"How it should be with rooks" - The Rock responds to current SmackDown star's incredible story about him
The Rock has recalled an incredible story by Mustafa Ali, which included the Hollywood megastar interacting with the WWE Cruiserweight Division.
In the story described by Ali, he noted that The Rock was present at Monday Night RAW a few years back and was doing some filming for the 'Fighting With My Family' movie.
The Rock was busy with his camera crew and walked by all the cruiserweights, who were quite disciplined while The Great One was filming. What followed next was a rather wholesome moment, as he greeted all the cruiserweight superstars and shook hands.
“Saying hello shouldn’t be a big deal, but when you’re brand-new and one of the biggest stars in the world treats you as a peer, it means something.”
@AliWWE and other WWE stars share their favorite memories of @TheRock for #Rock25.

Taking to Twitter, The Rock responded to Ali's story and claimed that he still remembers the moment very well. The former WWE Champion noted that he was impressed with how sharp everyone looked and how respectful the cruiserweight stars were.
The Rock concluded by writing that he is happy for all the superstars who made it this far and had a piece of advice for them as well:
@ryansatin @AliWWE @FOXSports I remember this moment very well. I was impressed at how sharp everyone was dressed and how well respectful you guys just stood there. Mouths shut, ears & eyes open. How it should be with rooks.
I’m happy you’ve made it to the dance. Make all the money you can and HAVE FUN! Rock
