The big return of Dwayne Johnson to the WWE and then claiming the new gimmick The Final Boss as he turned heel, the big bad of WWE changed almost everything. On the other spectrum of the story, Cody Rhodes was on the rise— his story was being written as the making of a hero and his Royal Rumble win changed the dynamics of the narrative in WWE.

The original plan for The Rock to get into the feud for the Universal Title against the then champion and his cousin Roman Reigns seemed kind of a dream match. However, Rhodes was in the picture as well, and The Rock was heavily criticized by fans for snatching the match from the Royal Rumble winner. The Rock’s head writer, Brian Gewirtz revealed that the original plan for Rhodes at WrestleMania 40 would have been hated by fans.

Everyone knows the mongoose is one of nature’s slipperiest animals. Not only can they run at 20 mph, but they’re also resistant to snake venom! If honey badgers and mongooses ever teamed up, we’d be in big trouble. Why all this talk about fast-moving mammals? One of Hollywood’s most devious action stars, Liam Neeson, will star in a cross-country car chase movie, Mongoose, for Amazon. See, it all makes sense.
Mongoose quietly made the rounds at Cannes, with Amazon Prime Video pre-purchasing most of the international rights in a deal nearing $20M.According to Deadline‘s exclusive report, Liam Neeson plays Ryan “Fang” Flanagan in Mongoose, “a war hero who, accused of a crime he didn’t commit and with nothing to lose, leads police on an epic televised cross-country car chase, helped by members of his former Special Forces Army battalion and closely monitored by a...

Like many ageing action stars before him, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has come to a point in his career where he has to make a decision.
He either continues starring in increasingly unsuccessful action flicks (even some of the genre's biggest icons found themselves relegated to direct-to-dvd fare later in their careers) or reinvents himself. After a few failed endeavours - including an attempted Dceu takeover with 2022's Black Adam - Johnson has gone with the latter option.
That's so far included a WWE return, a public reconciliation with Fast & Furious star Vin Diesel, and signing up to star in A24 drama The Smashing Machine.
Directed by Benny Safdie and co-starring his Jungle Cruise screen partner Emily Blunt, the movie marks a major departure for Johnson and should be a far more serious role which, if things go to plan, could see him vying for awards next year.
