10 Weirdest Moments In The Rock's WWE Career
2. Pie Eating Contest
Everyone knows that The Rock loves pie. Big, little, chocolate, vanilla. He even made a song dedicated to it, collaborating with Slick Rick called... Pie. But we all know his favourite kind.
Throughout late 2004, he made several sporadic appearances to "layeth the smacketh down" on the likes of Evolution. However, he made a very surprising return to host a pie-eating contest on an episode of RAW as part of the Diva Search that year, in which the likes of Christy Hemme and Maria Kanellis were participants. This wasn't the first time the 'Jabroni beating, pie eating' Superstar would be the judge or such a spectacle. He had already done so on an episode of Sunday Night Heat, taking place at WWF New York, years prior.
It's also weird looking back on, particularly how the female roster was still showcased as eye candy. The Rock's lines, guessing what the contestants were thinking, "I am getting so wet" and "easy fella" referring to his Johnson leaves a bad taste in the mouth, and that's got nothing to do with the pies, even though it was all in jest.
Coachman took a People's Elbow at its conclusion though. Every cloud.
