Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has shared his appreciation for being part of WWE once again, amid his commitments to TKO’s Board of Directors. Sitting down with LAD Bible to promote his new movie Red One, Johnson delighted in being able to bring his star power to WWE events.
“Any opportunity I can to go back and not only make appearances, but help to expand the company, whether domestically or globally, I always go back. It’s also part of my obligation that I happily do.”
Johnson is closing in on 30 years as part of WWE after making his in-ring TV debut as Rocky Maivia at Survivor Series 1996. While the company hs changed considerably since then, Johnson remains grateful for all that wrestling has given him.
“I came along in the 90s and wrestled for Vince into the 2000s, so there’s some real connective tissue that goes back generations, and for that I will forever be grateful. It provided me a platform and a way to express myself in ways that nothing else would allow, other than acting.”
Johnson joined TKO’s Board of Directors in January of this year, which the ‘Final Boss’ called “just another way that I could help the company grow.” Whether it’s representing WWE on TKO’s Board or stunning fans with a surprise appearance at WWE Bad Blood, Johnson remains steadfast in his duties to the company.
