During the latest episode of WWE Smackdown, Dwayne The Rock Johnson was in Memphis, and took a shot at Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant. During his diss of Seth Rollins, The Rock recited the following:

"Cackling and dancing is all that you do. No wonder that your wife is more popular than you. You're so damn desperate to make them all cheer, but The Rock is going to make that title disappear. You're simply an embarrassment, son. Just like Ja Morant when he's waving a gun. I love you Ja. Get better soon."

The Rock is of course referencing the two gun related incidents that Morant had last season, when the Grizzlies star was seen on Instagram live waving what appeared to be a gun on two separate occasions. Morant has served suspensions for both of those incidents, and has not had anything like that pop up since being reinstated from his most recent suspension.

Morant reacted to being name dropped by The Rock, sharing this response on X (formerly known as Twitter):

For those unfamiliar, this is a gif of a 50 Cent video where the rapper said, "I just woke up, I look at the computer, the computer say Floyd said, 'F--k T.I., F--k Nelly, F--k 50.' I'm like, 'What he say f--k me for?'"

This was a hilarious response from Morant, who clearly saw what was said.
