When it comes to the Mount Rushmore of wrestling, WWE Superstar The Rock is one of the first names that instantly come to mind. During the Attitude Era, The Rock established himself as a top performer. With unmatched in-ring abilities and as an elite promo artist, he was destined to reach the pinnacle.

So when the biggest name in sports entertainment made his return to WWE with a new "Hollywood" gimmick, the fans started to boo him. During that period, The Hurricane kicked off a mini-feud with The Great One. The two had several brilliant comical angles with some of the funniest backstage segments that made the whole thing a crowd-pleaser.

Things soon got relatively serious when the self-proclaimed superhero called The People’s Champ "a sellout."

In response to this, The Rock wanted to go one-on-one with The Hurricane in a no DQ contest which was the main event of WWE RAW. The match had several near falls and was a very close contest. However, The Rock soon stopped underplaying his opponent and prepared to land a People's Elbow on him.

As the people expected, The Rock looked closer to win. Just then, Stone Cold's music hit, which distracted The Brahma Bull. The Hurricane wasted no time for a roll-up that left the fans stunned. Yes, The Hurricane defeated The Great One that night in a completely unbelievable way!
