As artists and filmmakers our main priority will always be to create the most THRILLING THEATRICAL EXPERIENCE we can for audiences around the world. Telling stories is an honor. Delivering those stories to the world – is a privilege.

Johnson also attached a video where he was effusive with his thanks to Disney, hyping up both the animated sequel Moana 2, as well as the live-action remake of Moana. Johnson is currently away from WWE programming following the Bloodline's loss to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. Though Johnson has promised some revenge against The Undertaker for the help he gave Rhodes that night in Philadelphia.
