Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson got the crowd rolling during his concert segment on the latest episode of SmackDown. However, according to the reports, some of the WWE talents and networks expressed their dislike for his profane promos. Now, The Rock himself reacted to the reports in his unique style on social media.
He took to Instagram and shared the full video of his concert. He stated that this is who he is, and he’d rather show his real personality than fake it. He further added that everything he has done in WWE since his return has been from his heart.
The Rock has not held back from dropping F-bombs on both Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins as part of their build-up to WrestleMania 40. Not only that, but The Rock has also been relentless during his in-ring promos on SmackDown. For instance, this past Friday, the Hollywood actor dissed Rhodes, saying his parents regretted being on drugs and using cheap condoms.
You sound like somebody the Rock can love - "drunk and horny” Networks and “standards & practices” have issues with my language, but I’d rather be real than not. I talk from the heart, shoot from the hip and try to always have fun. Enjoy the Rock concertThe Rock wrote on Instagram
The 51-year-old veteran will return to action at WrestleMania, as he and Roman Reigns will battle Rhodes and Seth Rollins in a tag team match. It will be his first match in eight years since he wrestled Erick Rowan at WrestleMania 32. It will be interesting to see whether The Rock wins the tag match or not. If they win, then the title match between Rhodes and Reigns will be a Bloodline Rules match, where anything goes.
Ric Flair showers praise on The Rock on social media
The Rock has been killing it since his return to his iconic heel persona in WWE. Not only fans but also some WWE legends like Ric Flair couldn’t stop talking and praising him. ‘The Nature Boy’ made a special post on social media to congratulate The Rock.
Flair took to X and had nothing but praise for Rocky, as he called him the most entertaining superstar in WWE history. He even put the Great One above himself, which was the ultimate symbol of respect and friendship. The 16-time world champion has liked his work since his return to WWE.
My Friend The Rock, You are the most entertaining motherf*cker in the entire history of the wrestling business and I've seen them all, including myself, but I pale in comparison! I'm so thankful for our friendship & respect. God bless you! you are the f*cking man! WOOOOO!Ric Flair on X
The duo has always shown love and respect for each other on social media. Recently, The Rock made a very emotional post and called The Nature Boy his hero. He, along with Seven Bucks Production, is looking to make a movie project dedicated to Ric Flair. The fans also liked the special bond between two of the greatest performers of all time.
