By no stretch of the imagination was Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson the greatest American football player that has ever lived. He was a capable performer in his role for the Miami Hurricanes, but beyond that, he was never really destined to reach the lofty heights of the National Football League.

Still, you can’t ignore the fact that the man played a helping hand in guiding the Hurricanes to a College National Championship prior to his many world title reigns in World Wrestling Entertainment.

Johnson is and was a born champion, and for years on end, whether it be in football, wrestling or Hollywood, he has always managed to sniff out success.
