BREAKING - Dwayne The Rock Johnson Considering Purchasing NHL Team?
Reportedly, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is considering becoming a member of the ownership group that plans to purchase the Ottawa Senators. According to Brent Wallace of TSN and Yahoo Sports, the famous wrestler-turned-actor is interested in joining the Neko Sparks Group, which has expressed its willingness to pay over $950 million to acquire the Senators.
Wallace made this revelation while appearing on the radio show "Coming in Hot." While it is unclear what role Johnson would play in the ownership group, his involvement could add a touch of glamour to the Senators, who have struggled in recent seasons.
The Senators have been looking for a buyer for the team for some time. The Neko Sparks Group is just one of several interested parties, and it remains to be seen whether they will be successful in their bid.
If the deal goes through, Johnson would join the ranks of other famous sports team owners, including Jay-Z, Will Smith, and Jennifer Lopez. While his involvement in the Senators' ownership group is not yet confirmed, it is clear that the prospect of owning a professional sports team is an attractive one for the former WWE superstar.
