WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins escalated his feud with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson on Monday Night RAW, calling the squared circle legend ‘Dwayne Diarrhea’ before revealing he is medically cleared to return to the ring .
Rollins has not competed since suffering a knee injury during a January 15 match against Jinder Mahal. However, Rollins has remained in the main event scene without wrestling due in large part to his feud with The Rock.
Rock and Rollins has been embroiled in drama since a February 8 press conference that also heavily involves Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes.
The following comment about ‘Dwayne Diarrhea’ came during Rollins’ first televised appearance with the company since Johnson posted a 21-minute video on Instagram on Friday. The social media promo contained several insults thrown at Rollins.
After Rollins gave The Rock a new nickname, the Monday Night RAW crowd responded with chants of ‘Diarrhea!’ Diarrhea!’
The Rock is one of the most popular wrestlers of all time and has returned to WWE in recent weeks.
Rollins also revealed that he is medically cleared to compete after more than a month on the shelf.
With Rollins cleared, he can get physical in fights outside of matches, and a confrontation between Rollins and The Rock is expected on Friday’s episode of ‘Smackdown.’
WWE is trending toward a tag team match with Reigns and The Rock as partners against Rhodes and Rollins during the first night of its biggest annual show, WrestleMania, next month.
On the second and final night of WrestleMania, Rollins is scheduled to defend his title against Drew McIntyre, while Rhodes and Reigns will battle for the latter’s WWE Universal Championship.
Johnson is one of the most popular professional wrestlers of all time and translated his success with WWE into a long career as an actor, where he is one of the most in-demand actors in Hollywood.
The Rock began focusing on acting full-time and left WWE on the back burner in 2004, after starting with the company in 1996.
Johnson and Rollins have been in dispute for almost a month after an event in Las Vegas
He began making sporadic in-ring appearances for WWE again in 2012, where he began a feud with fellow wrestler and Hollywood actor John Cena, which culminated in two WrestleMania main events in consecutive years.
Johnson has returned to WWE television more consistently over the past few weeks and is currently playing a villainous role for the first time in two decades.
Johnson’s last recognized match in WWE is a six-second victory over Erick Rowan in 2016. Before that, it was the last of his WrestleMania main events with Cena in 2013.
Johnson returned to active storylines in January with the lure of a match against Reigns, a member of the Anoa’i family, as the plan.
The WWE fan base had a negative reaction to The Rock supplanting other full-time wrestlers in the company’s main event scene, such as Rhodes, forcing a change in creative plans and Johnson playing a heel or a villain.
