WWE Bio

He’s been dubbed The Great One, The People’s Champion and The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment, but mere words fail to capture the essence of the most charismatic Superstar of all time. Although the catchphrase “boots to asses” comes awfully close. The first third-generation Superstar in WWE history, the man born Dwayne Johnson was destined for sports-entertainment immortality since birth, but his rise to the status of a pop culture icon was harder to predict. In the time since he made his debut as a grinning good guy at the 1996 Survivor Series, The Brahma Bull has won seven WWE Championships, headlined WrestleMania, hosted “Saturday Night Live,” written a New York Times bestselling autobiography and starred in films like “Fast Five” and “The Game Plan,” which have grossed literally billions of dollars. And, the amazing thing is, he’s just getting started. Son of WWE Hall of Famer Rocky Johnson, the University of Miami football standout showed promise early when he won the Intercontinental Championship within months of first setting foot in the ring. From there, The Rock’s momentum never slowed as he laid the smackdown on “Attitude Era” rivals like “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Triple H while spouting off endless catchphrases that immediately became part of national conversation. With one eyebrow cocked, The People’s Champion would warn jabronis to “Know your role and shut your mouth” or “Just bring it!” before delivering his devastating finishing maneuver, The Rock Bottom, on the way to victory. The 6-foot-5 competitor was soon fielding offers to star in films like “The Scorpion King” and “Gridiron Gang” thanks to the endless charisma and sex appeal he exuded in the squared circle. Now a Hollywood leading man, The Rock left WWE to pursue his acting career, only to return to the ring against John Cena in the main event of WrestleMania XXVIII—and prove to WWE’s newest generation of fans that he truly is The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment. The Rock returned again at Raw’s historic 1,000th episode, where he announced that he will face whoever is the WWE Champion at Royal Rumble for the WWE Title in January 2013!

Breakdown

The Rock is—as expected—very good with a 93 Overall rating. He’s got some big grapples to do damage with. Do not listen to the haters! Taunt, Taunt Taunt! He’s got 100 Charisma, so if you don’t taunt, it’s like Sin Cara not diving. The Rock takes a bit of time in his animation so Hammer Throw your opponent out of the ring or into a corner and perform your Taunt. For some pretty interesting strikes, lead with a head punch and get into a Wrist Lock Chain Grapple (left stick right and grapple). Tap grapple again to unleash a vicious clothesline that sends your opponent flipping to the mat. It’s a great lead in to the People’s Elbow Finisher.
