People love watching Dwayne Johnson, be it in a movie or a wrestling show. His charisma is so alluring that everyone finds him very entertaining. Another attribute that oozes out of him is his talent to deliver a comic punch line. When he makes appearances in WWE, he sure does tickle many bones with his comedic talent.

A similar scenario happened when he made his return at Raw in 2016 and shared a backstage segment with CJ Perry (fka Lana). It was a hilarious NSFW promo that even made the top star in AEW break her character, as she admitted recently during an interview.

Perry recently appeared as the special guest on Chris Van Vliet‘s show. During the interview, Vliet asked her how she kept a straight face when Johnson made NSFW jokes about her husband. She replied by saying that she couldn’t keep a straight face and that if one looked carefully, one could find her breaking her character on TV.

She said, “I think I didn’t keep a straight face. I think if you really look hard at that YouTube of us with The Rock, like at one point, you could see me crack. Because I was just like this is so funny and he’s so funny. That was such a fun time.”

She commended Johnson’s sense of humor and conveyed that she had a blast working with him. Now let’s have a look at what was it that Johnson said exactly that made Perry break her character in front of the camera.

The time when Johnson made inappropriate comments about Lana and Rusev

On the January 25, 2016 edition of Monday Night Raw, Johnson returned to WWE. He met a few stars backstage and mocked them before bumping into Lana. As soon as he saw her, he approached her and started conversing with her about their last encounter.

Publically exposing intricate details about the night, he made several inappropriate comments. He said that Lana surprised him one night when she came to visit him in his hotel room. Then she told him she didn’t want to be with her fiance Rusev (aka Miro) anymore because of his physical appearance and poor hygiene.

After that, he and Lana got drunk and did some special exercises. At first, Lana smiled but soon her smile faded as she saw her fiancee Rusev standing behind ‘The Rock’. After Johnson found out that the couple was engaged to be married, he gave Lana a kiss on her cheek and left after making an inappropriate joke about the female star.
