Dolph Ziggler took a passive aggressive shot at Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson over The Great One's limited schedule with WWE via Twitter.

A Twitter user wrote to the WWE Superstar this week, "Couldn't decide which flexforce WWE figure to buy between your action figure and @therock 's.. chose the rock in the end!" Ziggler responded, "Typical, just make sure you only play with it 4-5 times a year...."

I'm a fan of Ziggler and yes it was a tad funny but what a fool, are guys really still taking shots at The Rock? If the younger up and comers and so called future main eventers could actually draw fans/ratings then Vince wouldn't have to keep looking to legends to bring in ratings. Maybe they should use the time they spend complaining about people taking their spot and actually earn it. The Rock was the main draw of WM27 and WM28 and earned them more money.

I love Ziggler! No homo.

Honestly though, I hope Ziggler doesn't keep this up, I'd really like to see him at main event status again.

It's no doubt a work, like the Primo & Rosa stuff. WWE has apparently been wanting their wrestlers to use the twitter accounts they have to work people. I'm sure Dolph gets on fine with Rock.

Ziggler didn't do anything big here, that fan was pretty much asking to be buried. Hilarious comment, too.

I love how if someone criticizes The Rock, Hatred whatever the hell you call yourself these days is right there to defend him. Seriously it was a minor joke, calm down and stop taking things like it's the end of the world. It was a great comeback and I enjoyed it.

I know! And besides, THE NEW WWE SUPERSTARS ARE OVER!

God, people keep saying 'Well, if they would sale more tickets, and get more attention, then people like Brock and Rock wouldn't need to come back." Stop bitching. That is a terrible excuse. If they weren't getting over at all, then the WWE would have flopped the moment your precious Rock left. WWE has kept constant 3.0 and over ratings. Which I think is damn good.

And as for Ziggler, I laughed out loud. Well done Ziggler.

When I read the title I was expecting something more scandalus than this. Nothing wrong with what Ziggler said and I actually find it quite funny, pretty sure The Rock wouldn't care about that comment.

I pretty much agree with everyone here. It's a simple joke end of discussion. Not really a shot. Everyone makes small jokes about others and no one ever calls it passive aggressive. Ziggler has actually made a reference to this saying people need to calm down and not try and deconstruct every little thing.

Gotta think though Ziggler is probably one of the if not the specific guy that Rock's return held back I mean he was going from working 1-2 matches a ppv to a 6 on 6 match at Mania. Out of all the guys in the back I think Ziggler is probaby the most effected in this situation

Come on HATRED, you're better than that.

This was just a funny comment made by Ziggler and nothing more. Made me laugh, which is probably the whole point of it.

End of story.

Hopefully Ziggler goes to Smackdown because he's WHC material. The guy is too talented to still be in mid feuds.

I'm fine with what Ziggler said. I'm a big fan of the Rock since my kid days. I like Ziggler a lot now too because he has proven that he can hang in the Main Event spot. Ziggler sells many bumps too. I mean if Ziggler would of been in a match with a broom stick, he could still sell that match. I was really hoping Ziggler would of have his own match at Mania but putting him in the Teddy vs Johnny card was just a low blow for him. He didn't look pleased through out that segment. He is getting very over with the fans and he believes that he deserves to be in better spots on the PPV cards now which is probably why he feels that he should let his voice be heard in a sense of humor fashion.

Ziggler is a clear main event material. He needs to be drafted over to SmackDown to start his main event career.

Dolph has already said that he wasn't exactly the biggest fan of Rock coming back so this isn't surprise but it was a joke not anything to be "omg shut up Dolph you're to kiss Rock's ass" like someone seems to basically always say when anybody remotely says anything that isn't positive about Rock.

I don't think the comment by dolph was that bad, really
