WWE fans hi-jack The Rock’s promo on the RAW after WrestleMania telling the Final Boss to ‘shut the f*** up’ and ‘this is awkward’ as he issues challenge to Cody Rhodes… but the Hollywood star is set for ANOTHER break from wrestling

The Rock made his presence felt during RAW after WrestleMania as he interrupted new Undisputed WWE champion, Cody Rhodes, at the top of the show.

 The first hour of RAW was commercial free and a combination of Triple H, Rhodes and The Rock ate up around 50 minutes of that.

After The Game opened the show to thank the fans for making the greatest WrestleMania of all-time (by any metric he kept reminding us), WWE’s leader brought Rhodes to the ring.

 After relishing in finishing his story with Roman Reigns, the former champion’s cousin, The Rock, entered the fray to let Rhodes know his story with him has just begun.

The Final Boss was barely able to talk for the first 10 minutes of his confrontation with Rhodes. The Philadelphia crowd told Rock to ‘shut the f*** up’ and called him an ‘a**h***’ every time he tried to speak.

After weeks of beat downs, The Rock told Cody Rhodes he will return to WWE for him again

 When the 51-year-old attempted to trade titles with Rhodes, the Well Fargo Center chanted ‘this is awkward’ and booed every time Rock moved the microphone to his mouth.

When they did manage to get down to business, Rock confirmed he will be taking time off from WWE to go shoot a new movie, believed to be ‘The Smashing Machine’.

But, he will be coming back. And when he does, he will be coming for Cody Rhodes whether he has the title or not.

The crowd were on The Rock's back for the whole segment, but he handled it well

“The Rock has gotta go away for a little while now. The Rock doesn’t want to leave either. When the Rock comes back, whether you’re champion or not champion – The Rock is going to come back for you”

To close the segment, The Rock handed the American Nightmare an item from his pocket.

The Rock said: ‘You don’t even have to open your hand to know what this is. Don’t you ever break my heart again. If you smell what the Final Boss is cooking.’

 It’s worth noting The Rock was getting positive ‘Rocky’ chants when he first came out. The crowd for the RAW after WrestleMania are famously rowdy.

The crowd were almost certainly having fun with The Rock, and he seemed to relish it.
