Born on 2nd May 1972, Dwayne Douglas Johnson is an actor and partially retired professional wrestler. He is also extremely tall and muscular. His height is 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 meters) tall and his weight is 260 pounds (118 kgs). Johnson is a hard worker and his net worth is $165-$220 million.
Not only does he act and occasionally wrestle, but he also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Criminology and Physiology. He also used to play American football and played for the Miami Hurricanes when he was in college until an injury ended his football career. When he used to wrestle, he was also very famous and known by a few names in the ring, such as Rocky Maivia and Flex Kavana. The most famous name that has stuck with him throughout his career is The Rock.
His success in wrestling comes as no surprise since his grandfather and father (Rocky Johnson) were both wrestlers – the latter also trained him. He was named the 1st 3rd-Generation wrestler of all time by the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). He has won the World Heavyweight Championship two times and has also won the World Championship eight times.
Johnson is part Samoan; his grandfather, Peter Maivia, was a Samoan High Chief. He also belongs to a family famous for being professional wrestlers called The Anoaʻi family, although his relationship with them has no blood ties.
