The Rock is getting the nostalgia feels ahead of Wrestlemania 32 and has just shared this behind the scenes story about Stone Cold.
In a quick Instagram post, The Rock takes us back to Wrestlemania 15 in 1999, where the People’s Champ featured in the main event against Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Apparently, although The Rock was the WWE/F World Champion at the time, didn’t quite have the rub with the higher ups, with a few wrestlers at the time having doubts that he was the man to close out Wrestlemania.
Which is where everyone’s favourite beer-drinking Texan comes in.
Steven Austin gave his Wrestlemania rival some Stone Cold tips with how to deal with complaints.
His advice to The Rock? A succinct “F*ck those motherf*ckers”.
The full story of behind the classic battle can be found below. While we wait for Stone Cold to open up a motivational speaker course, why don’t you check out JOE’s guide to what you can learn from professional wrestling?
