Rekka_No_Ryo Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 The Rock made his triumphant return to WWE television Monday night on Raw, hijacking a segment of the three-hour broadcast meant (in theory) to promote his appearance at WrestleMania 32. The Rock rolled up to Miami’s American Airlines Arena in a muscled-up truck, ego enflamed, and proceeded to make his way to the ring, taking breaks to diss former foe the Big Show’s career choices, hang out with his good pal Rick Ross and flirt with Lana (who was one of his targets the last time he was on Raw) The Rock told Lana the last time they were together was in Brooklyn. Then Lana came to his hotel room and surprised him. Lana said she didn’t want to be with Rusev because he smells like rotten testicles. They got drunk and did some special exercises. Lana showed him the one legged Russian vacuum. Rusev then appears, with The Rock saying they were just talking about him. Rock says he heard they broke up, but Lana says they’re engaged to be married. Rock congratulates them and says Lana is a hell of a woman because she’s flexible as hell. Rock’s bizarre interaction with Lana was meant to embarrass her, since WWE higher-ups are still ticked off with her. Dave Meltzer said on the post-Raw edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that Lana recently said something that’s getting her a lot of negative attention backstage. “It’s probably nothing except everyone is talking about it,” said Meltzer. Previously, Lana was in the doghouse after she went public with her engagement to Rusev while they were broken up on WWE television. She also didn’t win anybody over by calling out Paige on Twitter a few months ago. Despite what’s going on with Lana, Rusev is still well liked backstage.

Bronson Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Rock is an ass for going through with that, tbh I doubt Rock was told that the intention was to embarrass her. If anything, they probably just told him "and next you'll run into Lana, give her some shit, maybe you guys slept together or whatever, then move on" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Dreadful Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 yeah, don't automatically assume the Rock would do that if he knew WWE's intentions. We all know that Dwayne Johnson is kind hearted human being that doesn't treat people like that and would not partake in that kind of pettiness. plus, besides Undertaker SCSA, and HBK, Rock is probably the only other guy that can get away with saying 'NO' to management.

lightning116 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Quite the schoolyard working environment they've got down there. "You ruined our terrible storyline, so we shall punish you on live television by having Rock call you a whore basically." How old are these people running this company, 15? Gimme a break. Honestly though, Rusev staring a hole through The Rock with that stoic face of his sold that segment for me. Rusev is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willows Way Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Petty WWE not surprised. Felt bad for Lana but man Rusevs expression during that whole thing at least made it funny and not awkwardly embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still guilty. Though, it seems Paige and Lana made up, if they were even feuding https://twitter.com/RealPaigeWWE/status/692211036171177985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eye Candy Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 If that's the case, I really feel bad for Lana because she's an amazing manager that's just sitting on the sidelines for publicly announcing a happy moment in life that "ruined" a shitty feud that wasn't going anywhere and for starting a petty Twitter war with probably the most immature diva on the roster right now.

Crazy. Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Petty as *Censored* of them. Was a great segment, won't deny it but man... just move the *Censored* on already and stop treating her like shit just for getting engaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey D. Jiggy Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Or, get this, maybe it was just a segment of Rocky doing his thing and nobody actually got punished. You don't see articles of Big Show being shat on because of backstage heat because dirt sheets know there isn't a common belief on the internet that he has heat. Different with Lana, so if we just say that it was a punishment, people will believe it. You could make an article about how Rusev got punished at the Rumble for being eliminated first within a minute and people would buy it, because there is this belief that he's in trouble somewhat backstage. Typical Rocky banter lads, nothing to see here, moving on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPC Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Rock would have to do something on the level of Hogans racisim scandal before getting on WWEs bad side. Just the fact that he's one of their Icons and has a successful movie career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
