Roy Lopez revealed that his favourite wrestler was former WWE Superstar The Rock
Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock is one of the most popular wrestlers of all time. Starting off in the mid-90s, The Rock picked up steam and in no time was one of the most sought professional wrestlers.
Using his charismatic wrestling persona, he minted a movie career for himself, and today, is one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. Very few actors are paid as much as the Rock is paid.
With a massive fan base, the Rock is well-known all around the globe. In a recent interview with Deep Slant presented by XFinity, Houston Texans defensive tackle Roy Lopez was asked about his favourite wrestler.
Lopez went on to state that ‘The Rock’ was his all-time favourite, before going on to add that he had plenty of action figures of the Rock and also watched hours and hours of VHS about the ‘People’s Champion.’

The Rock was quick to acknowledge Roy Lopez. Taking to Twitter, The Rock hilariously mentioned getting his own a** getting kicked.
The Rock wrote:
“Let’s do it Lopez! The Texan and The Brahma Bull. I’ll set the edge on that DLine. Get my ass kicked then we’ll all go eat a great dinner and drink. @Teremana.@HoustonTexans#DLineBrothers4L“
It is worth noting that The Rock was a football player as well. He played for the Miami Hurricanes National Football Team before going on to become a wrestler.
