THE ROCK COMMENTS ON WHETHER HE'D TAKE A CORPORATE ROLE IN WWE, WWE POTENTIALLY BEING SOLD

By Mike Johnson on 2022-10-18 12:41:00

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was interviewed by BNN Bloomberg about a number of topics, including WWE's future and his potential part in it.  Highlights:

On a potential WWE sale: “I've known Vince for a very, very long time and he's a businessman.  I think the key if there were a sale of the WWE is to make sure that whoever acquires that brand in that property, you've got to love the wrestling business. Of course, you can love the asset, and you can love everything that comes with it, but you got to love the professional wrestling business … because if not, then you could kind of see the writing on the wall; four or five years down the road, what will happen?”

On Rock's potential involvement with WWE on an executive level in the future: " Nick [Khan] and I have talked about that, and we always enjoy that over a bottle of Teremana [Johnson’s tequila brand].  I love the wrestling business. I grew up in it. My grandfather [and] my dad started here in Canada, where [his father] was born. So, I'm not quite too sure if a board seat is in my future, but possibly other things are in my future, for sure.”
