Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has revealed his Premier League team is the 'Pride of Cheshire' - despite the club not being based there. The Rock, known for his successful career in Hollywood and wrestling, made the revelation during a press junket promoting his upcoming film, Black Adam. When asked which English side he followed, The Rock sheepishly replied, 'Yeah... You know the one, the Pride of Cheshire!' When questioned if he meant Liverpool, The Rock agreed and even mentioned Liverpool's recent 1-0 win over Manchester City. However, it should be noted that Liverpool is not located in Cheshire, but in Lancashire. Despite this geographical error, The Rock's allegiance to Liverpool remains unwavering. In addition to his involvement in the entertainment industry, The Rock was recently named on the board of directors of TKO Group, a publicly traded company consisting of WWE and UFC. While he has made a return to WWE television and initially set up a match with WWE Undisputed Champion Roman Reigns, plans have changed due to a groundswell of support for Cody Rhodes. Rhodes will now face Reigns at WrestleMania XL on April 7, and The Rock 'turned heel' for the first time since 2003 at a press conference eight days ago.
