Speaking on the latest episode of his podcast, ‘Jim Cornette’s Drive Thru‘, Cornette confessed that the former WWE champion is “smart” and he will never make such a deal.
He also added that it doesn’t matter how rich The Rock gets, but he will never put billions of his hard-earned dollars into any wrestling promotion let alone WWE.
“Some people were saying, ‘Is The Rock going to buy WWE?’ I don’t care how rich a movie star he is, he ain’t putting $5 billion, all or part of his dollars, into a wrestling promotion – any wrestling promotion, I wouldn’t think. He’s smart enough not to do that,” Cornette confessed.
The Rock recently claimed that Nick Khan is his “lifelong friend”
The reason why people speculate on The Rock buying the WWE from McMahon in the future is that The Great One recently uploaded a photo of him having a meal with WWE President Nick Khan and her sister.
In the Instagram post, The Rock reflected on the close relationship he shares with Nick Khan and her sister Nahnatchka Khan.
