Dwayne Douglas Johnson, widely known as "The Rock," is a multifaceted figure in the world of entertainment and sports. He first gained fame as a professional wrestler in WWE, where he became one of the most iconic figures during the Attitude Era. Johnson's wrestling career spanned over two decades, during which he won 10 world championships and headlined numerous pay-per-view events, including six WrestleManias. His charisma, athleticism, and ability to connect with fans made him a global superstar, and he is often regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.

Before his wrestling career, Johnson was a promising football player at the University of Miami, where he was part of the 1991 national championship team. However, his football aspirations were cut short after going undrafted in the 1995 NFL Draft and being released by the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League. This setback led him to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, both professional wrestlers, and he quickly rose to prominence in the WWE. His persona as "The Rock" became a cultural phenomenon, known for his electrifying promos and catchphrases.

In addition to his wrestling career, Johnson has become one of the highest-grossing actors in Hollywood. His filmography includes blockbuster franchises such as "Fast & Furious," where his portrayal of Luke Hobbs helped elevate the series to new heights. He has also starred in family-friendly films like "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" and "Moana," where he voiced the character Maui. Johnson's versatility as an actor, combined with his natural charisma, has made him a household name in both action and comedy genres, contributing to his status as one of the world's highest-paid actors.

Beyond wrestling and acting, Johnson is a successful businessman and producer. He co-founded Seven Bucks Productions, which has produced several of his films and television projects, including the HBO series "Ballers" and the autobiographical sitcom "Young Rock." He is also a co-owner of the United Football League and serves on the board of directors of TKO Group Holdings, the parent company of UFC and WWE. His influence extends beyond entertainment, as he has been named one of Time's most influential people in the world on multiple occasions.
