Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Breaks Character to Address ‘Crackheads’ Smackdown Jibe on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Dwayne Johnson has returned to WWE and he is badder than ever. Fans are witnessing Johnson turn heel after almost two decades and it is a sight to behold as he is cutting promos as an elite heel. One of the hallmarks of Heel Rock is that even fans are not safe from him. On the March 1st episode of SmackDown, Johnson returned to the show and confronted the fans.

While the show became famous for numerous blackouts throughout, another reason why it became famous was for Johnson’s promo. Recently the newest member of Bloodline opened up about his experience from the show.

Dwayne Johnson called the people of Pheonix crackheads

On the latest episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live the Brahma Bull was present where he addressed everything ranging from John Cena presenting the award for best costume at the Academy, to his WWE return. However, one thing from his return that is worth talking about is the promo from the March 1st episode where he called the people of Phenoix crackheads. He shared some more insights and behind-the-scenes facts about the promo. He started by saying, “Phoenix, Arizona by the way before you show up, I did a little research and what I am saying is the truth.”

After that, the audience along with Kimmel and Johnson saw the clip of his infamous promo. After the clip ended, Johnson then talked about how he felt during that moment.

“It is the best to go back to WWE in this Rock 10.0 version where I become a heel and say the things that people want to say.” He then added that despite calling the audience present “cactus loving crack heads” and “crack heads Karens”  he was cheered by the fans.

Hollywood Rock strikes back

On last week’s episode of SmackDown, Johnson had some words for Cody Rhodes. Both Rhodes and Rollins were present last week on SmackDown to accept Johnson’s challenge for a tag-team match at WrestleMania 40. However, he wanted to taunt The American Nightmare a bit. Johnson decided to make things personal by making indirect comments about Dusty Rhodes.

The American Nightmare did not take this one lightly. He retaliated on the spot and slapped Johnson, something that fans wanted him to do since WrestleMania XL Press Conference. But, getting back to the topic, what do you have to say about Johnson’s statement? Let us know in the comments below.
