To promote his next movie “The Smashing Machine”, based on the life of UFC Legend Mark Kerr, The Rock posted the following on Instagram:
“From the wrestling ring to the MMA cage.
With WrestleMania behind me – my second training camp of 2024 begins tomorrow for my next role, in a film titled – The Smashing Machine.
My body’s banged up from Mania, but no injuries and feeling great – ready to go.
Starting my MMA workouts tomorrow.
I’m coming into this in pretty good conditioning and cardio shape, but MMA is a different animal.
And Mark Kerr was a ‘one of one’ monster.
I run to this Smashing Machine journey with deep respect and love for all MMA fighters and the culture.
Especially those who have struggled with addiction.
I’ve lost so many friends (wrestlers) over the years from addiction and mental health struggle – from suicide too, it was just their time to go.
This is my love letter to them.
Let’s get to work.”
