The Rock and Roman Reigns defeated Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 40 Saturday and The Great One trained with Gallus to prepare for his in-ring return. With that in mind, Gallus actually thought they were getting ribbed when they were told they would train The Rock.
While speaking to MuscleManMalcolm, Joe Coffey revealed that Gallus initially thought it was a rib when they were told theyd be training The Rock for WrestleMania 40. He recalled sitting in the gym with Mark Coffey when they got the news.
Coffey said his parents had just arrived the night before for a ten-day visit, and the plan that day was to get in a quick workout before heading to the Performance Center for strength and conditioning training.
While they were at the gym, they received a message from Matt Bloom, telling them to pack their bags because they were going to train The Rock. Given their friendly relationship with Bloom, they assumed he was ribbing them.
At first, Coffey didnt believe it, thinking there was no way it could be true. He was also frustrated because he had just spent around $600 on Universal Studios tickets for himself, Mark, his parents, and his girlfriend at the time. He knew he wouldnt get a refund.
They decided to reply to Bloom to check if he was serious, and to their surprise he confirmed it wasnt a rib. Therefore, they wrapped up their session, went home, and packed their bags.
The Rock sent Gallus aspecial gift for helping him train for his in-ring return. Regardless, fans will always feel Gallus truly helped The Rock get into the best in-ring shape possible for WrestleMania 40 and no one can take it away from them.
