Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is featured in a lengthy Variety piece and spoke about returning at WWE. "I'm back for no other reason than to entertain the fans that had been so good to me over the years," Johnson said. "It's not about the dollar. I've been very fortunate. When you go out there and you perform, it becomes really magical. So to be able to go back and create the biggest match of all time for them means the world to me. I took the biggest risk of my life by leaving WWE when I was on top. To be able to go back means the world to me."

Rock also spoke about his early acting career. "I didn't have a lot of choices when I first started acting," he said. "I was grateful for the projects that were coming in, but they were all action. I was hoping I could do these action movies and do well enough where I could get more opportunities (in other genres). I knew doing action would get old for me."

Powell's POV: It's a good feature with quotes from Rock's ex-wife and current business partner Dany Garcia, who spoke about Johnson dropping "The Rock" name and bringing it back. "It's a nickname he can't get away from," she said. "It's a great nickname he wanted to embrace."
