Well, folks, we’ve got ourselves a real humdinger of a story! TKO, WWE’s parent company, just made The Rock a whole lot richer with a massive stock grant! Talk about hitting the jackpot, am I right?
According to the financial wizards over at “WrestleNomics,” The Rock is now the proud owner of a mind-boggling 96,558 shares of TKO stock, valued at a jaw-dropping $9.41 million. Now, that’s what I call a knockout blow in the world of finance!
But hold onto your hats, folks, because this windfall is just the tip of the iceberg! It seems The Rock’s electrifying appearance at WrestleMania 40, where he lit up the ring alongside Roman Reigns, was just the beginning of his financial empire.
According to the SEC filing, The Rock’s services rendered during WrestleMania were likely a key component of his contract. From body slams to stock trades, The Rock is proving he’s a man of many talents!
And let’s not forget, folks, The Rock isn’t just a wrestling icon; he’s a bona fide mogul in the making! Joining TKO’s Board of Directors earlier this year and securing trademarks for his legendary monikers, The Rock is leaving his mark on the business world.
Now, while he may be taking a breather from the WWE spotlight for now, The People’s Champion has assured fans that he’ll be back in the ring before you can say “Rock Bottom!” Could a showdown with “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes be on the cards? Only time will tell!
