In the latest Form 10-K filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission it was revealed that WWE handed over many trademarks to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as part of his new deal with the company.
Apart from getting full ownership of The Rock, WWE also gave Dwayne Johnson the intellectual property rights to Rocky Maivia, Team Corporate, Rock Nation, The Nation, Roody Poo, Candy Ass, Jabroni, If you smell what The Rock is cooking, The Samoan Sensation, The Blue Chipper, The Brahma Bull, The People’s Champion, The Great One, Know Your Role and Shut Your Mouth, Team Bring It, The Rock Just Bring It, The People’s Elbow, Rock Bottom, Finally, The Rock has come back to…, It doesn’t matter what…, Blue Hell, The millions… (and millions), Rockpocalypse, Project Rock and The most electrifying man in sports and entertainment.
That is in addition to the $30 million in stock, where he will receive 50% of it this year and the other 50% in 2025.
