After a successful college football career at the University of Miami, Johnson followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather by joining the world of pro wrestling. He quickly rose to fame and became one of the WWE’s biggest stars, eventually branching out into a blockbuster film career. Johnson was last regularly a part of the WWE in 2004 but has made sporadic appearances in the years since, including a showdown at 2013’s Wrestlemania with fellow wrestler-turned-actor John Cena.
