Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a cultural icon whose career has gone way beyond professional wrestling. Within the squared circle, however, he established himself as one of the most electrifying performers in WWE history.

Even when he has not competed at The Grandest Stage of Them All, The Great One has made quite a few appearances on the event as a special guest for the fans.
