How is The Rock preparing for WrestleMania 40? All you need to know about his special training camp

The Rock is preparing to make a highly-anticipated return to the wrestling ring for a full-fledged match, marking his first official match in over a decade. His last official match took place in 2013, when he faced off against John Cena, not including his spontaneous match against Eric Rowan at WrestleMania 32. With a significant amount of time having passed since his last match, The Great One is dedicated to training intensely in order to shake off any potential ring rust and deliver a stellar performance at WrestleMania 40.

In a recent interview with ESPN, Brian Gewirtz revealed details about how the Hollywood star is gearing up for his highly anticipated tag team match at The Show of Shows. The Rock began his training in February of this year, with WWE making special accommodations for him.

The promotion, headquartered in Stamford, sent two rings to accommodate The Final Boss. One was delivered to his residence in Los Angeles, where he currently resides, and the other to his family’s home in Hawaii. The Rock initiated his physical training in LA, utilizing a warehouse as a training facility with three NXT wrestlers.

Despite being 52 years old, the individual has been training alone in a specially set up ring in Huwaii. They have also taken the time to spend quality time with their family in the same location. The person, known as the Brahma Bull, has been meticulously following a strict diet and putting in maximum effort to prepare for their highly anticipated tag team match in Philadelphia against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.

The WWE training camp in Los Angeles included the supervision of The Rock’s training sessions by producers Michael Hayes and Bobby Roode. Additionally, veteran referee Chad Patton oversaw all of his sessions and the WWE medical team provided constant care for him.

The Rock’s Intense Gym Training Regimen

Despite being in top form and training rigorously for his upcoming match in Philadelphia on April 6th, the Hollywood star has chosen to focus less on mobility drills. This decision could stem from various reasons.

The Rock is practicing a select few moves, such as suplexes, top rope maneuvers, collisions, and moves that are suitable for tag team matches. The Great One is placing more emphasis on precision-based techniques rather than fast-paced sequences in the wrestling ring.

As he prepares for his upcoming tag team match at WrestleMania XL, the 52-year-old star has been diligently taking precautions to avoid injury. This includes putting in extra effort during his training camps in both Los Angeles and Hawaii, as well as maintaining a healthy diet.

The Rock’s return to in-ring action after a long absence is highly anticipated, especially since he is currently embroiled in one of WWE’s most captivating storylines.
