Upon his return to WWE in 2011, The Rock entered a long-running feud with John Cena leading to headlining matches at WrestleMania 28 & 29.

A few weeks out from their first encounter, the two icons traded barbs, as per usual, until Cena began airing his grievances. Not with The Rock, but with Dwayne Johnson. The 'Leader Of The Cenation' went off script calling out Johnson for being "self-centred" and "see-through" and having his promo written on his wrists. As a result, for the first time, The Rock was visibly rattled and furious, getting up close to Cena's face.

On 27 February, the following week on RAW, Cena remarked on his accomplishment unnerving his opponent. The pair would trade verbal blows again, and nearly physically, as Cena refused to meet The Rock's gaze and interrupting the 'The Great One'. As the promo concluded, The Rock can be seen mouthing, off-mic, "what the f*** is wrong with you?" before leaving the ring.

Both promos are weird looking back on. Firstly for The Rock's uncharacteristic reactions and secondary for Cena's baffling and, you could say, unprofessional behaviour.
