Published 03/02/2024, 3:18 PM EST

Dwayne Johnson is on a roll and he is taking millions and millions of his fans on a ride. His heel turn has only made the road to WrestleMania more exciting than ever, something he promised when he returned to WWE and the wrestling industry. As the story develops, more and more players are entering the game, including fans. The Rock has not hesitated to call out fans and one such fan has reacted aggressively to The Rock’s involvement.

Dave LaGreca calls out The Rock in a heated response

Dave LaGreca of Busted Open uploaded a video where he blasted Dwayne Johnson for his recent promo on SmackDown yesterday and a 20-minute-long video he uploaded onto his Instagram.

In the latter part of the video, the host called out Dwayne Johnson for an interview as he said, “So come on our show, be a part of Busted Open. I would love it. Call me out in front of my face. Say what you said in the video in front of my face. Do you have the b***s? Then do it. F****ng tired of this s***. F***ng trashing on fans now? Is that what you’ve lowered yourself to? Trashing on fans? I’d love the opportunity to talk to you.”

LaGreca’s heated response was because of a clip The Rock had uploaded yesterday where he called out Dave LaGreca a ‘goof’ and a Cody crybaby, a derogatory term he invented for Cody Rhodes’ fans.

In his original video, The Rock expressed his displeasure over Dave LaGreca calling him out for hijacking Cody Rhodes’ WrestleMania XL main event moment. He said, “The Rock doesn’t know who that guy is, but he knows what he is. And that’s a goof, an idiot. Another pro-wrestling, Cody crybaby jack-off idiot that thinks he knows everything.”

What Is Heel Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s Connection With Versace Shirts?

Well, The Rock is known for his trash-talk ability and he did not mince his words while sending a clear message to Dave LaGreca. So, what will happen from here?

The heated exchange between the two grown men mentioned above could be WWE’s promotional program to build up WrestleMania XL. In his latest Instagram post, The Rock mentioned how blurred the line will be between reality and wrestling. So, could this be an indicator of The Rock’s initiative towards building up the mega event? Probably, yes, especially after his recent segment on SmackDown this week. The Rock offered Cody Rhodes a tag-team match opportunity at Night 1 of WrestleMania. All of this could be to build up WrestleMania.
