The Rock tweeted the following in response to a Sports Illustrated article marking 21 years since his WWE debut:
The Rock debuted 21 years ago today, at the 1996 Survivor Series PPV:
Crazy it all started 21yrs ago today. Made my @wwe debut. My #1 goal was buy my parents their first home. 3yrs later in ’99 I was able to. No idea where this crazy road would lead me, I just knew I was willing to work my ass off and that I loved the hell outta Waffle House ??????
