mania should be Punk vs. Cena. I certainly don’t want the Rock vs. Cena again, we already had that last year.

Of course, it wouldn’t surprise me that the Rock will be winning the title, anyway, and go against Cena at Wrestlemania.

I don’t like the way WWE is going today, but I still respect and love all the performers, though. I just want a better product and want them to bring back good wrestling. RAW hasn’t been good the last several weeks. Some of the writing of the shows, just make me want to puke. Especially the lame Daniel Bryan and Kane team up, so lame.

Wrestling is indeed, no longer the same anymore, it’s really sad. Wrestling used to be amazing back in the earlier days, but it’s gone down to shit. What happened?

The only positive I have about today’s WWE, is that Ryback is an awesome character. I keep watching ’cause of that guy. He’s got a resemblance to Goldberg. Ryback is a badass, look him up if you don’t know who he is. If we had the Attitude era today, Ryback would be even more of a badass. He’s a great wrestling character.

Back to the Rock, I like the guy and all, but he doesn’t need to go back to wrestling. He should concentrate on his movie career and let the younger wrestlers get their chance at the spotlight.

One thought on “Why the Rock won’t (or shouldn’t) take the belt from CM Punk at the Royal Rumble this Sunday…”

  1. I’m disappointed that they haven’t had The Rock wrestle in his previous appearances on Raw and Smackdown. I hope that Punk wins too, but not Punk Vs Cena at Wrestlemania. We’ve already had that feud. We need an unpredictable Rumble winner, but sadly I don’t see WWE taking that risk. I agree it’s gonna be Cena winning the Rumble, which would be shit.
    I would personally like to see Undertaker make a surprise appearance at the Rumble and win it, then go against Punk at WM, making it a “Title Vs Streak” match. The build up would be good. People would say “End the streak, then we’ll call you the best in the world”, and Punk wins.
    I don’t see the WWE making such a move though. Would be a good storyline though.
