Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson Fed Up With Wrestling Demands 2/29/08

Professional wrestler-turned-actor Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is tired of fielding questions about his wrestling future - after retiring from the sport five years ago.

The 35-year-old decided to part ways with World Wrestling Entertainment and pursue a career in Hollywood after "falling in love" with acting on the set of 2001's The Mummy Returns.

But the Scorpion King star insists he is still bombarded with queries as to when The Rock will return to the ring.

He says, "I probably wouldn't get asked that question if I had made a bigger splash about my retirement. But I retired quietly five years ago.

"I didn't want it to be a grand exit, I just wanted to walk away, so I thanked everybody that I needed to thank, and did just that."
