let me do this please he went from the
ring to the silver screen the world
needs a hero they can believe in is he
actually the son of Zeus I don’t think
it really matters welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 Dwayne
Johnson performances for this list we’re
taking a look at those film and TV
performances that show off this actor at
its finest and/or most memorable and if
you get your hands on the ball
hang on to it don’t give it back his
appearances in wrestling as entertaining
as they are won’t be included this is a
fact there’s a fact there’s a reason why
nobody’s been able to beat you there’s a
reason why the rock knows you’re bigger
you’re stronger you’re more dangerous
than practically everybody back there
number 10
John Matthews snitch looks like you’re
the one teaching me what real character
and integrity hold on how far would you
go to save your son kicking off our list
is a role that combines two of Dwayne
Johnson’s greatest attributes his status
as an unstoppable badass as well as a
kind-hearted father figure please I just
want to help my son in order to prevent
his son from spending years behind bars
John Matthews willingly throws himself
into the role of informant after he
agrees to go undercover to bring drug
dealers to justice give me advice
just being yourself as a tool of the
government and in the firing line of a
drug kingpin Johnson manages to
thoughtfully and perfectly conveyed the
drive he needs to protect his son which
is the only thing keeping this character
going love your son hello hey to number
nine Mathias the Scorpion King the free
guy well we’re not saying that we
disliked his appearance in The Mummy
Returns it’s just that it was so brief
we never really got to see how much of a
beast Dwayne Johnson could be on screen
this was quickly remedied in the
spin-off that showed the Scorpion King
in all his glory if your face meant
that is your destiny
I make my own destiny as we follow this
Akkadian in his search for vengeance
we’re treated to an epic adventure
filled with swords sand and a whole lot
of fire ants his role as the titular
character is what pretty much turned
Johnson from would-be actor to action
star heavyweight
and what an introduction to the industry
it was so what are we going the valley
of the Dead number eight
Shawn Porter gridiron day it’s just
gonna go on like this forever killing
each other cuz you live five blocks in
the wrong direction loosely based on
real events this sports flick showed
that Dwayne Johnson could do a lot more
than just break heads and burst through
walls and he could actually carry a
drama and tackle subjects that hit a
little closer to home maybe just like
little gangsters or won’t even mean
nothing it means something here right
here right now would it mean something a
worker at a detention center Shawn
Porter decides that the best way to
teach the resident delinquents about
discipline and maturity is to bring them
together as a football team you want to
play football with this team you’re
gonna live with the team eat with the
team and work with the team expect is
gonna be hard it’s a lot harder than
five homeboys beating up a security
guard for us in a film about second
chances and overcoming personal demons
one of its most surprising aspects is
just how much heart Johnson could bring
to the role you know you’re hitting it
right well I’m making progress
number seven back the run down I pick up
guns bad things happen to people I don’t
like that so this is a film about the
rock being lost in the jungle with a
screaming Sean William Scott by his side
while he has to take on a slave driving
Christopher Walken everyone buckled down
for a hilarious time done beat me up
let’s go while it may have done poorly
at the box office the rundown earned
Johnson praised as the universally
entertaining bounty hunter who when push
came to shove has to shoot down an
entire town filled with goons
all right it’s got action and comedy two
things the rock has become famous for
welcome to the jungle okay God monkey
number six chief ray gains San Andreas
it’s been a while since I got you to
second base turns out you don’t need
superpowers to survive in a city on the
brink of destruction if you’re Dwayne
Johnson all you need is a helicopter and
a truck getting out of there’s gonna be
a complete gridlock nightmare so get to
higher ground as an Air Rescue pilot Ray
has to contend with quite possibly the
worst day in a father’s life in this
movie he’s got to survive earthquakes
tsunamis divorce and a rebellious
daughter hey sweetie I was wondering if
there was room for my bike I thought
that I could ride it to class and then I
wouldn’t have to buy a parking pass it’s
a great idea I’m sure I could figure out
a way to put it in while it’s easy to
dismiss the film as another CGI disaster
fest thanks to Johnson’s constant
charisma and the fact that he can
parachute into a city in the middle of
an earthquake like a boss it’s not that
surprising that San Andreas became a
sleeper hit in 2015 could crash
okay hold on number five agent 23 get
smart and we have rules here you know
that and if you don’t follow the rules
and what are we there’s always gonna be
someone better at your job than you no
matter what the profession is it’s not
over max I’ll take that briefcase if you
want it and in this action comedy it
just so happens that Dwayne Johnson is
pretty much the best spy and field agent
ever to exist which is sort of
understandable when Steve Carell’s max
is one of his colleagues 23 you killed
me oh I could have I wanted to guess you
know channeling all the campy glory that
the spy genre is known for Get Smart
seize Johnson’s age of 23 stealing
almost every scene he’s in just by doing
the things everyone wishes they could do
faison point if you’ve never wanted to
staple a co-worker before agent 23 may
very likely change your mind
is this a stapler yeah let me show you
how to use it no oh okay
number four Hercules Hercules
many have taken on the mantle of this
mythological hero but few if any have
fully captured his physique quite like
Dwayne Johnson does in the 2014 fantasy
adventure flick the shield wall is your
home your shelter when you sleep the
wall is your blanket just one look at
him and you’re already convinced he’s a
demigod putting a twist on the classic
story
this new Hercules uses the tales of his
12 labors to convince others that he is
the legend as opposed to an ordinary
warrior that’s a word for that madness
while the debate as to whether his roots
are divine makes up the core of the film
Johnson’s interpretation is still hugely
entertaining and let’s be honest man or
god you would not want to take a punch
from this guy that’s my family
forgiveness number three spencer
strasmore fallers not do anything for
you right but you got to be straight up
with me I need the whole story stepping
away from knocking the crap out of
villains and dodging earthquakes the
rock took on his greatest challenge in
this HBO series financed first piece of
free advice you got to listen to I’ll
make millions in never by depreciating
asset okay as retired NFL player spencer
strasmore johnson’s character swaps
football for a cellphone but he still
has to deal with arrogant young football
players
you’re not even injured I got emotional
pain regarded as the highlight of what
has been called the NFL version of
Entourage Johnson has proven with
ballers that whatever the size of the
screen he has no problem charming the
pants off of audiences
you know Spence you’re all right
reminder ourselves the fact that a
second season was announced less than
halfway through the first proves this we
want to create a legacy and I say we
because it doesn’t happen without me
number two Paul Doyle pain and gain all
right here’s the deal little fella I’m
gonna have got you’re not
okay we are pretty sure Dwayne Johnson
is one of the few people who could make
a former convict with a cocaine
addiction that has turned to
Christianity
both sympathetic and hilarious Jesus
Christ himself has blessed me with many
gifts
one of them is knocking someone to go
with nothing but a desire to get his
fair share of the American Dream Paul
Doyle along with some equally buff gym
buddies embarks on a journey filled with
excess taboo and murder which ultimately
ends in their incarceration in light of
his cooperation mr. Doyle was given only
15 years a sentence for which he seemed
legitimately grateful
the group may be selfish and morally
rotten but they’re just so damn likable
I cannot kill duly noted and this is
mostly due to Doyle’s conflict between
following his faith and embracing the
kind of incredible wealth that comes
complete with plenty of strippers
without James Bond what so sad I had to
hurt a man today before we unveil our
number one pick here are some honorable
mentions
– better be sure because if the long
dark road your head you thinking what
I’m thinking partner aim for the bushes
what’s in there
sir get your taillights fix your last
warning
what’s wrong with my taillights they’re
broken in the immortal words of jay-z
hmm whatever deity may guide my life
your Lord don’t let me die tonight but
if I shall before I wake I’d accept my
fate I got a plan
might get us both killed but if it works
it’ll be a totally boss story COO no I
was not cool
number one Luke Hobbs The Fast and the
Furious franchise you’re under arrest
this series of high-octane action films
filled with fistfights and car chases
galore was admittedly in danger of going
off-road after several sequels like
peaceful whatever demons you got left
cuz come tomorrow I will find you
but then came fast five and the
introduction of Dwayne Johnson as Luke
Hobbs a Diplomatic Security Service
agent and a man who could quite
literally toss the series main character
around the room thereby becoming the new
resident badass on the block why do I
smell baby oil you keep running your
piehole you’re going to smell nice kick
he not only breathed life back into the
franchise he also gave us a character
that we look forward to seeing again as
much as and for some more so than
Dominic Toretto badass does not even
begin to cover it
thanks Hulse thanks for everything
come on way too sentimental right now do

favorite dwayne johnson role would you
