The Rock’s WrestleMania 40 Traning Camp

According to a recent report by ESPN, The Final Boss has been training hard for a long time for his upcoming WrestleMania 40 match. The Rock has set up an entire training camp of his own, just like MMA and Boxing, for his professional wrestling return.

Wrestle Purist posted a report by ESPN via the official Twitter account, “WWE shipped two rings to LA and worked with Johnson's team to rent warehouses as training facilities.   One ring was set up in LA, where he simulated matches alongside NXT's Gallus. 

Since Johnson is competing in a tag-team match, he needed three wrestlers to push through in-ring sequences and hone his timing. Michael Hayes supervised those training sessions along with Bobby Roode. Referee Chad Patton officiated the sessions while WWE Medical oversaw the rehearsals to make sure it was run safely.” 

So, it's indeed going to be a high-octane battle between the WWE stars.
