“What’s worse…Dancing With Celebrities or Playing With Muppets?”

RAW SUPERSHOW 10/31


Tonight’s WWE RAW Supershow kicks off with Michael Cole welcoming us. The Rock’s music begins to play and we see him on the big screen in a pre-recorded video shot earlier today it says. The Rock talks about John Cena wanting him to team up at Survivor Series. Rock says Cena represents an era and a generation, but he also represents an era and a generation. Rock says Cena asked him from the heart and he felt it. The Rock says hell no, from the heart. Hell no, again, and again. The Rock says in order for he and Cena to be a tag team, he would have to slap the skin on his hand in a match. Rock says he would rather slap Cena in the mouth. Rock says Cena wants Team Bring It to team up with Cena and the Fruit Loop Troop. No, hell no, no way, says The Rock. Wait a minute. Rock says then he started to think about it and listen to all the tweets coming to him on Twitter from fans. Rock says Team Bring It hates The Miz and R-Truth. Rock says it’s about what the people wants. And what the people want is to see The Miz and R-Truth gt their jabroni asses kicked at Survivor Series. Rock says Cena’s wish just came true. For one night, he and Cena will be a tag team and they will face The Miz and R-Truth at Survivor Series. Rock says Miz and Truth have become hated but they’ve done it from the back like cowards. Rock tells them to try and come do it to him. Rock says he knows Cena is so happy right now. Rock mocks Cena and his young fans now. Rock says there’s another reason why he’s doing this, besides kicking Miz and Truth’s ass. Rock wants Cena to witness, at Survivor Series, the most electrifying man in the world doing what he does best – putting boots to asses. Rock says what he does that night is just a taste of what he will do to Cena at WrestleMania. Rock goes and pretty sure he calls Cena’s mom a fat ass, but says he’s back and Cena better get ready. They will team at Survivor Series – never before, never again. If ya smellllll… and the crowd pops as Rock’s music plays again and Cole runs down what we just heard.
