"Is @therock really having a birthday party on Raw? Maybe they’ll show a clip of th pardookie I threw him in ’99. Think Yurple will show up?"

"I just received 57 messages in the last 2 min -The people WANT the Mick @therock ‘s party, they NEED the Mick @therock ‘s party!"

"And 62 new ones in the last two minutes as well. Guess it couldn’t hurt to ask for a one day furlough from TNA to help @therock celebrate."
