"Throughout his career, Johnson has proven to be the ultimate badass - an action star with a flair for comedy, one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time and a true family man. He continues to captivate his audience worldwide and we are thrilled to celebrate him with the Generation Award."


The award will mark another honor Johnson has received, having already been named one of 2019 Time Magazine’s "100 Most Influential People" in addition to 2017’s NAACP’s "Entertainer of the Year" and People’s annual "Sexiest Man Alive" in 2016.
