In and out of the squared circle, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has faced off against a number of opponents, from Vin Diesel in "Fast Five" to wrestler CM Punk, who he defeated at the WWE's "Royal Rumble" in January to land the WWE Championship belt.
When The Rock's not defending his title (which he did successfully this past Sunday at the WWE's "Elimination Chamber" event against Punk), he's walking tall in Hollywood, with his latest film, "Snitch," coming out Friday. In the new flick, Johnson plays a father who goes undercover for the government to help them take down some drug dealers in a bid to get his son out of jail.
Listed by WWE.com at 6 feet 5 inches tall and as muscular as ever, the 40-year-old Johnson cuts an imposing figure. Yet Hollywood routinely pits him against some folks that, realistically, shouldn't stand a chance.
amNewYork looks at some of The Rock's movie opponents to see how he'd fare against them in a real fight (of course, spoiler warnings abound here):
