8 Times The Rock Proved He CAN Cut A Bad Promo

7. The Rock Finally Gets Too Weird With Lilian Garcia

The Rock had a great many interviews with Lilian Garcia, talking about The People's Strudel and making great use of pastry-related double entendres.

And normally, I'm all for having The Rock act all goofy with the cute announcer.

But the overtly narcissistic and body-obsessed version of The Rock never quite got over the way it should have. He's not Rick Martel, he's not Rick Rude...and having The Rock take off his shirt and flex his bicep is amateur hour. That's not the kind of thing The Rock should be doing leading up to his big match against Goldberg.

It's barely funny - despite Lilian's constant cracking up - and it only validates those who believe The Rock defaults to jokes to make his promos easier to swallow.
