For some reason, Rock gave him a muffin. I guess it was for the blimp? Don't know. Questions: What is your real name? Duane Johnson. Good old Leno jokes that his real name is really Wayne, and that his dad just had a lisp. HAHAHA. Discusses his name Rocky Maivia and why it didn't work out. Again, Rocky Maivia was trying to be an ultra face at a time where the bad-ass was way more popular. So the Rock said he asked for some attitude, and the WWF let him do it. It's still funny to see him wrestle as Maivia, so if you didn't start watching wrestling until recently, search for something with Maivia in it for a very good laugh at today's top WWF superstar.
They discuss the People's Eyebrow, and how it's the Rock's right eyebrow only. The Rock says that he isn't bi-eyebrow, in that he can't do it with the left one that well. Jay suggested to some kind of training program for the eyebrow.
They talk about his days in Miami, where he was playing against San Diego State. This story has been so talked about, it's ridiculous! There was a riot like atmosphere during this game, where players were fighting, and the Rock decided to chase after the mascot. He was on National TV(Why doesn't anyone have footage of it?), and his mother yelled at him for this. The Rock said his mother was his biggest fan. AWWWW.
Jay praises his Saturday Night Live appearance, and jokes that the character in drag was his closest character to himself. The Rock was saying how hard it was to sit there in a dress and not show his "goods". I still wish I taped that show! The Rock after a few cracks at him said that he's very confident in his sexuality.
Rock gives Jay the details on the 4 way, and predicts that it will be electrifying! Rock then says that he's a BIG Elvis fan, and he's seen all 26 movies. Blue Hawaii is his favorite one. He says that he likes to sing Elvis songs. Since he sang "Are You Lonesome Tonight" on SNL(which he did very well in my opinion), we are treated with "Smackdown Hotel". So let me see....instead of singing what he did on Saturday Night Live, he sings the song that he has done a lot on WWF television? Oh, ok. Jay plugs book, plugs Wrestlemania. Then the Rock signs his book.

Back from the break, and Roger Eibert, great movie critic, comes out. Right off the start he gives his congrats to the Rock for his performance in Saturday Night Live. He said he was very relaxed and performed well in what was one of the best SNLs he's seen in a while. I agree. Eibert then says that the Rock should star in some movies, and the Rock says he'll be in the Mummy 2 as the Scorpion King. Roger said he'll remember this when he rips into the movie. Eibert said the should have a movie called "The Rock", but that title has already been used by another movie. That was very nice of Roger Eibert.
-Ok, so the WWF Axess will now have 4 superpower names that the WWF could use at anytime for shock value. Shawn Micheals, Undertaker, Debra, and Stone Cold are all wrestlers which the WWF could use whenever they want to, but again with high ratings, they just don't have to. All are RUMORED to be at Wrestlemania, but those rumors keep getting thrown down by the wrestlers and the WWF. I bet that at least one of them will show up at Wrestlemania in some fashion no matter what they say.
-I guess that Gorgeous George video pretty much sums her career and Macho Man's career in WCW. George just iced the cake on her never returning by having a video released by Clublove.com, as WCW will probably push her aside like they did for poor Chastity. Oh well. Don't look for them to show up in the WWF though, as it's still rumored that Macho is asking for way too much money in the WWF. Yeah, like the WWF would want to invest millions in a dinosaur!
Japanese Death Match was assigned to the 162363572376476th meeting of Super Crazy and Tajiri, as I question why? Why was it a Japanese Death Match when it's no DQ in ECW anyway. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Anyway, ok match again from these two, but I've seen them fight way too much. Oh yeah, Paul Heyman is such a good booker, he can book the same match over and over again! Yet he wonders why his ECW on TNN ratings won't raise. Duh!!! Oh yay, let's have everyone come down and get pounded by Corino, Rhino, and whoever. Yeah, it just makes me want to watch this much next week. I can just cut the excitement with a knife.
Grimes vs. Dreamer was an OK match, with some spots here and there..yay. Nothing spectacular at all here.
YAY, let's end the show with a stupid cliffhanger of the Impact Players possibly fighting Raven and Mike Awesome. Oh my God, I really want to tune in next week now!!!
@That's it for today's Phat Daily Column. I'll be back tomorrow with more of the same, so just chill till the next episode!
