Ahmed Johnson was in WWE when The Rock started working the company. Ahmed spoke on Why It Ended, where he revealed that once The Rock became popular in the company, his attitude changed considerably. This is what he said:
“Oh my god did it change [The Rock’s attitude backstage] big time.”
“Yeah, you know when he started to get all the fame and glory. When he turned heel — when he was babyface, they booed him and it was kinda like a D-Lo [Brown]. You know with D-Lo no matter what side of the fans aren’t really going to take to him. I mean they tried everything with D-Lo and the fans just never bought into him.”
“When The Rock turned heel I give him his props, he was a hell of a heel. He was good at what he did, but then you know his attitude started changing with it and actually it really threw me off.”
So it seems fame can change just about anyone. Even if that someone is The Rock.
