    Dwayne Douglas Johnson (born May 2, 1972), also known by his ring name The Rock, is an
    American actor, producer, and professional wrestler who holds both American and
    Canadian citizenship.
    Currently signed to WWE on a part-time contract, Johnson was a college football player for
    the University of Miami, where he won a national championship on the 1991 Miami Hurricanes
    football team. He later played for the Calgary Stampeders in the Canadian Football League, and was
    cut two months into the 1995 season. This led him to become a professional wrestler like his
    grandfather, Peter Maivia, and his father, Rocky Johnson (from whom he also inherited his Canadian
    citizenship).[7]
    Johnson gained mainstream fame in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF/WWE) from 1996 to
    2004 as a major figure in the company's Attitude Era, and was the first third-generation wrestler in
    the company's history. He returned to wrestling part-time for WWE from 2011 to 2013 and continues
    to make sporadic non-wrestling appearances for the company. Johnson has 17 championship reigns
    in WWE, including 10 as a world champion, winning the WWF/WWE Championship eight
    times (seventh reign was as WWE Undisputed Champion) and the WCW/World
    Championship twice. He won the WWF Intercontinental Championshiptwice and the WWF Tag Team
    Championship five times. Johnson is the sixth Triple Crown Champion in WWE history, and won

    the 2000 Royal Rumble. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all
    time.[8]
    Johnson's autobiography The Rock Says..., co-written with Joe Layden, was published in 2000. It
    debuted at No. 1 on The New York Times Best Seller list, spent 20 weeks on The New York Times
    bestseller list and sold 720,000 copies in hardcover alone. [9][10]Johnson's first leading film role was
    in The Scorpion King in 2002. For this role, he was paid US $5.5 million, a world record for an actor
    in his first starring role.[11] He has since appeared in various films, and become known for his ability to
    reinvigorate film franchises. Perhaps his greatest success in his acting career can be sourced to his
    role as Luke Hobbs in The Fast and the Furiousfranchise. He hosted and produced The Hero,
    a reality competition series; and has since continued to produce TV series and films through his
    production company Seven Bucks Productions, each of which he also stars in. Forbes listed
    Johnson No. 25 in the Top 100 Most Powerful Celebrities in 2013. [12] He is the world's highest-paid
    actor of 2016.[13] Time named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2016. [14] In
    2015, Muscle & Fitness named Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as their "Man of the Century." [15]
