‘What the Rock has done is incredible!’

The Liver King has addressed Joe Rogan’s claims that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson takes steroids.

Last month, internet star Brian Johnson a.k.a. The Liver King was outed after leaked emails revealed he took more than $10,000 of performance-enhancing drugs every month to maintain his ripped physique.

Now, the Liver King has spoken out about claims from Rogan that The Rock also does steroids.

At the start of December, Rogan responded to an apology video posted by the Liver King, and then accused Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson of taking steroids as well.

Rogan said: “I wasn’t surprised at all [about the Liver King]. It completely makes sense but that’s exactly what I expected. There’s no way you can look like that, in your 40s, that jacked, I mean he’s preposterously jacked.

“The Rock should come clean right now. He should make a video in response to the Liver King video like, ‘I need to talk to you because The Rock’s been lying.’ There’s not a f*cking chance in hell he’s clean, not a chance in hell as big as The Rock is at 50.

“The point is you can’t even get there with HRT (hormone replacement therapy). That’s not HRT. He is so massive and he’s so different than he was when he was 30.”

During an appearance on YouTuber Anthony Pompliano’s show, Johnson was explicitly asked if he thought The Rock is on steroids.

He responded: “I’m not picking any fights with anybody. I don’t think he [Rogan] should have picked that fight either!”

Johnson then had the recent “bad blood” between Rogan and The Rock explained to him, as he apparently wasn’t aware of the drama between the pair.

He then continued: “You don’t want to pick a fight with The Rock, literally and figuratively, this is not the guy. So I’ll just say I think what The Rock has done has been absolutely incredible.

“First of all I don’t think he’s on steroids. Is he taking any hormone replacement therapy, I don’t know.”

Earlier this year, Dwayne Johnson distanced himself from his long-time friend Rogan after clips of the podcast host using racist language emerged online.

Johnson had voiced his support for Rogan in the aftermath of the backlash Rogan had received for spreading misinformation on his podcast.

Underneath a video from Rogan in which he apologises for some of the views he shared on The Joe Rogan Experience, Johnson commented: “Great stuff here brother.

“Perfectly articulated. Look forward to coming on one day and breaking out the tequila with you.”

However a video was then shared online of every time Rogan had used the n-word on his podcast, with author Don Winslow tweeting Johnson to ask whether he still supported the podcast host.

He wrote: “You’re a hero to many people and using your platform to defend Joe Rogan, a guy that used and laughed about using the N word dozens of times, is a terrible use of your power.

“Have you actually listened to this man’s many racist statements about Black people?”
