The Rock has played tons of roles where he probably could have used a tank but he just did the work himself. Which probably means it was a good idea to name a tank after him. The Rock was also pretty stoked to be named after a tank. He said he was honored and that the tank was "Sexy AF" while also giving some love to the troops.

Of course The Peoples Champ had people talking with this quote. Some people were upset, some people praised him, and others were in the middle. Saying they don't support war but they always support the troops so its okay with them. Honestly, you can think what you want cause at the end of the day-IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOU THINK, JABRONI! ALL THAT MATTERS, IS IF YA CAN SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN!!!
