Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson returned to Friday-Night SmackDown this week to drop a bombshell. The Bloodline asserted dominance as always and took shots at WWE Universe. The Rock offered a counter-challenge to Cody Rhodes and Seth “Freakin” Rollins in response to Cody’s challenge. However, the botched ones-up gesture from Rocky caught the WWE Universe’s attention.
After The Bloodline’s segment ended, every member stood in the ring for acknowledgment. Fans noticed Paul Heyman looking at The Rock for again botching the acknowledgment pose. The Wise Man was seen staring at The People’s Champion’s pose and looked suspicious. The Special Counsel looked at the Hollywood actor as if he was not fully acknowledging his family being the odd one out.
It is surprising since Rock botched the pose earlier during his recruitment. Repeating his botched pose has ignited a spark of suspicion in WWE Universe’s minds. It is suspicious especially after Rock publicly acknowledged Roman Reigns since he was looking to topple him from the Head of the Table spot. This was the sole purpose for returning to the WWE.
The iconic finger gesture is taking the index finger out with the thumb inside while acknowledging The Bloodline. When The Great One joined his family faction, he raised his finger and took out his thumb making it look like an L. WWE Universe immediately noticed it and criticized him for that. Surprisingly, the 51-year-old did the same pose again.
Fans reacted to the incident and shared their thoughts regarding Heyman’s stare
WWE Universe is always on the lookout for signs of betrayal. It was visible Heyman was having secondary thoughts after recruiting the member of the board to the faction. Many fans indicated he had been working for Rocky all along and would eventually turn on his Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.
Some referred to the veteran Superstar’s “L” pose as losers for the WWE Universe. While some questioned the possibility of the high tag team match involving him, Reigns, Rhodes, and Rollins since Seth is scheduled to face Drew McIntyre. Some fans accused Paul does not trust Flex Kavana. Here are some of the best reactions from the WWE Universe members:
The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment is looking to make his in-ring return at WrestleMania XL. He challenged Rhodes and Rollins to a tag team match aligning with Roman. Although he has added stipulations to the match that can either benefit Rhodes or cost him to finish his story. It will be interesting to see how the rivals-turned-allies duo responds to his challenge.
