Man regrets informing The Rock that wrestling is fake
Australian writer, comedian and poet Ben Pobjie clearly likes to live life on the edge, as he recently dared to tell Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson that wrestling was fake.
Congrats to my good bud @RealKurtAngle and his return tonight to a @WWE ring. Special athlete and great human being. Have FUN brotha #WWETLC

Dwayne, wrestling isn't real. It's time you knew. https://t.co/3iqKjHfNAn

Johnson’s response was swift and brutal.
😂 👏🏾 I like the dry wit
Correct, I do in fact know wrestling isn’t real. Thats why I said “have fun”. I also know, you can go fuck yourself.— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) October 22, 2017
Pobjie soon realised that you shouldn’t insult the sport of a 6ft 5in, 260lb man on Twitter.
My worst nightmare has come true. The Rock thinks I wanted to insult him. I am scum. https://t.co/hlZ3oknRZm

I'm playing a dangerous game hoping @TheRock gets my zany sense of humour and doesn't just have me killed.

Thankfully nobody was murdered and a friendship that will last for ever* was born.
Haha I just hit you back. Yes, I not only got the zany but appreciated it as well. 🙌🏾
