Former WWE champion Dwyane “The Rock” Johnson arrived in Japan amidst a media and fan frenzy that saw thousands of people show up for his appearances promoting his movie Hercules.

Perhaps the biggest surprise was the appearance of The Great Muta who came out during the premiere of the movie dressed as Hercules. The two had a stare down and looked like they were going to fight but then they laughed and hugged each other.

“It is a real honor and a great privilege to meet The Great Muta,” Rock said, as he went on to explain how many members of his family have actually wrestled Muta.
