After Summerslam the Rock apparently turned into a heel.
It was his last match for this year- he is expected to return in the first quarter of next year because he is currently filming Heldarado

Taken from http://www.prowrestling.com:
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will be starring in a film adaptation of Midway’s arcade classic/PlayStation 2 title Spy Hunter. Neither a writer nor a director has been assigned to the project yet, but the budget is expected to be over $100 million. The Rock will play a former F-15 pilot named Alec Sects who has been employed by the International Espionage Services to take down the evil, wannabe-world-dominators known as Nostra. The movie is expected to be released around Christmas of 2003.

I don't know why. Did you hear J.R giving the Rock's new movie a plug on raw? ;D

Rock Signed For New MGM Remake Movie, more
Source: CNN.com
-- Below is an article found on CNN.com about The Rock’s latest movie venture:
NEW YORK (Variety) -- Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is ready to swing the two-by-four in the MGM remake of "Walking Tall," a film that will likely go into production in early summer.
The 1973 film's premise of a Southern sheriff's mission to remove corruption from his county has been brought up to date. In the new version, The Rock's character returns home from serving his country and finds his small town infected by drugs, violence and general menace. Like the original character of Buford Pusser, who was played by Joe Don Baker, the protagonist still settles disputes with the very persuasive assist of a well-swung two-by-four.
The Rock has sparked to David Klass's script and his participation is subject to the studio signing him quickly. A deal is expected to be made quickly and a director hired right away.
MGM's courtship of the Rock will have to be quick if the studio wants to tie up his next slot. The Rock followed "The Scorpion King" with the Peter Berg-directed "Helldorado" for Universal, and studios all over town are developing vehicles for him, including Universal's "Spy Hunter," "Johnny Bravo" at Warner Bros., "Walk Like a Dragon" at Paramount, and "Skip Tracer" and "King Kamehameha" at Sony.
