We were the coolest cats in Vegas,” joked Dwayne Johnson, while noting that he and Bill Gates talked about technology and fanny packs. Reactions to the actor’s post were swift, with the official Xbox account adding to the jokes by calling them “team world champions.”

Among the actor’s most recent appearances in video games was at the end of Chapter 3 of Fortnite, where an intense animated video depicting the events of The End revealed that the character of The Foundation is none other than Dwayne Johnson.
