Former NXT star Wolfgang recently revealed that there was some tension between The Rock and WWE ahead of WrestleMania 40. During the main event on Night One, Lock faced Roman Reigns in a match against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. Lock prepared for this with training sessions alongside Wolfgang, Joe, and Mark Coffey, sharing a photo with WWE’s top star afterward. Wolfgang later shared that The Rock and WWE experienced a bit of a mishap during their trip to the training camp in Los Angeles, citing delays involving The Rock’s private plane which left Wolfgang and the others with a free day to explore the city instead. Despite these hiccups, Lock secured a victory in his WWE return, pinning Cody Rhodes just before Roman intervened. The Rock’s last WWE appearance was at the Elimination Chamber in March, where he played a pivotal role involving John Cena ahead of WrestleMania 41. Meanwhile, Gallus was released from WWE in May, having last performed at an NXT live event in late April.
