In "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" viewers are introduced to football player Anthony "Fridge" Johnson (Ser'Darius Blain) while he's wearing his Brantford High jersey. It's emblazoned with the number 94, which isn't an insignificant or random number — it's actually the first of many Easter eggs about The Rock hidden within the film.

Back in the day, Dwayne Johnson was a football player at the University of Miami, playing for the Miami Hurricanes while sporting the number 94. The necklace that Fridge wears around his neck in the movie, and its 2019 sequel, is another nod to The Rock's football career as it also displays the number.

As "Welcome to the Jungle" progresses, it continues to poke fun at The Rock. Once they are in Jumanji, Fridge, now played by Kevin Hart, comments on Bravestone's height and weight, using Johnson's real-life measurements. Additionally, when the gang is preparing to return the jewel to the statue, The Rock's avatar, Dr. Xander "Smolder" Bravestone, tries to go it alone, saying, "I'm pretty sure this is a Bravestone thing." He refers to himself in the third person like the actor used to during his wrestling career. Speaking of which, his WWF (now WWE) career began in 1996, the same year Alex was sucked into the game.
