Fast And Furious Star Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, made waves when he did a Bambi impersonation in Saturday Night Live.

Once again, 'The Rock' nailed it when he showed his lip sync skills on the inaugural episode of 'Lip Sync Battle' on Spike Network last April 2, according to People Magazine.

With a huge built and a strong stance, Johnson could've selected a macho metal number or a song that mimics his grand entrance during his wrestling days to battle against Fallon, but he opted to do a 'Taylor Swift' instead.

"We got a guy like this, he's been running his mouth all week, he's been telling the world he's gonna beat me, we just shake it off," said the 42 year old former wrestler turned actor.

The Fast And Furious Star, who chose something sweeter for his size, mimed along with Swift's song, 'Shake It Off'.
Perhaps this may be Johnson's best performance for the show and he also nailed the rap breakdown of the song with matching pop star moves.

"You can tell that he's done this before in his bedroom," said Fallon, amazed by Johnson's performance.

Jimmy Fallon, the veteran of lip sync battles, tried his best to beat Johnson with Harry Belafonte's song, 'Jump in the Line'.  Fallon also tried an upbeat song with a flirty vibe by singing Madonna's legendary hit, 'Like a Virgin' in the second round.

However, Johnson, in his 'Tony Manero' impression, dressed up in white flared pants and started to mime the Bee Gee's hit, 'Staying Alive'.

Johnson was inevitably the winner for this lip sync battle after rendering two great performances.
