The Final Boss breaks character.
The dust has now settled on WWE’s epic WrestleMania weekend, and one of the big names from the event has ridden off into the sunset following his in-ring comeback in Philadelphia.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson headlined night one of WWE’s biggest events of the year, teaming up with cousin Roman Reigns to defeat Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins before having a major part in the main event of Sunday’s show.
He is now back working on his latest movie projects, but took to Instagram to praise the three men he stepped in the ring with – giving a special nod to Rollins for his work over the two nights.
Breaking his ‘Final Boss’ character, The Rock wrote: “Congratulations to Cody Rhodes, congratulations to my cousin Roman Reigns on an incredible three-and-a-half-year run, maybe even four years, just incredible, iconic, and historic.
“I’m very proud of you, uso. Also congratulations to the real MVP of the entire WrestleMania weekend, Seth Rollins. What an honor it was to share the ring with you three. What an honor it was for us to break records.
“And now my sights are set on the next WrestleMania. But that’s down the road.”
