The Rock stuns at 2026 Met Gala before WWE WrestleMania 43 reveal
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson made a bold statement at the 2026 Met Gala with a striking custom-made outfit. The event, themed Fashion is Art, saw the actor and wrestler in a dramatic Thom Browne design. His appearance came just before his announcement about WWE WrestleMania 43 in Saudi Arabia.
The 2026 Met Gala took place under the theme Fashion is Art, with Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams, and Anna Wintour serving as co-chairs. Johnson arrived in a head-turning ensemble: a black mohair tailcoat paired with a matching pleated skirt. The tailcoat alone featured over 350 metres of hand-pleated silk ribbons, arranged in what Browne described as a 'skeletal composition'.
Days later, during an interview with *Raffi Talks*, Johnson shifted focus to wrestling. He called the upcoming 2027 WWE WrestleMania 43 a 'global event', expressing enthusiasm for its Saudi Arabian location. His comments highlighted the scale of the production and its international appeal.
Johnson’s Met Gala look cemented his reputation for daring fashion choices. Meanwhile, his promotion of WrestleMania 43 underscored the event’s growing global reach. Both appearances reinforced his status as a cross-industry figure in entertainment and sports.
