Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was appointed to the TKO Board of Directors this past week, and his former on-screen rival Paul “Triple H” Levesque couldn’t be happier about the development.
During the WWE Royal Rumble 2024 post-show media scrum, Triple H explained how wonderful it is to have The Rock in the TKO boardroom.
You can check out some highlights from the press conference below:
On The Rock joining the TKO board: “An amazing opportunity for us to have the biggest celebrity, the biggest star in the world, the biggest box office attraction in the world, to be a part of that board, and help us. He’s an expert on branding, on marketing, all those things, so to help with that.”
On being able to talk about the WWE product with The Rock in a language that they both understand: “But what I love about it, is he’s also a guy that, while on a board at an extremely high level and communicate with them, I can have shorthand with him about what WWE needs. And for people that sometimes don’t understand what the product is, that is such a blessing to be able to call him and just say, in our language, here’s what I’m feeling, here’s the way I want to go, and can you help me with that, and that’s really what they’re there for, to help us with that and business. It’s amazing to have him doing that, it’s a huge opportunity for us.”
