Dwayne Johnson has been focusing on his Hollywood projects ever since his last appearance in WWE on Raw after Mania. One of the upcoming films that will feature him is The Smashing Machine. The Rock will play Mark Kerr, a real-life UFC fighter. The plot of the movie revolves around personal and professional challenges during his prime years in the MMA industry.
Although Kerr was also a wrestler, he had to train for MMA as well. As a result, Johnson has to undergo special training for an accurate depiction. A recently shared training video on social media sparked some interesting replies from fans.

In the training video, we can see The Brahma Bull grappling with the trainer while also practicing his punches and kicks. To make his body flow comfortably, he is covering his torso with an oversized tank top, pairing it with a speedo. This latter part of his outfit is what caused the fans to troll him in the comment section. This is only a glimpse of the changes that Johnson would have to undergo for the film. So, more trolling comments may be on the way.
