Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and John Cena, two former WWE champions, have put their past beef behind them, as revealed in an interview with Andy Cohen in Watch What Happens Live!.

Johnson, who has been a successful actor for over a decade, produced a movie headlined by Cena.

The collaboration indicates that their feud has been resolved.

The Rock, who has several business ventures and has been a leading actor in major films, stated, “I think we squashed [the bad blood].

“You know, as a matter of fact, John is the star of one of my movies that I’m producing.

“And I think he’s doing great, he has done great in his transition and he really wants to continue to work on it.”

However, there was a moment of friction between the two in the past.

The Rock left the WWE and Cena made some comments in radio interviews that didn’t sit well with him.

Years later, the two decided to use this as a storyline for their wrestling match.

“Fortunately, having the biggest box office record in WWE history which was awesome, and once it was all done, like all silly, you know, beefs like that, like we were so cool,” Johnson said.

The collaboration between Johnson and Cena is in The Janson Directive, a movie headlined by Cena and produced by The Rock.

The Janson Directive, written by Robert Ludlum, is a thriller that was published posthumously in 2002.

The book has been adapted into several box office thrillers, including the Jason Bourne series.

Talks of a Ludlum Cinematic Universe began after The Janson Directive was picked up for a live-action adaptation in 2014.

The Rock was initially going to lead The Janson Directive, but due to scheduling conflicts, he had to step back from that role.

Cena stepped in to take on the lead role after The Rock’s departure.

However, not much progress has been made since Cena took on the role in 2014, and the film has been stuck in development.

The Rock and Cena also appeared in the Fast & Furious franchise, but their time on the franchise did not overlap.

The Rock joined the franchise in Fast Five, and Cena joined in F9 after The Rock had left.

There were also rumors that The Rock would appear in the DC Cinematic Universe, but that never came to fruition.

The reconciliation between the two wrestlers is a significant development for fans who had hoped to see them on-screen together.

While there may not be any immediate plans for that to happen, the two have put their differences aside and are now working together on a film.

Cena’s transition from the WWE to Hollywood has been smoother than The Rock’s.

Cena has appeared in several successful films, including the recent Suicide Squad movie directed by James Gunn.

The Rock acknowledges Cena’s talents, stating, “Perhaps because Johnson already traced the path from WWF into the filmmaking industry and the criticism that he endured (and graciously overcame) with his physicality and garnering leading roles in big-budget movies already made Cena’s transition manifold easier. But that does nothing to diminish the latter’s talents, as proven recently by the molding hands of James Gunn.”

The Rock has been a trailblazer for wrestlers transitioning into Hollywood, and his success has paved the way for others to follow in his footsteps.

Cena’s success in Hollywood shows that wrestlers can be successful actors as well.
