On March 25th, 2021, the earliest discovered reuploads of the videos were made on Reddit and YouTube (shown below).

Johnson often did the expression through his wrestling and movie career (example photographs and video shown below). After 1998 when The Rock started calling himself "The People's Champ" in honor of Mohammed Ali, Johnson began referring to the expression as "The People's Eyebrow" by extension of that. During his wrestling career, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would often make a facial expression of raising one eyebrow, lowering the other and tilting his head.
