History Funny / DwayneJohnson

* VinceMcMahon once placed The Rock as the special guest referee during a WWF Championship match between TripleH and the British Bulldog. The Rock detested both, and wasn't interested in giving either any sort of victory. At one point he knocked out the Bulldog and when HHH went to cover, The Rock went to make the count and well - "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6Ct9F57sfU&t=6m55s 1...2...IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE ROCK COUNTS TO 3!!!!]]" He also played the EasilyDistractedReferee for all it's worth. Chatting up the fans at ringside while TripleH hit the Pedigree and covered. When he did see HHH hit the pedigree and cover, he was so awed by the Pedigree that he forgot to count, instead applauding HHH and offering him two thumbs up. The Rock spent most of the match just doing commentary. This is the match that gave the world the most electrifying sliding move in sports entertainment, the sliding People's Elbow.

* Even after he turned heel in 2004, the Rock was just too damn funny to truly boo...as evidenced by his interview right before his match with {{Goldberg}} where he called him a "whisker-biscuit bald-headed bitch" and referred to Terri Runnels as "Lemon Panties".

-->'''The Rock''': [[DidNotDoResearch The Rock's birthday is May 2nd]], you stupid son of a bitch!

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t2RCUVMrog This interview before Wrestlemania 27.]] After he puts over the new talent for working so hard despite having to follow TheAttitudeEra, an interviewer brings up JohnCena.

* Basically, every damn time he grabbed a mic. He was one of the best shooters the industry's ever had. Also, any promo following his 2004 FaceHeelTurn. Hell, just search for "The Rock Funny" on YouTube and have a blast for a few hours.

* Before Coachman and Cole were even employed, The Rock's personal ButtMonkey was Kevin Kelly, who he'd often accuse of being a hermaphrodite.
-->''Shut up, Hermie!''
* The Rock's [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5r8dx_the-rock-promo-on-billy-gun_sport "And God Spoke To Billy"]] promo, which not only unleashed the "IT DOESN'T MATTER" catchphrase on the world (which in turn led to several other great Rock comedy bits, and Mick Foley's eventual subversion of the gag that got a 20-second standing ovation), but gains its status here by basically ending the idea of "Billy Gunn, main event prospect" in four minutes.

* The Rock, HulkHogan, and Wrestler/{{Kane}} had to team up against the [=nWo=] (Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and X-Pac). [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWj_1tYI2Ug The promo right before the match was comedy gold.]] Kane had been sliding out of his 'Big Silent Giant' gimmick, but it was still hilarious to see him go from silent scary monster to mocking Hogan's and Rock's slogans. Take note of The Rock mouthing "Kanenites?" in confusion, it's easily the capper to the entire hilarious promo.

* When the Rock came back [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkLhTMTZn20 to Torooonn...]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_o_ObX9lO-Q ...Toronnnnn...]] the rest is up to you to watch.

** And as if it couldn't get more amusing, The Rock eventually knocked them both out, took the championship belt, rang the bell, and ''declared himself champion''

[[DwayneJohnson The Rock]]: walking, talking FunnyMoment master.

* Basically, every damn time he grabbed a mic. He was one of the best shooters the industry's ever had. Also, any promo following his 2004 FaceHeelTurn.

** As well as the fact that The Rock would be on such a roll that even Coach had trouble keeping a straight face while being clowned, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTAVYTN4PpU as seen here]].

* Hell, just YouTube "The Rock Funny" and have a blast for a few hours.

--->"The Rock ain't no rapper, and clearly, neither are you."

* The highest-rated segment of RAW '''ever'''. On September 27, 1999, MickFoley decided to give The Rock a birthday present. It didn't quite turn out as planned... [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUQVTsShUxo "THE ROCK:]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gb-k87BOn4I THIS IS]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_B83pNkCd0 YOUR LIFE!!!]]

[[DwayneJohnson The Rock]]. Walking, talking CrowningMomentOfFunny.

* All those times the Rock embarrassed Jonathan Coachman: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qez--Iq68A0 forcing him to sing ''Copacabana'']], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXf7Y6eAkuU to dance the Charleston]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1TC8TgrFRI to say his prayers]], among other hilarious tasks. The Coach's ridiculously goofy compliance only adds to the comedy.

* "MichaelCole, The Rock thinks you should go suck on a monkey's nipple." ThisTroper believes no more powerful putdown has ever been uttered by mortal man.
** What about the follow-up? "...well, go on! Go suck on a monkey's nipple! GO!"

--> Shut up, Hermie!
* The Rock's [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5r8dx_the-rock-promo-on-billy-gun_sport "And God Spoke To Billy"]] promo, which not only unleashed the "IT DOESN'T MATTER" catchphrase on the world (which in turn led to several other great Rock comedy bits, and Mick Foley's eventual subversion of the gag that got a 20-second standing ovation), but gains its status as a crowning moment by basically ending the idea of "Billy Gunn, main event prospect" in four minutes.

* During a match with TheUndertaker, The Rock went to do his People's Elbow. When he bounced off the ropes to deliver the final part of the move, TheUndertaker [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QViZn378N2M#t=0m45s sat up like he usually does]] ... and the Rock kicked him in the chest to flatten him out and dropped the elbow anyway.
* His riffing on the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YS3-punpX0Q&feature=related "12 Days of Christmas"]] song to Test.

* During [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KAW_-5iq0A one promo]], the Rock managed to get out-funny'd by KurtAngle. Note Rock's reaction as Kurt starts talking about "jugs." Kurt apparently just ad-libbed that given how the Rock spends the rest of the segment grinning like he's trying not to outright laugh.

--> "''You look like a drunk hobbit!''"
* After a rather epic rant at JohnCena, he finished it up with this.
--> "The Rock [[HesBack is back]] to scratch a major itch, so enjoy your Fruity Pebbles you Yabba Dabba Bitch!"

---> "The Rock ain't no rapper, and clearly, neither are you."
* From this week's Birthday RAW, The Rock shutting MichaelCole up...AGAIN
--> "''You drunk hobbit jackbag bitch!''"
** He then Rock Bottomed Cole with a "Go Heat, Bitch!" followed by a People's Elbow.
*** For context, MichaelCole was wearing a Kevin Garnett jersey. [[WhatAnIdiot In Miami]].
