Dwayne Johnson BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Dwayne Johnson has made headlines this past week for family moments more than showbiz spectacle. On July 29 he posted a viral Instagram video letting his daughters Jasmine and Tiana paint his entire face and shaved head a sparkling, hot pink, capped by a lighter pink lipstick and metallic gold flash tattoos on his neck. The Rock endured their giggling, orchestral artistry in good humor, later writing that his large head makes the perfect canvas for their “makeover endeavors.” Social media ate it up, with People magazine and 7NEWS both spotlighting the reel and fans flooding the comments to praise him as the ultimate “girl dad.” Johnson wrote that life’s decisions cycle between “good idea, great idea, or what the hell was I thinking,” but declared his willingness to be a fearless dad for his girls. This content even prompted E! News and fans to share behind-the-scenes laughs, further reinforcing his family-man public persona, a trend he’s leaned into especially since reprising Maui in Moana and speaking about fatherhood at recent press events.

Despite heated speculation, Johnson is not scheduled for today’s WWE SummerSlam at MetLife Stadium, according to Wrestling World and other WWE insiders. Earlier rumors suggested he might play a pivotal role in the evolving John Cena heel storyline, a prospect that previously ignited buzz after his shock Elimination Chamber cameo. But with no backstage whispers, no creative plans, and no official teases or promos, fans are left disappointed, especially after being let down by his absence at WrestleMania and again now with Cena versus Rhodes headlining instead. Even veteran pundits like Vince Russo criticized WWE’s missed opportunity to capitalize on Johnson’s drawing power, noting a “momentum drop” in the Bloodline narrative, but stressed that there’s simply nothing in play—on television, backstage, or social. The lasting implication is that Johnson’s sporadic wrestling involvement is being put on hold, fueling speculation about whether he’ll return to the ring at all or is pivoting toward permanent Hollywood focus.

Outside the ring, Johnson paid an emotional tribute on X to Hulk Hogan after the legend’s passing, reminiscing about their bond in wrestling and entertainment. In a lighter business moment, Johnson recently visited country star Jelly Roll at the American Idol set, publicly recalling how the singer’s music helped him through tough times years ago—a rare window into Johnson’s vulnerability and mental health conversations. Meanwhile, his behind-the-scenes work continues unabated, with new posts revealing massive high-intensity training sessions for his upcoming film The Smashing Machine. All told, the week cements Johnson as a family-first superstar who, even when absent from the ring, never strays far from the spotlight or the hearts of his fans.
