His friendship with Kevin Hart, Emily Blunt and Gal Gadot is visible to all. However, at the same time, The Rock’s relationship with one of his popular co-stars soured over the years.

But everything started to go downhill after a few years and the two mega stars have been at odds ever since. Recently, it emerged that Vin Diesel wasn’t very happy with The Rock’s growing success and fame at the box office.
Reports suggest Vin Diesel is ‘obsessed’ with Dwayne Johnson
Dwayne Johnson first appeared in the Fast and Furious franchise in 2011 in Quick 5. He continued his run with the successful franchise for a few more years before stepping down. One of the reasons for the former WWE Champion’s decision to step away from the F&F franchise was the breakdown of his friendship with Vin Diesel.
In 2016, The Rock referred to some of his male co-stars as “candy a***es”. Since then, Diesel and DJ no longer agree. Although their friendship has been on repeat for some time now, things escalated after Diesel made a public plea for the WWE star to return to the franchise, citing his family’s closeness to the star.
In response, DJ accused Diesel of “manipulation” after making it clear he wouldn’t be returning.
Now, a recent report says Diesel, worth $225 million, is said to be jealous of The Rock’s Black Adam success. An insider told Radar “Vin tries so hard to be the man that other men and women want to be with, but he will always be overshadowed by The Rock.” Moreover, they added, “His ego is extremely fragile and he can’t help but think Dwayne is the better man.”

Plus, they said the beef is almost one-sided with Diesel, becoming obsessed with The Rock. They revealed, “The sad thing is that this feud isn’t about two guys. It’s mostly a one-sided thing, and it’s all about Win, who has become obsessed with Dwayne.”
