WWE Reportedly Upset With Rock’s Raw Segment

January 31, 2016 | Posted by Larry Csonka

According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter (via wrestlinginc.com ), WWE was not happy with the group of fans that were dressed as Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan, The Rock and Undertaker at Monday’s Raw. During the show, the man dressed as Savage was doing various Macho Man mannerisms, which is why fans were chanting “Randy Savage” during the show. The fans were moved, due to the fact that they were visible on TV.

When The Rock came out for his promo segment, the crowd was again chanting for the fans dressed as wrestlers. Rock went off script and spoke with the fans during his segment, which reportedly caused some people backstage to “freak out.” Officials were reportedly upset because the fans had distracted the crowd, and were then getting rewarded with TV time. Word is that if anyone other than Rock (or John Cena) had done something similar, they would have been fired. It is said that Rock can basically do anything he wants.
