The Rock is fulfilling his football dreams with the XFL

For those who do not know, The Rock has always wanted to be in the NFL. He even played football in college, but didn’t make it to the big leagues.

As a result, he moved to pro-wrestling and there, he found fame and the money. However, there was always a vacuum in his heart, which only football could fill.

Now, The Rock couldn’t be in the NFL after years of being a pro-wrestler and now, an actor. Nevertheless, he found a way to be a part of the game and decided to launch his own league with a team of individuals who share the same vision as him.

But, this doesn’t mean he’s not working with the NFL at all. The XFL actually collaborated with the NFL to launch the platform in 2023 to guide the future generation of football players.

It’s amazing when the plans work out, and for The Rock it’s happening now!
