The Rock Made His In-Ring WWE Debut 20 Years Ago Today

Posted By: Ben Kerin on Nov 17, 2016

Twenty years ago today, The Rock made his in-ring debut at Survivor Series 1996, in a traditional 4-on-4 elimination match. The Rock was the sole survivor for his team which included Marc Mero, Jake Roberts, and The Stalker defeating Crush, Jerry Lawler, Triple H, and Goldust.

Within just a few short years he would go on to become one of the company's biggest household names and propel professional wrestling to new heights never seen before.

You can watch The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment look back at his WWE debut at Survivor Series '96 below, although back then he was simply known as Rocky Mavia the "blue chipper"
