Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson were involved in a very awkward exchange at the 2025 Golden Globes as the frosty moment got people online talking.

Things turned sour when Diesel arrived on the Golden Globes stage to present the box office achievement award, which went to Wicked.

But people on social media couldn't get enough of his comment to Johnson.

Before presenting the award, Diesel looked down and said: "Hey Dwayne."

Diesel had a smirk on his face as Johnson just smiled, which quickly left his face, as a few in the audience awkwardly laughed.

Diesel and Johnson had starred alongside each other in Fast Five, Furious 6 and The Fate of the Furious.

But the WWE legend made headlines when he posted on social media calling out one of his co-stars.

He didn't name anyone at the time, but it was later confirmed to be Diesel.

Their squabble led to Johnson leaving the main franchise to film the spin-off Hobbs & Shaw, which starred Jason Statham and Idris Elba.

Needless to say, the incident between Diesel and Johnson got people online talking as they referenced Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars.

One X user wrote: "Vin Diesel walking up to present the cinematic and box office achievement award, seeing The Rock and saying 'Dwayne' was hella awkward lmaoooo."

A second said; "I thought we were going to have a Chris Rock/Will Smith moment there with Vin Diesel and The Rock."

A third added: "Vin Diesel and The Rock gotta shoot the fade man I don't care they're in their 50s. They hate each other."

A fourth commented: "You can cut the tension between The Rock and Vin Diesel with a knife."

A fifth joked: "The Rock wanted to hit Vin Diesel with the Peoples elbow."

Another said: "Vin Diesel better stop playing with the Rock. After this last Fast and Furious movie, it’s over for dude."
