* yeah... browsing on youtube, The Rock does it best as a heel... i can't help laughing when he disses even the WWE fans... like, "hey! The Rock eats pie more than you do in a lifetime!"... something like that... 😂
* in my opinion, the lowest showings of The Rock is his feud with Chris Jericho... the feud was so personal, The Rock is not even acting his character/attitude as The Great One... the "skirmishes-had-to-be-separated-by-officials-and-referees-thingy-shtick " is crap and it is out of The Rock's character...
* The Rock's character is like, hey! you can kick The Rock's butt, but he'll diss you like hell... but in the Rock-Y2J feud, it was the other way around... it was Y2J dissing Rock and even kicking The Rock several occasions... i personally hate that feud storyline... now try it one more time when The Rock came back from the movies, hell yeah! Y2J together with Christian were both dissed by The Rock... and we're back in the business! that's The Rock... the no.1 mic-wrecka... 😉
* the promos and interviews of The Rock was ALWAYS spectacularly funny, at most, his collaboration with The Coach... like when The Coach was asked to sing Barry Manilow, asked to say his prayers and forced to admit he loves sticking mics up cow's rectum... 😂

was kane vs khali good
It was just a match to get Kane out for his injuries, as he was taking time off after WM23 anyway. Kind of cool to see him flip Khali, and it was a clean flip too. There have been times where guys have hoisted Big Show, and he's clearly bending his knees.
I thought it was funny on The Rock's most recent heel turn, he just had a Wile E. Coyote feel to him, but I don't know how best to explain it.
I thought The Rock's best and yet worst ability was the way he dissed people, because he did so in a really funny way, but a way that could change the people's view of a wrestler for good.
Jericho was never the same after he won the title and The Rock said; "You may have won the big one once...ONCE...but The Rock has been winning big ones for years. The Rock was winning big ones when you were down in WCW getting your monkey ass whooped by Juventud Guerrera.".
He just ruined his character. Like when The Rock first faced off against Booker T and he said "Who...are you?". Booker T came in with such fanfare and acclaim, having been the equal to The Rock in WCW, only to become The Rock V2. That's why Sting has never joined WWE, and credit to him for resisting, because he doesn't believe Vince uses ex-rival company talent to full degree based on their past.

That is true but he also would give the rub to lesser guys such as during the mini Hurricane-Rock fued. Rock killed him with the Hamburgular joke but during the match, he made Hurricane look like something more than a jobber. He had the Flair mentality of putting lesser guys over in the ring instead of just squashing them which he easily could've done if he wanted to.

* and not to mention, The Rock can make the most idiotic signature moves of other wrestlers, look devastating or even more impressive... take a look at how he receive a Stone Cold Stunner, man oh man, and an Undertaker Chokeslam... or even a Kurt Angle Olympic Slam... or how he almost broke his own neck upon receiving Rhino's Gore... 😎
