To see a wrestler in drag and playing a very gay bartender in a gay club, etc., told me that he was not Johnny Testosterone and he didn't take himself too seriously. As a friend of mine said, when ever you see Hulk Hogan he's "Hulk Hogan" but with the Rock, it's more of a stage personna. He seems to be a pretty smart, okay guy. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Whereas, with most wrestlers, there is no doubt. They are what they are.
