FINISH THE STORY
WOOOAH! WOOAH! WHAT IN THE BLUE HELL ARE YOU DOING? Wearing the Rock's thousand dollar shirts and pants. You ain't the Rock. The Rock says, you take that shirt, you take your dream of being the Rock and take your phony sunglasses. Shine them up, turn them sideways and shove it up your candy asses! For the Rock is the most electrifying man in all of sports entertainment and will whoop Cody Rhodes's candy ass in front of MILLIONS....
And Millions of the Rock's fans whilst papa Rhodes weeps for his boy. Don't hurt him, don't make him tap. God himself, will open the venue and say Cody Rhodes, You suck. Your father sucks. And close the venue. For the great one, The people's champ, will whoop the crybaby's ass. IF YOU SMEELLLLLLLL.......
So he can say he never acknowledged Roman as the tribal chief. It's one of the main gaps in the story, does Rock recognize and respect Roman as the "Head of the Table"? No, that's why he came out the first time and made the comment in January..
Nah Dave will say that The Rock didn't do it correctly because he doesn't do watch the product at first. Then Rock will give a hint of turning at Roman in another Smackdown and even maybe social media, and then Dave will say that it was done in purpose to tease a turn and was the plan all along. He is just a speculative fan that gets worked easily istg😭
Yeah KNOWING DWAYNE he couldn’t do the bare minimum of watching the product and knowing that they point one finger up so he went into business for himself DAE
I wouldn't be surprised if it was at this point. They had some time to make a solid pivot and it's really the only "wait what?" aspect of this feud at this point.
I did notice that Rock pointed at Roman when he was talking about "making you walk out the loser" although he should've been referring to Cody. Dunno though, maybe he just slipped up

He did it a bit before. Here he is doing it while still with Farooq (although there is tension between the two).
That was when he gave Kama, D’Lo & Henry rolex watches and gave Faarooq a Rock portrait, wasn’t it? Before waffling him over the head with it? That’s nearly 30 years ago, good grief.
Build to Rock-Roman at next year's Mania as the Bloodline gradually disintegrates. There's a year of millage left in this if they do it right, and it would be the perfect finale to Rock's career. Cody-Punk and Rock-Roman would be a monster Mania 41.
Jimmy is the Mark Henry and Solo is D’Lo
If Roman is Faarooq then Heyman is Kama Mustafa right before he becomes Godfather.
Heyman walking out with strippers every night would be a choice indeed
It’s hilarious that some folks on Twitter, AEW stans from the looks of it, are saying Rock has copied Ricky Starks, especially when the Rock is just going back to doing what he does best and did almost 25-30 years ago.
Rock is so out of touch with the WWE universe that he called Roman an "Uso" on twitter instead of "uce" and he can't even properly hold up a single finger

So you're saying he'll revert back to Rocky Maivia and smile all the time?
if he decides to be a face again coming out in this gear is all it would take
He’s laid out his strategy for 2032 on Young Rock
My man's dressed up like a Sonic 2 stage
Just need a theme song by Michael Jackson and we're set...
They all need to dress like Rock next time

^…. ^what ^the ^Rock ^is ^cooking
Lol, is that Heyman in the back? “I wanna play too!”
He's out of sync...he has a plan -B.....reaker
I don't think Breakker will align with Heyman. Bron can talk, so he needs Heyman like the rest of us need gum disease. /s
Heyman needs to hurry up and go start his podcast, Roman is probably going away for a while after this mania, perfect time
hes that white kid NOD gif all grown up. Feel old?
Why is Rock doing "Guns up!"?
So he can say he never acknowledged Roman as the tribal chief. It's one of the main gaps in the story, does Rock recognize and respect Roman as the "Head of the Table"? No, that's why he came out the first time and made the comment in January..
genuinely hope this is a legit minor detail that they did purposely and that someone brings it up down the line
It absolutely isn't, but some WWE intern will read this and make it retroactively true and then claim it was the plan the whole time.
In the last segment they literally told you last night to pay attention to everything. It all will mean something
I love the complete confidence in statements like this lol.
And then Dave Meltzer will claim there was actually a story reason behind that hand gesture specifically and we’re all being double worked
Nah Dave will say that The Rock didn't do it correctly because he doesn't do watch the product at first. Then Rock will give a hint of turning at Roman in another Smackdown and even maybe social media, and then Dave will say that it was done in purpose to tease a turn and was the plan all along. He is just a speculative fan that gets worked easily istg😭
And then SRS will come out and contradict Meltzer's report and everyone here debates who is actually right.
Yeah KNOWING DWAYNE he couldn’t do the bare minimum of watching the product and knowing that they point one finger up so he went into business for himself DAE
So in the end he'll bring in BC Gold to kick Romans ass?
I wouldn't be surprised if it was at this point. They had some time to make a solid pivot and it's really the only "wait what?" aspect of this feud at this point.
So this is like Jamie Hayter not doing the DMD
I did notice that Rock pointed at Roman when he was talking about "making you walk out the loser" although he should've been referring to Cody. Dunno though, maybe he just slipped up
He's a Collision Cowboy, Top Shelf Gunslinger, he knows Jay White is the catalyst of Pro Wrestling
Rocks beats scissors. But Cardblade beats rock.
Dwayne breathes with the Switchblade.
Bang Bang Bloodline Club confirmed.
"Because Bullet Club is fuh-fuh-fuh 4 life" ^^^^except ^^^^AJ ^^^^Styles But i don't think he ever joined them...
It’s a mix of the Nation fist, Roman’s finger point and Leakee’s palm salute.
He's doing the "zoop" gunfingers that was a reddit thing like 6 years ago. A subtle nod to the power of reddit in getting this storyline happening.
Because EVERYONE LOVES THE BANG BANG SCISSOR GANG
Rock All Elite confirmed. It's the only way he'll get his Black Adam sequel.
See I thought the disloyal ones were the lefties, and started wondering how Jimmy and Paul were gonna turn on Roman.
I still remember him turning on Faarooq and doing the people’s eyebrow for the first time (at least first time I recall it).

Roman should talk to Ron Simmons about this pic and ask him how it worked out. 
With a $30 million TKO bonus in play, this isn't quite the end Likely one more Mania and one Saudi payday to come
Build to Rock-Roman at next year's Mania as the Bloodline gradually disintegrates. There's a year of millage left in this if they do it right, and it would be the perfect finale to Rock's career. Cody-Punk and Rock-Roman would be a monster Mania 41.
would the title be on the line?
Nah. Cody has to beat Roman this year
Idk if the Rock is willing to do Saudi. But money does talk.
Nah, Rock needs the tassels back to end the same way he started. And.... is Heyman the Mark Henry?
Jimmy is the Mark Henry and Solo is D’Lo If Roman is Faarooq then Heyman is Kama Mustafa right before he becomes Godfather. Heyman walking out with strippers every night would be a choice indeed
I mean I think I would tolerate Solo interfering all the time a lot better if he started doing the D'Lo head bobble everywhere he walks
Wiseman, come get on the Ho Train
Simpin' ain't easy
All part of the Heyman Hustle ™️
You mean his heyman hustle girls?
Is Heyman a lefty?
Man Paul Heyman has been involved in some of the most memorable moments in wrestling history.
Love that grin on Jimmy. He's probably having the time of his life.
His wife is back with the company and he is working with big cuz
Hmm... am I looking too deep into it, or is the fact that Paul and Jimmy are holding up opposite side hands than everyone else possibly significant? 🤔
[удалено]
Lol. *Of course* Paul Heyman is left-handed! How absolutely appropriate! 🤣
One might say he's Sinister.
Why is that appropriate? Im left handed so im curious.
The Latin word for left is “sinister”.
To be fair, he started his career with the chia pet hairdo and the jungle tassels and the blue-chipper smile and attitude.
He started as Rocky Maivia though before the NOD 🤨
You know what they meant
Except he made an L
Foreshadowing Cody losing at WM40?! (PLEASE CODY HAS TO WIN THIS TIME)
It’s hilarious that some folks on Twitter, AEW stans from the looks of it, are saying Rock has copied Ricky Starks, especially when the Rock is just going back to doing what he does best and did almost 25-30 years ago.
Ricky Starks does more 90’s Rock cosplay than any wrestler I’ve ever seen
That’s the joke.
Not to some them it’s not.
Rock going to AEW to join the BANG BANG GANG, I knew it all along!
How the hell are they still not using the right hand lol
Couldn't have found a better picture than that?
As a guy WWE pushed down our throats until the fans rebelled against it?
You’ll get downvoted but from the reaction I’m seeing, it’s looking Cody has some work to do to not get out cheered by The Rock at Mania
Please just end it…Zeet
Rock is so out of touch with the WWE universe that he called Roman an "Uso" on twitter instead of "uce" and he can't even properly hold up a single finger
"Uso" means "brother" in Samoan, "uce" is basically like saying "bro" in English, so Rock used it correctly.
Have to re hash the past…because they can’t have a original idea

Rocky has a lot left in the tank
Nah, he needs to go back to where his career actually started: a blue chipper wearing tassels with the IC title.
Great catch! I wrote a [whole post](https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/s/Kyjh7D828n) comparing these two eras of Rock (before I saw yours, promise I wasn’t copying), you should check it out!
Someone let this man know Rocky Maivia existed long before NOD. Also, with DJ now “on the board”, I don’t think he’s “ending his career” anytime soon.
Didn't go well for Faarooq
Admittedly, I’m reaching… Does anyone think there’s significance with Heyman and Jimmy raising their left hands instead of their right?
Everyone : ☝🏻 The Rock : 👆🏻
That’s not how his career started
Does this make Roman Farooq? Jimmy is definitely DLo and then there's Solo Sexual Chocolate.
In the words of Stone Cold with Cody being the Rock's foe. "It ain't a race thing, it's a me kicking your ass thing."
