Thoughts about The Rock as WWE Champion

W
The Rock won the WWE Champion at this years Royal Rumble PPV and ended CM Punk's Impressive reign of 434 days. Few months back, The Rock announced on the 1000th Episode of Raw, that He will be challenging the WWE Champion at Royal Rumble. He defeated CM Punk and became the WWE Champion as he promised and It's been nearly 2 months since He has won. 


Ever Since The Rock returned back in January, He was on Raw every week before the Royal Rumble, He appeared on the first Raw of 2013, also the week after on Raw's 20th Anniversary show, and the final before Royal Rumble, then He also appeared the weeks before Elimination Chamber, He only missed one before Chamber I believe. But then just month to go before WrestleMania and He already missed 3 Raws (Feb 25th, March 11th, March 18th). unlike others, I'm not against the Idea of The Rock as WWE Champion because I know why He is champion, It's because He draws ratings for WWE, PPV Buyrate, etc. 





However, WrestleMania 29 main event is John Cena vs The Rock and The build up to their match has sucked. The Rock did appeared on March 4th Old School Edition of Monday Night Raw where He cut a promo with Cena and It was a pretty good promo, but that's about It. The Rock has missed last 2 Episode of Raw, Why? That's just not good because If your main event of WM29 is John Cena vs The Rock and You don't have a build up to their match just less than a month till WrestleMania is pretty bad. The Rock isn't the worst WWE Champion in the history but his reign has sucked because He has barely appeared on Raw since winning It. 




The Rock is an actor, and not a wrestler anymore - Something that we all know. He is a part time WWE wrestler, and I understand that they made The Rock WWE Champion but they should've thought twice about It. The Rock's reign has been one of the worst ever and a movie star has ended CM Punk's awesome reign. You know, they could've did Rock vs Cena II without the title, and did Undertaker vs CM Punk for the WWE Championship which would've been massive match and everyone would've been excited. 





Also, The Rock appeared on each episode of Monday Night Raw heading Into WrestleMania 28 last year and this year He has barely did that. Since Rock's return, He has appeared on Smackdown as well couple of times which is pretty awesome but He has missed 2 Raws just a month before WrestleMania which He shouldn't. The Rock has had a bad reign and I am hoping John Cena beats him for the WWE Champion at WrestleMania 29 and end his 70 days title reign.
