A great 2024 was made even better at year’s end for Dwyane “The Rock” Johnson.
A new SEC filing released on Friday night revealed that Johnson was awarded 96,557 Class A shares of TKO stock on December 31st as part of an arrangement made when he returned to WWE in late-January 2024, joining the TKO Board.
The allotment has a present day value of $13,749,716.80 (closing price of $142.40 per share).
The December 31st vesting equates to half of a total grant of 193,115 restricted stock units Johnson was given on January 23, 2024. The remaining allotment will be doled out monthly throughout 2025.
The filing states Johnson owns 289,673 total shares — good for over $41 million in present day value. He earned nearly 97,000 shares alone following his appearance at night one of 2024’s WrestleMania 40.
Johnson’s January return also included him gaining full IP ownership of “The Rock” name in addition to other character-related trademarks.
Johnson hasn’t appeared on WWE TV since last October’s WWE Bad Blood. It’s unknown if he will appear as part of WWE Raw’s debut on Netflix this Monday or what his participation will be for WrestleMania 41.
