Forbes released its annual list of the 100 highest-paid entertainers today, and not only was The Rock included, he made history.
The former WWE Champion placed No. 4 on the vaunted list with a reported earning of $124 million thanks to box-office smashes like “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.” Forbes also reports that The Great One’s acting earnings are the highest ever tracked in the 20-year history of the magazine’s Celebrity 100 list.

I don’t have a Harvard MBA, but my business philosophy has been sharpened over time and thru failure. I have one boss I serve and connect with - the world and the people in it. I’m the dude who started w/ $7bucks. I’m awestruck ($124M) grateful & hungry. https://t.co/0VWSn5YU6N
