What do you all think of Rocks heel turn in 2003? I believe this is where the The Rock concerts were born and he got a new theme as well.

Goldberg debuted against him and this was the time when The Rock began to fizzle out of WWE to only doing part time appearances here and there. So what do you all think of Rocks final run as a heel in WWE?

I didn't like him acting cowardly towards Stone Cold and Goldberg (if I remember right it was those too) and his leather vest thing he wore looked too shiny and thin :p

Loved his new theme though! It is my second favourite (the first being his old one right out of The Nation)

-Extremely entertaining to watch

-But it you analyze it,he sucked as a heel as Hollywood Rock.He depended too much on cheap heat.

-Watch the Toronto promo_One of the most entertaining promos of all time.But to call it a great heel promo is stupid.He was getting cheered and people only booed him when he insulted the city

-My favourite segments was when he completely owned Hulk Hogan via pre-recorded segments

Hurricane-Rock segments was funny as hell, Rock calls out Goldberg was great, Rock hit him from behind was funny, his reaction when he left outside the ring was well funny. If Rock carried on after Backlash, he would've joined Y2J-Christian 2 beat Goldberg up

lol it was funny as ****.

He did a great job reinveting his character, and the thing that I enjoyed the most about this run is that he didn't rely on catchphrases much to produce a great promo. It was entertaining while it lasted, he tried his best to make it work, but I don't think the fans really wanted to hate him.

Excellent heel work, but too over to be booed, much like Stone Cold during his heel run.

he turned heel after he lost to brock lesnar in sumer slam. wwe wanted brock lesnar to become the new face of wwe, as someone more talented then the rock finally came.


As entertainer rock is the best in wwe history.He is quick, great on mic. As real wrestler, great athlete brock lesnar is best.

Cena lucked out that those 2 stayed out of business.
