The Rock signs major deal outside WWE - Reports

The Rock reportedly signed a major deal outside WWE. This multi-year deal also involves his production company, Seven Bucks Productions.

The Great One is one of the biggest stars in the world. He made a huge name for himself in pro wrestling and continued to maintain and grow his brand when he transitioned to acting. Since then, he has been involved in some major projects and movie franchises.

During his acting career, the former WWE Champion has acted in several major Disney movies, such as Moana and The Jungle Cruise. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Dwayne Johnson's production house, Seven Bucks Productions, has signed a multi-year first-look deal with Disney that will see them "develop films for theatrical and streaming platforms," with the Hollywood megastar starring in the projects.

This deal will enable Seven Bucks Productions to collaborate across Disney divisions.

The Final Boss will reprise his role as Maui in the animated Moana 2 and will also star in the live-action Moana film.

Cody Rhodes opens up about the gift he received from The Rock after WrestleMania 40

The Rock was involved in the WrestleMania 40 storyline with Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. After The Great One wasn't able to help his cousin retain his title at 'Mania, he showed up the next night on RAW and confronted Cody. He told The American Nightmare that he was going away for a while but would come back looking for him. He also handed a gift to Rhodes.

During an interview with Esquire, Cody opened up about the gift he received from The Brahma Bull.

"Well. So, it’s highly suspected that what The Rock put back in my hand the day after WrestleMania [there was a further 'heated exchange' between the pair on TV the following night] was the watch I had given him – the WrestleMania XL commemorative watch with the logo on and the custom dial, and for him a few extra links, because he's got a big boy wrist. And that return of said item," he said.

It remains to be seen whether The Great One will return to the WWE anytime soon, given his current project pipeline.
