The Rock's Heel Promo in Toronto (Raw 2/24/03)

[MPHx87]

Heel Rock was epic, and so was heel Jerry Lawler. His commentating was EPIC for this promo. "Sold out? He sold out arenas all over the world, you idiots!" The Rock was booed and jeered for 2 straight minutes after the whole "Maple Leafs suck" comment. Who in this era of wrestling can say they can do that?

[highway61z]

one of the great heel runs of all time, the rock's run from 2003

[mauricejunior2]

wish the rock can cut promos like this again because these days he's no where near what he use to be

[EddieNeverSleeps]

The Rock owns faggot cena in every possible way.

Cena is boring as fuck. he is shit

[Joeki11a]

Stupid Neogaf mark want HEEL Rock, hey fucking marks CENA is hated for real, you can't expect the rock to have marks like you hate him in this feud.

[neptuneniq]

greatest promo of all time

[iramos4021]

@semajgnik shut up cena the rock will still whoop your ass

[semajgnik]

@iramos4021 i was being sarcastic dummy. clearly that whole notes on the wrist thing was set up. the rock never needed to write notes on his wrist before as evidence by this epic promo.

[IconiCxEternal]

''Yay, yay, we live in Toronto...Oh Shut up!'' That was priceless.

[ali25393]

cena will never reach the rock's level

[bigc21ish]

I preferred the rock as a heel whenever he was one, he was always better that way

[nandotime3000]

I thought it was great!!! The Rock was the face and the fans did start cheering for Hogan. The Rock acknowledged it and started being the Heel in the Middle of the match! Hahaha That was class!

[napra2009]

@nandotime3000 no he didnt turn heel on that match...coz in the end he hugged hogan and helped hogan to beat the living crap out of nwo...

[mirugamx]

The Rock ws always n vl fr evr b th best preformr..!

b it face o a heel, hes always has th fans.

Bt unless Cena goes heel, hes gt no future.

[Rakknar]

@mirugamx Can you speak fucking English, idiot?

[WWEVideosByHDv4]

That's Jerry lawler I want he will cheer for cena at mania

[ThehottestWWEDiva]

[qwertyuiopz123]

he must have had a blast doing this

[VF5]

@qwertyuiopz123 yeah..lol

[qwertyuiopz123]

LOL

[JGladden1989]

Rock as Heel Is Still Funny as he was as a Face

[rohitchaoji]

Crowd: Hogan, Hogan, Hogan, Hogan!

JR: They're chanting for Stone Cold here....

King: What?

[KingKurt]

@rohitchaoji They were chanting for Austin.

[rohitchaoji]

@KingKurt Then I guess I was the one who heard it wrong.

[rpb411]

If you think about it, The Rock was basically the same character whether he was a face or heel. He just used his catch phrases in different ways.

[rpb411]

The Rock was an incredible heel. He had such a connection with the people that in worked in his favor whether he was face or heel.

[johnnykov]

2:05 ROFLMAO..."SHUTTUP"

[jorge10928]

He's supposed to be heel... yet the people still cheer for him. They can't help themselves lol...

[gozips30]

@jorge10928 Cena's supposed to be a face, but most often than not, the fans cheer for the heel. The best example of this is when Y2J cut a promo with John Cena, and people chanted "Y2J", and at another point, booed Cena and chanted "Cena Sucks". There's even a video of it posted here on YouTube. Sometimes, heels just do it better. I'd be a heel of I was a wrestler (if I had the choice).

[a7xtherevrend]

@jorge10928 It's Canada. 

[HaveApascalSwirl]

He still got cheers xD



[blazer33x]

jr is so annoying

[kipoi03]

@blazer33x nah michael cole is annoying .im glad jr returned to put some life to ring side again

[jorrillabear]

ima ask you one question... can cena do this? nope. hell batista turned heel and was awesome. but could cena do this? no

[ruckfules48]

holy shit what an awesome promo !!!

The rock at his worst is 100 time greater than cena at his best !

[AdawgGonz]

this was the only time i liked the rock

[bniprezaz]

@AdawgGonz the only time?

[AdawgGonz]

@bniprezaz well that is pretty vague i admit.i do like him but i am a big big fan of heals and this rock was my favorite. so yes he might be doing great but the only time i really cared for him in his original run...
