“That’s Vin “The Rock” Diesel”: Dwayne Johnson’s New Wax Figure Becomes Butt of All Jokes Among WWE Fans
Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, is an undeniably prominent figure in the entertainment industry. His towering physique, charismatic persona, and unparalleled talent have elevated him to the status of a global icon. From his breakthrough role as a professional wrestler to his transition into an actor, he has proven his remarkable versatility, consistently enthralling fans all over the world.
Honoring his exceptional talent and contribution to the world of entertainment, the A-lister has recently received significant recognition this week as the Grévin Museum immortalized him a wax figure. Despite this remarkable accolade, what’s intriguing is that his replica is getting roasted by the fans on social media.
Dwayne Johnson’s wax figure sparks fan frenzy over the likeness
Actor and professional wrestler Dwayne Johnson has built an extensive career in both the film industry and professional WWE worlds. During the late 1990s and early 2000s, his charismatic and electrifying persona, The Rock, was sensational, making him one of the iconic figures of wrestling.
Later, he made his acting debut in The Mummy Returns and starred in numerous successful movies like Jumanji, The Scorpion King, and the Fast and Furious film series.

Last week, the Musée Grévin in Paris unveiled the wax figure of the Black Adam star via Instagram, which depicts the actor with his arms crossed in blue slacks and a golf shirt, a black belt, and sneakers.
His face is smeared with a mixture of a smile and a smirk. The funny part is that fans, instead of enjoying the figure, have gone frenzy over pointing out that it never looked like the star.
The Rock’s Counter Part is called as Vin ‘The Rock’ Diesel’.
Many of them sneaked into the comment section of the account and started roasting the figure, raving that it looks like “Mr. Clean or Vin Diesel”, suggesting the statue is a fusion of Rock and Vin Diesel. And one witty individual even dubbed it as “That’s Vin ‘The Rock’ Diesel”.
Another commentator asserted that this looks nothing like the Fast & Furious alum. Instead of dropping in a wrestling-related pun, the person wrote a movie-related quip:
“Yikes! That is not the Rock, maybe his stuntman lol,”
“Who is this because uhhhh… You do know he’s Samoan and black right lol?” Another one humorously asked, “Why would you white wax (wash) him?”
“A lot of research was needed to make them perfectly match those from The Rock.”
But in contrast, fans commented, “They turned The Rock into Stone Cold Steve Rockstin 🤣🤣”. The other one goes, “That’s not the Rock that’s the Pebble”.

Dwayne Johnson was impressed by his figure at Madame Tussauds
The Jumanji actor is far from any actor who received such a tribute like this, which is accompanied by a series of witty quips.
