Because the Rock Returns to WWE to Host Wrestlemania 27:
Renee Ramsarran — Feb 15, 2011 — Lifestyle
After a 7-year hiatus, The Rock returns to WWE -- much to the delight of his fans. Dwayne Johnson announced he will come back to professional wrestling as the host of Wrestlemania 27 in April. For a generation that couldn't stop screaming "If ya' smell what The Rock is cookin'!," this comeback has been much anticipated. As The Rock returns to the ring, you decide which of these wicked wrestling innovations deserves the title belt or the people's elbow.
