Howdy there everyone,
As you may have read on WWE.com, Rock was unable to appear on RAW the day following Wrestlemania 29 because he had been injured during his match with Cena.
Word coming out of today is showing a whole new side the Brahma Bull.
Apparently Rock suffered a legitimate injury during his match which when it finished he “stormed out” of the building without seeing any of the WWE doctors/trainers and flew home to see his own team.
On his Twitter account, Rock posted…..
”Injury update: Dr's & I elected not to reattach tendons to my pelvis. They'll just scar up. Now I prep to shoot HERCULES #TheDemiGOD”
Rock has been seen at the gym training up for his new movie which has led many backstage to wonder just how serious his injuries actually are. And the fact that he left just after his match and didn’t bother to get in touch with WWE until the next day has left many people wondering.
Another reason that Rock may have left abruptly from the building is because he was throwing what I’m gonna call a “temper tantrum”. Apparently Rock was upset that the plans for his match at Wrestlemania changed on the day. Rock was originally planned to retain the title at Wrestlemania and then drop it at Extreme Rules.
Personally, I can see why the creative changed it. There would’ve been no point in Cena losing at Wrestlemania because of the build up that had built up with Rocky. From losing at last years Wrestlemania and for most of 2012, to then winning the Rumble and having all that momentum, it wouldn’t have made sense. And the fact that the Rock is scheduled to be shooting Hercules between now and then, it wouldn’t have made sense for the Rock to be the champ. That and he didn’t actually do a good job of promoting his Wrestlemania match, AS THE WWE CHAMPION SHOULD!!!!!
“Despite what you see during interviews with John Cena and The Rock, there is legitimate heat between the two and they simply don't get along in real life. The two are said to be "cordial" backstage but there is a "battle of egos" and you can tell there is tension between the two according to those backstage.
As noted the day after the WrestleMania 29 pay-per-view, there was "absolute panic" backstage at RAW the following night in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The show was scheduled to build to a segment where Brock Lesnar beat up The Rock to set up next year's WrestleMania main event. The problem was that The Rock was not there and went home. Vince McMahon, the writers and producers rewrote the show, most specifically the opening segment. The Rock was actually scheduled to open RAW with a promo about losing the WWE title to John Cena, only to be attacked and taken out by Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman. This would set up the WrestleMania 30 main event.
In addition to the opening segment being re-written, there was a second major angle to set up the main feud going forward and the Extreme Rules main event involving John Cena's next title defense. The Rock was said to be involved in that, which of course led to further revisions.”

Well, there you have it. Another reason for me to hate on the Rock! He’s just a big old cry baby who when he doesn’t get what he wants, leaves. So much for ‘The People’s Champ’! HA!
Have fun everyone.
