24 Sep The Rock Hints at Possibility of Playing for Recently Purchased XFL In Entertainment SportsBy Ballerz Earlier this year, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson announced that he purchased the XFL in a $15 million deal with RedBird Capital, and he spoke about the possibility of playing in the league in an Instagram post. View this post on Instagram Sweatin’ in paradise with my new XFL belt and extra motivation. XFL is much more than a big business acquisition – it represents an idea. The idea of opportunity. As an owner of the XFL, that’s my priority – create opportunities for players to live out their dreams, feed their families and ball out – XFL style. I was a good football player with great “upper body violence” as my coach, Ed Orgeron loved to call it 😈💪🏾, so maybe I’ll be the first owner in pro football history to actually suit up and play in the game. No doubt, I’ll get my ass whupped 🤣but at least I’m goin’ out on my shield – XFL style🛡 What a wild, unpredictable journey life can be and I got nothing but excitement and gratitude to create these opportunities for other players and people 🙏🏾 @danygarciaco and ownership let’s roll. #fortheloveoffootball #upperbodyviolence #owner #XFL A post shared by therock (@therock) on Sep 22, 2020 at 8:07am PDT Leave a Reply Cancel replyCommentName * Email * Website Δ Post navigation Previous Previous post: Loon Shares Photos of His Reunion with Diddy: The Love Cannot Be DeniedNext Next post: Wells Fargo CEO Says There’s a ‘Limited Pool of Black Talent to Recruit From’
