Article seems pretty accurate. Rock's not going to change his formula. People aren't paying to see him reinvent self and he really isn't putting the time in to do that either.
When Austin feud with Punk he's going to be Stone Cold. It's going to be a straight flashback as well.
Unlike the Cena feud though at least it's entertaining even if Rock is only at a C level nowadays.

i'm not talking about the 20 minute Evolution esque rant he did by himself. promo started when dwayne came out.
Re: Official The Rock vs. CM Punk Discussion Thread
I think this could be Punks breakout moment. even though he had that with Cena,to some extent, Cena just isn't that special enough to build a fully fledged star. In a sense, feuding with Cena can gold you back in many regards.

The Rock can't do anything right with some people, 7 appearances in the month, practically full time for the next 3, but his catchphrases are the same!!

No, there was. I forgot what it was, but the last thing CM Punk said was really out of left, but the way he said it with utter conviction made you believe he believed it. I really liked Punk in this.

Rock did most of the talking. Punk had 2 exchanges and while they were both impressive none were a burial. It's basically you're stick is old and you can't compete with me. Then he stole a line from someone else and the IWC jizzed their pants. Good line not his though.
I give Punk alot credit he cut an amazing promo and did it without attacking the Rock and trying to lessen his appeal.
