  • No, but common misperception. During the 2000 election, the WWE did a JUST VOTE campaign and sent The Rock to both conventions. He said he was there for bipartisan reasons but the GOP gave him a more plum spot at their event (introducing Dick Cheney) so many people perceived him as a Republican after that even though Biden in 2020 was his first ever official public endorsement.

    Also, funny story about that campaign. The WWE actually was doing a bipartisan “Rock Tha Vote” campaign in 2000 until the night before the election. Then Jerry Lawler went on Monday Night Raw and went on a diatribe against Gore/Lieberman because Vince McMahon told him to.
