At last, he had to turn his way towards wrestling, an industry where his predecessors have been involved. He began wrestling in 1996. His WWE career in the initial days wasn’t a blockbuster. His gimmick of Rocky Maivia wasn’t very much liked by the WWE Universe. He suffered a great setback at that time. 

Mark Henry revealed that at that time, Dwayne was so frustrated with his career and was about to quit wrestling forever. But it was in his destiny to reach the pinnacle of success. A major change in the gimmick took place and Rocky Maivia turned into The Rock.

The change in the gimmick brought life back into Dwayne Johnson. He had a great boost to his career and went on to establish himself as a 10 time world champion. He also has to his name, multiple then, pay per view events.

His Hollywood career showed a massive growth and thus he is currently one of the highest paid actors in the world. He is also the co-owner of XFL and is into a lot of social work and promotions. He has also entered into a partnership with UFC. 

According to the project named ‘Project Rock,’ the players would have an official athletic wear. The deal caused massive promotion for both the UFC as well as The Rock but the players didn’t have much of a role in the same.

The players do not receive any sponsorship and recently, UFC star Terrance McKinney spoke about the issue. The star took to twitter to publicly tell The Rock that they need the love and support which he shows to everyone that he gives.
