The Rock on his future with WWE:
“Any opportunity I can to go back and not only make appearances, but help to expand the company, whether domestically or globally, I always go back. It’s also part of my obligation that I happily do.”
The Rock on joining the TKO Board of Directors:
“I came along in the 90s and wrestled for Vince into the 2000s, so there’s some real connective tissue that goes back generations, and for that I will forever be grateful, because it provided me a platform and a way to express myself in ways that nothing else would allow, other than actingSo the opportunity for me to become a director, sit on the board, take that position, is just another way that I could help the company grow.”
