Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Back on WWE! Crowd Cheers As He Calls CM Punk But WWE Executives Were Unhappy About It [VIDEO]
Dwayne Johnson also known as "The Rock" for many wrestling fans surprised many as he climbed the ring. The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) "Raw" show just ended when "The Rock" called CM Punk on his cellphone.
The weekly live show in preparation for WrestleMania happened in Staples Center in Los Angeles. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson climbed on to the WWE ring and surprised fans when he called CM Punk and the entire arena cheered on.
However, CM Punk was unable to answer the call but "The Rock" left a voicemail and even attempted to do a FaceTime call. CM Punk later tweeted that he got the message and explained that he was walking his dog during the call.
The Washington Post reports that CM Punk is preparing for another fight at the UFC. He recently fought and lost his first fight in September last year. WWE Executives were apparently unhappy when Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson made the call. This was likely due to CM Punk walking away from WWE in January 2014.
The reason for CM Punk's exit was because he was experiencing health troubles. The former wrestler reportedly had a cyst on his back to which he said that WWE doctor Chris Amann did not acknowledge. The cyst was later diagnosed as an MRSA infection which can be fatal. Furthermore, CM Punk adds that WWE's concussion policy did not ease his worries.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was not included in the WWE's Weekly "Raw" showdown. Rather, he was in Staples Center for the filming of his new movie "Fighting With My Family." According to Heavy, the film is about Saraya-Jade Bevis and her life as a pro-wrestler "Paige." They were set to recreate her fight between AJ Lee who is married to CM Punk in real life.
