"They were not happy" - Wrestling veteran on whether The Rock has backstage heat in WWE

WWE received a massive boost with The Rock's return heading into Philadelphia for the biggest WrestleMania of all time. Recently, Konnan revealed whether The Final Boss had heat in the locker room leading up to the event.

Earlier this year, The Rock decided to change the company's landscape when he returned and aligned with The Bloodline against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. The Final Boss often took more screen time and used foul language in his promos ahead of the event.

Speaking on Keepin' It 100 OFFICIAL, Disco Inferno and Konnan addressed backstage heat on The People's Champion. Konnan revealed that few in the locker room were unhappy with the Hollywood star talking too much time on screen and some heels questioned The Rock's use of foul language.

"Not only that, everybody that I spoke to, which wasn't many, I guarantee you that they were not happy with him taking up extra time. The heels weren't happy, that they couldn't cuss and he could," Konnan said. (From 00:52 to 01:10)

The Rock had one match in WWE at WrestleMania XL

In 2011, The Rock returned to WWE for a lengthy feud with John Cena. The Leader of Cenation eventually dethroned The People's Champion at WrestleMania in New Jersey and cemented himself as the next face of WWE.

Earlier this year, Dwayne Johnson made massive moves behind the scenes, leading to his return to WWE under new leadership. However, The Rock turned heel for the first time in decades.

Instead of going after Roman Reigns in a blockbuster match, The Final Boss feuded with Cody Rhodes and had one match at The Grandest Stage of Them All in Philadelphia.

On the first night, Johnson pinned The American Nightmare in a tag team match, which also had Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, respectively. Later, The Final Boss made a cameo appearance on the second night.

Due to the Bloodline Rules, The Rock appeared and attacked John Cena in the main event between Reigns and Rhodes. The Undertaker then confronted the Final Boss, chokeslamming the star before Cody Rhodes concluded his story.
