The Rock has established his presence as a superstar beyond the wrestling world. He is one of the most popular celebrities with millions of followers on all his social media accounts. He has now gone a step further and broke a couple of Guinness World Records, further solidifying his incredible popularity.

In an Instagram Post, Dwayne Johnson announced that he had recently broken two social media world records. The first one was for being the most followed actor on TikTok. The second one established him as the most followed American in the world.

The Rock also shared a screenshot of his account on its first day. He had zero followers and no content published. He further talked about his journey of starting as a pimply face kid with an afro who became famous for wearing a fanny pack and raising his eyebrow.

The Final Boss had always asked himself what the key to real power and influence was on social media. He advised people to speak directly, shoot from the hip, be authentic, and be kind and good to people. He wanted people to share the lessons they had learned, both good and bad. People should laugh at themselves rather than being pulled into negative sludge and should never contribute to toxicity. His last advice was for people to drink more tequila.

Triple H and Roman Reigns were highly against The Rock becoming WWE Undisputed Champion at WrestleMania XL

WWE has tried to book the dream match between The Brahma Bull and Roman Reigns at both WrestleMania 39 and WrestleMania XL. However, the match did not come to fruition either time. Many fans speculated about the result of the match if it were to happen, especially with the title on the line.

On the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Brian Gewirtz revealed several behind-the-scenes details about the match. He met up with Nick Khan and Triple H in January 2024 regarding The Great One’s return. The former WWE Head Writer was the one who proposed the match once again, with The People’s Champion going over.

Triple H immediately shot down the idea. He later found out that Roman Reigns was also against the idea of his cousin winning the WWE Undisputed Title. The Stamford-based promotion knew that the Hollywood superstar would go on a hiatus after WrestleMania XL. This would once again leave the company with only one full-time world title in the form of the World Heavyweight Championship.
