Bengaluru, Feb 24: As reported earlier, The Rock made a special appearance on this week's WWE Raw but only for the fans in attendance. His production house, Seven Bucks Production and WWE Studios are filming a movie based on Paige's life and the entire crew was present to shoot a scene at the Staples Center.
Top 5 rumours of this week
Once the main show of Raw went off the air, the People's champ made his grand entrance to announce that they are going to film the scene where Paige won the Divas Championship from AJ Lee. This led to a fired up CM Punk chant all over the arena.

The Rock calling out Punk was a stunt pulled out by him just to garner some attention from the fans all around the world. Although the move was not appreciated by either Vince or Triple H, he will not be facing any consequences since WWE needs him more rather than he needs WWE.
This is not the first time that he has gone off the script on Raw. Previously, while cutting a promo on Raw in 2016, he went on to speak with the fans going completely out of the script. WWE did not take any steps since they don't want to sour the relation between the two parties, anyway.
