KEEP ON FIGHTING – Dwayne Johnson (The Rock Motivation)
I wrestle John Cena and I went in and I
think it’s 2013 I went in WWE Champion
and we went in MetLife Stadium
we had a record-breaking attendance
which was amazing that night we
accomplished our goal so I rested with
John Cena we had 45 minutes plan for the
match it’s nonstop and go right so your
conditioning is tested and at that time
I wasn’t full time in WWE I was just
doing these spot matches where I would I
was still shooting Bassam vr6 in London
had to travel in the ring get all my
ring work in travel back to shoot fast
and furious then back WWE Raw doing
those shows the big build-up to
WrestleMania against John we get to
MetLife Stadium it’s a big night this is
it’s game night right it’s a
championship night for me 45 minute
matches planned out at the 15 minute
mark
bang I feel some pop boom laying there
and both of us are out I said off Fox I
was going on
and I stick my head now it’s 85,000
people right we just laid out like this
I kind of rolled over I stick my hand
down in my trunk just to see I want to
make sure that there was no bone
sticking out so just happened referee
comes over and he’s like rocky all right
come on fuck I get up I go to step and I
can’t catch that can’t do this
I have to use my leg like momentum I do
that
so now in that moment and you guys are
gonna have these moments you probably
already had them already where you’re in
the game and you’re in the thick of
things you gotta make a decision where I
got to do I’m stay in the game committed
to the team I committed to my team
entire roster right so I could tell the
wrestlers are you okay and I have one
moment in this moment it was a defining
moment I could either tell him melt and
done he’d give the signal matches over
or let’s keep going
and again this is a little takeaway for
you guys if you ever have this moment
I’m sure you have to be have it it’s
coming we have this decision
I said no let’s keep going I said how
much time is up he’s like thirty two
minutes rest of the whole match
good move doing everything like this I’m
getting scared because I’m thinking man
well what happens if I if I if I pinch
something or something like you know I
don’t know your mind starts fucking with
you in the moment there’s eighty five
thousand people your Adrenaline’s
rushing man what happens we’re going to
lose my leg or some shit like this if
I’ve just done something to my artery
final move of the match is his big
finishing move and I remember I’m
getting up and I’m turning like this
because I have to fall into him he’s
gonna hit me with his big finisher it’s
like a massive suplex where I go over
his head and fuck it and slams me down
and I remember turning I remember
turning into John and I remember
thinking myself god please don’t let
this be too bad just take care of me
take care of me
bang I feel boom
now lucky read matches later he pins
behind you comes in the back get to the
back I can’t move now get a little
nervous doctors come in don’t know
what’s happening get on a jet rushed
home to my doctors there in Florida and
in MRI find out that I have completely
torn my adductor the top of my my a
doctor and my top of my quad off my
pelvis yes really really fucked up what
I was proud of was to walk out on my own
but not only that but in this fucking
moment where the odds are against you
people are watching teams depending on
you you either say I’m done or this shit
whatever the fuck is going on
it’s temporary and it made fuck me up at
some point down the road but I’m not
gonna let this opportunity go by without
giving it
[Music]
hold on to that fundamental quality of
faith have faith and on the other side
of your pain is something good
[Music]
you
