Give another 5-7 years of buildup before that made him what he is. So even if you started watching WWF at 12 years old you would have to be early to mid 20's to really understand how huge he was. Seeing as how this is a family oriented WWE now most of the kids there really had no idea what was going on. They were like.. Why is the Tooth Fairy in the ring?

As awesome as it is seeing him on WWE television, and as amazing as his promo was, I can't help but think it's a little detrimental to the WWE. Don't get wrong, the ratings for RAW and now the buyrate for Wrestlemania will surely go up, but... With that one promo, he made every single other WWE superstar on the roster right now (with a couple exceptions), look absolutely and utterly pathetic on the mic. No one even comes close right now, and that's pretty sad.

Even during his reign, THE ROCK has made the rest of the roster look like idiots on the mic, with the exception of a few. The attitude era era also featured an edgier Jericho and Edge, look at them now, not as great on the mic, why? the WWE perspective has changed. They have to change if they are to succeed. Let them two run their mouth like THE ROCK was allowed to do in the ring and they will come maybe 1/4 of what the bar is. The attitude era had WAY MORE personality than what the fools are now.
John Cena tho, I'd like to see a heel turn. Can they do it? can you get the younger generation to BOO Cena? hard to say

If you watch some of Cena's old promo's he was pretty funny but there is only so much you can do with PG. Cena has eluded to it several times during his promos. Jericho was pretty good and The Miz is actually pretty good as well. Like I said though they are all just held back by the whole PG thing. You take The Rocks promo and make it like everyone else (They obviously just let him run his mouth this one time for old times sake) and it wouldn't have been half as epic as it was. How many times did The Rock say "ass" ? I don't even think he can do a promo without saying it so what are they going to do?

The Rock said he is back and will "never" leave again....
im assuming his contract is like Booker T, Steve Austin and Kevin Nash where they get paid per appearance
Nash came back as Diesel at Royal Rumble this year.
i highly doubt he quit acting for good.. at least this probably secures it that The Rock can make several appearances the entire year after Wrestlemania and not have to wait another 7 years..

The WWE really hit the jackpot with THe ROCK
Major media outlets has picked up his return, the ratings were huge, WWEshop online apparently crashed cuz everyone wanted that "I BRING IT" tee
Its a great lead to wrestlemania.

Ah brings back memories. The best days were the Stone Cold vs The Corporation feud. Every week Austin was doing something crazy like driving a zamboni into ring and jumping off it to hit Vince, It was awesome.

I'm actually interested in watching wrestling again, never thought that would happen! Watching old clips brings back old memories of watching it with my grandpa.

wow I never knew triple H married stephanie mcmahon for real lol...
then again i stopped watching around 2000 or 2001 i believe so was out of the loop
back then when I was a kid watching the show I remember one episode they showed triple H drugging her and marrying her via a drive-by marriage in vegas in order to get back at vince.
back when I thought wrestling was real XD

SMACKDOWN HOTEL! on Know Your Role Blvd. and Jabroni Dr.
I too grew up watching The Rock and never really caught on with the newer generation liking John Cena. The Rock had much better talent on the mic than Cena will ever have.
