The Wrestle Is History: The Rock - Part 1 (Debut - to Wrestlemania 15)
🎙 The Wrestle Is History – Episode 1: THE ROCK (Part 1)
In the debut episode of our deep-dive wrestling history series, we kick things off with one of the biggest names in the game: The Rock.
From the blue-chipper debut of Rocky Maivia, to the boos, the backlash, and the eventual rise of the Nation’s most electrifying member — we unpack the early years of Dwayne Johnson’s WWE journey.
We cover:
The rocky (pun intended) start
His heel turn and alliance with the Nation of Domination
The evolution of the character that changed wrestling forever
Behind-the-scenes stories, promos, feuds, and moments that mattered
His first WrestleMania match vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin – the beginning of a legendary rivalry
Whether you lived through it or you’re discovering it now — this is where The Rock’s legend truly begins.
