What The Rock whispered to WWE legend after an intense spot

The Rock revealed he expressed concern over Paul Heyman after the latter received a Rock Bottom through the announce table during a WWE match.

In SummerSlam 2002, The People's Champion unsuccessfully defended his WWE Undisputed Championship against Brock Lesnar, who was accompanied by Paul Heyman. After numerous interferences during the match, the manager was on the receiving end of a Rock Bottom.

In a tweet, a clip of the aforementioned spot was posted, which saw the former champion whisper something to Paul after he landed on the table. When asked about it, Dwayne replied that he was making sure that the veteran was okay before thanking him.

"Good eye Austin that you would catch my whispering to Paul. I said to him what I say to everyone I did this crazy, dangerous sh*t with 😂💀I made sure he was ok and I thanked him. Loved working with @HeymanHustle. We shared a love and passion for our wild world of pro wrestling."

Paul Heyman is currently aligned with The Rock's family, The Bloodline with Roman Reigns and The Usos. The special counsel has been absent since SummerSlam after an F5 from Brock Lesnar.
