His first three picks were Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and Stone Cold Steve Austin. Talking about the fourth and final spot, The Rock said that he likes to keep it blank because he can't choose between other WWE legends like Buddy Rodgers, Bruno Sammartino, ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage, and Dusty Rhodes.

"My wrestling Mount Rushmore would be 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan, 'The Nature Boy' Ric Flair, 'The Texas Rattlesnake' Stone Cold Steve Austin. That fourth person, I always kind of keep blank,” said The Rock.
