Road Dogg never allowed Rock to get too cocky with him

I've literally never heard anything about Rock being big headed during his ascension. In fact, I've heard nothing but the opposite. Guy was putting over Shane Helms & Booker T during the show and taking out the ring & production crews to dinner afterwards. Jones talking about it wasnt a rivalry between HHH & Rock.


He got that right, at least. :mjlol:


Dude claiming he went out of his way to be disrespectful to Rock says more about the lack of character on his part than it does anything. Jones sounds incredibly jealous here and if you're a man with halfway any dignity or security in yourself, nothing about this was admirable.

Pop shyt and apologize. :francis:

"I was always jealous of him because I thought I was a good talker, he was [too] a good talker," Road Dogg told Rosenberg of his feelings about The Rock when they first encountered each other in WWE in the 1990s. "But one thing I didn’t have was a good body compared to him."

Road Dogg continued, "So because of that, I treated him harshly when we were both up and coming. We all had our fun with him when he was Rocky Maivia, with the pineapple head and those sorts of things, but what he had become was undeniable, with a great body, great talker, great entertainer."

After retiring from his in-ring career with the company, Road Dogg made a successful transition into his role as an agent / producer behind-the-scenes for WWE.

As The Rock would come-and-go while his acting and business careers took off, the two would interact later in life where Road Dogg, who was finally clean and sober, apologized to Johnson for the way he treated him years ago.

"Once I got clean and sober, he was literally one of the first people I went back to and make amends," said Road Dogg. "The Rock was very humble about the situation. He said, ‘Dude, it’s all good!’, which made it feel much better to cope with."
