But after that incident, he vowed to himself that one day he's going to have everything in the world which he currently has. Even though he had a godfather in this business (his dad Rocky Johnson) he worked up his way through to reach the highest possibility of a wrestler career. Guess that's why he's recognized as the most electrifying men in the sports-entertainment living on the planet earth.
