Would Rock have "made it" if WWE had their films division in 1999?

I was replying to another thread and it got me wondering if Rock would have actually been able to get away from wrestling if WWE was handling all his earlier films under the WWE Films banner.

Now, obviously he has the talent to act, but had he been strongly tied in with WWE Films, I feel it would have been harder for him to break away since WWE would be controlling him film-wise, at least for a time. He would have eventually made it by himself I think, but he may have stuck with WWE a bit longer.

So would Rock have made it away from WWE if he started under the WWE Films banner? Would it have taken longer for him to break away? Or would it have been the same?

Discuss.
