Dwayne Johnson has taken himself back into the ring and it’s getting increasingly violent. The question is, will his return have the same importance as the potential return of UFC star Conor McGregor? It’s an interesting comparison brought up by an interesting person.

What’s really going on with ‘The Rock’? He recently returned to the WWE and now has a full-blown conflict with Cody Rhodes. In fact, after the last edition of RAW, Johnson promised Rhodes that he’d continue to beat him down even after the broadcast. Here’s what happened.

Chael Sonnen pulls down Johnson’s comeback compared to Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor is perhaps the biggest UFC star when it comes to selling the product. The same could be said about Dwayne Johnson and the WWE but Chael Sonnen may not agree with it all. In a recent turn of events, a clip of Johnson shouting and swearing went viral.

This was a clip taken after the last RAW episode aired and Johnson was seen doing exactly what he promised he would. He was beating down Cody Rhodes who was crawling away from him with blood dripping from his head. Even Ariel Helwani was awed by the clip. ‘Uncle Chael’ clearly had thoughts about the clip as he mentioned it all in his latest video.

“Conor is still our top draw in our industry Conor is not going to beat numbers or beat records that are currently set by Conor.” What Sonnen is trying to say is that ‘The Rock’ is trying hard to come back to his former stardom but perhaps it will pale in comparison the McGregor’s return anyway.
