Wrestling veteran says the world needs a "100 more" The Rocks (Exclusive)
ECE legend Joel Gertner is a big fan of The Rock, praising the WWE Hall of Famer for his tremendous success inside and outside the squared circle.
The Brahma Bull is one of the most well-recognized faces in professional wrestling. He transcended boundaries to become one of the biggest all-around entertainers in the world.
From his exploits inside the ring during the Attitude Era to his unending list of blockbuster hits to multiple businesses, The Rock has conquered whichever field he has stepped into.
Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter, Joel Gertner stated that the WWE legend is an easily recognizable figure among people, regardless of whether they have ever watched WWE. The ECW veteran also praised him for being a phenomenal actor who could nail anything, be it action, comedy, or drama.
"Again the case of, you talk to people who don't watch wrestling, everyone knows The Rock. A movie star, TV star, or perhaps a future politician. There's just nothing that needs to be said about him. Even within the movies, that one specific genre of movies he does, he can do everything in that. He can do action, comedy, drama, love interest, and a superhero. He's just a chameleon," said Joel Gertner. [2:26 - 3:01]

"He's multi-faceted, he's so well-spoken, he's so diverse, he's so charismatic and just a great person and humble as well. And just you know, professional wrestling and the greater world itself, needs a 100 more The Rocks," added Gertner. [3:02 - 3:19]
