The Rock's current musclebound physique makes him look like a neon signed WWE Wellness Policy exemption. Which makes Bruno Sammartino look naïve for buying Triple H's impassioned plea that the McMahon family had completely changed their ways.

Recently I reported that many WWE wrestlers were sure to have loved John Cena's worked shoot promo on The Rock on last Monday's Raw, as they resent his fleeting presence on WWE programming. Indeed, one particularly disgruntled WWE performer allowed his Rock rage to be published for the world to see under the condition of anonymity.
