There have been rumors swirling for months about the possibility of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson running for President of the United States, with one fan even registering a campaign committee on his behalf.

One of Johnson's former WWE rivals, Chris Jericho, told "The Rich Eisen Show" he has "no doubt" it will happen.

"I think we're in the era now of celebrity presidents," Jericho said. "I think our current president got in because he knew how to work a camera. I think Rock knows how to work a camera better than (Donald) Trump does, and has much more charisma, and (is) much more likable."

Johnson hasn't committed to a future presidential run, but did call it "a real possibility" in May.
