8 Times The Rock Proved He CAN Cut A Bad Promo
1. The Rock (And Roman Reigns) After The Royal Rumble
Equal parts smarmy, aggressive, and utterly non-sensical, this joint promo came off as poorly as one could imagine. It's weird to consider that of the two men involved in this interview, Roman Reigns actually made a much better impression.
Not only did The Rock constantly step on his nephew's toes and try to steal his thunder - Roman just won the Royal Rumble and was asked how that felt by the interviewer, but guess who steps in to speak first - but he also wildly changes the tone of the interview every other second like he's having emotional hot flashes.
One minute he's cracking lame non-sequiturs about Samoan pancakes and the next he's looking pissy and telling the interviewer "you're getting fired" for asking about Roman's next opponent, Brock Lesnar.
Look, as much as everyone loves The Rock, this was clearly Roman's moment. Let him have it and stop rambling about things that don't make any goddamn sense.
