NFL resumed matches after a long period of absence due to the pandemic. There were a lot of different additions to the stadium. One memorable addition was the replacement of actual fans with cardboard cutouts. Two particular cutouts caught the eye of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

On two seats, a cutout of Johnson as The Rock was seen sitting next to the same of Elizabeth II, the Queen of England! The wind had blown The Rock towards the Queen, making it appear as if he was lying on her shoulder.

The brainchild of McMahon could never be truly fulfilled after two efforts due. However, Johnson aims at making the dream a reality. He has already chalked up a strategy.
