WWE legend The Rock announced Tuesday he will be the executive producer on an upcoming movie based on the life story of WWE star Paige.
Paige – who has been missing from WWE programming since last summer due to a combination of WWE Wellness Policy violations and injuries – comes from a family of professional wrestlers. Her parents and two brothers all perform as wrestlers, and her family runs a wrestling promotion in her hometown of Norwich, England. Paige, whose real name is Saraya-Jade Bevis, wrestled her first match professionally at the age of 13 and traveled across Europe and the United States before eventually signing with WWE in 2011.
The Rock will have a cameo in the film according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Exciting project just been announced. Thx to @TheRock and @StephenMerchant for giving my family a chance to shine! Forever thankful!
