Between monsters of nature, Dwayne Johnson and Giannis Antetonkoumpo necessarily have hooked atoms. The proof with the viral exchange between the two men dated 2019, which had then ignited the web. We imagine, however, that the Greek Freak took a little sweat reading the words of the star of Black Adam…
With his 1m96 and 118 kilos, Dwayne Johnson, alias “The Rock”, has more the physique of an American footballer than a basketball player. Moreover, the WWE Hall of Famer enjoyed a (short) college career in US football, before finally turning to wrestling to become one of the biggest names in the history of the discipline. From now on, the “Great One” is admired everywhere, and in particular by a certain… Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The brilliant exchange between The Rock and Giannis Antetokounmpo
A very big wrestling fan, to the point of engaging in pseudo-fights in the warm-up before Bucks matches, the Greg had published a video in 2019 during which he claimed, accompanied by Pat Connaughton, to be able to lift more cast iron than Johnson. Obviously, the response of the main interested party was not long in coming:
Haha just seeing this. My boys here are stroooong!! Good to see you’re bringing my Iron Paradise to the @NBA. It’s why you’re #1 in the East. @Giannis_An34 might be bionic.

Haha I just saw this. My guys are tough!! It’s nice to see you bringing my Iron Paradise to the NBA. That’s why you’re number 1 in the East. Giannis might be bionic ????????????????????????
Very happy to see his hero answer him, Antetokounmpo had dropped a small provocation following this tweet, explaining that he would “kill” the star of Fast & Furious in the matter! And this time, Rocky’s response had settled the matter:
“I’d kill him” ????????????
Love this dude. It’s why he’s an @NBA beast & the Bucks are #1 in the E.
But you don’t want this smoke, cuz I will slap your lips off into next week, son.
And by that I mean, let’s just get a workout in and enjoy some tequila after ????????????????????. https://t.co/gZcElqPYLd— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) January 5, 2019
“I would kill him” ????????????
I love this guy. That’s why he’s a monster, and that’s why the Bucks are the bosses in the East. But be careful, you don’t want to heat me up too much, because I’m going to give you a huge slap in the face, son.
And by that, I mean: “Let’s go have a bodybuilding session together and drink a good tequila afterwards” ????????????????????
Entertain one day, entertainer always, The Rock gave an imperishable memory to Giannis, who grew up being amazed by the charisma of the one who was then nicknamed the Brahma Bull or the People’s Champion. No one knows if the famous workout and then the cocktail between these two giants materialized, but the exchange in itself is worth a superb memory.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had his moment of glory with Dwayne Johnson, and we imagine that he still thinks about it with a huge smile from time to time. A question now: when will the meeting between these two outstanding showmen?
