Today, the world knows Dwayne Johnson as one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood. However, WWE fans still recall Johnson by his ring name ‘The Rock’. In the late 90s, The Rock was introduced in the WWE to the world and the rest is history. But there was a time in the life of The Rock when he had no money or work to survive.
Almost everyone who loves pro wrestling knows The Rock and his journey to WWE, or his life before becoming famous. But, even in the toughest times of his life, Dwayne Johnson was assured of his success. In a 1999 interview after being famous, The Rock proclaimed that he always knew he will thrive in pro wrestling.

In the interview hosted by Michael Landsberg, Dwayne Johnson clarified that he is a little surprised by how much he is recognized all over America in a short time. But, the Rock always knew that his time will come.

To have the kind of success Dwayne Johnson has achieved, one has to be confident even when things are not working out. Even after getting kicked off from the Canadian Football Team Calgary Stampeders, he never gave up. With only $7 in his pocket, Rock went on to try pro wrestling. Dwayne’s father, known by his ring name ‘Rocky’, had also worked for WWE. But the family’s legacy of wrestling never helped Rock on the money part.
