haha & I thought MY name didn't make any sense

As previously reported, WWE's Instagram account showed a photo of Ziggler holding the WWE title earlier this week with the caption, "A glimpse into the future?" While replying to the post, The Rock wrote, "I'd co-sign this decision [one-hundred percent]. (Ziggler is a) Talented dude and always has a spark in his presentations."

McIntyre responded with The Rock's infamous, "It doesn't matter what you think," catchphrase.

Ziggler replied, "can you please untag me from your never-ending convo about me & how you know more than the rock about who's good and who sucks at wrestling?"
