smark raw 12/24/01
By Scott Keith on August 24, 2019
Scott, I stumbled upon your now 18 year old review of “Raw is War”
It was X Mas themed show, and was held in Miami Florida , also last live raw of 2001.
You speak on LOTR, then start the review.
You detail The Rock opening up the show, and he is wearing “the local sport team jersey” football jersey. Hinting that he’s going for easy “over” gimmicks.
Sucking up to the crowd since it was a Miami U football jersey.
I wanted to know if you started watching that year as well as reviewing WWF?
I ask because non fans of wrestling know that
The rock went to college in the same city the show was held, and the jersey he is wearing is the same jersey that his college football team wore when he played D1 football at the U of M (commonly referred to as simply “THE U” )
I thought you were trolling, a noob, Or a oblivious mark who lets hate impact common sense?
Even Rocks kayfabe story has him hailing from Florida, Miami.
So in the real world and worked wrestling world, he is familiar with the city he is “sucking up” to. In fact going to school since elementary in Miami and immediate surrounding Suburbs.
Why else did he come out first that night anyways?
I don’t know hometown hero? Favorite ?
Just thought it would be good advice if you still into this stuff reviewing on internet for others to see.
Also, your newly fandom of this world showed because the rock at this time never wore jersey period, and never did in his career matter of fact.
So you also make it seem as though this is a regular gimmick or a rare one done by the rock or others in the local city they come to.
That’s wrong, think about it, you know I’m right because you know 18 years later where the rock was from but failed to edit this review. No problem it happens, it should have been a red flag though when the jersey was on him that something was up.
This isn’t face behavior or rock behavior, John cena does it and that’s it.
Rock wasn’t the character to suck up, he simply says “finally.. the rock.. has come back… to… _____ enter current city raw is in”
While heel rock would diss the city.
So jersey review sucked, stopped reading after that went to Dave meltzer
Have fun !
You lost me pretty early on there, not gonna lie.
