• Old School WWF Legend Celebrates His Birthday
Old School WWF Attitude Era Legend “The People’s Champion” The Rock (Real name: Dwayne Johnson) celebrates his birthday today.
The Rock had his World Wrestling Federation debut at the Survivor Series 1996 PPV (at that time as “Rocky Maivia”) and wrestled for them full-time until 2002, but returned for storylines & matches in 2003, 2004, 2011, 2012 & 2013.
Nowadays Dwayne Johnson is among the #1 actors in Hollywood and almost everyone on the planet knows who he is.
Rumors have it, that The Rock considers running for president at some point in the future, and with being one of the most charismatic & lovable people on the planet, it’s safe to say that he would have more than just a big chance of winning whatever election he competes in.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROCK!
