Wrestlemania 17, the classic of classics:banderas:

Walking tall and the Rundown are dope, probably not considered true classics tho

No. He's been in a lot of movies, but he has no classics. He will never be what Schwarzenegger and Stallone were until he gets one.

Until he's in something rated R for actual adults and he's actually the Rock for an entire movie i doubt he will ever get that classic that many are hoping for.

The problem with the rock is he takes no risks. Until he does he will continue to make safe, pg13 over the top action joints and comedies.
His R rated shyt was good. Faster, Pain & Gain..hell I thought he was one of the few highlights of Doom

Black Adam is supposed to R rated...hopefully that's the role that symbolizes him

He has yet to have that singular character in a movie that he is known for like how Stallone has Rocky/Rambo and Arnold has Terminator.
I think a lot of the reason for that is "The Rock" is such a large character already so that persona supersedes any of the characters he has played onscreen.
But he does have some really good movies under his belt.
