The Rock works the jabroni marks into a shoot by putting over Joe Biden while cutting a promo
- Thread starter ElectricBlanketFire
- Start date
Non wrestling fans love The Rock to a scary degree.
I think this will actually get a bit of traction and maybe pull some younger voters.
Not a lot but elections are won by not a lot.

Dude worked his arse off to get out of the shadow of the WWE and it worked. He's a big enough name now that major franchises like Fast and Furious will bring him in to bail them out and he's getting into the superhero genre too. I know it sounds like a weird thing to say but I'm proud of him.
Don't discount the wight of these things among certain people. Taylor Swift posted something political on her IG for the first time in 2018 and there was a large spike - 100k or so increase - in young registrations in the next 24 hours alone.
So many delicious Trump supporting tears in that twitter thread.
Yep, especially when him and his family all caught covid but they all recovered. I don't know what's his political stance prior to covid, but nothing like having a brush with death to make you reconsider a few things.
Yeah. because like it's insane to think they support him through that
He recently announced that his family caught it but they recovered. He looked pretty rough in the video so I can imagine that might have swayed him to a more direct response to the election.
My favorites are all of the ones whining that celebrities should stay out of politics
Which ex-wrestlers are voting for Trump? I don't see John Cena or Batista being the Republican types...
I feel like this is the first time I've heard him called by that nickname.
Never would I have imagined when I met the Rock at an autograph signing at the mall when I was a teenager that someday I would be cheering on his critical presidential endorsement over President Donald Trump.
That's on you for not believing that "crazy homeless man" who accosted you after the event. He WAS a time traveler.
Go follow Batista on Twitter - he has been rampaging against Trump for a LONG time.
Okay so I wanna express what I'm about to say without sounding like I'm challenging you but I do feel strongly about this so bear with me.
I've just seen a lot of bad (my evaluation) stuff about and from him. I want to believe he's a naïve optimist but underestimating the
intelligence and motives of a third generation carnie is what got us Vince McMahon. All I'll say is this, people do grow up and out
of habits and personalities. The past is written, the future is not, yadda yadda yadda.
But Johnson is a political animal and expert opportunist, right or wrong, that's what got him to the dance.
I believe this endorsement is largely dispassionate. Biden wins, hooray. But what if trump wins? We all know he'll destroy this country.
Johnson wants to be able to say "I didn't want to get into politics but now..." and the irony is the non marks fall for it.
I think he's a very smart person who will run for Governor soon. But I don't like him.
LOL I never would've expected Nash of all people to be anything but a typical Republican.
This is one of the more surprising endorsements I've seen in a while. He probably has the greatest mass market appeal of any working actor today and making any sort of political statement besides platitudes is practically verboten.
That shirt makes it look like his body is put together like those old rubberband GIJoe toys lol.
His big passions in life were hip hop and basketball.
I think it's another big case for exposure therapy cause he's never flipped.
OP
OP
You should follow him on Twitter. Batista HATES Trump.
Not sure about Cena but he's come out in support of progressive issues in the past.
Off the top of my head, I know that CM Punk, Mick Foley and Daniel Bryan won't be voting for Trump either.
I don't like this, I don't like that two future probable world leaders need to sit down with The Rock as a barometer to earn his respect and pass that along through twitter to move the needle in who is best to lead the country. I dunno.
The past few years people lost their businesses or can't sell their crops overseas or can't be with their spouses due to deportation. Some have been on video still professing support for Trump.
