The WWE universe was left in shock as The Rock’s unexpected heel streak took center stage on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW. Despite not being scheduled in the main event, he made an explosive entrance at the beginning by interrupting Cody Rhodes’ promo.
The fight did not end there; even after the camera stopped rolling, the Final Boss continued to act aggressively against Rhodes by going beyond what was written in the script. It seems that WWE’s crappy scripts “fucking pissed” him off from smashing Cody Rhodes.
The Rock furious with WWE’s guidelines
A recent incident on WWE Raw in which The Rock assaulted Cody Rhodes drew a lot of attention. He then stoked the flames of controversy by sharing a video clip that showed his ongoing assault on Rhodes after the program had been taken off the air. In the video, The Rock was also seen yelling at the WWE director because they told him to stop.
Today, he shared a lengthy Instagram post where he made it clear that he acted out of strong feelings and didn’t like being under command. Using strong language in the social media statement, he harshly criticized those who try to control others’ behavior, suggesting it as a larger issue. He also declared his intention to speak and act freely, regardless of external pressures.
In the post, the Great One penned, “I hate constraints and bulls**t rules – and just because some @wwe producer says, “clear” (meaning, we are no longer live on the air and the show is over) that doesn’t mean I just stop whatever I’m doing and tell everyone great job. It f**king pissed me off. I can’t shut my emotions off just because a script says we’re done.”
Rhodes and Roman Reigns’ highly anticipated rematch at WrestleMania has taken a back seat because of The Rock and Rhodes’ escalating hostility. However, the unfortunate reality is that the 38-year-old can’t deal with The Rock’s constant threats and warnings because of his “babyface” personality.
The Rock sends stern warning to Cody Rhodes
Things are heating up for The Rock and Cody Rhodes’s future match at WrestleMania, especially after their intense backstage brawl on Monday Night Raw. Their feud started at WrestleMania 40 Kickoff and got worse on the most recent episode of Raw when The Rock said some scary things to Rhodes in his ear. The American Nightmare was left bleeding after being savagely attacked by The Rock later on.
Brahma Bull is still set on doing more damage at WrestleMania 40, even though the Rhodes family has warned him. Recently, he shared a stern warning to Cody Rhodes by tweeting, “It didn’t have to be this way. But now it’s the only way.” There is more drama expected in the forthcoming days since the Hollywood superstar will be on “The Tonight Show” with his cousin on April 3, right before WrestleMania XL.
