Sure, like all wrestlers he might have gotten a bit beaten up over time, but he never destroyed his body like Hogan, Austin, Undertaker etc..
I know he got out of the business early and young, but did he never have a bad injury during his WWE runs? Mick Foley had knee injuries. Edge, Cena, Austin had neck injuries. Taker has broken his face a few times. Also unlike many other retired guys, The Rock could easily wrestle without risk of paralysis or dying in the ring.
I think the other guy that has never been injured is Y2J am i right?

Honestly, the only time I remember him taking any significant time off was when he was filming Scorpion King.

I don't recall the Miz or John Morrison having any significant injuries either.

I don't remember him ever taking any risky bumps or table spots, so it would make sense if he was injury-free.

I don't think Dean Malenko suffered any injuries. Which is surprising, considering the era he started in.

Didn't he take time off to have gyno surgery?

Well, there was the one time that Hogan ran him over with a semi truck, but Rock just taped up his ribs and was back in action the very next week.  |

Hold on didn't Hulk Hogan run him over with an articulated lorry once? Or was that treated similarly to Cena's 'ruptured spleen'?

Correct me if I'm wrong... but wasn't there a shoulder injury he suffered in between his initial face run as Rocky Maivia and return and heel turn with the Nation?

So Rock went through his WWE tenure virtually injury free, but got injured on the set of The Game Plan. Irony...
