The Rock Responds to Cena. The Rock responded to Cena about the remarks Cena made about him on Raw this past week by posting a photo of  himself stomping on  lots of John Cena's Merchandise. A Cena hat, a Cena wristband , and a Cena pendant.



Can't stand Cena

I really hate that PG Cena. I can't stand that Cena. I thought I would enjoy him going old school last Monday night. When he started rapping and dissing the Rock. I was wrong I didn't like it all. I guess the damage has been done with John Cena for me. This is coming from an ex fan of his from years ago before the PG era came and left as with what we have now. I guess im kind of ashamed that I ever liked him in the first place.

Cena's rapping promo couldn't live up to The Rock's hyped "Attuide Era" promo from two weeks ago in my mind. The Rock verbally owned Cena that night. End of story. No one owns Rock in that way he did with Cena two weeks ago. Cena tried his best but his best wasn't good enough. The Rock is the Rock and no one goes up against him. Not even WWE's top babyface.

Im sure if the Rock had never left the WWE for Hollywood he would currently have John Cena's top spot in the Company. The Rock will always be over with the fans no matter how long he is gone. I hope Rock comes back this Monday and lays it the Smackdown on John Cena's candy ass.

Short Smackdown Review Dusty and Cody Rhodes/The Corre/Vicky

Cody and Dusty Rhodes, Father and son bonding at its best. This was a nice little setup from the Rhodes family. Everyone played there parts they had well. This setup was sold well by Dusty when he started to questioned Cody and his lack of goals latley.  Criticizing Cody's dashing gimmick. How the gimmick was causing him to lose focus of what really mattered. You felt Dusty was disappointed in Cody and Dusty sold it well. Maybe a little to well because you just knew that the double cross was coming after that performance from Dusty and Cody. It was very well executed. The turn comes.  Dusty turns on Rey when the end is near. Cody takes advantages of the turn and beats down Rey. Cody takes Rey's mask. I really enjoyed how this all played out.

The Corre and the Big show are not entertaining me at the moment. I hate to say that because im a fan of The Corre. I guess im just ready for this feud the end. The longer this feud plays out to me the more steam the Corre seems to lose. Wade and Bigshow's match on Friday night was bit boring to me. I didn't care for Bigshow dominating the Coree at the end of the match either. The more I see of the Corre the more I miss the old Wade Barrette lead Nexus.

Vicky leaves us after this week after her team's lost on Friday night and Edge's team won on Friday. Vickie is gone. Vickie is gone. Vickie is gone. Who can't help but repeat that over an over and not be in a better mood when they do so. Vickie is one of the most annoying figures to have graced the WWE in recent memory. Everything from her "excuse me" catchphrase to her new boyfriend of the month and everything in between has annoyed me at one point. So, to see her get fired by Teddy Long this Friday on Smackdown that left me smiling. I'm going to enjoy this for now. She will be back soon enough and by then I will have muted the TV again.

Fan's outrage at TNA is very high at the moment. TNA wrestling's newest bait and switch tactic has not gone over well with the hard-core wrestling fans. The Hype for TNA's surprise didn't come off well when fans were greeted at the end of Impact to a 3.3.11 video for Sting. A rip-off of undertakers 2.21.11 video.

TNA sets its self up for stuff like this (the anger from fans) and should welcome it (the anger) when it happens. TNA had hyped up the ending of TNA for a week or more. It was an ending that was going leave fans talking the next morning but it was not. It was an ending that had you scratching your head. The ending left you wondering if you had just tuned into a WWE program. TNA's biggest surprise of the year for the end of the show was a hyped rip-off of undertakers 2.21.11 video.

It came off as unoriginal and not creative. This was not what you expected to see at the end of the night as you were watching Impact. It was in no certain way a big surprise that TNA had hyped this big surprise like this and then didn't deliver. If you follow @TNADixie on twitter then you know the hype is greater then the surprises from TNA.

TNA is trying to piggyback off WWE once again with there latest stunt. Let me explain. When the undertaker video came out a few weeks ago it looked as though it could have been videos for Sting and it had fans talking. Fans were talking because it would have been Sting The Icon in WWE for the first time. In time for WrestleMania season to roll around. Fans were marking out over a possible Sting/Undertaker feud in WWE. A Sting/Undertaker feud at Mania. It was one of the few last dream matches left in wrestling and the fans were marking over that possibility.

After TNA creative took notice of this they started there own campaign to bring Sting back to TNA. For Some reason they were thinking that they would be able to have the same effect of markdom from the fans for Stings return to TNA. I have no clue as to why TNA thought that Sting coming back to TNA would generate any sort of  buzz for them. Sting in TNA is Sting in TNA. Nothing more.  Sting is another Veteran in TNA that will not be used in a way that could help TNA grow as a company. That is the problem.
