The Rock is apparently still paying attention to criticism regarding his non-appearance at last Sunday’s WWE WrestleMania 41, taking aim at Busted Open Radio of all places.
After longtime host Dave LaGreca ranted on Monday about Dwayne Johnson not being involved in the John Cena vs. Cody Rhodes main event despite being a catalyst for Cena’s heel turn and then again after Johnson’s attempt to explain why he wasn’t there, the TKO board member replied to the critique shared on Busted Open Instagram post, seen below.
Johnson said, “The business is a complete work. Always has been, always will be. Every aspect of it. Every match. Every interview.” He then invited LaGreca to join himself, Cody Rhodes, John Cena, Brian Gewirtz “and the rest of us” for their creative discussions to he can “expand his perspective.”
“Until then, stop ranting, it’s not healthy my friend. Enjoy the show.”
Johnson did an interview with Pat McAfee on Monday, saying it was his call to not be involved in the Cena/Rhodes finish or the post-Elimination Chamber build as he wanted the spotlight to be on Cena and Rhodes. He also said that while he liked how things were pulled off in the end, he would have “adjusted and finessed” some things which many took as a shot toward Paul Levesque.
LaGreca called into Busted Open Radio to respond and defend his side, saying he was “hurt and disappointed with the response.”
