Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson talked about running into ‘naked’ John Cena at the Oscars during a visit on Monday on Jimmy Kimmel Live on ABC.
The 51-year-old wrestler and actor was asked by Oscars host Jimmy, 56 about his experience attending the Academy Awards on Sunday in Hollywood.
Dwayne shared that he ran into a bunch of Hollywood icons backstage at the Oscars. He said he met Al Pacino, Sam Rockwell and Sally Field
Jimmy said he had a ‘crazy moment’ when he was coming off the stage with a ‘naked’ John, 46, and ran into Dwyane.
‘You really missed an opportunity to promote Wrestlemania by attacking each other in that moment,’ Jimmy said.
A half-naked John Cena isn’t the guy who I want to attack in that moment,’ Dwayne said.
‘You want him fully naked?,’ Jimmy joked.
‘I need him fully naked before I attack him,’ Dwayne laughed.
‘That was his joke, by the way,’ Dwayne added while pointing at Jimmy. ‘Don’t give me credit.’
John during the awards ceremony helped Jimmy pay tribute to an infamous streaker incident at the 1974 Oscars by coming out holding a card reading Costume Design covering his private parts.
The wrestler was actually wearing a skin-toned covering during the comedy bit.

Jimmy also played a clip of Dwayne at Wrestlemania insulting the fans in Phoenix telling them their city had the highest for use of cocaine and meth.
‘Finally, you cactus loving crackheads finally have something worth shooting in your veins,’ The Rock was shown telling the audience in Phoenix who cheered him on.
Dwayne said it was the best to go back to WWE and be the ‘heel’ and he was enjoying saying what he wanted.
Jimmy asked if Dwayne would be smearing his men’s skin care line Papatui on his fellow wrestlers.
‘I will but before and after not during the match,’ Dwayne said.
Dwayne said he started the skin care line because people would ask him what he did with his skin.
‘I wanted to create a product that was clean,’ Dwayne said. ‘It was also important that everything was under $10.’
Jimmy then played a funny clip of Dwayne stopping by his sidekick Guillermo’s house to get him ready with his skin care line after a night of partying at the Oscars.
The show started with Justin Timberlake, 43, coming out as host to a long standing ovation.
‘Unfortunately Jimmy couldn’t be here tonight as you can imagine, he’s pretty beat,’ Justin said.
Just then Jimmy, who hosted the Oscars the night before, walked in behind him.
‘I am here,’ Jimmy said.
‘I’m confused, why are you here,’ Justin said. ‘I’m the guest host.’
‘No, you are the musical guest, why would I need a guest host,’ Jimmy said.
‘Because you were out all night at the Oscar after party,’ Justin said.
‘Not really,’ Jimmy said. ‘I went to one party and then to bed.’
‘That’s so sad,’ Justin said.
Jimmy said he could take it from here. Jimmy told him that he was his favorite Justin. Justin replied telling him that he was his second favorite Jimmy, referencing his friendship with NBC talk show host Jimmy Fallon, 49,
Later, Justin performed his song No Angels from his new album Everything That I Thought It Was.
