• WWF Legend Comments On The Rock Possibly Running For President
During a recent appearance on Larry King Now, Old School WWF Legend Chris Jericho was asked if “The People’s Champion” The Rock could pull off being the President of USA.
Below is what Jericho said:
“Absolutely. We live in a world now, I call it ‘The era of the celebrity President’. Started with Obama a little bit, and now with Trump. No previous experience, knows how to work a camera, knows how to be charismatic.
That’s what you need to be the President now. We’ve already established that. You don’t have to be a Governor. You don’t even have to be a Senator.”
• The Rock Reacts To SmackDown 1000
While The Rock wasn’t able to appear on SmackDown 1000, he did tweet out a cool short story regarding SmackDown:
Huge #SD1000 congrats to my @WWE family!
Fun fact, in 1998, I said to @VinceMcMahon “I’m gonna use the word ‘Smackdown’ tonight in my promo”. He said what’s that mean? I said it means I’m gonna whup some ass. He belly laughed and said say it!
The rest was history! #IfYaSmell ? https://t.co/IVXI0WkkGl— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) October 16, 2018
