The Rock weighs in on Raw at MSG.
WWE Raw returned to Madison Square Garden on Monday with a packed show that featured Steve Austin dolling out a Stone Cold Stunner to AJ Styles. Styles interrupted the contract signing between Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman and paid the price, getting dropped by Austin.
Following the segment, Austin took to Twitter to comment on AJ's actions and the Stunner.

The Rock, who made more money selling the Stunner than any other wrestler in history, chimed in on AJ's bump.
Yeah AJ - YOU HEAR HIM TALKIN TO YOU HILLBILLY BOY!!!! (lil’ inside attitude era joke). Real talk that Stunner back bump, flip into a scissors sell was a thing of beauty -- ----
