The Rock on WWE’s Sale

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson appeared on CNBC on Tuesday and was asked to comment on the news of WWE’s attempt at a sale. Per reports, the company is looking to sell by mid-2023. 

“Well, I can tell you this, it’s an exciting brand, it’s a brand that I’ve been fortunate enough to have tremendous success in over the decades and also, for your viewers here in the business world who may not know, the lineage goes way back, multi-generational with the WWE,” Johnson said. “My grandfather wrestled for Vince McMahon Sr. in the 70s, my dad wrestled for Vince McMahon in the 80s and then I came along with my bad haircut and fanny pack and I continued to wrestle for Vince too so we’ve seen tremendous success over the years. I think it’s a very attractive company, I’m excited and I wish Vince and that company all the best.”
