The Rock appears on The Tonight Show to talk movies and wrestling

Reported by Ernest I Aguilar



Dwayne Johnson was a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno yesterday promoting his new movie Journey 2: The Mysterious Island and talk a bit about wrestling as well.

The Rock was his usual fun self, telling stories from his football days, the phone call from his mom which halted the red carpet in Taiwan for a few minutes, and obviously wrestling.

Leno asked Rock if he ever had any wardrobe malfunctions while in the ring and Rock said he was doing his Rock pose on the turnbuckle once during a live show and "one of my boulders had boom, popped out," Rock narrated as the audience laughed, adding that that that is why they call him The Rock.

The Rock also talked about going back to the Survivor Series and trying to sing during a backstage segment, explaining how he couldn't remember the exact words so he had writer Brian Gewirtz write it down on a piece of paper for him. He told Gewirtz to hold the paper up just in case he stumbles on the words again during the live segment and as Rocky started singing and coming up to that particular point, he looked over to Gewirtz who was holding a blank piece of paper...as the words he wrote were on the other side facing away from The Rock.

The Rock stayed there talking to Leno for a total of around 10 minutes and wrapped up his appearance by singing a song to the crowd and showing a clip of the new movie. You can see the whole segment below.
