Who Wants to Walk With.... The Rock?
With speculation looming that The Rock might make a special guest appearance at WrestleMania would usually get me pretty excited because honestly, who doesn't love The Rock? But in this case... I'm kind of upset seeing where this possible appearance is heading. There has been rumors swirling for the last few weeks that The Rock would show up and have a confrontation with Elias. I have BIG problem with this possible interaction at Mania.
My biggest grip is that I still believe Elias should be Braun Strowman's partner for his tag championship match against The Bar. With their chemistry and past it honestly only makes sense. But WWE appears to be heading towards a pairing with Rey Mysterio or Big Cass (gag me). But with the recent grumblings that Elias might have a sing off or some form of confrontation with The Rock does not sound all too good for The Drifter.
We all know what will happen if this really goes down. Elias will enter the ring, or sing from the ramp. He'll talk about how he is by far the best performer in WWE history when it comes to entertaining the crowd. He'll go on a roll and have some catchy lyrics that will attack past performs, most notably The Rock. As time goes by and the crowd starts to amp up, The Rock's music will hit which will lead to a sing off between the two. This is where it will end badly for Elias and he'll be crushed by the legend in the process. It'll probably start off all innocent and fun, until The Rock attacks Elias through song to which Elias would then attack The Rock. After that, I don't see anything positive happening for Elias. It's not that The Rock is going to bury him, but it's definitely not going to be good in the end for Elias.
I HATE thinking this way, as I feel it will ruin anything Elias has going for him. There is nothing positive to take from this confrontation. This is why they need to pair him with Braun for the tag championship match. It's the only pairing that makes sense.
Maybe I'm reading too far into this and possibly since the last time I read/saw anything, with The Rock's name attached to it, that storylines have changed.
I really, really hope I'm wrong on this.
Thanks for reading this morning.
