Dwayne Johnson. Dwayne JohnsonDwayne “The Rock” Johnson took a shot at himself during his highly anticipated return to the WWE. “If The Rock had to guess why you’re so angry, it’s probably because nobody likes you and you’re not funny” Johnson, 51, said to Jinder Mahal during WWE Raw on Monday, January 1. “As a matter of fact, if you were one of The Rock’s movies, you would probably be Baywatch.” Mahal, 37, quipped he “thankfully” never watched the movie since it premiered in 2017.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson took a shot at himself during his highly anticipated return to the WWE.
“If The Rock had to guess why you’re so angry, it’s probably because nobody likes you and you’re not funny” Johnson, 51, said to Jinder Mahal during WWE Raw on Monday, January 1. “As a matter of fact, if you were one of The Rock’s movies, you would probably be Baywatch.”
Mahal, 37, quipped he “thankfully” never watched the movie since it premiered in 2017. But his declaration didn’t faze Johnson.
“Well nobody else did, either,” the actor retorted. “Shut your mouth when The Rock is talking to you!”
As the crowd cheered for Johnson’s comeback, he mellowed out and seemingly broke his wrestler persona.
“Wait, I’m sorry. You actually didn’t see Baywatch?” he asked Mahal lightly before giving him a chance to respond. “It doesn’t matter if you didn’t see Baywatch!”
Johnson’s return to the WWE comes nearly two decades after he left the ring to pursue a film career. Since his WWE exit, Johnson has made a name for himself as an actor and snagged roles in countless star-studded films, including Baywatch.
Johnson starred in the film adaptation of the iconic series alongside Zac Efron, Priyanka Chopra-Jonas and Alexandra Daddario. The movie was a flop at the box office and wasn’t a hit with critics earning a whopping 17 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. The former wrestler took to social media to make light of the bad reviews at the time.
