The Rock is one of the greatest stars in pro wrestling history. He has had a legendary pro wrestling career in WWE. His incredible journey in WWE started 26 years back when he had his debut match inside the iconic Madison Square Garden. It happened in 1996 when he was part of a traditional Survivor Series tag team match that saw him compete alongside Jake Roberts, The Stalker Barry Windham, and Marc Mero.
The Rock’s team picked up the victory over the team of Jerry Lawler, Hunter Hearst-Helmsley, Goldust, and Crush. He would become one of the biggest names in the history of the wrestling business.
‘The Great One’ recalled his debut and took to his Twitter account and responded to the list of accolades in WWE:

The Rock is slated to make his return to the company soon to set up a match against Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. Prior to Crown Jewel event, Sikoa spoke to Republic World and the outlet asked him for his thoughts on Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson saying he’s the ‘head of the table’. Solo said Johnson is not in WWE at the moment so he does not know what ‘table’ he’s referring to, but Roman Reigns is the head of the table he’s at:
“He is not here in WWE so I don’t know what table he is talking about, there are other tables in the family. I don’t know if he got a pick specifically on which table he is talking about. I know Roman is head of our table, that’s the table I said. But you know when the time presents itself man, rock and roll, that’ll be something cool to see down the road.”
