In today’s NY Post, The Rock is discussed on Page Six with Richard Johnson.
In the short piece, The Rock was touted as “Hollywood’s next big action hero” and went on to have quotes by the Rock:
“Men find an action hero believable if they say, ‘Wow, I believe this guy can really kick some [bleeping] ass, mine included,’ ” the former pro wrestler tells Playboy. “I loved ‘Spider-Man,’ but I’m not too sure Tobey Maguire could kick a lot of people’s asses.”
The Rock also talked about sportsmanship and the fans, in particular as it pertains to the NBA’s Ron Artest, who is undergoing a yearlong suspension for going into the stands to confront beligernent fans.
You cannot go into the stands after fans. It is non-negotiable. I was so hated that when I went into the ring I was bombarded with batteries, cans, you name it. Once, fighting my way through the crowd, I got cut with a knife or an X-Acto blade. I’ve got a four-inch scar on my arm. I also got sliced on my back. I’ve got a cut on the back of my head.”
