North Texans turned out Friday for an evening with WWE’s finest at American Airlines Center.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson walks to the ring during "WWE Smackdown" at American Airlines Center, Friday, March 8, 2024, in Dallas.A wise man once told me sports were soap operas for guys, in which case wrestling might be the purest form: easy-to-follow melodramas of good vs. evil. Is it fake? Yes and no.
Robert Holcomb of Tyler helps his son Hunter Holcomb, 6, wear a mask as his wife, Courtney Holcomb, looks on outside American Airlines Center on Friday, March 8, 2024, in Dallas.“I think it’s cool,” says the 7-year-old in front of me, Jake Shields. His dad drove them from their place in Melissa, an hour away, but a sunny afternoon turned unexpectedly chilly, and now Jake is staying warm by tucking his arms inside his Cody Rhodes T-shirt.but a more plausible one was “any music band shirt.
The Rock takes the ring. “You shut your mouth!” he bellows. “Let The Rock drop some gospel.” Known for his charisma off-camera, The Rock plays a bad guy for the WWE , and he stalks the mat in sunglasses and a silk vest, his lip curling like he smells something foul. His good-guy opponent Cody Rhodes enters in a gray suit and purple tie, looking like an insurance salesman with a neck tattoo.
The televised portion ends with The Slap, but folks in the arena get a bonus round, another hour. I wander the gleamy white corridors talking with fans. Couples, middle managers, a trio of women whose sons are friends. Hailey Schlein is 5 — purple dress with a long-sleeved cotton top and a poofy chiffon bottom, paired with cowboy boots — and she’s not much for talking to strangers.
