The story

From Rocky Maivia to the People’s Champion

Before Hollywood, there was the ring. Dwayne Johnson is a third-generation wrestler, the grandson of High Chief Peter Maivia and the son of Rocky Johnson. Cut from a Canadian football team with seven dollars to his name, then booed out of arenas in his first year, he reinvented himself as The Rock and became one of the biggest stars wrestling has produced.
