Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt worked together for Disney’s Jungle Cruise. The film has been renewed for a sequel where we will see The Rock return with his on-screen love interest. Working together on the project helped the two co-stars get closer in real life. This is when they started gifting each other things.
When talking about the gifts during a recent podcast interview, the actress was asked about the freebie ticket to WrestleMania XL that she received from The Brahma Bull. The acclaimed actress revealed that she turned down the offer to show up at the PLE.

As per the tradition, Blunt went to Johnson to gift him something after their movie wrapped up. The “Final Boss” felt bad for not bringing her anything. Since then, he has been gifting her many things. One gift from the Samoan star included a ticket to WrestleMania XL. However, the actress did not go to the biggest PLE of the year. When this topic came up, Blunt said on The Howard Stern Show, “I watched it at home, I did not go watch it live. I wanted to but I felt I should… You know because I never, you know, to be honest with you, I never watched him wrestle.”
The Fall Boy star may not get another WrestleMania XL ticket again, but she may catch her former co-star wrestle again in WWE once he returns to the promotion. Nevertheless, she doesn’t have to wait long to enjoy the company of The Rock as they are set to work together once again. The two will be seen again in The Smashing Machine before the sequel to the Disney movie they were featured in.
