The Corporation: Where are they now?

#3 The Rock

Survivor Series 1998 is still bitter in my mouth. I remember watching and thinking that Mankind was a shoe-in for his first WWF Championship but wanting The Rock to win because of his journey through the tournament.

When he got the win because The Corporation screwed over Mankind, I was furious. It made The Rock an instant heel. To give you some context, The Rock had been a Roman Reigns type character, booed out of buildings all over the country. He then won the fans over, only for the WWF to shove it back in their face again.

It was the perfect heel move.

The Rock enjoyed his time in The Corporation, trading the Championship with Mankind until losing it to The RattleSnake, Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania XV (for one of the worst WrestleManias ever, a lot happened huh?).

When he failed to win it back at Backlash: In Your House, he was kicked out of the faction and he went out on his own, fully established as a main event star and draw for the WWF. He won the crowd back relatively quickly as his heel persona had failed to be as effective as it once was due to how charismatic The Rock was on the mic.

Again, just like Triple H, The Rock went on to be extremely successful in the WWE, capturing many more championships and accolades. To go through them all would take all night so let’s move onto his new career: acting.

The Rock is easily one of the most successful actors of all time. Not one person would have predicted this from the wrestler with a bit-part in The Scorpion King. A main cast member of the Fast And Furious, he topped this list for highest paid actor in 2016.

The Rock is currently working on a spin-off based on his character Hobbs, before the release of Fast 9.
