Not only are the trolls pointing fingers at this goof-up of the filmmakers, but also a renowned WWE Hall of Famer. His harsh words must have torn down the hearts of the casting directors.
As we already know, Young Rock is a comedy series based on the life of former wrestler, The Rock. Recently, the sitcom aired its 3rd season, and like previously, it received mixed reviews. However, what was new in the reviews was the trolling and criticism it received for its inaccurate casting.

What one can understand from all of it is the lack of attention to detail from the sides of DJ and NBC while casting for the sitcom. However, we hope the audience gets affixed with the show and continues to give their honest reviews.
