Controversial UFC personality, Nate Diaz, has always found himself in the news. Be it for his statements or recently because of his anti-Dwayne Johnson behavior. Recently, Dwayne Johnson has found himself to be the target of Diaz quite frequently.
In 2019, Diaz dissed Dwayne Johnson for handing out the BMF title to Jorge Masvidal. And recently, he criticized DJ again for his controversial shoe deal with UFC and Under Armour.

However, just a few hours ago, Diaz took to Instagram to upload a very cryptic post. He uploaded a picture of himself standing alongside Triple H and Stephanie McMahon with the caption, “We’ll see what’s bout to happen next.” The post might just be a simple tease or a glimpse into Diaz’s future in WWE.
Fans went crazy on social media after witnessing the post. It soon got flooded with comments, and most of them were related to Dwayne Johnson.
Fans wrote, “209 slap vs the people champ 🔥 book it !”, “The rock: you taking everything I worked for mf”.

The majority of the comments were about Nate Diaz going against The Rock. “It’s time to put them words to the rock for real “.
While a match between The Rock and Nate Diaz seems unlikely, it certainly would get personal if it ever happens.
What caused the controversy between Dwayne Johnson and UFC fighters?
Recently, several UFC Fighters are agitated at The Rock, for one of his business deals. Earlier, he confirmed a business deal with UFC, Under Armour, and Project Rock. This deal saw Under Armour become the official footwear partner of UFC.
This deal caused a stir in the locker room, with many fighters going against The Rock as they weren’t getting anything to wear the shoes.

UFC Fighter Terrance McKinney went to Twitter, and tagged The Rock for letting his opinions known. Nate Diaz was controversially vocal enough and took out his frustrations on live television.
Thus, it became a huge issue in the UFC.
Hey brotha @TheRock if you’re a fan of what we do make the deal favorable for the ones modeling your shoe I get it’s not your fault or your business doin it to us but show us the love you think you are. Get in our corner and support us 🙏🏾
