With The Rock made his return to Raw next Monday, awaited John Cena had harsh words for "the most electrifying Man in sports entertainment" on the show this week, saying: there was no Champion of the people, but it is a champion with people (referring to the entourage around him).

Talent commented by PWInsider (courtesy of be cited under condition of anonymity) the text: "[Rock] just use WWE to return public, he lost this Disney films, which is very well, but he was on a one year and the name, has contributed to a greater star since." No one.
"It is for him, he keeps for him and he keeps a person who is actually filmed here throughout the year to a larger salary to the largest watch." It is that in fact the "largest" mania of all time. OK, then what to do the rest of the year? Who is fact? That he took any blame survivor [series] not drawing? Although of course not, but how compete you with a guy on the Titantron? Nailed cena the guy died the evening.
"Say anything about HHH, Taker, etc. is still in the top spot but if they were necessary to the work of the road, they would, and they would still be working their asses as much as they should." Rock is the Rock and the idea that it is here to better other than its own portfolio is the largest work of 2012. »
