Tension Between Vin Diesel and The Rock On FAST 8 Rumored To Be WWE Set Up
So remember how The Rock went to Instagram and said one of his costars was a "Candy Ass" and that he will look mad during some scenes of Fast 8 because he was actually mad on the set? Rumors are circulating via a report by Life and Style Magazine that the entire thing is a ploy to advertise a WWE match. They did say, however, that the event was grounded in some truth.
I'm just going to go on the record that I think whoever told Life and Style Magazine that is straight up lying. In no way do I ever see Vin Diesel stepping in a ring to wrestle one of WWE's most prolific and protected stars without having him annihilate (in a wrestling way) Diesel...and I don't think Diesel would agree to that either. Add that to the fact that The Rock hasn't actually wrestled in WWE for quite a few years and I think someone just made up a story to get some attention or they heard whisperings about something that will 100% fall through before Wrestlemania.
You'd think it would be cool...but it wouldn't be. Every time a celebrity wrestles in WWE, it's just awkward and weird. It would be like you trying to bat in a major league baseball game. You think you know what to do, but you don't realize you don't until you're up there.

Really, the only exception is Pee-Wee Herman. If it's something like that, I'll accept it, but otherwise, no dice!
