Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is a name that echoes through the hallowed halls of professional wrestling history. He’s a bona fide legend, and his epic journey from the squared circle to the silver screen is nothing short of remarkable. Today, he’s not just an A-list actor; he’s one of the highest-paid actors in the glitzy realm of Hollywood. With a fan following the size of Mount Everest, it’s no wonder that whispers of him running for President of the United States have been circulating.
Now, let’s rewind to 2021. A survey dropped a bombshell, revealing that a whopping 46% of voters would eagerly cast their ballots for Dwayne Johnson to become POTUS. And you know what? The Rock himself even chimed in, saying it would be a downright honor to occupy the highest office in the land.
But here’s where things get spicy. The Rock didn’t just have a fan base; he had political parties knocking on his door, wooing him for a US Presidential run. However, not everyone is convinced that this would be a slam dunk for him.
Enter Kurt Angle, the Olympic gold medalist and former WWE superstar. Kurt weighed in on The Rock’s potential presidential aspirations, and his take is a real eyebrow-raiser. He thinks The Rock might be caught between a rock and a hard place (pun intended).
“Yeah, I feel badly for him. Even if he did run for office, what side is he going to do? He’s screwed either way… Run independent and come up with your own concepts.”
To make matters even more intriguing, The Rock found himself in the political ring even before officially entering politics. An ex-WWE star called him out for backing Joe Biden, setting off an unhinged rant that got the internet buzzing.
So, here’s the cliffhanger, folks: will The Rock ever make a legitimate run for the presidency? Only time will tell if this Hollywood powerhouse decides to throw his hat into the political ring and, as Kurt Angle suggests, potentially face some rocky terrain along the way. Stay tuned for the next electrifying chapter in The Rock’s journey!
