UPDATE: As reported earlier, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was forced to miss Monday night’s Los Angeles premiere of his latest film, Pain & Gain, due to an emergency hernia operation earlier in the day. Speaking to E! Online on the red carpet, movie director Michael Bay suggested the injury stemmed from Johnson’s wrestling exploits.
“He was pushing it too hard,” Bay said. “[He] needs to grow up and stop wrestling 300-pound men.”
Johnson responded to Bay’s remark via Twitter this afternoon, writing, “Funny sh*t! Michael Bay joked I should stop wrestling 300lb men. I agree – I’ll switch to women. #ALLPainNOGain.”
Triple H also responded with the following tweet of his own:
“@Loug30: @TripleH @StephMcMahon @JRsBBQ Michael Bay saying @TheRock needs to grow up, and stop wrestling 300 pound men?” Who’s 300lbs???
ORIGINAL: The Rock had to miss the LA premiere of Pain and Gain, due to having surgery to repair the torn abdominal muscles from his WrestleMania match with John Cena. At the premiere, director Michael Bay commented on The Rock, stating the following…
“He was pushing it too hard. He needs to grow up and stop wrestling 300-pound men.”
