The Rock: Networks, ‘Standards And Practices’ Have Issues With My Language, I’d Rather Be Real

The Rock wants to have fun.

The Rock has sparked some buzz with his promos in recent weeks; both on WWE programming and on social media, he has sent heated messages to Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. In several of these promos, “The Great One” has used foul language, so he has been somewhat censored by the networks.

In a post on Instagram, The Rock shared a clip of his “concert” from the March 15 episode of WWE SmackDown. He quoted his line about how the crowd “sounded like somebody the Rock can love – drunk and horny.” He wrote that networks and “standards and practices” have issues with his language, but he’d rather be real than not.

The Rock stated that he talked from the heart, shot from the hip, and always tried to have fun.
