Therefore, it would only be fair to assume that a show about his life and career would be popular.However, such is not entirely the case. While the show in itself has managed to garner positive reviews, the same cannot be said about the casting choices.
In the past too, there have been questions raised about the actors who played
Triple H, Jim Ross, etc. Fans believe that it is unfair to not accurately represent these important individuals from WWE.But, the show in itself seems to be doing quite well. It has completed 32 episodes and follows Dwayne Johnson’s journey from childhood to now.
