Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is happy to be back on the ground this week after what he experienced on Friday.

It was supposed to be a celebration for starting a new UFL season for the league owner, but it turned into something vastly different.

Johnson was supposed to attend the opening game of the UFL season in Houston, Texas, on Friday. However, he was forced to return home to Hawaii.

Speaking on social media platform X, the WWE superstar revealed he was heading to the event as planned before the captain of his plane suddenly had to come out and inform him that they would need to turn back due to a malfunction.

“Last night, we had some issues with the plane,” Johnson began his video.

“About 35-40 minutes into the flight, the pilot comes back to me, he gets down on one knee, and he faces me, face-to-face, and it’s just me on the plane, just me and the crew.

The Rock continued: “He says, ‘Mr. Johnson, I’m sorry to inform you, but we cannot continue to fly over the ocean, we have a problem, we have to turn the plane around and we have to land back in Hawaii. You have my word, I will land you back safely on the island.’”

It was a sobering moment for him as he further explained that he was extremely thankful for how his captain acted in the circumstances, which kept him calm in an extremely worrying moment.

“I so appreciate his demeanour, his name is Captain David, I appreciate his demeanour in that moment,” he said.

“He explained to me what happened, he said it was a hydraulics issue with overheating, and he said there were some issues we could work out as we’re in the air, and then there’s some that we’re not gonna take a chance, especially over the ocean, and especially when the computer on the airplane is saying, ‘Don’t fly over the ocean anymore, you’ve gotta get back to land.

“I so appreciate the crew, I appreciate them getting us back to land safely, I appreciate God, the universe. I took this as a sign from God and the universe. I wish, though, I was there in Houston, Texas.”

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Did Not Miss Very Much In Houston

The St. Louis Battlehawks entered the 2025 UFL season with questions about how they would replace AJ McCarron at the QB position, and all it took was one game as they finished with a 31-6 blowout of the Houston Roughnecks.

Quarterback Manny Wilkins completed 17 of 22 passes for 189 yards for the Battlehawks.

He racked up 43 yards and two touchdowns on eight carries on the ground.

The game was never competitive.

It was also a contest where Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was supposed to attend.

Johnson revealed that his private plane, which was traveling from Hawaii to Houston for the United Football League’s 2025 season opener, had a mechanical issue that forced the pilot to return.

As you can see, that malfunction saved him from a terrible game.

Aside from the game, the official attendance figure for the 2025 UFL season opener between the St.Louis Battlehawks and Houston Roughnecks at TDECU stadium was only 7,124.

Social media might be down incredibly bad as Lucia from Grand Theft Auto is going insanely viral.

GTA 6’s trailer 2 officially broke a record after the upcoming second look at the game, which has continued to take forever to come out.

GTA 6 broke the record for the longest wait between a first and second trailer for a Rockstar Games title ever.

Rockstar has built a rich world of criminals, lunatics, and thieves spanning from Liberty City to San Andreas and beyond. With GTA 6 on the horizon, fans have become ecstatic after seeing a picture of Lucia.

For those unaware, she is a female criminal in the game. Grand Theft Auto states that she did her time at a prison complex in the State of Leonida in the mid-2020s for an unknown crime.

As anticipation builds for the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, a picture shows Lucia stripped down to a two-piece bikini.
