If anyone could have predicted that this would be the year Dwayne Johnson threw caution to the wind and started openly flirting with the dictionary on Twitter, then we’d kindly ask that the next set of lottery numbers are shared with the class immediately.
It would have been much easier to call Black Adam bombing at the box office and ending in The Rock being exiled from the DCU after less than two hours of screentime than it would guessing the actor and producer would voluntarily suggest a name change from the iconic moniker that defined his professional wrestling career after being caught up in a social media exchange with Merriam-Webster.
And yet, this is currently where we find ourselves, with Johnson suggesting a more accurate and academic rebranding that doesn’t quite have the same ring to it.
The Geological One has never been known as a shrinking violet, which to be expected when he’s constantly reminding us that as well as being an A-list megastar and one of the highest-paid talents in Hollywood, he just so happens to be the part-owner of an entire football league, rapidly-expanding tequila brand, and an energy drink as well.
If anyone can flirt with the dictionary and get away with it, then you’d have to put Johnson somewhere near the top of the list, not that it was a roster we’d even considered compiling this time yesterday. Suffice to say, Twitter remains as strange a place as it ever was, and that isn’t going to change.
