The Rock couldn\'t care less that there have been issues with the language he uses on WWE programming and has declared that he is shooting \"from the hip.\"
On the March 15, episode of SmackDown, the Brahma Bull brought back his Hollywood theme and performed in a special \'Rock Concert.\' The Bloodline member took aim at Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes, two men he\'ll face at WrestleMania 40: Saturday.
Criticism of The Rock
While The Rock has been entertaining since his return, his comeback is starting to rub some within the promotion the wrong way. The Rock went too long with his segment on SmackDown, leading to the Legado del Fantasma Vs. LWO tag match being cut short.
As sources exclusively told SE Scoops, talent were recently reminded about adhering to the company\'s PG guidelines on TV and social media. This has led to some resentment in WWE as many see a double standard and believe The Rock is getting special treatment. The former WWE Champion has been able to curse in his social media promos and opened his most recent promo with an \"are you f***ing kidding me?\"
The Rock Responds
On Instagram, The Rock had a fiery response to the notion that his language is crossing a line on WWE programming. The Great One argued that he\'d \"rather be real than not.\" He added, \"I talk from the heart, shoot from the hip, and try to always have fun.\" The Rock signed off with his self-prescribed new moniker as the \'Final Boss.\'
