Below are some top WWE news stories of the day, involving The Rock, Vince McMahon and Seth Rollins.
• A report came out recently that The Rock is allowed to say cuss words in his promos (along with a few other top talent), but other WWE wrestlers aren’t.
Dave Meltzer reported the following after this:
“One person noted that there was a feeling that the era of Vince McMahon’s double standards for his handpicked stars and for everyone else was over, and then The Rock shows up and it’s exactly the same.”
The Rock saw what Meltzer reported and tweeted the following:
“This story is complete horsesh*t.”
NXT wrestler DIJAK then replied:
“Lmao COOK THEM.”
