It has also put everyone involved, from Rock to Reigns to Rhodes to Rollins, under a lot of scrutiny. Rock has even been criticized for how he was used to build up Mania. People were most critical of him after his first return, when he briefly took Rhodes’ spot in a match against Reigns at WrestleMania before things were changed.
The things that people are saying about Rock are not being heard by Jim Ross. As seen on the most recent episode of “Grilling JR,” the AEW announcer, who called some of Rock’s most famous fights in WWE, asked why anyone would be against Rock’s return to WWE, saying that just having Rock around would be great for business.
“It’s hard to read comments from those that criticize Rock’s return and how he returned, ect, ect, adnaseum,” said Ross. “But give it some thought. In this case, you’re the booker, or a booker, running the show, and you have the chance to hire “The Great One.” You don’t even think about it. You don’t have to think too hard about that choice. I’m glad he’s back. I don’t mind that he’s having fun and guiding his own ship.
