YouTube - WWE
Of all the people in the world to mess with on social media Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is probably not the person you should choose. Because if anyone has figured out how to dominate that platform these days it’s him.
That’s not to say that you can’ beat him at his own game. We’ve actually seen it done…once. But it’s still not a smart move.
One guy on Twitter found this out the hard way over the weekend when he snarkily responded to a tweet DJ sent out congratulating his friend Kurt Angle on returning to the ring for WWE’s TLC pay-per-view.
Congrats to my good bud @RealKurtAngle and his return tonight to a @WWE ring. Special athlete and great human being. Have FUN brotha #WWETLC

Nice little shout-out from one wrestling great to another on his return to a WWE ring after an 11-year absence, right? Nothing to be mad at there.
Oh wait, this guy, Mr. Obvious, had something to say about it…

At least this guy knew he was literally asking for a verbal beatdown from one of the greatest trash-talkers of all time…

Which is exactly what happened…
😂 👏🏾 I like the dry wit
Correct, I do in fact know wrestling isn’t real. Thats why I said “have fun”. I also know, you can go fuck yourself.— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) October 22, 2017

Needless to say, reactions were 100% for The Rock…

Luckily for Mr. Pobjie, The Rock is, as we well know, actually a pretty nice guy…
