8 Wrestlers Who Left WWE & Got JACKED
8. The Rock
His inclusion in this list isn't to imply that 'The People's Champ' has ever been out of shape in any way. The Rock's physical prowess has always been in peak condition, from his days in the Nation Of Domination all the way to his prime years as the number one attraction in the WWE. Even with this caveat, there's no denying that since he went to Hollywood, Dwayne Johnson has evolved into a hulked-up mass of a man.
The Rock's most recent actual run as WWE's 'Final Boss' saw him embody that nickname. Beefier than ever before, Rocky looked more physically imposing than he had in the past during his run leading up to WrestleMania 40. It added a certain level of violence and menace to his increasingly evil actions, the highlight of which came when annihilating Cody Rhodes in the rain outside company production trucks.
This drastic change of body type worked, as it meant that he didn't ever feel like a relic of the past when in a program with Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and the 'American Nightmare'. When Rock earned the pin to set up the 'Bloodline Rules' match between his cousin and Cody on 'Mania 40's second night, that made perfect sense.
Man was built like a proverbial brick s***house.
