He’s been dubbed The Great One, The People’s Champion and The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment, but mere words fail to capture the essence of the most charismatic Superstar of all time. Although the catchphrase “boots to asses” comes awfully close. The first third-generation Superstar in WWE history, the man born Dwayne Johnson was destined for sports-entertainment immortality since birth, but his rise to the status of a pop culture icon was harder to predict. In the time since he made his debut as a grinning good guy at the 1996 Survivor Series, The Brahma Bull has won seven WWE Championships, headlined WrestleMania, hosted “Saturday Night Live,” written a New York Times bestselling autobiography and starred in films like “Fast Five” and “The Game Plan,” which have grossed literally billions of dollars. And, the amazing thing is, he’s just getting started.Son of WWE Hall of Famer Rocky Johnson, the University of Miami footballstandout showed promise early when he won the Intercontinental Championship within months of first setting foot in the ring. From there, The Rock’s momentum never slowed as he laid the smackdown on “Attitude Era” rivals like “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Triple H while spouting off endless catchphrases that immediately became part of national conversation. With one eyebrow cocked, The People’s Champion would warn jabronis to “Know your role and shut your mouth” or “Just bring it!” before delivering his devastating finishing maneuver, The Rock Bottom, on the way to victory.The 6-foot-5 competitor was soon fielding offers to star in films like “The Scorpion King” and “Gridiron Gang” thanks to the endless charisma and sex appeal he exuded in the squared circle. Now a Hollywood leading man, The Rock left WWE to pursue his acting career, only to successfully return to the ring against John Cena in the main event of WrestleMania XXVIII — and prove to WWE’s newest generation of fans that hetruly is The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment.Rock’s victory over the Cenation leader guaranteed him a WWE Championship opportunity at the 2013 Royal Rumble. The Great One took advantage of the opening and ended CM Punk’s historic 434-day reign in epic fashion. One month later, in a brutal rematch at Elimination Chamber, The Brahma Bull once again prevailed against the deviousformer champion. Now, the stage was set for an epic WrestleMania return bout against the Cenation leader.In front of more than 80,000 WWE fans, The Rock took every opportunity to try and throw Cena off his hustle. The head games did not faze Cena this time, and The Rock fell victim to an Attitude Adjustment, with the WWE Title slipping from his grasp in the blink of an eye.On April 6, 2014, The Great One returned at WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans, where he joined “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan in the ring to kickoff The Show of Shows for an epic WrestleMania moment.At Royal Rumble 2015, after Roman Reigns eliminated Big Show and Kane, The Authority members attacked Reigns prompting The Rock to come to his aid. The Great One and Reigns cleared the ring. Although Reigns thought he was victorious, Rusev — who was never eliminated — attempted to win the matchbut Reigns secured the victory and celebrated the win with The Peoples Champ.
