9 Ups And 7 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (March 7th)
1. Rocks Role?
We are now less than four weeks out from WrestleMania, and despite WWE plugging the Rock twice during Raw Monday night, there was nary a mention of what exactly the Great One will be doing at Mania.
The Rock was announced for WrestleMania some time ago, but we dont know if hes just cutting a promo, acting as host, wrestling (hes not) or appearing in his cousin Roman Reigns corner to hopefully ward off boos. While the latter is probably true, its odd that WWE would wait this long to announce what hell be doing at Mania. If youre trying to sell tickets for WrestleMania, wouldnt you want to left fans know what they can expect?
If he does simply stand in Reigns corner, he could overshadow Roman, or worse, fans could revolt against him as well. Sure, the Rock is a welcome presence, but there also is the potential for backlash, which would be quite the turnaround from how he's been received at the last five Manias.
