The Rock has been showing a new side of himself in recent weeks, as he has fully turned heel in his feud with Cody Rhodes. As part of this rivalry, he has brought Rhodes' dog Pharaoh into the mix by calling referring to him as Cody's "goofy ass dog, Shithead." Additionally, The Rock has started referring to himself as "The Final Boss".
During a heated promo on the March 18 episode of WWE Raw, Cody name-dropped Gewirtz and noted that he must have come up with the "Final Boss" name. Gewirtz, a former Head Writer at WWE, took to Twitter/X to respond by writing that he did not come up with "Final Boss". However, he stated that he was the first to tell The Rock about Cody's "spectacularly stupid goofy ass dog."
“Final Boss” isn’t anything I came up with. @TheRock calls himself that because he is that. If it makes you feel better @CodyRhodes, I was the first to tell him about your spectacularly stupid goofy ass dog.
