Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson remains one of the most popular pro wrestlers to have ever stepped foot inside the squared circle. He was a true icon in WWE and his stock only rose after The Rock made his way to Hollywood, where he is now the highest-paid actor in the industry.

However, The Rock certainly did not have the best of starts in WWE as his Rocky Maivia character was largely panned by fans and eventually led to the infamous ”Die Rocky die” chants.

The Rock has worked with several legendary pro wrestlers in WWE and that includes Kurt Angle, with whom he has had numerous matches and excellent feuds.

While speaking on  The Kurt Angle Show‘, Kurt Angle talked about his experience working with The Rock. Angle gave him huge props for his innovative ideas and being an absolute joy to work with.

You know what, what’s so great about him [The Rock] is he comes up with so many great innovative ideas. He’s his mind’s always working. You know, you could tell now to this day, how creative he is what he’s able to do with his businesses and his acting. He’s just a really creative guy and I really enjoyed working.”

Kurt Angle has been enjoying his life in retirement after WrestleMania 35. We certainly wonder if he will make his return to pro wrestling one way or the other.
