People’s Champion ‘The Rock’ to People’s Villain: Is DCEU’s Black Adam the Downfall of Dwayne Johnson’s Insane Popularity?

In pro wrestling, sometimes fans support an individual, and sometimes they turn on them. Though Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has not been in the pro wrestling business for quite some time, he has had a similar experience recently.

Dwayne Johnson has a huge fan following that admires his personality and his work. He cares about the people and always motivates them. But a recent post from the Brahma Bull got some criticism on him as people questioned his ego.

In an effort to promote his upcoming film, Black Adam, The Rock called the DC Extended Universe “The Black Adam DC Universe”. Ever since this post became viral, fans have been fuming at Johnson. Some individuals even claimed they will not watch this movie after learning about this post from the former WWE Champion.

Not only that, fans have heavily criticized the actor for his claims and raised question marks about his ego. Criticisms and boos are nothing new for Johnson. He had experienced all these things during the early stages of his WWE career. But this is a totally different scenario.

Is there too much focus on Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam?

Dwayne Johnson is undoubtedly very excited about his dream project, Black Adam. But after an upcoming superhero film, Batgirl, got shelved by Warner Bros recently, fans think that there is too much focus on Black Adam.
