Dwayne Johnson is already a renowned celebrity due to his glamorous wrestling and acting career. However, he recently made headlines due to his heated beef in the WWE universe. His appearance at the WrestleMania XL kickoff event took a drastic turn when he got engaged in an intense brawl with Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
As his beef with Rollins garners the spotlight, the latter’s wife, Becky Lynch took a subtle dig at the former during an appearance on the February 12 episode of WWE Raw.
Becky Lynch Addressed Her Beau, Seth Rollins’ Beef With Dwayne Johnson in a Subtle Way!
Becky Lynch during an episode of WWE Raw addressed Dwayne Johnson‘s career sneakily. Given that her husband, Seth Rollins is keen on fighting the latter, she brings a sort of comic relief in an intense situation by sharing how Roux Lopez, whom she shares with Rollins, seems to be puzzled as to why her dad wants to face off Maui.
In a post shared by X account, WrestleOps, Lynch was quoted,
“I’ve had to explain to her [daughter] why daddy wants to fight Maui.”
Here, she referenced how her daughter thinks that her father is going to fight The Rock’s character, Maui from Moana. However, she is not the only one to drag Johnson’s Moana into the WWE universe. Even her husband previously did the same in a witty way.

For the wild brawl that happened at the WrestleMania XL press conference, Rhodes expressed his gratitude to Rollins for supporting him. As the reigning world heavyweight champion publicly extends his support to Stardust, he referenced the Moana movie by quoting (via Times Now),
“What can I say except you’re welcome?”
This line is from the movie’s popular song, You’re Welcome, which was sung by Johnson. After his intense brawl, he took another dig at the actor in a different interview. While talking in a Sports Illustrated interview, he emphasized that WrestleMania is his show, implying Johnson to return to Hollywood to do his thing.
“He can show up and do his thing, I just want him to know this is my place now, I’m the World Heavyweight Champion, it’s my time, my WrestleMania, my show. So please, come do your thing, raise your eyebrow, say your little words, and run on back and do your things, make your movies, make your money. Just know whose house it is.”
Whereas, the WWE stars ended up engaging in a heated brawl when the Jumanji actor slapped Stardust for insulting his family with Rollins getting involved in the matter. What started as a brawl would seemingly be resolved in the ring since Triple H confirmed a rematch between Roman Reigns and Rhodes for WrestleMania XL.
Meanwhile, Rhodes asserted that he didn’t say anything bad about The Rock’s family. He only remarked that if Reigns’ grandfather and Peter Maivia, Rock’s grandfather, saw him, they would “be ashamed.”
It was seemingly due to how he treated the Bloodline members over the past two years however that enraged the Great One who went violent before asserting,
“When you talk about his family, you’re talking about my family. When you’re talking about his ancestors, you’re talking about my ancestors…So now, we have a problem.”
The Hollywood star has joined hands with his cousin whereas Rollins is in team Rhodes! It will be intriguing to witness the ring which will be more than just a match for the four of them.
