Can You Smell what the Rock is Cooking?

Disclaimer:  I think the Rock is awesome but I couldn't pass up this opportunity; it gives me a chance to write about a guilty pleasure - wrestling.  This is littered with Rock catch phrases; please let  me know if you find them all.  And if this is dedicated to you, you know who you are and your secret is safe with me  ;)

I have an embarrassing confession to make:  I am a reformed wrestling fan.  Actually, I am more of a former wrestling fan because I just got too busy to watch television somewhere along the way.  I go way back to the days of "real" wrestling with Mr. Wrestling I and II, Dusty Rhodes (and he did slap the hood of every van at Tom Stimus Chevrolet!), the Rock-n-Roll Express, Magnum T.A. (bum arm and all), the Freebirds, Ric Flair (before he was a spokesperson for rascal scooter), the Andersons, Andre the Giant, the von Erichs, and the baddest of the bad, the Road Warriors.  George Steele ate turn buckles while Leaping Lanny Paffo did back flips off of them.  Hulk Hogan was not quite leather yet.  Rowdy Roddy Piper wore his kilt because he was proud of his heritage.  You could watch wrestling on TBS every Saturday night from 6pm until 2am Sunday morning.  Whoa, those were some good times! 


I can go as old school as I like but none of those guys hold a candle to The Rock. Dwayne Johnson.  The Great One.  The People's Champion.  From the University of Miami he went to the Canadian Football League but ended up turning to wrestling like his father and grandfather.  These days he spends his time making films like Game Plan and The Tooth Fairy.

So why in the world am I writing about The Rock?  Basically because I can.  Other than that, though, I think that, as much as I dig him, Mr. Johnson is not the true people's champion.  I think that if you go one on one with the real Great One that it will change your life and change your eternity.  I do think that it matters what I think in this world because the real People's Champion is Jesus and He is interested in me.  The real Rock has come back . . . from the grave.  He defeated hell and death to save my soul for eternity.  And if you don't know my Rock then, at judgment, He is going to lay the smack down for your soul for all time. 

Now the real Rock has just one question:  do you know Me?  He is coming to a town near you at a time unannounced and you had better be ready because no one knows the day or hour.  

Heaven is the coolest thing since the other side of the pillow, Jabroni, and you'd better get ready.  Cause I don't have to smell what the Rock is cooking - it's written in the book.  And when we know the real People's Champion, we win.
