World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins couldn’t help but chuckle at The Rock’s recent call-out ahead of tonight’s SmackDown in Glendale, Arizona.
Tonight’s episode marks the blue brand’s return following last Saturday night’s Elimination Chamber 2024 in Perth, Australia, where Drew McIntyre emerged victorious, earning himself a shot at The Visionary’s World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia.
Before the SmackDown showdown, The Rock took to social media, unleashing a video targeting Cody Rhodes, while also taking a playful jab at Rollins, advising him to mind his own business.

“The Rock is your boss, which means Seth Rollins, if you keep running your mouth and sticking your nose in The Bloodline’s business, then that World title that you have around your waist, very soon The Rock will make that title go to somebody else. Read between the lines. Yes, The Rock just blurred it,” he quipped.
Rollins, ever the showman, responded in kind on social media, sharing a GIF from his recent appearance on The Grayson Waller Effect at Elimination Chamber 2024, where he was seen laughing heartily.
In a separate development, former WWE writer Vince Russo didn’t hold back his thoughts on Rollins’ flamboyant attire.
On a recent episode of Legion of RAW show, Russo criticized Rollins for his wardrobe choices, likening them to a clown’s attire.
He lamented the lack of explanation behind Rollins’ fashion sense and suggested that the champion’s appeal was limited to a specific segment of the WWE fanbase.
As anticipation builds for tonight’s SmackDown, all eyes are on The Rock’s expected appearance. With Cody Rhodes stirring the pot by challenging The Great One to a singles match, the stage is set for a night of electrifying action on the blue brand.
