Dwayne Johnson
The wrestler turned Hollywood actor Dwayne Johnson is currently one of the most busiest human beings on the entire earth due to his endless commitment lists of various projects. Producers lock him well in advance for any endorsements and movies they want to cast in Johnson into. The 50 year old Jumanji star recently turned down an offer to host The Emmy Awards due to be held on September 12 of this year.
Johnson recently spoke with ET’s Rachel Smith regarding the same where he also revealed the ultimately obvious reason behind not being able to make it for The Emmys stating his busy schedule. He said it’s a great honour that they approached me for the event but unfortunately due to prior commitments, he’s not gonna make it to the show.
“It was just schedule. I was really, truly honored when they came to me and asked, but it was just a scheduling thing. That’s all. That’s really what it comes down to.”
It seemed quite obvious the moment Dwayne turned down the offer to host Emmys that his utterly packed timetable won’t allow him to do anything else than focusing on the current projects. Johnson is currently preparing for his comedy show which is set to get shot this fall. Also, he have two major releases pending one of them being DC League of Super Pets later this month and Black Adam which will be served in theaters come this October.
Over the years, Dwayne Johnson have given a ton of multi-million grossing films the top of which includes Hobbs and Shaw at $758 Million, Fast & Furious 6 at $788 Million, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle grossing 962 Million, The Fate of the Furious crossing the 1 billion mark at 1.2 and finally the highest grossing film being Furious 7 at $1.5 Billions.

Is Dwayne Johnson coming back to WWE in 2023 ?
Every year , Dwayne Johnson gets rumoured for a possible appearance at The Showcase of the Immortals but that hasn’t happened since Mania of 2016 in Dallas. With next year’s Wrestlemania scheduled in Los Angeles with a Hollywood theme being added with that, the reports suggest this could be the best possible chance we can see Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in a match for the last time ever.
The most obvious opponent for The Great One upon his return will surely be his cousin Roman Reigns which will make the “Mother of all Dream Battles”. Everything depends upon his busy Hollywood schedule as to whether we will finally see The Rock compete in a WWE ring and can finally end that dry patch for good.
