Dwayne Johnson is an action star in Hollywood, but he has been a part of many comedy movies too. Making people laugh is one of the favorite things of The Rock, whether it is through movies, social media, or sometimes on Saturday Night Live.
Similarly, once Johnson did a skit on SNL alongside comedian Pete Davidson. The skit was a hilarious one that the former WWE star reacted to.

A few years ago, in 2015, Dwayne Johnson shared a YouTube video on his Twitter. It was the SNL with stars like The Rock, Pete Davidson, and Kate McKinnon. They named the skit ‘The Jungle’ which had a funny ending. DJ shared his reaction on Twitter about the same.
‘The Great One’ wrote, “Short Long, cartwheel up to me..” Holy sh*t was this skit fun w/ @petedavidson & Kate McKinnon. #DrBones #SNL Enjoy..”

The skit was based on an Indiana Jones-type movie where The Rock played Dr. Bones, Davidson played Short-Long and McKinnon played Miss Reese. The trio is in search of a treasure and when they are almost there, they get attacked by a tribe who guard the place.
The tribe attacked with poison darts. Dr. Bones gets shot with poisoned darts in the chest, butt, and groin, Short-Long and Miss Reese vie to be the one that gets to suck the poison out. However, Bones try to maintain distance from Reese, and Long sucks out the poison from every place of the character played by DJ.

In the end, when the darts hit the groin area of Bones and Long, instead of taking Reese’s help, they do a cartwheel and help each other. DJ carries Davidson in that cartwheel position. Clearly, this was a funny moment and made The Rock say “holy sh*t” for this scene.

Clearly, it seems the 10-time world champion hasn’t missed an opportunity presented to appear on SNL. As of today he might not be able to make it as DJ has a super busy schedule of filming and his business ventures.
