The Rock Receives $9 Million in Shares from TKO after WWE WrestleMania Weekend
[ad_1]
The Final Boss scored big with a hefty payday.
In a recent SEC Filing, TKO gifted The Rock 96,558 shares of company stock following his appearances at WWE WrestleMania XL. With each share valued at $97.50, The Rock’s payout tallied up to a whopping $9,414,405.
It’s unclear whether this windfall is payment for his contributions to WWE throughout the year or a bonus for his new role on the TKO board. The Rock hinted on a recent episode of Raw that he will be taking some time off, but not before making it known to the Undisputed Universal Champion, Cody Rhodes, that he will be coming for him upon his return.
Rumors are swirling that The Rock is gearing up to start filming his latest project, The Smashing Machine, a movie centered on MMA icon Mark Kerr, which is set to be produced by the renowned A24 studio.
